Chapter 325: Confession of Feelings

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“I don’t think that exception is what I want to hear,” Mei Shu turned her head slightly, avoiding his scorching breath.

A fleeting trace of desolation passed through Lu Si’s eyes. “Be my girlfriend. Then, it’s only natural for me to treat you well, and you won’t need to repay me for anything.”

Mei Shu squinted at him, a faint smile playing on her lips. “What is it that you like about me, exactly?”

“Must one be specific about what they like in someone?” Lu Si replied, his voice full of emotion.

Love should be irrational, after all.

Mei Shu, however, didn’t buy it. “If liking someone is entirely without reason, 1 would rather believe that such affection is merely a delusion.”

“Are you saying that my liking you is a delusion?” Lu Si took a step back, with a momentary shortness of breath. “Perhaps you don’t know, but I’ve never been in a relationship or liked any other girls before. However, now I’m certain that 1 truly like you. It’s absolutely not the delusion you’re suggesting.”

Mei Shu scoffed lightly. “Because you lack the experience of liking someone, you’re more likely to misunderstand your feelings.”

“What about you, have you ever liked someone?” Lu Si seized on the gap in her words and asked immediately.

A tiny crack appeared in Mei Shu’s confident expression, but she quickly concealed it. “No.”

“You’re lying,” Lu Si saw through her emotions that she had swiftly masked. Jealousy and resentment were growing within him. “Tell me, who is that person? Have you ever liked someone? Lu Yan, perhaps?”

“Not Lu Yan.” Mei Shu answered quickly.

She said, “Not Lu Yan” instead of “I haven’t liked anyone.”

Lu Si inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief, but his mood remained sour. “Then who is this man? I can’t think of any other boys your age you’ve been in contact with.”

Lu Si suddenly froze,

as he thought of Mei Shu’s past experiences in the countryside.

Could it be that… she confessed to someone when she was very young?

His fist clenched and relaxed as he felt that his mood was at an all-time low. “No matter who you’ve liked before, as long as you weren’t together, you can start to like me again.”

“Lu Si, why don’t you understand that perhaps you really don’t like me?” Mei Shu couldn’t articulate her current emotional state.

All she wanted now was for Lu Si to take back everything he had said.

Hearing Lu Si’s words, Mei Shu’s heart felt chaotic, and her emotions seemed to be spiraling out of control. She lost the calmness and composure she usually had.

She didn’t want anyone in this life to have the privilege of disturbing her peace of mind.

Lu Si narrowed his eyes, taking in her flustered appearance, and suddenly cornered her against the wall, looming over her. “Mei Shu, are you afraid of me?”

“What could I possibly be afraid of you for?” Even though she said this, Mei Shu swallowed nervously, feeling inexplicably tense.

Lu Si’s eyes darkened with a dangerous glint. “If you don’t want me to like you, is it because you dislike me?”

“I don’t dislike you; on the contrary, 1 think you would make a great friend.” Mei Shu turned her head away, wanting to keep their breaths from intermingling in such close proximity.

The atmosphere around them had become so ambiguous that her heart was once again racing uncontrollably.

No matter how hard she tried to force herself to stay calm, her palms were already so sweaty with nervousness.

“If you don’t dislike me, why are you unwilling to give me a chance? I have money, 1 have looks; I should be within your consideration,” Lu Si continued to use his own intimidation to coax her into revealing her true feelings.

Mei Shu continued to feel flustered and could hardly breathe. She closed her eyes and admitted, “I acknowledge that you have excellent conditions, but don’t you think I’m too young to be considering this right now? 1 haven’t even graduated from high school!”

Lu Si’s body stiffened for a moment, and he abruptly stopped exuding his charm. He stared at Mei Shu with a stern, penetrating gaze, and his voice turned icy. “Do you think I’m old?”

“No, you’re not old! In fact, you’re not much older than me, just a few years. However, I’m not ready for a relationship right now, and how could I get into a romantic relationship with you when I’m still underage?” Mei Shu suddenly found the perfect excuse. She looked at him, her eyes bright and determined.

Lu Si reached out to block her overly bright eyes. He sighed and stood upright. “Fine, 1’11 wait for you to grow up. But before that, don’t fall for anyone else. After all, you’re a studious student who won’t engage in any improper activities.”

Mei He felt that the man’s words were a bit overbearing, but the immediate priority was to quickly brush him off, so she simply nodded and said, “Fine, I won’t be with anyone else until 1 graduate, but you also can’t keep saying you like me to pressure me into being with you. Otherwise, I will never talk to you!”

“Okay,” seeing her rare display of childlike behavior, Lu Si felt joy in his heart and was willing to indulge her in everything..
