Chapter 517 - Don't ask me silly questions

After driving for a while under Xu Tang's curious gaze, they finally reached their destination. 

"We're here." She said after stopping the car. 

Xu Tang looked around. Why were they at an open field? "Here?" 

Lu Meili opened the car door from his side and unfastened his seat belt. He jumped out before she could push him out. Knowing her wild personality, that was exactly what she was going to do. "You are a bad person." He complained. 

Lu Meili got out and grabbed his hand. "But you still call me your little angel. Are angels bad?" 

"What angel? You are obviously a devil straight out of hell." He humphed. "It's so strange." 

"What's strange?" 

"Do you have dual personality disorder? If not, how is it possible that such a beautiful and nice woman is actually a demon queen? You are quite sweet you know." 

Lu Meili blinked and looked straight ahead. He thought she was sweet? 

They had arrived at the spot she wanted. 

Xu Tang recognized this place. "You brought me here after your eighteenth birthday. Why are we here again?" 

Lu Meili held his hand and pointed at a spot. "When we were kids, we played in this field quite often." 

"I know. You said that a million times already." 

She looked at his face seriously. "Years ago, something happened here." 

"What?" 

In the next second, she pushed him and pulled him back before he fell down the cliff. 

"Hey! I know you're swift. But you don't have to risk people's lives to prove it!" 

Lu Meili rolled her eyes. "Such a coward. How are you even able to tell people that you're a man?" 

"I am. Do you want me to prove it?" He narrowed his eyes and lowered his head to meet her gaze. 

She pushed him off. "No thank you. I'm talking about serious matters here." 

Xu Tang looked at her and waited for her to talk about her serious matters. 

"Tangtang, nineteen years ago, you came here and saw something that frightened you. What was it?" 

Xu Tang was annoyed. "Why are you asking me this question again? I told you already. I don't remember ever coming here as a child. Why do you insist on asking this over and over?" 

"I'm asking because what you saw scared you. You suffered from post traumatic depression for years and when you finally overcame it, you changed. You're no longer the Tangtang you used to be when we were kids." 

He shrugged her hand of. "That's because I grew up. How can you expect me to be a child forever?" 

Lu Meili forcefully grabbed that hand again. "That's not what I mean. You used to be very friendly and kind. After that incident, you wouldn't let anyone get within two steps of your radius. I was the only one who was able to be your friend because I forcibly stuck onto you. 

I think what happened is something quite significant. You really don't remember?" 

Xu Tang glared at her fiercely. Why was this woman so stubborn? "You know better than anyone why I suffered from post traumatic depression." 

"Yes! And it's not because of the reason you think." She went on her tiptoes and covered his eyes using her soft hands. "Try to remember." 

Xu Tang took her hand off his face and twisted it so hard that she yelped in pain. "Listen, there's nothing to remember. You better not bring me here and ask me such silly questions again." 

She pulled her hand away. She was only trying to help him. Why did he have to be so mean? 

She humphed and walked off. 

He held her arm as she walked past him. "Meili wait! I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be rude. I.." 

But she wasn't willing to listen to him. She pulled her arm off his grip. "I will not bring you here again. Neither will I ask you such silly questions." With that, she walked to her car. 

Xu Tang watched her get in and expected her to drive off. He took out his phone preparing to call his chauffeur to pick him up. 

The passenger door of Lu Meili's car opened. "I thought you disliked this place. What? Now you want to remain here?" The sharp tongued Lu Meili was at it again. 

Xu Tang was pleasantly surprised. She didn't dump him here? "Did you take the wrong medicine today? You are too kind." 

"You are the one who took the wrong medicine. Get in right now or I'll really dump you here." 

He zipped his mouth and entered the car, looking like a scared cat. 

Lu Meili couldn't stop herself from laughing. "Why do you look so scared? Do you think I'd eat you up?" 

Xu Tang fastened his seatbelt cautiously. I don't just think you would eat me up. I know you will. 

Lu Meili put a hand over his shoulder, making one shocked at how fast her mood changed. Wasn't she angry just a second ago? 

She smiled sweetly. "I wouldn't hurt the people I love." 

Xu Tang felt an explosion in his brain for a moment. He laughed her off. "Can you not make it sound that way? Those who don't know might think you are in love with me." 

Lu Meili chuckled and tore her gaze from him, scared to look into his eyes. "You're wrong. Those who don't know would think we are just friends. But those who know will know that I'm in love with you." 

"What?!" Her words struck him like lighting. What did she just say? 

Lu Meili sighed. She didn't expect that she would suddenly reveal her feelings to him. However, it was already done. She couldn't turn back. 

"That's right. Xu Tang, I'm in love with you. I have... I have loved you for many years."
