On the way home, we each had our own thoughts and remained silent.
After arriving home, just as I was about to get out of the car, he suddenly grabbed my arm.
"What are you doing?" I looked at him warily.
He stared at me without saying a word.
"You..." I was about to say something when he suddenly leaned in and kissed my lips.
I widened my eyes in disbelief as I looked at him.
He kissed me so intensely that I could barely breathe.
His tongue pried open my lips and teeth, taking what it wanted.
I felt weak all over from his kiss and could only lean against him for support.
I don't know how long it lasted, but he finally let me go.
I leaned against him, gasping for breath.
"You..." I lifted my head to look at him, "What's wrong with you?"
"I'm sorry," he said softly.
"Ah?" I was taken aback.
"I'm sorry," he looked at me, "It's my fault for not taking care of you."
"..." I looked at him, feeling a surge of emotion in my heart.
"Don't do such foolish things again," he said.
"Okay," I nodded.
"Don't worry," he ruffled my hair, "I won't let anything happen to your brother."
"Really?" I looked at him in surprise.
"Yes," he nodded.
"Thank you," I said gratefully.
"Silly," he smiled, "Why are you being so polite with me?"
"I..." I looked at him, hesitating to speak.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
"I..." I hesitated for a moment, "I want to ask you something."
"What is it?" he looked at me.
"You..." I bit my lip, "You are engaged to Chen Yun, right?"
"..." He fell silent for a moment, "Yes."
"Why?" I looked at him in confusion, "Don't you like her?"
"I..." He looked at me, "At that time, I was trying to help her."
"Help her?" I asked, confused.
"Yeah," he nodded. "Her mother is forcing her to go on blind dates, so I pretended to be her fiancé."
"..." I was stunned.
"Actually, she doesn't like boys," he continued.
"What?" I was shocked.
"She likes girls," he said.
"..." I widened my eyes, looking at him in disbelief.
"So, don't think too much about it," he said. "There's really nothing between us."
"..." I looked into his eyes, feeling a wave of shock.
He actually told me this...
He looked at me with gentle and firm eyes.
I felt my face flush and my heart race as I hurriedly looked down.
"Xiao Lin," he suddenly called me.
"Ah?" I looked up at him.
"Actually..." he hesitated for a moment, "there's something I've always wanted to tell you."
"What is it?" I asked, puzzled.
"I..." he looked at me, "I like you."
"..." I was frozen in place.
"I..." he bit his lip, "actually, I liked you the first time I saw you."
"You..." I looked at him in disbelief, "when did you see me?"
"At Chen Yun's funeral," he said.
"..." I was stunned again.
"I fell in love with you at first sight," he said.
"..." I stared at him, unable to speak.
"I thought to myself, how could there be such a beautiful girl," he smiled, "so I've been secretly watching you."
"..." I looked at him, feeling a rush of sweetness inside.
So he liked me too.
"When you fainted that time, I took you to the hospital," he continued, "I realized that I couldn't control my feelings any longer."
"..." I looked at him, feeling flustered inside.
"So, I decided to marry you," he looked at me, "I thought that only by being with you could I restrain myself."
"..." I lowered my head, not daring to look at him.
“Xiao Lin,” he called my name.
“Hmm,” I replied softly.
“You…” he hesitated for a moment, “do you want to be with me?”
“…” I looked at him, feeling a mix of emotions inside.
“If you don’t want to, I won’t force you,” he said, “I just want you to be happy.”
“…” I gazed into his eyes, feeling my heart soften.
“So…” he paused, “will you?”
“…” I looked at him, feeling a wave of sweetness.
“Xiao Lin,” he urged.
“I…” I hesitated for a moment, “I will.”
“Really?” He looked at me with surprise.
“Yeah,” I nodded.
“Great!” He excitedly pulled me into his arms.
I leaned against his chest, listening to the strong beat of his heart, feeling a sense of satisfaction.
So, he liked me too.
…
“By the way,” I suddenly remembered something, “when did you start liking me?”
“…” He was silent for a moment, “From the first time you stood up for Chen Yun, I liked you.”
“…” I was taken aback.
“You were really brave back then,” he smiled.
“I…” I lowered my head, feeling a wave of embarrassment.
“That’s why I decided to marry you,” he said with a smile, “I thought that only by being with you could I control myself.”
“…” I looked at him, feeling a rush of sweetness.
