Chapter 14: Did I Steal the Scene? Looking at the scene before him, the first floor of Lin Real Estate had fallen into a bizarre and awkward situation.
A man with his arm bandaged and his head looking like a mess was waiting on the side for his moment to heroically save the damsel in distress. On the other side, Chen Fan had hidden a bouquet of flowers behind his back.
As for Lin Qingyue, who had just walked out of the elevator, she was wearing a white dress, her eyes filled with arrogance.
Chen Fan wanted to leave; he felt like he had come at the wrong time. Today wasn’t the right day to confess, and he didn’t want to get humiliated. Even the male protagonist was stumbling through.
Turning around, he started sneaking out.
Lin Qingyue stood there for a while before saying, “Chen Fan, stop right there.”
Chen Fan halted his steps. Turning back, he awkwardly said, “Xiaoyue, long time no see. I missed you so much.”
Lin Qingyue asked, “Why did you try to leave when you saw me?”
“I wasn’t … leaving, I just suddenly remembered something urgent. I thought I should head back first.”
Lin Qingyue quickly strode up to Chen Fan.
Face to face, she stared at him.
“Then what’s with the flowers you’re holding?”
“Ah … the flowers.”
Chen Fan took a deep breath.
“Xiaoyue, I like you.”
With that, he took out the bouquet.
Lin Qingyue stared at Chen Fan, not saying a word, just glaring, her eyes filled with pride and anger.
For a moment, there were no lines.
The main issue was that Chen Fan had never encountered such a wildly unpredictable female lead, and he suddenly forgot what he was supposed to say.
“Bro, come on, say something, keep going!”
Ye Aotian also felt a bit awkward. What would it mean if he stepped in right now?
“And then?”
Lin Qingyue threw Chen Fan a lifeline.
Chen Fan quickly picked it up and said, “I like you. You’re the star in the sky, the eternal sun in my heart. I’ve liked you since we were young, and I’ve been waiting for you all these years. Please, be my girlfriend, won’t you?”
Finally, he remembered his lines.
Chen Fan’s eyes were filled with deep affection, as if he could melt a person with just his gaze. Even he was getting lost in the emotion.
Lin Qingyue’s face flushed slightly.
?????
“You … really waited for me all this time?”
[*the pronouns here aren’t wrong. It’s just a funny expression.]
“Yes, I’ve been waiting for you. Every day, I think about you, hoping for your return. I know my family has put pressure on yours, but I hope you can understand my love for you.”
“I see.” Lin Qingyue nodded.
Chen Fan watched as Lin Qingyue took the bouquet from his hands.
He was overjoyed inside.
Chen Fan closed his eyes.
He was ready.
In the next second, the flowers would slap him in the face, and then he would have to shamelessly persist.
But after keeping his eyes closed for a long time, the flowers never came.
Chen Fan opened his eyes and saw Lin Qingyue standing there silently.
“I … feel a bit flattered. I didn’t expect you to wait for me so long.”
“We were so young back then, just playing around, but I’m sorry. I don’t want to be in a relationship. I want to focus more on my career. You deserve someone better.”
“So, are you rejecting me?”
Lin Qingyue said, “I think we can start as friends and get to know each other again.”
Chen Fan suddenly reached out, pulling Lin Qingyue into his arms, saying, “I don’t want to be your friend. I want you to be my bride, my lover, my wife.”
Lin Qingyue was startled.
She never expected Chen Fan to make a move.
Ye Aotian was dumbfounded too.
But Lin Qingyue didn’t resist, nor did she struggle, she just let herself be held. Seaʀᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Without hesitation, Chen Fan kissed her.
At that moment, time seemed to stop.
