C42 Late-night Conversation
Dan Cheng Hao's heart ached when he heard her explanation. He had been thinking about her for so many years, but she had completely forgotten about him. It was truly a waste of his years of infatuation.
He said seriously to Qiao Lu De, "Kick out all the unreliable thoughts in your mind first and remember what I said. I, Dan Cheng Hao, am serious about everything you said. There is not a single falsehood in my words. Please don't doubt my love for you. I don't have any purpose. Please take this relationship seriously. I hope that you can think about me and not give me to Paz all of a sudden. After all, we're not young anymore. I came here with the purpose of getting married."
"Marriage? Second Brother Shan, you mean... you want to marry me?" Qiao Lu De was stunned for a while after hearing these words that came from the bottom of his heart.
Dan Cheng Hao nodded firmly and said, "Yes, if we get along well with each other, according to the direction, the final result will be to enter the marriage hall."
"Hmm? Are you serious?" Qiao Lu asked in disbelief.
Dan Cheng Hao raised his voice exasperatedly: "Qiao Lu De, can you please listen carefully to my words? What I said just now, I was being serious. There was not a single falsehood in my words. Didn't you hear? Don't tell me that your ears are not used to listen to sound. They are just for decoration!"
Qiao Lu De grinned and leaned his head against the window, nodding his head and saying," 'I heard it, I heard it.' I'm not sure! Who would have thought that you would say such things to me? I said earlier, I thought you were just teasing me to have fun. Seeing how serious you are today, I can't get used to it at all!"
Dan Cheng Hao was so angry that he burst into laughter. He had been treated as a joke by her over and over again, so why was he living such a failure?
"Then do you know what I mean now?" Dan Cheng Hao asked in a low voice, "Are my previous confessions really so frivolous? To make you always think that I was playing with you? Didn't it move your heart and make you think about tossing and turning in the middle of the night when you were dreaming?"
Qiao Lu De could not help but laugh out loud, "Dan Cheng Hao, can we talk properly at such a late night? Can you not pretend to be an artistic youth?"
"Didn't you force me to do this? He was indifferent to both the carrot and the stick. Maybe I can move your heart in a different way and no longer reject me from a thousand miles away!" The more Dan Cheng Hao spoke, the more excited he became.
Qiao Lu De covered his mouth and yawned. "Enough, don't be so arrogant. Hurry up and pack up your things, so I can go upstairs to bed early. As a veteran capitalist, please understand our tired hearts of the working masses."
Dan Cheng Hao took the paper bag and asked curiously, "What did you give me?"
"You can open it when I get upstairs later." Qiao Lu De took the bag and was about to get out of the car.
Dan Cheng Hao took out the box and giggled. "Jiao Qiao, does this gift count as a love gift from you?"
Qiao Lu turned around and looked at him in surprise. He asked with a faint smile, "Then can I interpret the ten thousand yuan that I won as your betrothal gift money for me?"
"That can't do! Marry you, and I'll give you ten thousand betrothal gifts? Isn't this embarrassing for myself?"
Qiao Lu De was really tired, so he did not want to continue talking nonsense with him. He opened the car door and said, "Go back slowly and drive slowly. Bye bye."
Dan Cheng Hao quickly pulled her back and asked pitifully, "Are you going to leave just like that? Give me an answer. Are you going to agree or not?"
Qiao Lu had no idea what the two of them could do. The amount of information that he had received tonight was too much. She did not dare to deal with matters of the heart carelessly, so she said to him, "Let me think about it."
"Alright, then I won't force you. After you have made your decision, I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer." Dan Cheng Hao said confidently.
Qiao Lu De was a little embarrassed. He waved his hand at him and entered the unit door. Until now, she had not thought of asking him how he knew which building he lived in and which unit he lived in.
Dan Cheng Hao got off the car, leaned against the car, lit a cigarette, and took a deep drag. A few minutes later, he raised his head and looked up. He quickly locked onto his target. He saw a ball of gentle light there and couldn't help but smile.
The cigarette between his fingers slowly burned. He took a few more deep breaths and flicked the cigarette butt far away. He reached out his hand and took out the box from the car window. He opened it quickly. When he saw the box, he knew it was a tie. He took it out and quickly put it on. Then he got into the car, took a look at the rearview mirror, started the car and left.
Qiao Lu hid behind the curtain and watched Dan Cheng Hao's every move. She curled her lips and thought to herself, I was really poor and couldn't wait until dawn. Why did he change so quickly? But when she thought about it, it was not appropriate to describe him in such a way. Was he poor? Could there still be poor people in the world?
Seeing his car disappear in the night, her tensed heart finally relaxed, and she exhaled heavily. Being confessed to by someone who was out of reach, her heart was really extremely complicated.
To be honest, ever since she broke up with Chu Xiao, she really didn't have any intention of finding a boyfriend. She just wanted to live a peaceful life for a while first. However, who would have thought that at this moment, he would suddenly appear out of nowhere.
People should always look forward. Even if they met someone good, they should seize the opportunity, right? But why did she feel that his feelings for her were so unreliable? Why didn't the sense of security just wander between the two of them?
Qiao Lu De scratched his head in annoyance, not wanting to think about it anymore. In his heart, he thought to himself, Let nature take its course. Let's take things one step at a time. Maybe it was because he was too sensitive that he was truly in love with her!
Dan Cheng Hao drove back to the Silver Supreme. He found Lu Jingyan in the bar upstairs and raised his eyebrows at him with a smug expression.
Lu Jingyan held the wine glass and looked at him with a smile. He said without showing any mercy, "Don't show off. I saw it a long time ago. A tie is enough to make you so happy that you have snot all over your face. I really don't know whether to sympathize with you, sympathize with you, or pity you."
"Why pity me? Our relationship has just taken a qualitative leap!" Dan Cheng Hao adjusted his tie with his hand and said affirmatively.
Lu Jingyan smiled contemptuously, "A qualitative leap? Is it to give you a tie and let you run around the world like a dog?"
"Scram!" Dan Cheng Hao mocked, "Take care of yourself and find your customers first before you mock me!"
