Qi Chen? Why did he come?

He was clearly the person she was most familiar with, but Yun Xi was now hesitating. She didn’t know how to open the door to greet him, and didn’t know what to say.

Nor did she know how to face this relationship.

“Yun Xi? You’re at home, right? I saw Yun Huai just now. Can you open the door? I have something to say to you.”

“I’m sorry, I was cooking just now and didn’t hear the knocking. If you want to say something, just stand at the door and say it. The smell of cooking fumes is too strong at home, so it’s not convenient.”

After weighing the pros and Cons, Yun Xi still opened the door and pretended to be calm as she took off the apron she was wearing.

Her tone was exceptionally cold, and Qi Chen couldn’t help but be stunned. The words he had thought of before coming here were instantly forgotten, “It’s nothing. I just wanted to come and see you. Where have you been these past few days? I’ve come to your house quite a few times but haven’t seen you.”

“There were some things that I had to do after filming for a few days.”

Thinking about what she had experienced on set, Yun XI subconsciously took a step back and watched as the distance between them grew further and further.

She and Qi Chen grew up together and their parents often interacted with each other. After the Yun family’s accident, mother Qi took good care of them.

But that was the end of it.

Qi Chen had a bright future ahead of him, and his mother would definitely not allow the two of them to get closer.

This kind of distance and politeness was already the limit they could maintain.

Thinking up to this point, Yun Xi’s heart sank even more.

Qi Chen didn’t know what she was thinking and continued to say, “So that’s how it is. I thought something happened to you.”

“Um, I have a question that I haven’t had the chance to ask you. Do you still remember what happened to us at the bar last time? I want to know, what do you think?”

The evening sunlight was too dazzling. Yun Xi could only squint her eyes and lower her head to avoid looking at him.

“What can I think? Even if I have a thought, is there a way to solve it? Let’s forget about it. Your family won’t allow us to do this.”

Qi Chen’s house was right in front of this building. If one raised their head, they would be able to see the window of his bedroom.

Yun Xi had watched him like this for many days and nights, but she wouldn’t do it again in the future.

“Don’t bother about others. I only care about what you think. If you’re willing, we can solve any problem.”Qi Chen was a little agitated. He walked forward and wanted to hold Yun Xi’s hand, but she avoided him.

“Is my opinion really important to you? Then why don’t you tell me what you think — why did you do that day? Was it just because you drank? Or do you have other thoughts? I don’t believe you don’t know.”

Yun Xi was a little angry that someone had brought out their feelings of nearly ten years.

How did she not realize that Qi Chen was such an indecisive person? Yun Xi even began to wonder if the ten years she liked were worth it.

“What should I know? Yun Xi, you’re willing to accept me deep down, right?”

Perhaps it was because of the requirements of his profession, Qi Chen always maintained a cold and distant expression in front of outsiders. He rarely had any major mood swings.

This was the first time Yun Xi saw a different light in his eyes.

She didn’t say anything, but Qi Chen understood.

At the very least, at this moment, their hearts were connected.

“You like me too, right? I knew it. Can you give me some time? I’ll find you after I’ve settled everything. Trust me.”

Qi Chen Held Yun Xi’s hand, his tone exceptionally gentle, just like Yun Xi had imagined in her dreams.

But this time, Yun Xi didn’t want to wait..
