100 ways to trick a boy into going to sleep

Chapter 473 Slowly, Slowly

"No." He pursed his lips awkwardly.

However, the Shenhuan Pearl representing Cheng Shiqiu suddenly felt a burning sensation.

The lines on her face seemed to have spread out a little more.

She rubbed against his neck in a good mood, feeling the power coursing through her veins and bones.

Cheng Shiqiu didn't know why she was suddenly so happy, but he still appreciated the little girl's dependence on him.

Her arms unconsciously tightened, revealing her slender, boneless waist beneath her palms.

A sense of satisfaction welled up in his heart for no reason, and at the same time, even more hope surged forth. He simply couldn't control that feeling of anticipation.

"How about we live together off-campus when we go to college?"

"Are you also taking the exam in Beijing?" Wasn't Cheng Shiqiu going abroad for further studies?

The top music conservatories abroad are a better fit for him than those in China.

"Hmm, I don't want a long-distance relationship with you. You like small animals, but you find them troublesome, right? I'll take care of them. You like camellias, so we'll grow them on our balcony. I'll pick you up from school early after class, and you can come to see me if you finish class early too. Oh, and I'll also install a snack room for you. We can store as much as you want to buy at the supermarket." The boy gently smoothed her long hair behind her ear with one hand, his movements extremely tender.

If he hadn't been dating her, Cheng Shiqiu would definitely have gone abroad.

After all, he could never give up music in his life, so going away to study was an inevitable path. But after being with her…...

Cheng Shiqiu genuinely wanted a future with her.

But once I go abroad, there are too many factors that can change during those few years.

It's not that he doesn't believe in the feelings between the two of them; he's just afraid to take the risk.

"But haven't you always wanted to apply to Juilliard School?"

She frowned slightly.

While enjoying her romance, Cheng Shiqiu remained clear-headed. It wasn't a secret among the students that she was preparing materials for the Juilliard School.

She does enjoy the absolute passion of being in a relationship, but there's no need to burn herself out to accommodate others. Tolerance and compromise should be moderate and not affect the overall situation.

"I'm not going. Schools in China aren't necessarily worse than those abroad." But Jin Huan didn't show any joy or happiness when she heard Cheng Shiqiu's answer.

"Qiuqiu, your future is your own. Don't change your future plans and dreams for anyone else. It's not worth it and there's no need for it."

She spoke earnestly.

"I just added you to my plans."

He emphasized this somewhat stubbornly.

The young girl frowned and sat down to one side. After a long while, she sighed softly. When she looked up again, her eyes were full of seriousness: "Compared to Cheng Shiqiu, who gave up better opportunities for love, I prefer you, who may shine brightly in the future. Although schools in China are not necessarily worse than those abroad, Juilliard School is the starting point of your dream that you have been persisting in. A mature boy should not easily change his dreams. Qiuqiu, love and affection should make people better and better. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Too many people like you, I'm scared." Before Cheng Shiqiu could finish speaking, she interrupted him with a smile, her eyes curving like little crescent moons, looking extremely beautiful: "If you stay by my side, will fewer people like me?"

That statement doesn't seem to make any mistake...

"But."

"Okay, no more 'buts,' don't be stubborn."

She smiled and leaned in to kiss him on the cheek.

"Smack!"—a pretty loud kiss!

Cheng Shiqiu's eyes held a complex mix of emotions; it was hard to tell whether he was convinced or not. After a moment of silence, he simply asked a question.

If I leave, will you break up with me?
