C55 Xiao Xi be My Girlfriend Is That Right?

"Xi..."

Shen Mingxi closed her eyes tightly until the sound of light music gradually rang out around her. There was also the sound of Shun Dongzhe calling her.

She opened her eyes. The restaurant was not as bright as she thought, but it was not completely dark anymore.

The flickering candle flame drifted along with the breeze, and there were shadows on Shun Dongzhe's handsome face.

Tonight, he was no longer wearing the casual clothes that matched his elegance and handsomeness yesterday. He had changed into a suit that was enough to make him handsome and handsome, with a white shirt collar inside. He had even put on an incomparably formal bow tie, which made him appear incomparably gentlemanly!

Shen Mingxi's small face turned red and she finally stood up slowly.

Just now, the firefly-like lights on the four sides of the restaurant were switched on again. In addition, at the table closest to Shen Mingxi... Countless candles and fresh flowers were arranged in a huge heart-shaped shape when they were put together!

"Dongzhe!" After a long silence, Shen Mingxi finally found her voice.

Wasn't it Shun Dongzhe's birthday party?

Why were there only the two of them here, and even the waiters who brought her in at the beginning were nowhere to be seen?

"Xi." While Shen Mingxi was still immersed in the strange scene in front of her, Shun Dongzhe suddenly took out his hands that were behind his back.

A bouquet of roses that was as red as a ball of fire was sent to Shen Mingxi in the next second.

"Xi, be my girlfriend, okay?"

Caught off guard, Shen Mingxi was so scared that she took two steps back.

Shun Dongzhe's expression changed. He did not care about the flower in his hand. His long arm quickly grabbed Shen Mingxi's thin waist.

"Are you alright?" He never would have thought that such a romantic atmosphere would scare Shen Mingxi. Shun Dongzhe had an apologetic look and looked worriedly at Shen Mingxi who was still in his arms. "Are you hurt anywhere?"

The feeling on her waist was so strange. After Shen Mingxi stood up, she bounced away as if she had been shocked by electricity.

"Yes... This time, Shen Mingxi did not dodge. It was as if she felt that the movement just now did not seem to be good to Shun Dongzhe. She apologized again and again.

Of course, Shun Dongzhe did not expect Shen Mingxi to have such a big reaction. The big bouquet of roses in her hand was still in her hand. He did not know whether it was good to take it back or to continue giving it to Shen Mingxi.

"That, I wanted to say..." Shun Dongzhe smiled awkwardly. The originally romantic atmosphere suddenly changed under the awkward atmosphere between the two of them.

In fact, the words that should have been said had already been said. Shen Mingxi quickly realized what Shun Dongzhe wanted to say next. Her thin body suddenly trembled. "No! No need to say anymore!"

If this matter was a month ago, Shen Mingxi would probably feel that she was the happiest woman in this world.

But there was still Situ Ye in front of her. It was completely impossible for her and Shun Dongzhe!

Shen Mingxi looked at Shun Dongzhe's slightly injured eyes and felt guilty. She quickly lowered her head and did not dare to face him again. "Dongzhe, I'm sorry, but... I really can't..."

She even came to participate in Shun Dongzhe's birthday party because she tried her best to ask Situ Ye to come. If Situ Ye knew, Shun Dongzhe would confess to her like this...

"Sorry!" Shen Mingxi's heart was beating wildly. She suddenly bent down and bowed to Shun Dongzhe. With a red face, she said seriously, "Dongzhe, I have let you down. Please, forget about what happened today!"

In the past, she had thought about Shun Dongzhe. If there was a day when he confessed to her.

However, in her imagination, only her heart, which was about to jump, had never felt this panicked and frightened before.

Shen Mingxi took a deep breath and did not look at the bouquet of red roses again. In the dim dining room, she turned around and left!

"Xi!"

Under Shen Mingxi's deep apology, Shun Dongzhe's heart was filled with anticipation. It had already sunk heavily. He did not expect Shen Mingxi to turn around and leave. Stunned for a moment, he quickly followed and his slender legs caught up with Shen Mingxi in two or three steps.

If it was just a moment ago, Shun Dongzhe would have dared to recklessly pull Shen Mingxi's hand, but he was suddenly rejected. He did not even have the courage to make such a small move.

His slender hands lightly rubbed against the hem of his clothes. Shun Dongzhe deeply felt a touch of helplessness in his heart.

"Dongzhe, I'm really sorry..."

Shen Mingxi's face turned slightly pale when she was suddenly stopped. She hesitated for a second in front of Shun Dongzhe and bowed to him again.

"No!" Shun Dongzhe reached out his hand but clenched his fist. His handsome and young face was full of difficulties. "Xi, I did not mean that. Even if... Even if you reject me, can't we be friends?"

God knew how much courage Shun Dongzhe had to make to dare to do this tonight.

But Shen Mingxi refused him without any hesitation.

At the same time as tearing his confidence apart, if she left like this again, he really did not know how unbearable it would be for him!

After all, they had been neighbors for so many years. Furthermore, Shun Dongzhe did not do anything.

At his age, it was normal to have young feelings.

"En, be friends." Shen Mingxi lowered her head and finally let out a sigh of relief and nodded.

She could not be Shun Dongzhe's boyfriend and girlfriend. She asked herself, if they were friends, she would not want to!

When she heard Shen Mingxi say this, her smile returned to the corner of Shun Dongzhe's mouth in the next second.

After all, he was a well-educated and cultured man. Even if his confession failed, Shun Dongzhe would quickly return to normal.

He looked at Shen Mingxi and a suitable smile hung on his face. "Since you are a friend and it is my birthday tonight, no one will accompany me on my birthday and have a meal with me, okay?"

Shun Dongzhe's voice was very light, as if nothing unexpected had happened just now. The smile on his lips was still the most infatuated smile on Shen Mingxi's face.

After hesitating for a while, Shen Mingxi finally nodded fiercely.

Shun Dongzhe booked the entire restaurant and prepared a candlelight dinner.

Although the confession failed, the candlelight dinner continued.

The young and handsome man and the elegant and slender woman sat on both sides of the long dining table. The air was filled with the fragrance of lily. The candle flame danced and the lanterns hanging on the four walls flickered.

Everything was so beautiful!

Unfortunately, Shen Mingxi did not see all of this beauty in her eyes. Although the environment was romantic, during the time of the meal, she kept looking down at the watch on her wrist.

Until the end, Shun Dongzhe saw her anxiety and did not delay the dinner. He quickly ate the steak on the plate, pushed the chair away, and stood up. He took out the car keys from the pocket of the suit.
