Xia Ning was caught by surprise. She looked into Qiao Yu’s deep eyes with an unknown emotion in her eyes. She moved her eyes away and took a sip of the wine without replying.

But she should not help but feel curious. So what did he like about her? She mocked herself at once, all women are vain.

Qiao Yu looked at Xia Ning’s calm face from the side and continued, “That time, I didn’t know what it was like to like someone and I never thought of why I should marry you. Back then, I thought I had to marry you out of responsibility. Now that I think about it, no. It was just because it was you. I have a million ways to shirk that responsibility away but because of you, I wanted to take on the responsibility. If it was only because of your pretty looks, there were others who were better looking than you. Therefore, I like you because, at that moment, it was you.”

Xia Ning looked down slightly. When she was in love with him, wasn’t it because of the same reason? He was handsome but there were other handsome people around her. But that feeling, his way of talking and walking, everything about him, was not something others could imitate. So, it was him.

“All these years, you were not by my side. Every time I thought about you, I realized that the deepest impression I had of you was that night. Maybe only that night, I was really sure what I wanted,” Qiao Yu stared at Xia Ning and said in a low voice. “That night, I was not drunk! Maybe that little bit of alcohol made me understand what I want.”

Xia Ning’s pupils contracted suddenly. She turned around and looked at Qiao Yu with disbelief. He must be crazy. What nonsense was he talking about?

“It’s getting late. I’m going back to the room to rest.” Xia Ning wanted to leave.

But Qiao Yu was faster than her. He blocked her and she stepped back, leaning on the rail.

“Hear me out, okay?”

Looking at the man in front of her, Xia Ning said with a frown, “What’s done is done. Can we not talk about it?” It was the beginning of a mistake that she did not want to think about or talk about.

“No, if I don’t say it, you’ll probably never know,” Qiao Yu looked down at Xia Ning and said in a low voice. “That night, I knew what I was doing. Even when I took you home, it was arranged by my subconsciousness! What happened later was because I wanted you. Back then, I thought that if I missed this chance, I would lose you forever.”

“You must be crazy!” Xia Ning glared at Qiao Yu. Did he know what he was talking about?

“I also think the old me was crazy!” Qiao Yu mocked himself. “So the next morning when I woke up, I thought I was so shameless. I didn’t even dare to look at you or to find you.” If he had thought about it clearly, the two of them would probably not end up like this right now.

Xia Ning looked at him in shock. She must be hearing something wrong. That night, she thought she was the one who was leading. Yes, she rarely got drunk. But that night, she knew he was leaving and was not in a good mood. She drank a lot, wanting to be drunk. At his place, she could not tell clearly if he kissed her or she kissed him. Because for her, he was like a wine that could make her drunk. Only a tiny bit of him could drive her crazy.

So his coldness after was just because he felt guilty? This was completely different from what she had thought. So was this a misunderstanding?

Qiao Yu raised his left hand to touch Xia Ning’s face, his voice deep and seducing. “Xia Ning, I love you. I fell in love with you a long time ago. Can you give me a second chance?” His right hand fell onto her waist, his body leaning forward. His lips got closer and closer to her lips.
