75 Tough Journey

Zhi Ruo blushed at the direct confession and this time it was very apparent under the soft light of the lamp.

" I like you too... " Zhi Ruo timidly professed.

Wang Yong's entire being was enveloped in happiness as he heard her confession and he felt like he was on top of the world.

" Would you do me the honour of being my girlfriend with marriage in mind? " Wang Yong proclaimed as he expectingly looked into her eyes, his gaze overflowing with love.

" Please take care of me. " Zhi Ruo nodded and hugged him, burying her face in his neck.

" I am sorry, can you not look at my face right now, I am really embarrassed. " Zhi Ruo shyly said as her hold got tighter.

Wang Yong chuckled at her declaration and hugged her tight, " Thank you Ruoruo, I am so happy. "

" Hmm...Me too... " Zhi Ruo mumbled.

' Sigh...I made it through the storm... I can't believe the advice worked! I have to go give them a good review! I can't believe I successfully seduced the big boss!!! Aren't I too awesome?! '

Zhi Ruo giggled at her success.

" What are you laughing about? " Wang Yong heard her soft laughter and asked.

" Nothing..." Zhi Ruo responded, " I am just happy too. "

After calming herself down while Wang Yong patted her back, Zhi Ruo backed up and complained in a spoiled tone, " Do you even know how much effort I went through to seduce you? "

" Would you mind telling me? " Wang Yong chuckled at her spoiled voice.

" I started coming up with all kinds of plans to make you reveal the reason behind the hickeys on my neck and had to search up how to seduce a man... It was very embarrassing! " Zhi Ruo sulked.

Hearing the usual cold Zhi Ruo acting spoiled in front of him was heart shaking, how could she be so cute with him? He was about to die from her cuteness.

" So you knew they were hickeys? " Wang Yong smiled naughtily.

" Of course I knew! " Zhi Ruo answered.

" I thought you really didn't know. " Wang Yong patted her head.

" I wanted to make you confess your crime so I could force you to take responsibility but you acted so guiltless I was starting to lose hope... " Zhi Ruo pouted.

" I was scared that you would distance yourself from me if you knew. " Wang Yong gently explained.

" I wouldn't, I was trying hard to reveal your true feelings so I could pursue you... " Zhi Ruo added.

" Not that I didn't like it but you didn't need to seduce me. " Wang Yong smirked and pecked her soft cheek.

Zhi Ruo looked confused.

" I liked you from way before. To be more precise, I was the one that seduced you. " Wang Yong chuckled.

" I didn't know...since when? " Zhi Ruo inquired curiously.

" Since I regained a part of my memories. " Wang Yong confessed.

" I see... that makes sense... " Zhi Ruo nodded as she connected the dots together.

She was really dumb to not have realized sooner, the saying that love makes people dumber must be true.

They talked for a while more before Wang Yong forced her to sleep, " As much as I like you and want to continue talking to you, it's really late now so we have to sleep. You still have to work tomorrow morning. "

Zhi Ruo pouted but obediently listened to him and went under the blankets.

" Come here. " Wang Yong rested on his side and opened his embrace.

Zhi Ruo awkwardly shuffled to her side and buried herself in his hold.

" Goodnight, Ruoruo. " Wang Yong naturally kissed the top of her head and held her waist.

Zhi Ruo raised her head and sneaked a peek at Wang Yong before boldly pecking his cheek, " Goodnight. "

Wang Yong melted from her cute action and pecked her lips in return, " Hmm, sleep now. "

A nice atmosphere settled and Zhi Ruo suddenly spoke up, " You know...I missed sleeping with you... "

Wang Yong frowned, " Don't you dare say anything else, do you know how much self-control I have to refrain myself from attacking you? If you keep acting so cute, I won't hold back. "

Zhi Ruo laughed and nodded. That night, both of them happily fell asleep.

...

The next morning arrived really quickly and Zhi Ruo's internal clock caused her to wake up on time despite being tired. She opened her eyes and was instantly met with Wang Yong's handsome face that was smiling at her.

Shocked, Zhi Ruo backed up but Wang Yong held on to her waist, enabling her to back up too much.

" Good morning, Ruoruo. " Wang Yong kissed her smooth forehead.

" Good morning Wang Yong. " Zhi Ruo rubbed her eyes as she remembered everything that happened last night, it still felt like a dream to her.

" What time is it? " Zhi Ruo asked.

" Exactly 8 am. " Wang Yong answered, " You have to get up to prepare. I was about to call you. "

Zhi Ruo sulked at the thought of having to go to work even on the weekend and snuggled closer to Wang Yong, " I don't want to...I want to continue cuddling with you... "

Wang Yong sighed at her tempting confession, it was going to be a tough journey for him to restrain himself each time she says cute things...
