Making her business and his business into their business meant that they'd have to become one. For Ru, Xiao Zhiren wasn't passive kind of a person but she still believed that he wasn't this proactive either. Now, he was very vocal. Especially when it came to his feelings for her. He was like looking for excuses to make her dumbstruck again and again.
Ru touched Xiao Zhiren's forehead to check his temperature. Although he felt hot to touch, she didn't think it was a fever. "Zhi, when did you become so proactive? Why are you always professing your feelings?"
"Because I am also scared." Xiao Zhiren replied, not minding that she had again found a way to steer away from the conversation.
"Of what?" Ru asked in confusion.
Xiao Zhiren didn't answer immediately. Instead, he looked at the stage to see his brother taking the trophy and smiled before standing up and offering his hand to Ru.
