He smiles, looking at her, "I still am in love with you, Shi."
His reply makes Shi Lian uncomfortable. The sunlight making her eyes narrow.
She gives him a nervous laugh, "Oh god, that line did make me sweat."
He chuckles, "Don't worry, I am not going to propose to you or force you to love me. It's just, my love for you has never faded."
She feels a little guilty remembering when she said that her feelings for him have faded. When Atian sees Shi Lian getting upset, he quickly changes the topic, making a joke. "If in case, that Fu Zichen breaks your heart, you can always come to me." He passes her a wink which makes her laugh.
"Then I'll probably prefer to be single after then," she says with humor-filled in her tone.
Shi Lian do not realize when she reached home. It was fun to jog with Atian and she is wondering to go again if she gets time.
