"Of course not." Yi Qianjin said quickly.

The little girl looked at her suspiciously, obviously not believing her words.

"I really...well, I just regard him as a friend, and I definitely have no intention of marrying her." Yi Qianjin said.

"But I do hope she can marry me." A voice suddenly sounded from the side.

Yi Qianjin's face was suddenly filled with embarrassment. He looked to the side and saw that Yuan Yisheng was already there at some point.

The little girl looked sad, "Brother Yuan, you...do you like this sister?"

"Yes, I like her." Yuan Yisheng walked up to the young girl's house, knelt down and said, "It's just that she only treats me as a friend."

Yi Qianjin looked embarrassed. The whole group was chatting as if no one else was around, but the main person in the conversation was her.

"Then I like Brother Yuan. Brother Yuan, can you wait until I grow up and I marry you? I will definitely look very beautiful, very beautiful, even more beautiful than this big sister!"

Yuan Yisheng smiled slightly, "I believe that you will be very beautiful, but if you like someone and can change it so easily, then you can't call it love. I think you will grow up.

, you will definitely meet a boy you like and who also likes you, and that boy will definitely be better than me!"

The little girl listened with half-understanding.

But Yi Qianjin was a little surprised. She didn't expect Yuan Yisheng to say such words. He had always given her the impression that he was relatively cold and not easy to get close to.

Even though he told her that he would become friends with her, she still didn't have the feeling that friends could open up to each other.

It was as if Yuan Yisheng had always given her a feeling of alienation, as if there was a gap between the two of them that could not be easily crossed.

But now, he was saying these words to this little girl so gently, and she suddenly felt that maybe he was not as unapproachable as he seemed on the surface.

After the little girl ran away, Yi Qianjin said to Yuan Yisheng, "Actually, you don't need to use me as a shield. The kid is saying he wants to marry you now. In fact, he just has a good impression of you, and it's not true.

I will marry you when I grow up. If you are a child, don’t take it seriously.”

"Do you really think that what a child said cannot be taken seriously?" He stood up and asked, his dark eyes staring straight at her.

Yi Qianjin choked, and her heartbeat suddenly became extremely fast. Inexplicably, she felt that his eyes were silently condemning her.

But...what does he want to condemn? Just because of what she said just now?

"Adults don't take children's words seriously, but children take them seriously. Sometimes, they even leave a sentence engraved in their hearts for the rest of their lives," he said.

"Then...when you were a child, did you have any words that have always been engraved in your heart?" She couldn't help but ask.

"Yes." He replied, "I have always remembered someone's words deep in my heart, and I can't forget them even if I want to."

In an instant, she actually had the feeling that the person in front of her was Xiao Yuan! If...if he was really Xiao Yuan...

"Also, what I said just now is not to use you as a shield. I really like you, and naturally I will want you to marry me in the future."

She was dumbfounded and her cheeks suddenly turned red.

"Or, do you like Shen Jifei?" he asked.

She thought of what Shen Jifei had told her before, that she would give him an answer after she thought about it carefully.

She knows that she likes Xiao Fei, but is her love for Xiao Fei the childhood sweetheart she grew up with? Or does she like him as a man?

She doesn't know.
