Chapter 1111 - 55: And You Still Say You Don’t Like Me
Her sudden agitation made Qiao Anlu blink in surprise, and Lin Ji Yang quickly turned off his phone, awkwardly handing it back to her.
Zhao Anqi pushed him away and walked into the elevator, with Qiao Anlu following behind.
Lin Ji Yang stood at the elevator entrance, stunned for a few seconds, and then suddenly lowered his head and laughed.
As he walked towards his room, he texted Zhao Anqi: See you at the back door at ten tonight, don’t stand me up!
At ten o’clock sharp, Lin Ji Yang arrived. This time Zhao Anqi didn’t mess with him and was ready to go, as Lin Ji Yang’s car was already parked at the door, "Get in!"
"Where are we going so late? I’ve got things to do. If you’ve got nothing important, I’ll head back first."
"There’s something important I need to ask you. I promise to get you back before the dorm doors close. Besides, I’m cautious not to get caught by reporters, I wouldn’t act recklessly."
Zhao Anqi nodded hesitantly before getting in the car.
As soon as the car started moving, Zhao Anqi asked, "If this is about the video from last time, you can relax. I won’t use it to ride on your fame."
Lin Ji Yang just smiled and stayed silent.
The car stopped by the riverbank, which was nearly deserted during the day but quite crowded at night.
Why would he come here now that he’s gained some fame?
Fortunately, he had chosen a secluded spot.
Facing each other, Zhao Anqi asked, "Didn’t you say it was something important? Now that I’m about to debut, what are we doing here?"
In the distance, they could see couples scattered along the shore.
"It is about the video," Lin Ji Yang said directly, still smiling as if something delightful was at play.
"I already said..."
"Zhao Anqi, do you like me?"
Zhao Anqi snapped her head up to look at him, holding the stare for a few seconds before saying, "How could that be? If you came here just to ask such a trivial question, I’m really leaving. Have you forgotten Mr. Ning’s warning and your promise to me?"
"But, Zhao Anqi, you said you wouldn’t release the video, but you never mentioned deleting it." Lin Ji Yang smiled, looking at her.
A sharp pang hit Zhao Anqi’s heart, "I... I’ll delete it as soon as I get back."
"I heard from Qiao Anlu that your phone only stores important things because of its limited memory..." He leaned closer, gazing down at Zhao Anqi, "And you still claim you don’t like me?"
Zhao Anqi suddenly felt at a loss, even though she had managed to stay calm when facing her foster father who wanted to sell her and President Zhang who wanted to buy her. Yet at this moment, she was utterly flustered.
"Zhao Anqi, you do like me, don’t you? Do you know how happy I was when I realized it? All these days, trying to pretend to avoid you, I realized I was truly crazy about you. Dammit, even on the runway, my mind is full of your image. Zhao Anqi, I admit I used to be a good-for-nothing jerk, but believe me, I am serious about you. If you give me a chance, I’ll be a good boyfriend. If you’re worried about Ning Zesheng finding out and ruining your career, we can act like strangers in public until we both make it big. Then, it’s up to you whether we go public or not. You once asked if I would just fool around and end up marrying you. I can’t predict the future, but right now, I just want to be with you forever! I’ve seriously thought about it all afternoon, considered many possibilities..."
The only thing I didn’t consider was her refusal!
At this moment, Lin Ji Yang looked at her with deep anticipation.
