Chapter 170: Long Yu’s Sincere Confession



Looking at Yao Ran's stubborn face, Long Yu sighed. He gently stroked her cheek and helplessly said, "Ran Ran, I will never hurt you."

Yao Ran frowned and said, "I know you won't hurt me."

In order to protect her, he even dared to sacrifice his own life. If someone told her that Long Yu would hurt her now, she wouldn't believe it.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Then why did you run away from me?" Long Yu asked, with a hint of grievance in his voice. Hearing this, Yao Ran raised her head and said, "I didn't! I-"

When her eyes met Long Yu's deep gaze, she couldn't continue what she wanted to say. As he said, she was afraid.

She was afraid of being betrayed again, of giving her heart to anyone else, and of getting hurt again.

Seeing the redness in the corner of her eyes, Long Yu decided not to force his feelings onto her and took two steps back.

He clenched his hands tightly, took a deep breath, and solemnly said, "Ran Ran, I love you. I just want you to give me a chance. Give us both a chance to create a future together. Can you grant me this wish?"

Listening to his confession, Yao Ran's heart skipped a beat. He had told her how he felt many times before, but she always pretended not to understand because she knew she was afraid their relationship would change.

But now, facing his sincere heart, she couldn't bear to pretend to be stupid and hurt him. Yao Ran's heart trembled under his gaze, and she quickly lowered his head. Long Yu's eyes never left her, but Yao Ran didn't dare to look at him.

She lowered her eyes and asked, "Can you give me time to think about it?"

Long Yu knew what she had experienced in her previous life, so he won't force her to accept his feelings. Since she said she would think about it, Long Yu was satisfied. At least she wasn't playing dumb anymore.

He smiled and nodded, "Alright. But you need to give me a time limit."

When Yao Ran heard this, she almost tripped over her own feet. She turned to look at him speechlessly.

"..." Have you forgotten that I am your neighbor? There's not even five meters between your apartment and mine.

Although she thought so in her heart, Yao Ran didn't say anything and followed Long Yu out.

When they left Long Yu's apartment, Huang Zhihui and Deng Qiqi were still breaking the frost in the corridor. When they saw Long Yu's bright smile, the two thought that they must be blind because they were looking for the snow every day.

Long Yu ignored Huang Zhihui and Deng Qiqi, who looked at him in horror and happily sent Yao Ran back to her apartment.

Before Yao Ran closed the door, he held the door and reminded her again, "Ran Ran, remember to give me an answer in three days."

Yao Ran nodded and closed the door. Long Yu was in a good mood and returned to his apartment with a smile on his lips.

When he saw Huang Zhihui and Deng Qiqi looking at him in shock, he patted their shoulders and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

After saying that, he went back home happily. When the door of Unit 2002 was closed, Huang Zhihui and Deng Qiqi felt that their legs had lost strength.

The two looked at each other, and then Huang Zhizhi asked tremblingly, "Did you see that?"

Deng Qiqi nodded, "Yes..."

They swallowed in fear, looked at the door of unit 2002 for a moment, then quickly picked up their tools and ran back home while screaming in horror, "Elder Sister Jia Xiang!"

Yao Ran didn't know what was happening outside. She went back to her bedroom and turned on the floor heating and the heater in a daze. The temperature rose, and she felt hot, so she took off her thick Arctic clothing and equipment.

Sitting on the bed, she patted her flushed cheeks, looked at the thermometer hanging on the wall, which showed minus fifteen degrees, and muttered in confusion, "Why is it so hot today? Has the extreme cold ended early?"
