Chapter 147: Confession 2
Huo Xiao and Shen You were staring at each other. For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.
Finally, Huo Xiao made the first move.
He coughed dryly and turned his head slightly to hide his embarrassment.
Shen You looked at his red ears and pursed her lips tightly.
Shen You tilted her head and looked at Huo Xiao. “What did you say? I was in a daze and didn’t hear it clearly.”
When Huo Xiao heard this, he turned to look at Shen You. “Were you asleep just now?”
Shen You nodded and said, “Yes! I felt someone behind me. I was frightened and woke up!”
Huo Xiao seemed to be relieved, and Shen You laughed in her heart.
“Did you say something just now?” Shen You asked again.
Huo Xiao’s brows tightly knitted together. He hesitated for a moment and opened his mouth, but said, “No, you probably heard it wrong.”
“Oh,” Shen You said with some disappointment and did not continue to ask.
Huo Xiao’s expression struggled, but he still had no intention of speaking.
Shen You lowered her head and muttered something in a low voice, but Huo Xiao did not hear it.
Huo Xiao stepped back and sat on a chair at the side, looking at Shen You.
The two of them fell into silence again.
After a long while, Shen You turned to look at Huo Xiao. “It’s getting late. I’m going to sleep.”
Huo Xiao nodded, showing no intention of leaving.
Shen You frowned and looked at Huo Xiao. “I said I’m going to sleep. Shouldn’t you go home?”
Huo Xiao’s eyes were still fixed on Shen You, showing no reaction at all.
Shen You lifted the blanket in a fit of pique to cover her head. “Don’t talk to me when I’m asleep again!”
Shen You covered herself with the blanket and decided to ignore Huo Xiao.
Huo Xiao said, “So you heard it just now, right?”
Shen You paused for a moment before lifting the blanket. “So what if I heard it!”
“You didn’t tell me personally! Should I answer you?” Shen You became angrier as she spoke, glaring at Huo Xiao.
Huo Xiao looked at Shen You’s expression and the corners of his mouth slowly rose. “Do you want to hear me say it again? Personally?”
Huo Xiao looked at Shen You’s face that instantly turned red.
She rolled her eyes and pulled the blanket back, half-covering her face.
Huo Xiao seemed to have made up his mind. He walked to the bedside and sat down on the edge of the bed.
He gently reached out his hand and slowly pulled Shen You’s blanket down, revealing her face.
Huo Xiao stared at Shen You’s face with a solemn expression. “Xiao You, I like you, and I’m willing to let you cling to me for the rest of your life…”
“So, can you not cling to others?” Huo Xiao looked at Shen You without blinking.
Shen You looked at Huo Xiao and suddenly felt a moment of trance.
The reason she once clung to Huo Xiao was to survive, but now?
Seeing Shen You did not react, Huo Xiao’s expression gradually stiffened.
Shen You suddenly blinked her eyes and looked back at Huo Xiao solemnly. “Although I clung to you for many reasons in the past, since you said that I can cling to you for the rest of my life, you must keep your word!”
A smile instantly appeared on Huo Xiao’s face, and his entire face seemed filled with sunshine.
He stretched out a hand and raised it in front of Shen You. “I’m a man of my word!”
Shen You also stretched out a hand and placed it in Huo Xiao’s hand. “You’re a man of your word!”
Shen You did not know when Huo Xiao went home.
Huo Xiao insisted on waiting for her to fall asleep before he left.
However, Shen You was very excited, and it took a long time before she finally calmed down.
It was the first time in her two lives that someone confessed to her. It was also the first time that she had decided that she liked someone!
It was not an easy thing to do!
Shen You kept looking at Huo Xiao with a silly smile. Huo Xiao also allowed her to look at him like a fool.
It was not until she gradually lost consciousness and fell asleep with a smile on her face.
When she woke up early in the morning, Shen You even thought that she had an erotic dream the night before.
But when she picked up her phone and saw a photo of the two of them together, Shen You was sure that everything that happened last night was real.
Shen You hugged her phone and lay on the bed, giggling.
At this moment, Li Ru pushed the door open and walked in.
“Xiao You, what’s happened to you?” Li Ru looked at Shen You on the hospital bed and asked anxiously.
Shen You looked back at Li Ru with a strange gaze.
Li Ru said with some annoyance, “I went out yesterday. When I came back at night, the housekeeper said she received a call saying that you were in the hospital again.”
“You are…” Li Ru looked at Shen You’s slightly flushed face, “Having a fever?”
