Su Zhinian knew it was time for him to speak. However, even as he stared into her eyes, his lips were tightly sealed. As time trickled by, he still did not seem to want to answer her question.
That afternoon, when she accidentally sent him that message, "I love you", he had also responded by putting up a wall of silence. Now, he was doing that same thing.
What is he thinking? Is he going to reject me like I was afraid of?
When Song Qingchun waited for an answer from Su Zhinian, she started to sweat with worry. She grabbed the edge of her shirt, trying to find something to do so that she would not appear so flustered. Then she forced a smile at Su Zhinian and slowly added, "I admit, I never thought you would be such an integral part of my life, but after I've admitted to the truth in my heart, I can give up any part of my life but you… so can you please say yes?"
Su Zhinian still replied with silence.
