The slight warmth penetrated the fabric of her clothes and reached Tang Xili's skin. She looked up at the man so close to her, and her heartbeat began to quicken involuntarily.
Faster than ever before.
One after another, like a rapid downpour, it hit the ground without any rhythm, and was dangerously out of control.
Tang Xili felt confused and subconsciously turned around and wanted to leave.
However, this time, the man did not give her a chance to dodge. He tightened his grip on her wrist, dragged her a few steps, and pressed her against the car door.
Now that you know what he means, you might as well be more honest.
Everyone sees the world differently. If he can't paint the landscape she wants, he is willing to give up.
But her heartbeat was already written in her eyes, and he couldn't be so unclear and end it before it even began.
At the very least, she should know.
Tang Xili was trapped between him and the car by him. Her pupils trembled, and her cold eyes were like a lake after rain, with turbulent waves.
"Mr. Yong, what are you doing? Are you pestering me?" Her voice turned cold.
"No." Yong Zhixu denied, "Ms. Tangxi, I don't mean to pester you, I just want you to know..."
His right hand covered her heart again, his handsome face moved closer, his ridged lips stopped five centimeters from her ear, and he whispered seriously, "This is not an irregular heartbeat, it's a heartbeat."
The scorching breath and magnetic voice inevitably penetrated into Tang Xili's eardrums, and finally hit her heart like a meteorite.
Her dark eyelashes trembled, and her round eyes suddenly widened with disbelief.
Heart-beating?
The man raised his hand, and gently held her face with his long, dry hand. His gaze fell into her eyes, and his voice was gentle, "Just like the moon and the tide, the moon attracts the sea to create tides, and you attract my heart to beat. Miss Tangxi, fate has led us to meet. From the first moment I saw you, I liked you."
[Fate led us to meet. From the first moment I saw you, I fell in love with you...]
The sudden confession in the quiet of the night seemed like an echo effect, echoing in Tang Xili's mind.
The heart in my chest suddenly stopped, and then started beating wildly.
My breathing seemed to be pinched and suddenly stopped.
There were raging waves in her eyes. When she met his eyes that were as hot as the sea, she felt like she was being swept in and drowned.
So, there was nothing wrong with her heart, but she was attracted to him?
And I’ve been moved many times!
This realization made Tang Xili feel incredible. She felt as if she was frozen in time, unable to move in his embrace.
Yong Zhixu didn't move either. He just kept holding her little face, staring at her with his eyes as bright as torches.
The sound of his heartbeat against the beating drums stirred in his ears, it was his own.
The fire was raging in his bones, and his soul was burning for her.
The streets in the early morning were so quiet that only the sound of the wind could be heard. The stars in the sky were flowing quietly, and the street lights were dim, hiding them in a dim light.
The shadows cast on the car door fit together perfectly and are intertwined.
moment.
Tang Xili's pupils moved, she took a deep breath, and then let out a long breath.
Return to peace.
The orchid-like scent sprayed on Yong Zhixu's face. His heart trembled violently, his long straight eyelashes drooped, and his eyes fell on her face.
The girl's soft lips were slightly parted, her eyebrows were well-shaped, her teeth were white and shiny, and she was incredibly beautiful.
The fingers holding her face tightened slightly, and Yong Zhixu's heart was filled with surging thoughts.
"Miss Tangxi..." he began, his voice a little hoarse and sexy, "Life is a good time to enjoy it to the fullest. Why don't we... give it a try?"
Tang Xili's eyes widened, and her heartbeat, which had just been steady, became unbalanced again.
Enjoy life to the fullest when you are happy... Looking back on the first half of her life, it seemed that she had not lived a single day for herself.
Tang Xili was trapped in hatred, and An Wuyang was shackled in pain, and they had never felt any joy.
But she didn't hate the person in front of her. In fact... yes, that's right, she was attracted to him. There was nothing she couldn't admit.
She has never been a hesitant person, so it's okay for her to give it a try.
only……
"Mr. Yong, I have no plans to get married in my lifetime. If you want to make marriage your goal, then I advise you to give up."
Yong Zhixu's eyebrows curved, "Then let's have a love affair that never ends."
If marriage is a shackle for her, then she doesn't want that shackle.
Tang Xili's eyelashes trembled, somewhat shocked by his words. "Mr. Yong, you are not me. Your grandfather is right. You carry the future of your family on your shoulders. Sooner or later, you will get married..."
After a pause, she calmed down and said, "If we have to separate sooner or later, I don't think it's necessary."
Seeing that she had thought so much in such a short while, Yong Zhixu chuckled and rubbed her delicate and smooth cheek with his thumb.
"Miss Tangxi, roses will wither, but they will bloom again. The moon will set, but it will rise again. The erratic winds will not last all morning, and the sudden rain will not last all day. In everything, we should use subtraction. Using addition will only create internal friction and anxiety for ourselves."
"Life is like a journey, and you and I are both travelers. Actually, if we count carefully, this life is only a few decades long. Apart from the time spent eating, working, and sleeping, the time we truly have is very limited. Since it is so short, why can't we follow our heart?"
Tang Xili had never thought that he was so clear-headed. "Mr. Yong, what you said does make sense, but everyone has their own unshirkable responsibilities in life. You should be more rational."
"Ms. Tangxi, I'm not irrational."
He knew very well how much he liked her, and he was also very clear about how he fell for her.
It is true that the family has given him resources and glory, and he should contribute to the family and shoulder his own responsibilities, but——
"Miss Tangxi, your responsibilities do not conflict with yours. There is no Yong family precept that requires marriage. My parents are both open-minded people. My obstacle is your unwillingness."
Tang Xili: "Where's your grandpa?"
Yong Zhixu raised his lips and said, "Don't worry, Miss Tangxi. He has his own plan, but I have a ladder to climb over the wall. I can't cause any trouble."
Seeing him so confident, Tang Xili was a little curious about how he could climb over the wall with such confidence.
She had a hint of teasing in her mind and said lightly: "What if I still don't want to?"
The man was calm and his eyes were gentle as water. "If you still don't want to, then I won't bother you anymore."
(I will keep it in my heart and miss you forever.)
"You are my beloved girl, I won't make things difficult for you."
Doing something knowing it is impossible is his greatest sincerity and respect.
Tang Xili raised her eyebrows, not smiling, "Do you keep your word?"
"Well, I keep my word." The man's fingertips gently stroked her cheek, his expression full of cherishment and concentration, "It's a blessing to meet you, and it's also a blessing to miss you."
