Seeing that the junior high school girl had gotten into bed, Xu Zhimu also felt that he was too weak and had nowhere to vent his feelings.

He also rolled up his quilt, sighed and turned around to get ready for bed.

After a while, Liu Ningqing suddenly revealed a pair of big eyes. Looking at Xu Zhimu's somewhat depressed back, she hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her finger to poke him gently.

"Zhimu..."

"Um?"

Xu Zhimu turned around and looked at her, his eyes still a little depressed.

Liu Ningqing timidly retracted her finger, a shy light flashing in her eyes.

In fact, just now, she almost did those embarrassing things with him.

But she still felt...a little weird, and he had caught a cold and had to take a good rest.

But seeing his aggrieved and disappointed expression, she couldn't help but say: "You, are you still cold..."

"It's okay. Just keep it cold if it's cold. No one will feel bad about it anyway."

Xu Zhimu's heart moved, but he sighed slightly, rolled up the quilt again, closed his eyes and prepared to sleep.

But his eyes narrowed slightly, and he saw the tangled expression on the junior girl's face, and finally got closer to him.

Then he slowly opened his quilt and poked him again: "Then let's... let's sleep together..."

Xu Zhimu immediately opened his eyes.

"sleep together?"

"Just sleeping in bed together..."

Liu Ningqing looked at the gleam in his eyes and emphasized with a blush.

Xu Zhimu originally wanted to push the envelope, but he knew the junior sister's temper, and she would accept soft things rather than hard ones.

If you can take the first step forward, it counts as one step, and if you can take advantage of it, it counts as one step.

Xu Zhimu got into her bed little by little, reached out and hugged her soft waist, and buried his head in her arms.

"Qingqing, you're so kind. It's better to sleep together to keep warm."

Xu Zhimu sighed, some things always have to be lost once before you realize how valuable they are.

Liu Ningqing was hugged by him, and the familiar smell and warmth of his body made her feel like she had found a long-lost sense of security.

She originally wanted to say that she could only sleep together and not move her hands or feet, but after listening to his words, Liu Ningqing's heart softened and she still didn't say it out loud.

Instead, he slowly stretched out his hand to support his head and took her out of his arms.

"Don't move around...sleep."

"It's been a long time since I hugged you. Let me feel it again."

Xu Zhimu hugged her close to her again, smelling the faint lotus-like fragrance on her body, which reached his nose and made his whole heart feel happy.

It's soft and warm, making people reluctant to let go.

Like a child, Liu Ningqing slowly hugged him.

Xu Zhimu has always been careless, but Liu Ningqing let him go, but she was still thinking about that matter in her mind...

She also slowly stretched out her arms to hug him, murmuring in her heart.

Why, when he obviously likes me so much, he still does that...

Xu Zhimu was also thinking about how to confess his affair with Ye Luojia to the junior sister.

But now is not the time, otherwise the junior girl will definitely be even more unable to accept the blow.

But procrastinating is not the answer. He is a man and if he has incurred debts, he must resolve them first.

"Qingqing."

Xu Zhimu raised his head from her, and the two of them were almost close to each other. Xu Zhimu called her softly.

"Well..." Liu Ningqing also hummed, and she buried her face in Xu Zhimu's chest.

"Qingqing, I want to tell you... about Ye Luojia and I..."

Xu Zhimu was also in a state of confusion, and Liu Ningqing's body also trembled. She did not speak, but remained quietly in his arms.

Xu Zhimu took a deep breath and hugged the junior sister's body: "Maybe Ye Luojia and I have a different relationship than you think...I'm not doing it for money...She is actually very pitiful...Like Qingqing

Just like you, although she is the leader of a listed company, she also comes from a single-parent family that lacked maternal love since childhood..."

Xu Zhimu knew that if he directly told the junior high school sister that he could not let go of Ye Luojia, the junior high school sister would definitely not accept it.

Maybe all the efforts in the past half month will turn into bubbles.

But he also had to explain that the relationship between him and Ye Luojia was definitely not about money...

Xu Zhimu just talked about some of Ye Luojia's life experience. Her situation is somewhat similar to that of her junior high school sister. They both lost their mothers when they were young, and they also know the sense of inferiority and powerlessness that ordinary people in the upper class have when facing money.

Liu Ningqing said nothing and just buried her face in Xu Zhimu's chest.

"It's all my fault, Qingqing, if you want to blame, just blame me..."

After Xu Zhimu finished speaking softly, he felt that the pajamas on his chest had been wetted. The girl in his arms was trembling, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

Xu Zhimu felt a pain in his heart. Sure enough, even this explanation was still too cruel for the junior girl.

"Qingqing, I'm sorry."

Xu Zhimu reached out his hand to wipe the tears from her eyes, but Liu Ningqing suddenly grabbed her.

Liu Ningqing's eyes were dim with tears, and her gentle eyes now carried a hint of stubbornness and determination: "So... do you like her?"

Xu Zhimu looked at the junior sister's eyes.

He knew that this was a choice. If he chose Ye Luojia, the junior sister might...

Xu Zhimu looked into her eyes without any hesitation: "My favorite person will always be you, and no one will waver."

Liu Ningqing bit her lip, almost drawing blood, and looked at Xu Zhimu's serious eyes.

Those deep eyes had already been engraved in her mind, and she never doubted every word Xu Zhimu said.

But...but my heart still hurts...

"Qingqing, you will always be my second choice... I am a bit greedy, but you will always be my most important bottom line... My last choice will always be you."

Xu Zhimu looked deeply into her eyes.

Liu Ningqing's lips were bitten and bloodshot. She shook her head slightly. Her heart was really confused and she really didn't know how to answer him.

Xu Zhimu looked at her closely, and finally said with a serious face: "Qingqing, can we get engaged?"

The sudden words suppressed all the confusion and struggle in Liu Ningqing's heart for a moment.

Xu Zhimu reached out his fingers to touch the edge of her lips in distress, and looking at the blood on it, Xu Zhimu knew.

Now we must give the junior sister an identity that no one can surpass, and let everyone witness it to give the junior sister the greatest sense of security.

The status of girlfriend is too thin, but fiancée is very important.

Liu Ningqing was stunned, with tears still in the corners of her eyes. Xu Zhimu's words undoubtedly provided a reassurance in her heart.

But it was also so sudden that she opened her small mouth, but for a moment it seemed as if she had lost her voice.

Xu Zhimu also smiled slowly. He looked at the younger sister's cheek and said softly: "Qingqing, promise me, when we come home next time, we will get engaged and let my parents, grandparents, and others inform me."

Father-in-law..."

Xu Zhimu drew a big and fragrant cake for the elementary school girl. Of course, this was also what Xu Zhimu really thought in his heart.

He really wanted to marry her.

The warm words of family members made Liu Ningqing's little heart beat a little unsatisfactorily.

Get engaged.

Liu Ningqing also really wanted to marry him.

But what did he mean by what he just said?

Him and her.

Is it going to end or continue to be disconnected?

What Xu Zhimu said just now echoed in his mind. Ye Luojia's situation...she could relate to it.

But feelings are inherently selfish.

Liu Ningqing was more entangled than ever before, but she finally felt some peace in her heart.

She was silent for a long time, and finally she raised her eyes and looked at the person in front of her whom she loved so much.

"You, you and her..."

"I will make things clear to her, but Qingqing you will always be my final choice. Only on this matter, please believe me."

Xu Zhimu did not give a positive answer because he also knew that he was also unable to make an accurate choice now.
