Chapter 457: I’m Very Happy Too
Translator: Zayn_ |
Jiang Zhihan was still his usual self. He looked calm and serious.
However, under the colorful fireworks, his face was not as sharp and appeared much gentler.
Song Qingyou’s eyes were like honey in his eyes.
The moment they looked at each other, Jiang Zhihan suddenly understood that love couldn’t be hidden. Even if he covered his mouth, it would still show in his eyes.
He didn’t intend to poke a hole in the thin layer of paperfl] between them.
– Because he put a layer of shackles on himself.
He would transform into a cat from time to time, so he couldn’t make any promises.
But now, Jiang Zhihan didn’t want to care about the shackles anymore.
His body tensed up, and his right thumb rubbed his index finger uneasily.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Zhihan decided to take a step forward.
“Do you want to hold hands?” he asked Song Qingyou.
Song Qingyou was stunned. She didn’t expect Jiang Zhihan to say that.
She really wanted to complain. This wasn’t a crowded market, so how could she be afraid of getting lost? Moreover, what did holding hands mean? Could it be that Jiang Zhihan had gotten used to being lifted by his paws after he turned into a cat?
However, Song Qingyou’s desire to ridicule Jiang Zhihan disappeared when she looked up and saw his eyes.
The surface of the lake, which was originally calm, seemed to be churning at this moment, reflecting emotions of restlessness, tension and apprehension. Song Qingyou reached out her hand.
Jiang Zhihan quickly grabbed her hand with a little more force.
Song Qingyou wanted to tease him, so she couldn’t help but use her fingertips to hook his palm.
Jiang Zhihan felt an itch in his heart. He subconsciously looked away and the tips of his ears started to turn red.
Seeing this, Song Qingyou’s desire to stir up trouble instantly gained the upper hand.
She caught him off guard and grabbed his wrist, pulling him down.
Jiang Zhihan was caught off guard as he bent down and almost bumped his nose into Song Qingyou’s face.
The latter stared at him with a half-smile, her eyes curved into crescents.
“Don’t you have anything else to say to me? Jiang Zhihan?”
“I-”
“Zhizhi?”
The fireworks had already finished.
The surroundings were silent.
Jiang Zhihan took a deep breath.
Then he heard himself say in a steady voice, “I like you.”
With the simple confession that followed, there was a bit of youthfulness that did not match his age.
Jiang Zhihan wasn’t someone who would run away.
He looked at Song Qingyou with a burning gaze, as if he wanted to observe all her reactions.
Song Qingyou tightened her grip on his wrist.
“Then should we try dating?”
“Ah?”
It was rare for Jiang Zhihan to be slow.
Do you want to try dating?” Song Qingyou repeated.
“You-”
“I have a good impression of you.” Song Qingyou smiled and said frankly, “But I don’t know how much I like you.”
“So, should we try dating?”
Jiang Zhihan’s brain was like a PC that had suddenly crashed. After the screen was filled with snowflakes, it was filled with the sound and image of fireworks.
Song Qingyou didn’t expect his reaction to be so big.
This made her want to tease him, but she couldn’t find the chance to do so.
She clenched her fist and brought it close to her mouth. She coughed lightly. “I thought that when you say you like someone, you mean you want to date them. Isn’t that right?”
Jiang Zhihan didn’t answer.
Instead, he pulled her into his arms.
The warm breath and the heartbeat that was close at hand made Song Qingyou stunned.
Then, she heard Jiang Zhihan’s deep voice in her ear, “I’m very happy today too.”
“Yes.”
Song Qingyou responded softly. She listened to Jiang Zhihan’s fast heartbeat and didn’t break free.
Buzz!
Buzz!
The vibration of a phone broke the silence.
Then, several voices came from downstairs.
“Qingyou-”
“Sister Qingyou-”
Obviously, Song Qingyou had been “missing” for too long and had been discovered by the people who were engrossed in the game and watching the fireworks.
Song Qingyou quickly broke free from his embrace and answered An Sui’s call. “Qingyou, where are you now? Uncle is looking for you everywhere. He said that it’s too late now and asked if you want to go back and rest.”
“I’m in the castle. I’ll be out soon.”
Song Qingyou hung up and left.
After taking two steps, she suddenly stopped. She turned around and grabbed
Jiang Zhihan’s hand, “Let’s go out first.”
Jiang Zhihan stood still.
Then, a familiar golden light flashed, and Song Qingyou’s hand became empty.
In its place was the familiar tabby cat.
Song Qingyou picked up the coat on the ground and reached out to the cat.
Jiang Zhihan raised his paw and pointed at the coat, indicating for her to put it on.
A girl and a cat came out of the castle and immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
An Sui looked back curiously. He was curious why Qingyou and Mr. Jiang went in together but didn’t come out together.
Song Xingye also looked behind Song Qingyou. He seemed to be relieved because he didn’t see anyone else, but in the blink of an eye, he saw his daughter wearing a suit jacket.
“Did Mr. Jiang lend you this jacket? Take it off first. If you’re cold, wear the one Dad’s wearing.”
Song Xingye said and was about to take off his coat.
“Mr. Jiang has already left,” Song Qingyou stopped him. “I don’t think I can return the coat. Let’s leave it at that.”
“Left early?” An Sui’s head was full of question marks. Why didn’t he see anyone walking towards the elevator?
“Maybe he had an urgent meeting.” Song Qingyou winked at him.
“Oh, that’s right. Mr. Jiang must be very busy.”
Jiang Xuyan looked at them and helped to change the topic. “So Zhizhi is here.
Why didn’t I see him just now?”
“Brother Jiang,” Song Qingyou said. “It’s not like you don’t know. Zhizhi often runs out alone. I don’t know where he hid before.”
The cruise ship is about to dock. We needed to find Zhizhi.” Jiang Xuyan smiled. “Qingyou went in there just now to look for him, right?”
Song Qingyou nodded.
She wasn’t stupid, so she knew that Jiang Xuyan saw that Song Xingye’s expression wasn’t right, so he gave her a legitimate excuse.
As expected, after hearing their conversation, Song Xingye’s expression became much better.
I heard from Director An that the crew is on holiday tomorrow. Qingyou, if you’re not busy tomorrow, why don’t you stay at my place today?” Song Xingye said, “I’ve already arranged a room for you.”
Song Qingyou nodded in agreement.
The group of people parted ways at the dock.
As the host, Song Qingyou only followed Song Xingye back after seeing everyone off.
It was very quiet in the car along the way.
Song Xingye glanced at the cat his daughter was holding from time to time.
If he remembered correctly, the color of the cat’s eyes was the same as Jiang Zhihan’s.
He remembered that he was in Jiang Zhihan’s private hospital when he woke up and that Qingyou seemed to be in close contact with him.
Song Xingye had mixed feelings, but he refrained from asking about their relationship.

It just so happened that Song Qingyou didn’t really want to mention it.
After all, they had just started dating and had yet to meet their parents.
Only Jiang Zhihan vaguely sensed that Song Xingye didn’t want Qingyou to interact with him.
