Chapter 212: Chapter 212 I Know You Used to Like Me
Su Zixi was taken aback, somewhat puzzled, “What opportunity?”
“Zixi, I like you,” he said softly. “Even before I knew it was you who saved me... My initial harshness towards you was simply because I didn’t want to admit that I was attracted to you. Today’s wedding, I was already very reluctant, and knowing the truth, I even breathed a sigh of relief because I had a good reason to call off the wedding. Initially, I didn’t know why, but now I understand, it’s because of you. I have never loved Su Lianxi, whether she is my savior or not. But you are different!”
Su Zixi’s breathing gradually became rapid.
Ning Yichen knew the truth, so he was asking for her forgiveness... This, she was not too surprised about.
But his sudden confession made her feel incredibly unreal!
How... How could this be possible? Why did she find it so absurd?
...
“Zixi, perhaps you don’t believe me now,” he said with a bitter smile. “I know I was too harsh before, so it’s okay if you don’t trust me, but please give me a chance and don’t push me away, okay?”
“Okay,” he smiled, his voice gentle. “I will wait for you.”
“I... I didn’t mean that!” she said, somewhat annoyed. “I told you last time, the person I like is Jingyao!”
The light in Ning Yichen’s eyes dimmed, and he nodded gently, “I know. And I also know that you once liked me.”
“That was in the past,” Su Zixi quickly retorted. “And just like how you once liked Su Lianxi, the person I liked was the imaginary you, especially since back then you were lying in a hospital bed, and I didn’t really know what kind of person you were!”
“So, the real me disappointed you, is that it?” Ning Yichen said with self-mockery. “But, to me, you are just like... I imagined.”
Su Zixi, unsure of how to handle the situation, left him with a parting shot, “I’m leaving, do as you please!”
With that, she turned around and ran off quickly.
Su Zixi ran to the dormitory building and caught her breath, about to go upstairs. But then she heard footsteps behind her, almost as if they were following her.
