2527: Prove It

Prove It

Shi Xiaoyue didn't tell Han Chenglin about the message she sent to Chu Peihan.0

When Chu Peihan read the message, her anger towards Shi Xiaoyue quickly went away. In fact, she wasn't really mad at Shi Xiaoyue, and Shi Xiaoyue's reasons weren't unacceptable, but should she give Han Chenglin a chance?

She didn't know. Her mind was in a total mess.

She didn't think that Han Chenglin was a bad guy. Actually, she had a very good impression of him, and honestly didn't hate him. Instead, she liked him.

However, she never planned to get into a romantic relationship within this or next year, so Han Chenglin's sudden confession threw her into confusion.

Even though Shi Xiaoyue said that she could give him a chance and break up with him if he wasn't the right one, she felt it was a hard decision.

It would be irresponsible if she got together with Han Chenglin only because she wanted to try a romantic relationship.

She was also aware that not every couple ended up getting married in the end. She wasn't naive, and understood that she might not have good luck and find her Mr. Right after a single try.

Like what Shi Xiaoyue said, it would take time to know whether she found the right man.

Anyway, if she was sure of it, she wouldn't hesitate, but now she hesitated to accept Han Chenglin's love for her. However, she didn't want to reject Han Chenglin either.

She had no intention of wasting Han Chenglin's time by not accepting him and not rejecting him. She simply felt that she needed more time to get to know him better.

Chu Peihan didn't reply to Shi Xiaoyue's message, because she didn't know what to say.

After waiting for a long while, Shi Xiaoyue understood that Chu Peihan must be thinking about it seriously. She felt guilty for keeping her family connection with Han Chenglin a secret from Chu Peihan, but she didn't regret doing that.

Back in their school, Chu Peihan took out her phone. She thought for a while, then sent Han Chenglin a message and told him that she had arrived.

Whether she accepted Han Chenglin or not, they were still friends. So to prevent him from worrying about her, she decided to send him a message.

When Han Chenglin received Chu Peihan's message, he had just driven Shi Xiaoyue back home. Watching Shi Xiaoyue walking into the block, he sat in his car by the side of the road.

Han Chenglin was really worried that he might not receive Chu Peihan's message, and he wouldn't feel relieved until he saw it now.

Afterwards, Han Chenglin replied to Chu Peihan: Peihan, I was very serious tonight. I know it's too sudden for you, and you don't know what to do. I actually didn't plan to do it so early precisely because I was afraid that it would be too sudden. But my family connection with Xiaoyue was exposed and I didn't want you to misunderstand us. I hope we can still be friends.

I won't force you to give me an answer right now. I just hope that you can give me a chance to pursue you till you're willing to accept me.

Reading Han Chenglin's message, Chu Peihan was lost in thought for a long while. She remembered how they met "by chance" every time.

Once in a karaoke bar, Shi Xiaoyue went out for a while, then came back with Han Chenglin. Shi Xiaoyue said that they met by accident.

Once in a park, she had an appointment with Shi Xiaoyue, but Shi Xiaoyue was delayed by something, then she saw Han Chenglin.

In the end, Shi Xiaoyue was half an hour late. Obviously, Shi Xiaoyue wanted to give Han Chenglin more time to be alone with her.

Such an accident had happened many times.

In fact, Chu Peihan didn't feel mad at all when she remembered all the above, because Shi Xiaoyue didn't hurt her. Shi Xiaoyue simply wanted to set her up with Han Chenglin out of goodwill.

Now she wondered whether Han Chenglin came to City F for a business trip in order to see her.

Thinking of that, Chu Peihan suddenly felt touched. She could see how much Han Chenglin cared about her.

However, she still felt it wasn't easy for her to accept Han Chenglin right now.

After a long while, right when Han Chenglin thought that Chu Peihan wouldn't reply to him, Chu Peihan sent him a message.

Chu Peihan: Thank you for your understanding. It's indeed a big surprise for me. I honestly don't know how to face you. I'm sorry, I can't give you an answer right away either, because we're not very familiar. As for the chance you want, I think you can ask yourself for it. No one else can give you a chance. Alright, that's it. I need to go to bed now.

Actually, Chu Peihan agreed to give Han Chenglin a chance, but she didn't say it straightforwardly. If she did, it might make Han Chenglin think that she already accepted him.

She didn't want to fool him.

Chu Peihan didn't really go to sleep, and she simply had no idea what to say to Han Chenglin.

Reading Chu Piehan's reply, Han Chenglin understood her meaning, so he was very happy. At least, Chu Peihan didn't reject him and was willing to get to know him better.

He also knew that Chu Peihan couldn't go to bed so early, but he understood that he shouldn't bother her, so he simply sent her a good night.

It was Chu Peihan who refused to talk with Han Chenglin any longer, but she somehow felt upset when she read his message.

…

After watching the film, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting returned to Mid-Levels Mansion.

Back in the house, Gu Ning received another surprise.

Leng Shaoting had not only prepared flowers for her today, he also prepared a necklace for her in the middle of the bed in the master bedroom. The necklace was surrounded by rose petals in the shape of a heart.

"Where did you learn all of this?" Gu Ning asked Leng Shaoting.

"From the Internet," said Leng Shaoting honestly. He didn't say that it was his idea just to make Gu Ning feel more touched.

Normally, if it was his own idea, it would be more sincere. However, Gu Ning didn't care about that, as long as Leng Shaoting treated her sincerely.

If he didn't, he wouldn't have spent time doing his homework on the Internet! In addition, Leng Shaoting had no sense of romance, so it would be really difficult for him to become romantic by himself.

"Thanks, I love it." Gu Ning smiled. No matter what Leng Shaoting sent her, she loved it very much.

"Won't you do something to prove it?" Leng Shaoting wasn't satisfied with Gu Ning's verbal thanks. He wanted something physical.
