Although she had asked the question, Chi Huan had never actually expected to hear the words "I love you" from his lips.
Sometimes, she felt she couldn't even imagine it.
What it would be like if he said "I love you."
A man as cold and indifferent as he, might never speak of love in his lifetime.
But the world is full of uncertainties.
In that second, Chi Huan couldn't fathom how unpredictable life could be.
She had imagined countless scenarios of him saying "I love you."
But what she waited for didn't belong to any of those myriad possibilities.
Mo Shiqian looked at her intently for a long while without speaking.
Just then, a waiter pushed the door open to serve dishes, saw them sitting close together, felt embarrassed at first, but then pretended not to notice and placed the dishes on the table with ease.
Chi Huan got up and returned to her seat, and this time, the man didn't stop her.
The dishes were served one by one.
