Leng Zexi looked at her incredulous expression and nodded slightly in affirmation.

He said softly, "Gu Xingchen and I share a deep resentment. I regret not revealing my true feelings to you sooner. If I had told you earlier, perhaps you wouldn't have been hurt by Zhou Mufan."

After saying that, Leng Zexi hugged her tightly in his arms and said affectionately, "Fortunately, you finally became my wife. I swear, in this life, I will use practical actions to prove that I will never let you regret choosing me."

Hearing this, Xia Ruoan felt like she was in a dream and couldn't believe it was real. She widened her eyes and asked in astonishment, "You actually like me? And it started a long time ago?"

Leng Zexi nodded heavily and replied, "Yes, I have had feelings for you for a long time. When I learned that you and Zhou Mufan were together, my heart was broken.

At that time, I tried to find you, but from your eyes, I could see that you truly loved him, so I could only leave sadly, go to a foreign country, and try hard to let go of this relationship and treat you as my own sister.

After a brief pause, Leng Zexi continued, "Later, when your good friend Xu Nanyi went to the bar to ask Zhou Mufan for an explanation, Ouyang Lan learned that you two had broken up and informed me immediately.

After learning about this, I didn't hesitate and rushed back that same day. Because I thought, I can't miss you again this time.

"And that time I saved you in the bar, it wasn't a coincidence, I deliberately followed you there.

That day, when I just walked to the school gate, I happened to see you walking out of the school and getting on a bus. I followed you and saw you and your classmates go in.

"Actually, I originally planned to wait until your party with your classmates was over before looking for you. But I never expected that I would actually encounter you in danger.

At that moment, I had only one thought in my mind - thank goodness! I was so thankful that I got back in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

Hearing this, Xia Ruoan was completely at a loss. He stood there in a daze as if he had been cast under a spell. His mind was blank and he couldn't think of any words to respond to him.

After a while, Leng Zexi seemed to notice Xia Ruoan's embarrassment and helplessness, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's not dwell on this for now, let's go in and start breeding.

After all, we still have a long time to go, and the future is full of infinite possibilities. So, I am not in a hurry at all, and I am willing to wait slowly until one day you really like me. "

Leng Zexi said this very sincerely. He was really not in a hurry for success, because he firmly believed that as long as he worked hard, he would be able to win Xia Ruoan's heart one day.

At this moment, Xia Ruoan, although still a little confused in her heart, looked at the man in front of her who was holding her hand tightly.

She bit her lip unconsciously, and finally mustered up the courage to look up at him and say, "Brother Leng, I will try my best to like you. And to be honest, I don't think falling in love with you is a particularly difficult thing."

Hearing Xia Ruoan say this, Leng Zexi's face suddenly bloomed into a bright smile, his eyes flashing with excitement: "Great! Hearing you say such words is enough for me.

Next, I will definitely work even harder to win your sincere approval as soon as possible!"

When Xia Ruoan gently pushed open the door leading to the breeding room, she was stunned by the scene before her.

I saw Senior Brother Ouyang, who rarely came here on weekdays, standing there, busy with something intently.

This really surprised her, because usually, Senior Brother Ouyang would stay in the separate training room with the teacher and rarely chose to stay in the same room with everyone.

"Senior Brother Ouyang, why are you here?" Xia Ruoan was full of doubts, but asked without hesitation.

Upon hearing this, Senior Brother Ouyang stopped what he was doing and carefully picked aside the plants that he had carefully inspected and found to have problems.

Then he slowly stood up, took off his gloves, and with a gentle smile on his face, he looked at Xia Ruoan softly and said, "You're here. Actually, I came here today just to wait for you. I want to talk to you about something."

After hearing this, Xia Ruoan's eyes widened instantly and his heart skipped a beat.

These words sounded quite similar to what Gu Xingchen had said before. Could it be as she worried?

Thinking of this, Xia Ruoan's heart tightened, and he subconsciously glanced guiltily at Leng Zexi beside him.

At this moment, Leng Zexi happened to catch her slightly panicked and guilty look, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

As if seeing through Xia Ruoan's inner thoughts, Leng Zexi softly comforted her, "Don't be nervous. His love for you is not like Gu Xingchen's love between a man and a woman. It's just the love and care of a family member."

Xia Ruoan's heart tightened, and then he let out a long sigh.

The love between relatives, I think as senior and junior brothers and sisters, the friendship between them can really be regarded as family affection.

But how did Leng Zexi know all this?

At this moment, Ouyang keenly caught sight of Gu Xingchen in their conversation. Could it be that Xingchen had already confessed his feelings to Ruoan? Unfortunately, it seemed a step too late.

To be honest, Ouyang actually admires Gu Xingchen very much.

Not to mention his outstanding family background and excellent conditions, the fact that his major complements Ruoan's is enough to make people's eyes shine.

He was still very happy that they could be together. After all, Gu Xingchen really liked Ruoan, unlike Zhou Mufan, who was too greedy.

At this time, Ouyang turned his gaze to Ruoan and slowly said, "Ruoan, let me formally introduce myself again. I am not only your direct senior brother, but in terms of blood relationship, we are actually cousins. My grandfather is your father's uncle." After speaking, he looked at Ruoan with a smile, his eyes full of kindness.

"We are cousins, but I heard from my father that he has no relatives." It was obvious from Mr. Xia's side that his father did not want to recognize him.

What about the situation at her father's uncle's family? If they were good to her father, why had she never heard him mention it? She could feel Ouyang's care and love for her.
