Chapter 219: Never More Than Friends
Gu Xixi jumped away in horror: "No way, we are not dating, why are you asking for marriage for no reason!"
"Wait, are you guys playing a trick on me?"
As he spoke, Gu Xixi turned his head and looked around for other people.
But after waiting for a long time... nothing!
There are only her and Li Xingcheng here.
Because they grew up together, Gu Xixi knew Li Xingcheng very well and knew that even if he "acted", he could not deceive her eyes.
Li Xingcheng said nothing, but the eyes staring at her seemed to say everything.
Gu Xixi was suspicious: "You really like me, don't you?"
The man in front of me nodded without hesitation.
Gu Xixi: “!!!”
It’s hidden so deeply!
He is worthy of being the son of the Li family!
From childhood to adulthood, no, it should be said that from childhood to the second before the confession, she had never thought that Li Xingcheng would like her.
"No, you can't get married!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Xixi felt the air around him suddenly cool down, and the icy feeling was wrapped by the sea breeze and hit his body.
With her remaining eyes tilted towards the ground outside the car, Gu Xixi saw the shoes she had kicked off -
Flying left and right.
If she tried to put on her shoes at this time, Li Xingcheng would definitely catch her.
He has admitted it, so he must want an answer immediately.
Since she couldn't escape, she could only curl up and hold her feet in her arms, trying to reduce her presence. ♀
But that sturdy figure was getting closer and closer, and the shadow cast by the body almost enveloped Gu Xixi.
She swallowed nervously, raised her head and looked into those unclear eyes: "What did you eat to grow up? How come you are so tall now... so big... move aside, you are sucking away my air."
Li Xingcheng supported himself with his arms, like a beast smelling the scent of prey, emitting an aura in the darkness that activated Gu Xixi's alertness.
"Xixi, why don't you agree? Have you never had any feelings for me?"
Using the most terrifying momentum, saying the most innocent and pitiful words.
The tone of her voice made it seem as if she had become a scumbag who played with people's hearts.
Gu Xixi still feels her head buzzing: "I think we have always been good friends!"
"So what you mean is that your attitude towards me, Huo Lin, and Li Cheyan is the same?"
After thinking about it carefully, Gu Xixi felt that something seemed different.
She shook her head subconsciously, and joy immediately appeared in Li Xingcheng's eyes.
Li Cheyan is the male protagonist, so it is impossible for Gu Xixi to like him.
But Li Cheyan had been Li Xingcheng's follower since childhood, so she naturally acquiesced to his existence.
Huo Lin is Qin Lang's nephew, and Gu Xixi became friends with him because he felt a little guilty.
Each of them gave her a different feeling.
Gu Xixi never thought about whose relationship would deteriorate.
Today, Li Xingcheng became the first person to break through this layer of window paper.
This made Gu Xixi think seriously about what she had done in the past that made Li Xingcheng have such feelings for her.
The scariest thing is not that Li Xingcheng likes her.
Instead, he skipped the dating process and proposed on the spot.
Gu Xixi felt that she seemed to have missed the best opportunity to cut off his thoughts, and now... he had entered an abyss from which there was no cure.
"But to me, you are more than a good friend," Li Xingcheng gently held one of her fingers, carefully, as if touching a fragile gem, "always more than a friend."
"But I really have no plans to fall in love right now, let alone get married." Gu Xixi, who seemed to be in charge, seemed to be slapped by a beast.
She knew that every word she said would change the relationship between her and Li Xingcheng.
Li Xingcheng is Li Mingfeng's biological son and has inherited his unscrupulous style.
But he never uses this kind of operation on Gu Xixi.
Now she knew that she was naive. It wasn't that he didn't need it, but that the time had not come yet to use it.
For example, now is the trigger time!
"So, it's not that you don't like me, nor that you hate me, but you just haven't considered the emotional aspect for the time being?"
Li Xingcheng is a master at picking out the right words, and he actually found a way out for himself from Gu Xixi's words.
Gu Xixi: "...about the same."
"But I don't want you to fall in love with someone else in the future."
“I don’t like other people.”
"That's great," Li Xingcheng smiled and took out a new velvet box, "Xixi, I have a good idea."
Gu Xixi: “!!” What a good solution!
Why does it smell wrong?
Another box appeared. What is that? Could it be handcuffs or something? Are they going to execute her on the spot?
When I opened the box, there was a plain chain inside without any pendant.
Gu Xixi was just curious about what he was going to do when she saw Li Xingcheng string the rings together and hang them forcefully around her neck.
My neck felt cold instantly.
"Xixi, it's not time for you to accept the change in our relationship yet. I'm willing to wait."
"Before that, can I accept the gift in this way?"
"If one day you are willing to open your heart and start a relationship, promise me that you must consider me first, okay?"
Every word
, are all about settling for the next best thing.
It sounds pitiful, like a puppy begging for a little attention from its owner.
But Gu Xixi swore——
If one day she falls in love with someone else, Li Xingcheng can secretly seduce her.
No, she couldn't let him take the initiative. The initiative had to be in her hands.
"Before this, are you sure you won't force me to be with you?"
Acting, right? She is destined to be the future movie queen, who can act better than her!
Li Xingcheng jumped into the trap without hesitation: "You know, I will never make you unhappy."
"Well, we are just friends now." After saying that, she reached out with a cold face and ruthlessly pushed the man away.
The little bit of sweetness just now seemed to have left Li Xingcheng with a lingering aftertaste for a long time.
He obediently retreated to a safe distance, his eyes falling on the diamond ring pendant around her neck: "Don't take it off, okay?"
"I won't take it."
This thing will be Li Xingcheng's seal in the future. As long as the ring is there, the person is alive. If the ring is gone... Li Xingcheng will go crazy.
Although all the plots are now out of control and can be changed at will, Li Xingcheng was originally destined to be the villain.
No matter how a villain changes, can he ever become a good person who is innocent, simple-minded and obedient?
impossible!
Gu Xixi knew very well what kind of style Li Xingcheng was.
But... Li Xingcheng's face really suits her.
Wasn't it because of his looks that I first noticed him?
Gu Xixi gritted her teeth and decided to raise him in her own fish pond first.
"Don't lie to me," the pair of eyes stared at her in the moonlight, their gazes burning, "Don't fall in love with others. If that day really comes, you must tell me."
I'll make him disappear.
