Chapter 763 I Don't Want to Miss You
"Jingjing!"
Jiang Yuanliang's long legs caught up with Shen Jingjing in a few quick steps, and he opened the clothes in his hand to wrap Shen Jingjing up: "Clothes, be careful not to catch a cold."
Shen Jingjing grabbed the collar of her coat and took two steps back. Jiang Yuanliang, seeing this, said with a complicated expression, "I mustered up a lot of courage to say these words today. Every word is from the heart."
"I did anticipate that you might reject me, but now I have to say it, and I don't regret it."
Ni Man is right. Jingjing is not young anymore. If he likes her, he should express his feelings as soon as possible.
Hearing Jiang Yuanliang's words, it would be a lie to say that Shen Jingjing wasn't moved, but considering her own situation, she really couldn't give Jiang Yuanliang any response.
“Yuanliang.” Shen Jingjing looked at him, her tightly pursed lips trembling slightly: “I’m not worthy.”
The vulnerability and inferiority complex deep within her soul surged up at this moment when she faced Jiang Yuanliang.
She wasn't being pretentious, nor was she indifferent to Jiang Yuanliang; rather, she genuinely and truly felt that she wasn't good enough for him.
She is a single mother with three children.
What about Jiang Yuanliang?
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he is the most outstanding man in all of China.
"How could it not be worth it?"
Jiang Yuanliang sensed the inferiority in her tone and hurriedly explained, "Right now, I am just a suitor in front of you. I am just an ordinary person. You don't need to idolize me or put me on a high pedestal."
"Putting aside all the halos around me, I am now just a man expressing his feelings to the person I like. I am just like any other man in the world. I am neither a saint nor a god."
"Jingjing, if you like me too, or even if you have just a little bit of affection for me, please give me a chance, okay?"
"For so many years, I've never had any sense of self in my relationships; I've always just followed my father's arrangements. This is the first time I've felt such strong and obvious feelings for someone. I don't want to miss you, and I don't want you to miss me!"
"I will do my best to make you happy, you can believe me, Jingjing."
Jiang Yuanliang blurted out so many words all at once. If his feelings for Shen Jingjing were initially restrained or even unconscious, now that his suppressed emotions were pouring out, it seemed that he had endless things to say to Shen Jingjing to prove his sincerity.
Shen Jingjing's eyes were slightly red. Jiang Yuanliang's sincerity enveloped her in the cold night, and she could no longer bring herself to refuse.
Because Jiang Yuanliang's gaze was so deeply affectionate, a deep affection mixed with longing and pleading, Shen Jingjing had never seen Jiang Yuanliang like this before, as if he would shatter if she gently shook her head.
“Jingjing…”
A tear slid down Shen Jingjing's cheek, and Jiang Yuanliang gently wiped it away.
The next second, Shen Jingjing took a step forward and hugged him.
Jiang Yuanliang was startled, and when he came to his senses, his eyes were instantly filled with tenderness. He hugged her tightly in his arms.
Under the dim streetlights, a few snowflakes fell slowly. Not far away, Fei Yunzong saw this scene, sighed softly, and drove away.
Shen Ci had been waiting at home for her mother to return. As soon as there was a noise at the gate, Yoda excitedly wagged her tail and rushed towards the gate.
Shen Ci sprang up instantly and walked to the French windows to look outside.
The mother's car was parked on the lawn in front. The door opened and she got out of the car alone.
Shen Ci frowned suspiciously, wondering if Uncle Jiang hadn't gone.
Or did we miss each other by some twist of fate?
Shen Jingjing walked to the door, took two deep breaths, and then straightened her clothes and hair before reaching out to unlock the door with her fingerprint.
"mom!"
As soon as the door opened, Shen Ci was already waiting inside. His voice startled Shen Jingjing.
"What are you doing standing at the door?" Shen Jingjing patted her chest and closed the door behind her after entering.
Shen Ci was still looking towards the door behind her mother, but she looked away when she saw that her mother had closed the door: "I saw you come back, why didn't you come in for so long?"
"It's snowing outside, so I wiped my shoes on." Shen Jingjing muttered to herself, "It's already March, and it's still snowing in Longcheng."
After entering the house, Shen Jingjing pretended to be nonchalant and went to the kitchen, asking her daughter, "You didn't eat dinner, did you? Mom will cook now."
Shen Ci quickly followed, and tentatively asked from the kitchen doorway, "Mom, don't you have anything to tell me?"
"What is it?"
Seeing her mother's reaction, Shen Ci hesitated and shook her head. Just as she was disappointed and thought that nothing had happened, she heard her mother suddenly say, "Do you want me to thank you for telling your Uncle Jiang to come to the teahouse to find me?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Ci's eyes widened immediately: "So Uncle Jiang really went?"
She was a little agitated and rushed to her mother, asking, "Mom, so what happened? Did Uncle Jiang say anything to you?"
Shen Jingjing glared at her daughter, annoyed. "What can he say? What do you want him to say to me?"
"Tell him...tell him how he feels about you!" Shen Ci urged. "Didn't he say it?"
Shen Jingjing stopped what she was doing and nodded after a long while: "I told you."
Shen Ci was frantic. She snatched the tomato from her mother's hand and threw it aside, then straightened her mother's posture: "My dear mother, can't you just finish what you're saying at once?"
"So Uncle Jiang really likes you, right? Did he confess to you? Did you say yes? What's the situation between you two now?"
Looking at her daughter, Shen Jingjing said to herself, "To be honest, I still feel like I'm dreaming."
But this dream seems to have actually happened.
"Aci, do you support me being with your Uncle Jiang?" Shen Jingjing asked her daughter.
“Of course!” Shen Ci nodded earnestly. “Otherwise, why would I have secretly invited him to the teahouse today? I knew you were meeting with Uncle Fei at the teahouse today, so I wanted to create a sense of crisis for Uncle Jiang and see if I could provoke him. It seems it worked.”
"I fully support him. Uncle Jiang is such a good person. Mom, you also have feelings for Uncle Jiang, right?"
Shen Jingjing didn't answer her daughter, but instead asked, "Do you really think the two of us are a good match?"
"You only know if a shoe fits once you try it on. Mom, I know what you're worried about, but everyone is equal when it comes to feelings. Uncle Jiang doesn't have any special privileges. He has the same emotional needs as everyone else, and so do you. If you like each other, you should be together."
"Besides, my dad has already lowered the bar when it comes to relationships. You'll never meet anyone worse than him. Even a man like that got a chance with you, so why can't Uncle Jiang?"
