“I don’t agree with what you’re saying…” Aoqian didn’t understand why Song Xiwei said that.
After thinking for a while, he said to Song Xiwei, "If it's mutual affection, you'll like the other person no matter what they are like. You'll cherish them and not trample on them. The root cause is that you don't like them enough. That's why you use a narrow mind to demand things from the other person. That's not mutual affection at all. If they're not a good match, why not end it sooner?"
Song Xiwei never expected Aoqian to say such a thing.
"Mutual affection?" She felt that was something ethereal and unattainable; she had never experienced it, so she didn't have any real feelings about it.
"It's about liking each other, admiring each other, caring for each other, and being tolerant of each other. Because you like each other, you see everything about the other person as the best. You're too busy liking them to criticize them. If you're always criticizing, belittling, or trampling on them, then it's definitely not mutual affection."
Aoqian explained his views on mutual affection to Song Xiwei again in a very serious manner.
"I never imagined you were so insightful about matters of the heart. I'm very pleased with you." Song Xiwei felt a strange stirring in her heart.
There was even a misconception that Aoqian's words were a declaration of some kind of determination to himself.
She didn't want to misunderstand, but the way Aoqian looked at her was just too direct...
Song Xiwei was clearly embarrassed by Ao Qian's intense gaze.
She quickened her pace and walked around to the front of him.
Aoqian followed her, his gaze lingering on Song Xiwei's slightly unsteady steps, a slight smile playing on his lips.
Boiling a frog in lukewarm water should work, right?
Her ears turned bright red when she called him "brother" with such pride.
Keep trying, one day she will definitely be moved by him.
Although it's still one-sided for him right now, he believes that with his persistent efforts, mutual affection will eventually develop...
Thinking back to what happened in the locust grove, I thought things would progress rapidly between us, but we almost messed it up.
Now, Aoqian dares not act rashly anymore, nor does he dare to make his thoughts too blatant.
Fortunately, I still have the identity of my all-powerful younger brother to use.
Song Xiwei took a few steps and realized that Aoqian hadn't followed, so she turned back, her heart softening.
Because Aoqian had exhausted himself saving people, he didn't know how much his body had recovered.
As soon as she turned around, she saw Aoqian staring at her with the same eyes he had on his prey.
Aoqian was clearly taken aback; his undisguised gaze almost betrayed him on the spot.
He thought he could hide his feelings for Song Xiwei very well, but when you like someone, when you love them to the core, how easy is it to hide them completely?
Aoqian felt somewhat embarrassed, even guilty, but then he thought, since things have come to this, perhaps he might as well...
Aoqian chuckled slyly to himself.
His legs buckled, and just as he was about to fall, he saw Song Xiwei running towards him.
As expected, she fell into Song Xiwei's arms.
Supported by Song Xiwei, her gentle and caring voice was intoxicating.
"I shouldn't have let you come with me. You're still weak and should be resting in bed more. You shouldn't be moving around." Song Xiwei seemed to be blaming Aoqian, but she was actually blaming herself.
Aoqian leaned weakly against her, his breath carrying the pleasant fragrance of Song Xiwei. He closed his eyes, looking extremely weak, but in reality, he felt incredibly sweet inside.
Although he used such a shameless and underhanded method, he could never have too much of Song Xiwei's embrace and tenderness.
Song Xiwei helped Aoqian back to his room. After carefully helping him lie down, Song Xiwei tucked him in.
As soon as he stood up, Aoqian grabbed his sleeve.
Ao Qian revealed a vulnerable expression, and the hand gripping her sleeve, though seemingly weak, was actually not easy for anyone to break free from.
"Brother will go and brew some medicine for you. Your body is weak, so you need to eat more nourishing foods to recover quickly. Be good, listen to me," Song Xiwei coaxed gently.
