Chapter 109: Shen Li

That kiss was as light as a feather, landing beside his dimple, carrying a bit of cool softness.

Xie Qin froze, forgetting to breathe.

His palm was still holding her hand, the temperature scorching, but all his senses were concentrated on the place she had just kissed.

He stared at her blankly.

"Say it again..."

Shen Li raised her hand, gently stroking his hair, her fingertips gently brushing over his red-rimmed eyes, her voice soft and clear: "I said, Xie Qin, I like you."

He tightened his arms, holding her tighter, as if he wanted to rub her into his body, curling his lips and laughing happily: "Me too."

The evening wind brushed across the artificial lake, ripples appearing on the water surface, and the streetlights stretched their shadows very long.

"Xie Qin, I will be responsible for you." Shen Li looked at him without blinking.

Xie Qin couldn't help but laugh muffledly: "How will you be responsible for me?"

He accepted her confession, and now they should be boyfriend and girlfriend.

Shen Li pressed her lips together slightly, seriously: "I won't break up with you after dating for a month."

As soon as the words were spoken, she saw his expression sink, frowning: "Just started dating, and you're already mentioning breaking up with me. You dare!"

Shen Li actually had no bottom in her heart. She didn't know to what extent Xie Qin's feelings for her had reached. She quickly pondered in her brain, and after a short, careful consideration, she said: "Can we date for three months first?"

"Why three months?"

Hearing her words, Xie Qin had a bad premonition. His eyes stared at her deeply, preparing to continue listening to her.

Shen Li hadn't noticed the displeasure on him yet, and said her thoughts to herself: "Because you've dated so many girlfriends, Xu Zhouyuan said none of them exceeded three months. I don't have much experience in this aspect, so I want to try these three months first. If you still don't want to break up with me by then, we can continue dating, is that okay?"

"I want... to be with you for a longer time."

Suddenly, Shen Li heard him laugh again: "Who said I dated so many?"

"I only have you."

Shen Li looked at him blankly: "They said you dated twelve girlfriends."

Xie Qin looked very happy, resting his hand on the back of the wooden chair, raising an eyebrow at her: "You saw it?"

Shen Li felt it wasn't right for him to lie, so she told him what she heard in that rice noodle shop when she first came to Wuchuan: "They said you used to smoke, drink, fight, and date in high school, and dated twelve."

"You also opened a room in a hotel with a broadcasting student named Wang Yina, called for seven condoms, and someone saw you coming out of the hotel with her."

Talking about this, she didn't blush or feel shy, like interrogating a criminal, with a business-like attitude.

Xie Qin laughed, the corners of his lips curling up slightly: "What is all this! Those were all rumors they spread to get me, by any means necessary."

Saying this, he moved closer to Shen Li, the distance gradually narrowing, looking down at her: "Back then! I was just too young, so I let them spread rumors about me like that."

"That day, the water pipe at my house burst, so I had no choice but to stay in a hotel near the school."

"Later, a girl found out my hotel room number from somewhere, and she said she wanted to dance for me..."

"You say she's so enthusiastic, I couldn't refuse."

"Thinking she would leave after dancing. Who knew, she came to find me to stage a collision, twisted her foot while doing the splits, and didn't want to leave."

"I'm so self-disciplined, I only smoke and drink, these little hobbies."

"And those condoms, that was Xu Zhouyuan deliberately framing me."

"That night, I gave the room to her to sleep, and I opened another room myself. The next morning, she blocked my door and insisted on pestering me."

Xie Qin was distressed, sighing.

"It's all because I'm too handsome, too many people want to get me."

"I, you know! Don't look at how I play, actually I'm very pure."

"I haven't even kissed a girl's face."

"Last time in the bar, I was sexually harassed, she stole a kiss and I couldn't even defend against it, I almost called the police. It was also because I'm a good person, I didn't care about her, and when I went back... I even took several showers."

"Now I'm very clean."

Shen Li listened to everything carefully, her face a bit serious: "You must protect yourself well."

Now Xie Qin was her boyfriend.

Confirmed the relationship.

She looked at him and felt she still had to tell him: "If such a thing happens again, I will be sad."

Xie Qin laughed lightly: "Okay, I will definitely protect myself well, and in the future... only let you touch me."

"... Anywhere is fine."

Shen Li nodded.

"The situation is like this, and the matter is just like that." Xie Qin asked her lazily: "On the 6th of National Day, whose car did you sit in?"

"You didn't return to school all night!"

Shen Li was stunned for a moment, never expecting he would know. She thought it was his girlfriend's mind, but since he asked, she felt she still had to tell him: "He is my grandfather's student, came to Qingcheng on a business trip, and stopped by Wuchuan to see me."

"You hadn't returned that day, so he and I went to eat seafood buffet. I didn't expect him to be allergic to seafood, it was quite serious, so I stayed in the hospital and didn't go back."

The time seemed a bit too late, and she was a bit sleepy.

Xie Qin nodded, gentle starlight spreading between his eyebrows: "Cold?"

Shen Li: "A bit."

Saying this, Xie Qin took off the black jacket he was wearing, put it on her, zipped it to the end, and hugged her: "You're lucky."

Shen Li saw he was wearing a black sweater inside, leaned in his arms, and when she looked up, looking at the handsome face close at hand, the bangs on his forehead were blown by the breeze, and her heart still beat very fast.

"Hmm?"

Xie Qin "kindly" reminded her: "So many people want to get me, but they didn't get me, that's their fate. But me, I fell into your hands, and I accept it."

"Remember to be responsible, and have some sense of responsibility as a person, don't stop cherishing it once you get it." 【

Xie Qin nodded: "Mm, I won't be the type to start off enthusiastic and end up indifferent."

Xie Qin: "Sit for a while longer, then we'll go back."

Shen Li: "Okay."

The starlight in the night sky was exceptionally bright tonight, accompanied by the evening breeze brushing against their faces.

The temperature by the lake grew colder as the night deepened. Xie Qin's drunkenness had dissipated quite a bit. He lowered his head to look at the person leaning against his chest, reached out to pull his phone from his pocket, and lit up the screen; it was almost eleven o'clock.
