Chapter 723 Apology
Li Jing was obviously a little embarrassed, but he still insisted, "Nian Yao, I just want to talk to you for a few words. Let's go out and talk, okay? I was wrong about what happened before, and I also want to formally apologize to you."
After saying this, he looked at Zhong Nianyao affectionately. The deep affection in his eyes seemed to melt people.
However, despite his outward appearance, his heart was already hanging high at this moment. Since he had already decided to pursue Zhong Nianyao again, he naturally could not let this opportunity go. He did not know where Zhong Nianyao lived in the resort, let alone how many days she would stay there.
The only thing he knew was that this was his only and last chance. If he really couldn't talk to Zhong Nianyao today, then there would be no chance in the future.
So, he had been quietly paying attention to the movements at Zhong Nianyao's table. Moreover, before Zhong Nianyao and her friends paid the bill, he had already asked for leave in advance.
After Zhong Nian Yao and the others left, he followed them secretly, wanting to seize the opportunity when Zhong Nian Yao was alone and go up to her to chat.
Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for him to find an opportunity. It seemed that even God was on his side!
"Oh!" Zhong Nianyao looked at Li Jingming with a half-smile, "What can't be said here? I don't think there's anything between you and me that needs to be said in private."
A dark light flashed in Li Jingming's eyes, and then he lowered his posture even more. "Nian Yao, it was just a few words. I begged you at that time. Just give me a chance to apologize!"
Zhong Nianyao looked at Li Jingming without saying anything, just watching him quietly.
Under that piercing gaze that seemed to see through everything, Li Jingming tried his best to remain calm, but cold sweat broke out on his back. He didn't know if Zhong Nianyao had seen anything. But he could only grit his teeth and persevere, absolutely not giving up his only chance.
Just when Li Jingming thought he could no longer hold on, Zhong Nianyao spoke again.
"good."
After getting Zhong Nian Yao's consent, the smile on Li Jingming's face seemed more sincere.
Soon, the two came to a cafe next to the puppet shop and sat down opposite each other.
However, after ordering the drinks, Li Jingming remained silent. Even after the coffee was placed in front of them, Li Jingming still didn't say a word.
It’s not that he didn’t want to say it, but he was secretly thinking about how to start the conversation so that it wouldn’t seem so awkward.
In the past, Zhong Nianyao had always been the one chasing after him. Now it was his turn to coax Zhong Nianyao, and he really didn't know how to start.
"Aren't you going to apologize?" Zhong Nianyao seemed a little impatient. "It seems your sincerity isn't that great! It's been so long, and you can't even say a word of apology. You're simply wasting my time."
Seeing that Zhong Nianyao seemed to want to get up and leave, Li Jingming became a little anxious. He quickly said, "No, I really do apologize to you sincerely."
"Nian Yao, what happened in the past was all my fault. I was blinded by Shen Yixue, so I treated you like this. Because of the things I have done to hurt you, I solemnly apologize to you here. I am really sorry."
Zhong Nianyao looked at Li Jingming and nodded, "Okay, I've heard it now. So you're done, right? I'll be leaving first then."
After saying that, she stood up and prepared to leave.
She didn't think at all that Li Jingming really knew he was wrong. If he really knew he was wrong, he wouldn't have blamed all the faults on Shen Yixue.
It seems that even if he has fallen into such a situation now, Li Jingming does not think that the mistakes in the past are his. Although Shen Yixue is indeed hateful, Li Jingming is by no means innocent.
Seeing that Zhong Nianyao was about to leave, Li Jingming became anxious. He stretched out his hand, trying to grab Zhong Nianyao who was standing up. However, as soon as he stretched out his hand, Zhong Nianyao dodged.
"Li Jingming," Zhong Nianyao dodged Li Jingming's hand, her eyes as cold as ice. "If you can't control your hands, don't blame me for being rude. Just chop off the disobedient thing."
Looking at Zhong Nianyao's cold look, Li Jingming panicked and cold sweat broke out on his back again, even on his forehead.
For a moment, he thought about retreating, but the cruelty of life brought him back to his senses in time, forcing him to persevere even though he was afraid.
Because if you want to improve your current life, you must grab Zhong Nian Yao as a life-saving straw.
Even if he couldn't impress Zhong Nianyao today, at least he had tried. He had nothing to lose, so why not give it a try?
At this time, Li Jingming didn't know that because of this one thought, he pushed himself into the abyss.
"Nian Yao, I didn't mean it."
Adjusting his mindset, Li Jingming said apologetically, "I just saw you were about to leave and was a little anxious, so I wanted to hold you back. I didn't mean anything else, I just wanted to continue talking to you."
"Oh, you want to talk to me." Zhong Nianyao leaned back, crossed her arms over her chest, and looked at Li Jingming with a playful expression, "Is there anything we can talk about? I don't remember that we have such a relationship!"
"How could it not be?" Li Jingming looked nostalgic, "In the past, we were classmates! Moreover, we had a very good relationship back then. If Shen Yixue hadn't deliberately made trouble later, we might have been together now."
"Don't!" Zhong Nianyao waved her hands quickly and said with a look of disgust, "Don't tell any horror stories here! If I really were with you, I'm afraid I would have nightmares every night."
Hearing Zhong Nianyao's ruthless words, Li Jingming's face turned blue and red, and his expression was mostly embarrassed.
However, he had already anticipated all the possibilities before coming here. So, facing Zhong Nianyao's disdainful attitude, he would definitely not back down.
"Nian Yao, I know that many things in the past were actually my fault."
When he looked up again, Li Jingming had adjusted his mentality. His eyes were full of affection. "Now I know that I lost such a good girl."
