Chapter 98

Chapter 98

Feng Kaiyuan was trying to pretend that he wasnt embarrassed, while Shui Wei was really nervous and embarrassed to get the jacket.

Since she entered the Seventh Precinct until now, she had seen and received information about how Leader Lin, the untouchable flower, was an iceberg and was basically inactive at all times except when working on cases. Not to mention her female colleagues in the Seventh Precinct; even her male colleagues rarely had contact with him in private.

Such a person who couldnt even be affected by Feng Kaiyuan personally gave her a jacket, ancl it was Lin Shihengs own. Feeling the temperature from the jacket and the faint grass fragrance, Shui Wei's alarm bells were ringing.

She wasnt stupid. Leader Lins actions had clearly exceecled the boundaries of a normal superior and subordinate relationship, and when she saw the red rose attached to his white shirt out of the corner of her eye, the corner of Shui Wei's eye twitchecl again.

Oh, no...

Didnt they say that Leader Lin was the flower on the high mountain, which was sacrecl and unattainable? Even purer than those monks in a temple...

To be honest, day after day, looking at such an excellent person of the opposite sex in front of her and with such good looks, people with normal aesthetics would more or less get some fondness in their hearts. But Shui Wei was used to analysing, and immediately after noticing this in her mind, she consciously analysed it.

Although she seemed to be strong, hardworking and cledicated to work, in fact, she was no different from ordinary young girls. She would usually go shopping for clothes after work, wanting someone to accompany her when she was afraicl. So, if she wanted to fall in love, the man should be a more gentle ancl considerate character.

But, if you look at Leader Lin, he was an unwitting workaholic. When working on a case, he would always look cold. He was completely unrelatecl to the words gentle and considerate. It had long been spread in the precinct that his character was of someone who would be single until he grew old. Shui Wei just had some good feelings for him, but it wasnt deep love.

Whats more, as Feng Kaiyuan saicl afterwards, if the confession failed, the embarrassment of the two would either turn them into working awkwarclly together, or one of them would transfer away. In short, it wouldnt end well.

After analysing the results and finding out that there was basically no possibility for her ancl the untouchable flower, Shui Wei decidecl to out off the good feelings at the bottom of her heart.

Had it not been, she wouldnt have been so embarrassed when she was pushecl to confess.

Whats happening now? Was Leader Lin taking it seriously?

Shui Weis heart fluttered for a second, but it was that second that she quickly came to her senses.

According to her and Leader Lins character, if they really got together, it would end in a breakup, and then even the subordinates wouldnt be able to get along, and they would all be embarrassed.

Leader Lin, actually, l confessed to you before because..."

They told you to."

Lin Shiheng intercepted in a light voice. Under Shui Wei's shocked eyes, he reachecl out as if nothing hacl happened ancl helpecl her pull up the jacket, which was about to fall down.

Leader Lin, you knew?"

Not only Shui Wei, but Feng Kaiyuan, who was standing at the side pretending to scratch, but was actually listening with stretched ears, almost dropped his jaw in shook.

No, none of us told you. How did you know?

Lin Shiheng looked up ancl glanced at him.

Maybe you should read a good book that describes micro-expressions."

Feng Kaiyuan chuckled dryly, So its the expressions on our faces that told you. I told Yuan Fang and the others, the look of watching fun was too obvious. Leader Lin is so wise and smart: how could he not see it?

Do you have the right to say that to them?"

Lin Shiheng sniffed, Which time were you not the one who hacl the most fun watching?

Thats right... no, wait!

Feng Kaiyuan jerked his head up, Which time? Leader Lin, you knew about all those times before?"

He thought they were hiding it flawlessly.

Hmm.

This time, Lin Shiheng didnt even bother to say anything back. He simply sneered and stopped looking at him.

Feng Kaiyuans neck chilled at the sneer.

Every time they were watching the fun, this guy knew it well, but since he had pretended he didnt know before, why did he suddenly take the rose today?

Like right now, youre unconsciously wringing your hands ancl pressing your fingertips until theyre white, a state that produces no pain but is strenuous, and youre nervous because of my analysis of you."

In summary, l have concluded...

He calmly looked eyes with a flustered Shui Wei, his tone stern as if he was presenting a closing report, and affirmed, You like me.

Since you like me, and l like you, and you think it was a joke before, then..."

The bright recl rose was brought to Shui Wei's eyes as he passed it forward with his slender fingers.

Shui Wei, will you be my girlfriend?

Shui Wei was beautiful ancl had experiencecl numerous confessions since she was a child, but none of them had ever left her as confused, flustered and completely passive as she felt now.

Moreover, she hacl to admit that this confession was tempting, so tempting that it made her want to throw away all that messy analysis she hacl done before and say yes.

Time seemed to stand still between the two, with Shui Wei not answering and Lin Shiheng maintaining his pose with the flowers and waiting quietly.

It wasnt until much later that the girls slightly raspy voice was heard.

What if we get together and break up later?

Lin Shiheng quickly replied, Were colleagues. We see each other day and night and have the same interests. I dont think the odds of us breaking up are that high.

Leader Lin, thats not true."

Shui Wei raised her eyes and looked at him seriously. As Lin Shiheng saicl before, she was confident and cheerful. When talking to people , she would naturally look them in the eye.

At that moment, she looked Lin Shiheng in the eye ancl said, We only come into contact at work, and you've probably only ever seen me at work. So, if your liking is based on seeing me like this, then l must make it clear to you in advance."

Actually, Im completely different at work and in private. I like watching soap operas; l like snacks, l like beautiful clothes, l also lose my temper and would suddenly get upset. I liked you before, but its 90% because of your good looks. Your professionalism and attitude to life also played a part. but it was only about 10%. In other words, if you werent goocl-looking, my previous liking would have ceased to exist."

It was embarrassing for Shui Wei to say that she was a face person to the person she liked, but she always felt that if a man like Lin Shiheng, who seemed to have no taste for people like her, he must have liked her because of her work.

It was better to make it clear so that no one got embarrassed afterwards.

With an effort to straighten her expression and make herself less vain, she looked eyes with Lin Shiheng and spoke in a clear voice, "Thats how superficial my fondness is. Are you okay with that?

Lin Shiheng, who had been quietly listening, waited for her to ask and then immediately replied, l will protect this face.

Shui Wei: ???

Wasnt the conversation jumping around a bit too quickly?

What... What do you mean?

Lin Shihengs expression remained the same. but his eyes revealed his seriousness.

I will protect this face and keep your superficial fondness alive and well.

(Translator: l cant breathe... laughing... too damn hard... XD)

Shui Wei, in that case, will you be my girlfriend?"

Shui Wei stared blankly at the person in front of her.

Obviously, his expression was serious, ancl his tone of the speech wasnt very gentle, but why was her girlish heart jumping and thumping so nervously?!

With slender hands, he pushed the rose forward again. Behind the pretty flower was Lin Shihengs good-looking face.

Shui Wei lookecl at the man behind the flower without blinking ancl reached out to receive it.

Okay, yes."

Oh, hes so goocl looking!
