The Leng Family.
The system's prompt tone was something Gu Yan could no longer pay attention to.
At this very moment, his mind was entirely occupied by the image of Leng Qingqiu.
That's why, he thought, liking a pastry would add 100,000 points. It wasn't because of the pastry itself!
It was because of him!
Feeling Leng Qingqiu in his arms, Gu Yan couldn't help but sigh. What's there to be shy about, Qingqiu?
Liking me isn't something to be ashamed of.
Thinking this, Gu Yan tightened his embrace, wanting to say it outright. But when the words reached his lips, his voice still trembled with nervousness: "Qingqiu... I've understood. I know everything now."
Leng Qingqiu was still savoring the warmth of the moment when Gu Yan's words made her tense up.
Know? Know what?
Had her identity as the leader of the Night Organization been exposed?
Was it because Mei Xue, who had been placed by her side to protect Gu Yan, had been discovered? So the organization had been exposed?
Did Gu Yan know everything she had done?
So, what was the situation now? Gu Yan knew what she had done, yet he still chose to hold her like this. Why?
Could it be that... even knowing what she had done, Gu Yan still wanted to be with her?
A sudden surge of emotion welled up in Leng Qingqiu's heart. If that were the case... Gu Yan... you...
Leng Qingqiu leaned against Gu Yan's chest, her expression complicated: "You know everything? Then why are you still willing to come back?"
She spoke with great tension, wanting to hear Gu Yan say it himself.
Because that way... perhaps, she could face her feelings for Gu Yan.
Hearing this, Gu Yan placed his hands on Leng Qingqiu's shoulders and gently turned her to face him.
"Qingqiu..."
Gu Yan took a deep breath.
Thump! Thump!
Leng Qingqiu's heart raced with anxiety. He was about to say it... the words were about to come out.
If Gu Yan really said it, then she... what would she do?
Though she hated to admit it, she realized that she might indeed feel more comfortable being with Gu Yan.
Leng Qingqiu's heart pounded with tension, and the next second, she heard Gu Yan say:
"I understand your feelings for me! Qingqiu! You really do love me, don't you!"
Gu Yan shouted nervously, everything had become clear to him. The system's prompts, combined with his inner turmoil.
Yes! Leng Qingqiu! She liked him!
But because she was too shy!
So! He had to help Qingqiu express her true feelings!
Leng Qingqiu's inner expression: Ծ‸Ծ
No!
I was waiting for you to say something like————Even if you're the leader of the Night Organization, I still want to be with you!
Something like that, but this isn't what I was expecting at all!
Leng Qingqiu's expression and mood immediately calmed down. She interrupted Gu Yan's excited speech: "Wait a moment, what you said you know everything..."
"Isn't it just that I like you?"
Gu Yan nodded: "Yes, although it might make me sound very narcissistic."
"But!"
Gu Yan grabbed Leng Qingqiu's hands and held them in his palms, looking deeply into her eyes: "I can be very sure that Qingqiu, you like me."
"And the reason why! Is because the turmoil in my heart keeps reminding me!!"
"In just these two days when I was away, Qingqiu, you felt incredibly lonely!!"
"If emotions could be materialized! It would be something like [Ah~ I really want Gu Yan~ I really want Gu Yan to be with me]."
With that,
Bang!
"I'm not lonely at all!!"
"Don't say such lewd things with such a serious tone!"
Leng Qingqiu, as if her secret had been exposed, became extremely embarrassed. She twisted her slender waist and delivered a side kick that sent Gu Yan flying.
"Ugh!"
Gu Yan was sent flying onto the sofa in the study.
Looking up in shock at Leng Qingqiu, wait, wasn't I supposed to be a congenital?
How did I get kicked away with just one kick?
Of course, the main issue wasn't that. The important thing was!
Gu Yan raised his hand, trying to reach out to Leng Qingqiu: "Qingqiu! Listen to me! Maybe my wording was a bit off, but don't you have even a little bit of affection for me?"
He looked at Leng Qingqiu stubbornly.
Even though the system had already told him that Leng Qingqiu liked him, Gu Yan insisted————
I just want to hear Qingqiu say "Hubby, I love you" with her own mouth! Is that so hard?!
Gu Yan understood that Leng Qingqiu in this state was just too shy or considering many factors, so she didn't want to admit these feelings.
But! Gu Yan wouldn't give up! Until he heard "Hubby, I love you"! I won't stop!
Hearing Gu Yan's question, Leng Qingqiu's body stiffened.
She clenched her fists tightly, trying her best to appear calm, but Gu Yan still noticed something unusual.
That was! Her ears had turned red!
"Saying... such strange and foolish things..."
"Just like that time in the bathroom, you suddenly asked me that question."
Leng Qingqiu suppressed the shame in her heart and walked calmly to the sofa where Gu Yan was.
Then.
Bang!
She leaned down, her hands slapping the sides of Gu Yan's face on the sofa.
Her hair fell down, cascading over Gu Yan's cheeks.
Leng Qingqiu's heart raced, but on the surface, she said calmly: "Do you really want to hear me say I like you that much?"
"You're really a spoiled brat, thinking that if I say I like you, it means I truly like you?"
"Fine... if saying this will make you happy for a whole day... then I'll fulfill your perverted wish."
Staring at the heavenly beauty so close, Gu Yan was momentarily stunned.
Gulp.
Gu Yan subconsciously swallowed.
Is... is she going to say it?
Although the atmosphere is a bit strange.
Thump! Thump!
The sounds in the study gradually quieted down.
The intense heartbeat echoed in the ears of both.
Not my heartbeat, not my heartbeat.
Leng Qingqiu self-comforted in her heart. Then, under Gu Yan's expectant gaze,
Leng Qingqiu's lips moved slightly, her voice calm yet trembling as it reached Gu Yan's ears: "I like you, but only a little bit."
"I'm saying this just to fulfill your wish, so don't misunderstand anything."
