This bowl of noodles evoked memories of those passionate days, and also recalled the reunion and separation from six months ago that was first joyful, then heartbreaking.
He looked at her, took a deep breath. His preparation over the past six months was for this moment! The words he had rehearsed countless times in his mind now flowed out:
“Because I love you… always have. Although I cannot and do not want to give up my status as the Ying Pu family heir, under that massive responsibility and pressure, I know what I truly want in this life is only you.”
“I won’t abandon the Ying Pu family, just as I won’t ask you to give up your CEO position. As a preserver of Japanese culture, I’ll be busy, but in my spare time, I’ll try to find time to cook this bowl of noodles for you, because you are my love.”
“…” Tears already blurred her vision.
“I beg you to give me another chance, to let me pursue you again. Perhaps the time we can be together and accompany each other won’t be long, but I promise I’ll strive to improve, to make my noodle-cooking skills better, to cook for you. Okay?”
“…”
“Don’t turn away from me like last time, don’t leave me… At least, let me try to pursue you for six months… No! Three years! Tell me your decision after three years. If by then you still can’t accept me as the Ying Pu family heir, then I will…”
Facing Shang Kexin’s silence, Ying Pu Cangxie’s heart tightened, “I will give it up for you.”
“No!” She suddenly burst into tears, standing up and tightly hugging him.
“Hm?”
Surprise appeared on his handsome face, then he asked tremblingly: “No to what? You don’t want me to pursue you again?”
“That’s right!” She nodded vigorously in his arms.
“Kexin…” He was astonished and confused, his heart in turmoil, “Why not? I really like you. Don’t abandon me just because of how I look!”
Hearing this, she suddenly began to tremble in his arms, her shoulders shaking uncontrollably.
“Ke… xin…”
Ying Pu Cangxie was truly anxious. He grabbed her shoulders, slightly pushing her away to see her expression.
