CHAPTER 517

"Not just any feelings. I am in love with you."

Shin blinked once, tried and for the third time. But what he heard still did not change and the lady before Hindus not look like she was out here for some prank or a joke.

She meant business. Her showed how sincere and in love she was. And let's not even talk about the blush she was trying to ignore so that she could at least look bold.

"I love you, Shin. I really do. What do you think about me? Do you also have feelings for me? Any feelings at all?" Jia Liling asked.

She bit her lips in expectation. She would really be really if he said he feels a little bit of likeness for her.

"I..." Shin opened his mouth to say something but no words could be formed apart from the one he could produce.

What will he say? He has never had a girl say she lived him up front like Jia Liling. And he could not find it in his heart to just utter his usual cold word, no.

Jia Liling was too cute and humble to be rejected like that. But if he really thinks if it genies like this lady. She was cheerful and liked for everyone to share in that same happiness.

She had a load of manners and is selfless and respectful. And Shin liked all those qualities.

'So that means I like her, right? Yeah. It should mean that,' he thought.

"Uhm Shin," she called out to him.

Now was the time where she finds herself disliking his quiet side. His silence was unbearable. Or could it be that he...

"If you don't feel anything, it's alright to say it," she said as she blushed led back the tears that was threatening to fall down from her eyes.

"That's not the problem," Shin murmured.

"Huh?" She tilted her head to the side.

Shaking his head, he sighed. How can he make her understand. "It's not that I do not feel anything. The problem is just that I don't know what to feel."

Jia Liling was still confused. What does he mean by he does not know what to feel? It is just an answer of yes or no. He should at least know what his own heart and mind feels, right?

"I have never been in this kind of a situation before. Neither have I said those words to any woman," Shin explained further.

Jia Liling nodded as she now understood. It was all clear. "So you don't have... You don't feel the same as I do. I-It's fine. I can't force you to have feelings for me anyway. Thank you for at least hearing me out. Sorry for disturbing your work."

Bowing a little, she then straightened her back and gave him a small smile. She turned in her feet and took several continuous steps away from him.

Shin began to feel guilty. The sight of her retreating back was downcast and hopeless. Without even thinking he followed after her as fast as he could.

"Jia Liling, wait," he got a hold of her arm.

Jia Liling instantly turned to meet his gaze. Her eyes were teary and her lips were shaking from how hard she was trying to control her tears.

"You did not let me finish," Shin breathed out. "I said I have never had someone come up to me and tell me that they love me. But that does not mean that I don't have any feelings for you at all."

Jia Liling was taken aback by his words. The little lit candle of hope that was at the brink of dying out started getting brighter.

"I like you. But my feelings are not as strong as yours but if you are willing, I can give it try and see where it leads us. I promise not to waste your time."

Jia Liling swore that her heart leapt for joy at those three words. I like you. It sounded so sweet coming from him.

"Thank you," she pounced into his body as her hands wrapped around his waist.

She was hugging him. Shin's breath stilled at once and his body went stiff. It was unexpected and he had no idea if he should hug her back or pat her head or... Whatever.

Before hisund could settle on a decision Jia Liling pulled away and apologised.

"You are not going to regret giving us a chance. I will make you the most happiest boyfriend in the world," Jia Liling said with determination and excitement.

"O-Okay."

"See ya, tomorrow. Bye," she picked his cheek before running off to God knows where.

After a while, Shin's body regain its movement and his right hand raised to touch the right side of his face where she had pecked him.

"I am someone's boyfriend," he mumbled in disbelief.

~Back at City Z~

The lunch was still going on. But instead of a normal atmosphere, it was awkward and a little but tensed.

"Han Duyi, I heard that you just completed your second degree in a business course," Mrs Ning broke the silence.

"You sure heard right, aunt. It was not easy, I must say. I returned from the States last month to let my added knowledge and skills be of good use in the family's business. Everything is booming now," Han Duyi boastedbof his achievements.

"Oh! What a surprise. My Chaoxiang has a degree in both business and medical professional field. He is considered as one of best yoyng genius doctors in China and is a fine businessman," Ning Xiaozhi said nonchalantly.

Han Duyi who was swelling in pride instantly deflated when he heard all of her words. He could feel the mockery in them. She was indirectly telling him that his standards had no match for hers.

Compared to a double degree holder of business and health, he was just a second degree holder of one.

"My fiance, is just too smart."
