Chapter 1944: So You Knew Everything All Along

Wei Yangyang let out a long breath.

The heavy stone on her chest also seemed to have disappeared.

Li Xingyan watched her like this, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.

But Wei Yangyang could not laugh.

The person before her was simply an ancestor.

Before, she could still hide.

But recently...

One could be sitting at home and still have a pot fall from the sky!

Wei Yangyang did not want this.

She... wanted the relationship between the two of them to return to the past.

Hesitating for a moment, Wei Yangyang opened her mouth and said very tactfully, "You are a very busy person with many things to attend to every day; there is no need for you to worry about the trivial matters of my life anymore."

Who was Li Xingyan? As soon as he heard this, he sensed that there was more to Wei Yangyang's words.

He did not want to beat around the bush either, so he asked directly, "What are you trying to say?"

"What I want to say is... from now on, I will take good care of myself, so please don't... worry about it."

She did not know if it was Wei Yangyang's imagination, but she felt the surrounding temperature suddenly drop.

So cold!

Moreover, the gaze landing on her seemed as if it would burn two holes into her body...

The expression on Li Xingyan's face was chilling.

The voice he spoke with also carried a sense of coldness: "Are you saying that you want me to stay away from you?"

"It's just... maintaining our original positions is fine; not disturbing each other is very good."

"But I don't think it's good at all!"

"Why?"

"Because I don't want my life to be without you!"

Li Xingyan was truly about to be driven mad by Wei Yangyang.

He opened his mouth and blurted out the words hidden in his heart!

But after saying it, Li Xingyan felt very annoyed.

His heartbeat even skipped a few beats.

These words of his... were very ambiguous.

They were no different from a confession.

Even if Wei Yangyang had a pig's brain, she would still understand!

Would she be scared?

Or...

Li Xingyan felt uneasy inside, yet he also had a few glimmers of hope.

However, when he looked at Wei Yangyang, he discovered that his prediction was wrong.

There was no shyness or shock on Wei Yangyang's face.

There was only distress on her face.

It seemed...

In this instant, the air seemed to have stilled.

After a brief moment of distraction, Li Xingyan gritted his teeth and said, "So you knew everything all along!"

Wei Yangyang was startled.

She widened her eyes and desperately denied it, saying, "I don't know!"

"I haven't even said what you know, and you're already denying it? You're clearly feeling guilty!"

"I, I don't care what you're going to say, anyway I just don't know!"

At this moment, Wei Yangyang had the mentality of an ostrich.

She also felt that this was not a place to stay for long.

She turned to leave.

But Li Xingyan grabbed her wrist, his voice sounding as if it were squeezed out from between his teeth: "Asking you one last time, you really don't know?!"

Wei Yangyang shook her head hurriedly, her expression a bit panicked.

"Fine, then I'll tell you now, I like you! Now you know, right!"

Li Xingyan had somewhat lost his reason.

He would not give Wei Yangyang a chance to escape either.

He wanted to know Wei Yangyang's feelings right now!

But at this moment, Wei Yangyang's mind was a complete blank.

The expression on her face looked as if she had been struck by lightning.

Her appearance caused Li Xingyan's anticipation to turn into anger.

He could not help but tighten his fingers and interrogate her: "Is this sentence of mine that terrifying?"

This sentence was not terrifying.

What was terrifying was Li Xingyan!

How, how could he like her?

Could it be that he was truly sick!

"Wei Yangyang, speak!"

Li Xingyan had completely lost his patience.

His angry shout was like a peal of thunder.

It startled Wei Yangyang, making her heart race; without thinking, she blurted out, "Say what?"

"Say what you are thinking in your heart!"

"I—I feel like you are truly sick."

Wei Yangyang was, at least, honest.

Whatever she thought in her heart, she said.

But this honesty, at this moment, was absolutely fatal!

Having come to her senses, Wei Yangyang directly covered her own lips.

In the depths of Li Xingyan's eyes, disbelief flashed.

The next second, he sneered, "Wei Yangyang, you have a lot of nerve!"

"No... what I meant was..."

"Enough, you go!"

Li Xingyan let go of Wei Yangyang.

He also turned his back to her, seemingly not wanting to see her.

Wei Yangyang blinked, then took a step back, and another...

When she reached the doorway, she left the room on tiptoe.

When the sound of the door closing came, Li Xingyan closed his eyes.

The anger all over his body also vanished completely.

He slumped onto the sofa, thinking to himself, does this count as... a breakup?

No, it hadn't even started yet, so where would a breakup come from?

Li Xingyan laughed at himself.

Then his whole person was tightly enveloped by a sense of defeat...

On the other side, Jiang Motian, who was queuing for milk tea with Xie Wanyi, was in quite a good mood.

This milk tea shop was a long-established brand.

When Wei Yangyang and Jiang Motian were still in school, they were regulars here.

Now, so many years later, the taste of the milk tea hadn't changed much.

But its fame had soared.

Even though it had just opened in the morning, there were quite a few people in line.

Logically speaking, waiting in line would make people impatient.

But Jiang Motian was all smiles...

What was the situation?

Xie Wanyi tilted his head to look and asked, "Did you encounter something happy when you went out?"

"You got half of that right!"

"Oh, the first half or the second half?"

"The second half, and, it's my brother who has a surprise!"

"Your brother? Li Xingyan?"

Jiang Motian nodded, then briefly explained the matter.

She had intentionally not revealed to Li Xingyan that Wei Yangyang was coming.

The purpose, of course, was to give her brother a surprise.

Presumably, at this moment, her brother, being gently coaxed by his sweetheart, must be overjoyed!

Looking at his girlfriend's smiling face, Xie Wanyi also unconsciously curled his lips.

Then he asked, "Do you think the relationship between those two can have a breakthrough today?"

"The chances are high, and I have a premonition that my brother might even confess!"

Confess?

Xie Wanyi was quite curious about how Li Xingyan could confess.

Would he come right out with it?

Or would he use every trick to lure the other party into speaking first?

Hmm... he really wanted to go to the scene and see!

As soon as this thought popped up, Xie Wanyi asked Jiang Motian, "How about we..."

"Stop, the two of them must be at a critical point right now; we can't disturb them."

To tell the truth, Jiang Motian's curiosity was no less than Xie Wanyi's.

Perhaps even more so.

She was currently using her reason to suppress her curiosity.

If Xie Wanyi kept lobbying Jiang Motian...

She might just end up being an accomplice!

Jiang Motian didn't want to give herself that opportunity.

So she made the final decision: "Anyway, we'll just wait for the result!"

"Fine, then let's hope we can hear good news about your brother in a while."

"Even if we don't get good news today, it still means something good is near. After all, the two of them are already sharing a single ice cream cone! Once they get together, I must make my brother give me a big reward!"

Speaking of rewards...

Jiang Motian rested her chin on one hand and began to fantasize: "What do you think if I ask my brother for a yacht? A luxury version, one we can take out to sea to play!"
