My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection-Chapter 471 - 033: I Like You 2
But Yun Qi listened to her words and was even more confused, having no idea what she meant, so he grabbed her again: "What do you mean? End what? Speak a little more clearly, I don’t quite understand what you’re saying."
Ye Lingran pursed her lips: "Fine, I’ll say it clearly once and for all. I want to end this fake relationship between us, I don’t want to continue it anymore, and I don’t want to lose myself for you again. Your kindness to me always gives me the wrong idea, always gives me the illusion that you really like me, do you know?"
Listening to her words with a hint of crying and the tears welling in her eyes, Yun Qi was stunned, feeling that her words were a bit nonsensical: "Fake relationship? Misunderstanding? Illusion? What are you talking about? When did I ever say we had a fake relationship?"
Ye Lingran was taken aback, her eyes widening in surprise as she looked at him. As she was astonished, Yun Qi, a little amused and helpless, raised his hand to pull her into his embrace: "What on earth have I done to make you have such a big misunderstanding and illusion? From the beginning of our time together, I’ve never said our relationship was fake, even publicly. No matter who asks, I’ve never denied it to anyone. I always introduce you as my girlfriend or fiancée."
Ye Lingran leaned in his arms, listening in a daze, but then suddenly thought of something, and sharply raised her head to push him away: "But... didn’t you just tell your dad that you didn’t plan to have an engagement party? If that’s the case, we should end things early!"
"You heard that?"
Ye Lingran averted her gaze: "Anyway, I’ve made things clear to you; from now on, we should see each other less! To avoid..."
She couldn’t bring herself to say the rest, ready to bow her head and flee, but how could Yun Qi just let her leave like that? She even said such things as "see each other less in the future," and if he didn’t clarify now, it might be impossible to explain tenfold later.
"Avoid what? Hmm?" Although this situation might not be suitable for joking, he couldn’t help but tease her. This shy and angry look was actually much cuter than her gentle and understanding demeanor, so he pulled her back into his arms, a strong smile in his gaze as he looked at her: "If you’re talking about the conversation with my dad this evening, then you’re really wrongly accusing me. I did say that to my dad, I didn’t plan to have an engagement party..." As soon as he finished saying this, the Ye Lingran in his arms started to struggle.
"Can you listen to me finish speaking, okay?" Yun Qi held her tightly, showing no intention of letting go: "I said that because I have my own plans. Actually, this idea came to me during Cen Jin’s wedding. I thought, if we have an engagement party, it might seem too cumbersome and time-consuming. So, I thought of simply canceling the engagement party step, and when we choose a better time, directly have the wedding. I didn’t tell you about this, that’s my mistake, but if you convict me directly because of this, then that’s your mistake, and you want to push me away without a word?"
Ye Lingran was a bit dizzy, the plot turned too fast, making her unsure how to react.
"Now do you understand? Still want to push me away?"
Ye Lingran was speechless, listening to his words full of teasing, she felt that her face was a bit untenable, awkwardly lowering her head, but her pride couldn’t lose, she reached out and pinched his waist hard, grumbling in discontent: "What’s there for you to gloat about? Who let you not make things clear before, do you know how insecure I’ve been for the past eight months? Every day guessing your thoughts, the two of us together were completely muddled, I couldn’t tell what’s real or fake. You’ve never once said clearly to me anything like you like me, and you’re still laughing at me now?" 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
Her words were spoken with justifiable conviction, just hearing them made him feel that she was indeed wronged, so as soon as her words fell, Yun Qi reached out to lift her chin, lowered his head, and kissed her crimson lips, tightening his hold on her waist and deepening the kiss.
This sudden kiss left Ye Lingran’s mind blank, and when she started to struggle for breath, Yun Qi left her lips, his nose touching hers, breathing lightly, his voice still gentle with a hint of ambiguity: "Can I say it now? Although it’s late, but... Ye Lingran, I like you. Will you be my girlfriend?"
