Chapter 138 Qin Zhao the Coward

Qin Zhao disliked this atmosphere, or perhaps he was simply not used to it.

She wanted to dispel this feeling, but the words, "Then you didn't care about me much either," were just on the tip of her tongue.

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the red string tied around his wrist. Her eyelashes fluttered, and she turned her face away.

Shen Yanci: "I won't say those mushy things anymore."

Qin Zhao forced himself to remain quiet and continue listening to him.

"You helped me get my crutch back from Lin Shi and treated me to a meal. You said you didn't like chicken legs, but your face was full of happiness while you were eating them, which made me feel happy too."

Qin Zhao: "If you want to watch mukbang videos, you can find them online."

"..."

Shen Yanci raised his hand and pinched her cheek. The touch of his fingertips was so delicate that he forgot everything he was thinking as he pinched her cheek.

Qin Zhao pointed at his hand: "Are you trying to touch me inappropriately?"

"..."

Shen Yanci chuckled, but his gaze fell downwards, as if suppressing some emotion, before moving back up to her eyes: "If you interrupt me again, I'll kiss you."

"..."

Qin Zhao's eyes widened suddenly, and he tilted his head back, putting distance between himself and Qin Zhao.

Shen Yanci's Adam's apple bobbed, his gaze shifted, and he exhaled.

Half a minute passed without him saying a word.

Qin Zhao moved her wrist, her light eyes glancing at him uncertainly: "Are you finished?"

"..."

Shen Yanci laughed in exasperation. The moment she interrupted him, his mind went blank, and all the words he had drafted countless times vanished in an instant.

He had only one thought in his mind: he wanted to kiss her.

I really want to kiss her.

His gaze was intense, and he lowered his eyelids to her lips, gradually increasing the pressure on his wrist.

Qin Zhao seemed to sense something, her eyelashes trembling, and she took a shallow breath: "No."

Shen Yanci tilted his head back, his prominent Adam's apple appearing even sharper, bobbing up and down with his breath.

The temperature at her wrist seemed even higher; Qin Zhao felt the heat and struggled a couple of times.

Shen Yanci gripped the ground even tighter, his voice a little hoarse: "Don't move."

Qin Zhao listened for two seconds, then looked at him and said, "It's uncomfortable for you to hold me like that."

Shen Yanci's Adam's apple bobbed, and he relaxed a little. Her skin was cool to the touch, and it felt very comfortable to him. "Give me two minutes. I forgot my lines."

"..."

Qin Zhao: "How about we talk about it next time?"

Shen Yanci looked at her with half-closed eyes and accused, "Qin Zhao, you are very bad to me."

"..."

Do you want to see who's controlling whom?

If you didn't open your eyes and look around!

Qin Zhao stared at his locked wrist with a lump in his throat, the spot gradually warming up to someone else's body temperature.

“And when you held me and cried,” Shen Yanci suddenly said, “when you pretended to be innocent while playing pranks on Lin, and when you persistently tried to start a fire with batteries.”

"When you hooked your finger around mine on Nanyin Island."

Qin Zhao looked at him with great surprise; he hadn't fallen asleep!

“There were many other times.” Shen Yanci lowered his eyelids. “I didn’t know that was liking someone, but when I saw you laughing and talking close to your classmate in front of you, Xia Yaoyao, Fang Tian, ​​and even Lin Shi and that guy who plays basketball, I was so jealous I was going crazy.”

“I don’t know if you like boys or girls, but I’m jealous of both.” He looked at her. “I knew my feelings for you had changed not long after I returned from Nanyin Island.”

"It wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision, nor was it a moment of confusion. Before you saw this feeling, I went through countless self-examinations, suppressions, and future planning."

"Whether you like it or not is unimportant. What's important to me is this."

Shen Yanci stared intently at her. "Qin Zhao, I like you. When I see you, you're all I can think about, and eventually, you're the one I love. I like you, Qin Zhao!"

His gaze was direct and intense, burning her with the heat emanating from her wrist.

The night wind blew, swirling up the petals on the ground, which floated low in the air.

"Zhaozhao," his voice was gentle, "don't you really like me?"

Qin Zhao subconsciously looked at her wrist and found it empty. Her mouth was slightly open, and she was breathing in small breaths, like a fish about to drown in his eyes.

It's like the instructions somewhere in my brain have gone awry, saying "No, no what?"

she does not know.

Her heart was racing, and she felt like she was going to die. She didn't like that feeling.

Shen Yanci raised his hand to touch her face, his voice slightly trembling: "Why are you shaking?"

Shen Yanci is very bad.

Qin Zhao uttered three words with difficulty and mechanically: "No."

Shen Yanci's eyes darkened slightly, but he ultimately did not place his hand on it.

The two stared at each other, and Qin Zhao suddenly looked down at his wrist: "It's you who's shaking."

Shen Yanci also looked at his hands: "Yeah, I'm shaking. It's my first time confessing, I'm a little nervous."

Please forgive me.

"Qin Zhao."

"Shen Yanci".

Two voices rang out at the same time, and Shen Yanci spoke first: "You go first."

Qin Zhao raised his eyes slightly: "Do you like boys or girls?"

"like you."

"..."

Qin Zhao: "I'm very serious."

"I'm serious too."

"..."

Shen Yanci curled her lips slightly: "I've never liked anyone else. That answer should be obvious by now."

It's obviously a joke.

"You've never liked another girl?"

Shen Yanci shook his head.

"You've never liked any other guys?"

He shook his head again.

Shen Yanci: "I know what you're worried about, and I'm serious. I know that even in today's diverse society, minority groups still face a lot of pressure. I've thought it through before I'm being honest with myself."

I know you might be scared, but we can take it slowly. Britain is very tolerant of these kinds of things; it's normal, so you don't need to feel too much pressure.

"..."

Qin Zhao was at his wit's end, unsure of which matter to consider first.

Shen Yanci was completely unaware, his brows relaxed as he stared intently at her with a smile.

He was already good-looking, with naturally deep, affectionate eyes; when he looked at someone like that, it was practically seduction.

Qin Zhao: "Can you please stop looking at me like that?"

Shen Yanci smiled and said, "My eyes like you."

Qin Zhao pursed his lips: "Why do you keep saying things like that? Would you dare say that in front of Lin Shi?"

"I dare," Shen Yanci replied quickly, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "Can we make it official?"

"..."

He reached for his phone, but Qin Zhao quickly stopped him, saying, "Are you crazy!"

Shen Yanci: "You're not asking me if I dare. I dare, but do you dare?"

"Don't dare."

"Qin Zhao is a coward."

"..."

Qin Zhao scoffed, "You've been drinking fake alcohol, haven't you?"

“I didn’t drink any alcohol, smell it.” He said, leaning closer, but Qin Zhao pushed his face away. He wasn’t annoyed, instead, he smiled casually, “Oh, I had a little red wine.”

As he spoke, he turned his head and pressed his lips to her palm: "I brushed my teeth."

"..."
