The situation had developed to this point, and Xu Niannian could no longer deceive herself into thinking she was smitten with herself.
Similarly, Jin Yu couldn't continue to deceive her by saying he didn't like her.
He nodded, his pitch-black pupils fixated on her, focused and earnest, "Yes, I like you, very much. Could you please not like Liu Wendong?"
It wasn't just women who became nervous and flustered when facing the object of their affections; men did as well.
While saying these words, Jin Yu felt his heart "thump thump" with beats so rapid he couldn't suppress them.
After mustering the courage to speak, he felt both hopeful and afraid.
Fearful of the reply of rejection, he looked at her, anxious and uneasy, like a prisoner awaiting his fate.
But his face was expressionless, his tone calm, even with Xu Niannian standing right before him, she couldn't sense his nervousness.
