Chapter 155 He's Confession
As soon as Shen Qingyue came back, she saw He Zhengchen with a bitter and resentful look on his face and said, "I have something to tell you."
Shen Qingyue said seriously: "Then tell me."
He Zhengchen said seriously, "Let's talk about it somewhere else."
He Zhengchen always gave Shen Qingyue the impression of being steady, and now she didn't suspect anything. She changed the place.
He Zhengchen still had his back straight, but his lower back was damp with sweat. He felt a little more nervous.
Shen Qingyue was a little surprised and asked, "What's wrong?"
He Zhengchen opened his mouth, wanting to say something. He had worked his way up from reporter to editor-in-chief of a provincial newspaper, so speaking was no problem for him.
But at this moment, all the words seemed to be stuck in my throat, I wanted to say them but couldn't.
Shen Qingyue looked at him, and He Zhengchen showed a rare look of nervousness.
He has always liked relationships that come naturally, and he didn't want to express his love out loud, but he was afraid that someone else would get there first.
He Zhengchen was speechless for a long time, and began to blame himself.
Now that things have come to this, I have to say it. I can only say, "I..." That really hurts my tongue.
I don’t know how those romantic people can fluently say words like love and affection that are difficult to say.
He Zhengchen's cheeks turned red.
She made up her mind and said these words, "Shen Qingyue, I like you." After she said that, not only her cheeks turned red, but even the tips of her ears were flushed.
Shen Qingyue was startled. She thought He Zhengchen was talking about serious matters, but she didn't expect him to talk about this.
She didn't even notice it on weekdays.
Now that I think about it, many things seem to have been revealed.
He bought a house, formed a partnership with Shen Qingyue, and demonstrated extraordinary abilities, taking on more and more complex problems. He Zhengchen has become an indispensable figure around her.
He Zhengchen was embarrassed to say the first sentence, but he finished it with the most courageous words.
The rest of the conversation flowed smoothly and naturally: "I'm serious. My parents are both gone, and I only have a grandfather who lives overseas. I have almost no relatives in China. If you were with me, you wouldn't have to worry about conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law."
He Zhengchen said, "I still have two hundred thousand in Citibank. I'll give it all to you."
When getting married, he naturally has to show his sincerity. This is all his wealth, not counting the investments he has made over the years, but when it comes to money, He Zhengchen really has no shortage of it.
He revealed all his cards without holding back.
Shen Qingyue said, "He Zhengchen, I know you're a good person, but I really haven't thought about getting married." She just wanted to save more money so she could live a comfortable life. She had no plans to get married.
He Zhengchen said: "Do you hate getting married... or do you hate me..." His voice was a little tense, for he was afraid to hear the latter answer.
Shen Qingyue said: "I hate getting married."
He Zhengchen's eyes suddenly lit up. According to what Shen Qingyue said, she doesn't hate him?
Then there is still a chance. He Zhengchen said: "Then I can not get married, can we be a couple?"
How could Shen Qingyue respond to such words? She was in a dilemma whether to agree or not.
Shen Qingyue said: "This happened too suddenly, I need some time to digest it."
Shen Qingyue's ears felt a little hot: "If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
He Zhengchen hummed.
Although Shen Qingyue didn't agree to him, she didn't refuse either.
He Zhengchen finally felt relieved.
Shen Qingyue got busy after returning home. As soon as He Zhengchen returned to the kitchen, he saw that the fat chef Chen Huai had already prepared a table full of food.
Chen Huai saw a smile on He Zhengchen's face. A hint of gossip flashed in his eyes: "So, did Shen Qingyue agree to your pursuit?"
"Not yet." He Zhengchen said.
…
Aunt Liu was outside trying to get a broom when she suddenly heard this shocking gossip.
Shen Qingyue is beautiful and capable, making her a goddess that no one in the village can reach.
These people in the village like to match people up, but no one mentioned Shen Qingyue and He Zhengchen.
These days there is a huge gap between rural and urban household registrations.
He Zhengchen not only has a resident of the provincial capital, but he is also a college student in the 1980s. In addition, he bought a garden house at the first opportunity. How could such a person date a girl from the village?
In the past, girls from the village who married into the suburbs of the city would be accused by their in-laws of marrying above their station.
The rules in the provincial capital are more stringent than in the county.
They are not a good match.
Who would have thought that when Sixth Aunt heard this, it was clear that He Zhengchen liked Shen Qingyue.
No one in the village knows such a big secret.
She wanted to hold it in, but she wasn't that kind of person and couldn't hold it in at all. So she secretly told her elder sister Aunt Yun about it.
Aunt Yun was also shocked when she heard this.
This went on for the entire afternoon, and the people working in the yard kept looking back and forth at He Zhengchen and Shen Qingyue.
It’s true, after removing the barrier of household registration, the two of them are a perfect match in terms of appearance and ability.
"Hey, is this true or false?"
"How could it be false? I heard it with my own ears."
"Are those two dating?"
"It doesn't look like it yet."
"Oh my." The aunts and uncles who were watching were so anxious that they wanted to personally teach He Zhengchen how to date.
This heroic woman is afraid of being pestered by men. Such a flowery way of speaking won't do.
Shen Qingyue and He Zhengchen keenly felt the change in the atmosphere.
He Zhengchen reviewed the situation and thought, this is not good. Maybe someone overheard what he said to Fatty. He wanted to find Shen Qingyue to explain.
In the end, he hadn't even gotten close to Shen Qingyue yet.
The eyes of everyone present lit up and they were waiting to see.
He Zhengchen's ears suddenly turned red.
Shen Qingyue was also a little embarrassed.
The women in the village were all quite tough. They looked anxious. With nothing else to do, they quickly separated the two and dragged them aside.
Said to He Zhengchen: "Xiao He, do you like our village girl Yueyue? You can't date like this. You are a gay man, what is there to be embarrassed about? Go after her boldly."
…
The aunts said to Shen Qingyue, "Yueyue, your parents are gone. We have watched you grow up, so we are half your elders. Xiao He is good-looking and capable. If it weren't for you, he would never have stayed in the village. You must seize the opportunity."
"I've seen so many young men, but none of them can catch up with Xiao He. Don't be too reserved, just go for the good one you meet. You are the most outstanding girl in our village. You are more than qualified to be with him."
"That's right, this good guy can't be let go. Once someone sets their sights on you, and you two aren't even in a relationship, then they won't care and will just keep pestering you."
