Chapter 816: Secret Crush (4)

Translator: Lordbluefire

Leng Ling’s eyes sparkled with a smile, and she followed Dugu Xiao out of the door.

Leng Ling had always been a woman of few words, so she didn’t bother to say goodbye to Chu Cichen and Shen Ruojing, nor did she inquire further.

After leaving the Chu manor’s gate, Leng Ling saw a black car parked outside.

She followed Dugu Xiao into the car, originally intending to drive herself, but Dugu Xiao was one step ahead of her and naturally took the driver’s seat. “Alright, it’s a long way, can 1 let a girl like you drive?”

Leng Ling felt a warm feeling in her heart.

She moved to sit in the backseat, but before getting in, Dugu Xiao interrupted her, “What are you doing? Do you think I’m your driver? Little Ling, you’ve become more audacious!”

Leng Ling,”…”

She glanced at the passenger seat.

Her heart suddenly raced.

She swallowed nervously, thinking about what Chu Tianye and Shen Ruojing said. She then turned to the passenger seat and sat down.

“Being with 518 for just five days, you really have become less rigid,” Dugu Xiao teased her and started the car.

The car drove on the highway.

As it was night, there were fewer cars on the road, and the streetlights outside shone into the car, illuminating Dugu Xiao’s handsome and somewhat rogue face.

Leng Ling looked at him, and her heart beat even faster.

She had always known that Dugu Xiao was very handsome… She had fallen for this young man at first sight. She had witnessed his desperate training and relentless efforts to become the leader after 518’s death…

And then, she saw him change after 518 came back.

He seemed like a different person.

Now, the young man she admired was back.

Lost in her thoughts, Leng Ling was suddenly interrupted by Dugu Xiao, “What are you looking at? Daydreaming?”

Startled, Leng Ling withdrew her gaze, looking ahead, “Looking at how ugly you are!”

“Huh, ugly? Then who’s handsome? Chu Cichen?” Dugu Xiao felt a bit frustrated, “What’s better about Chu Cichen than me? Is he better looking than me?”

Leng Ling lowered her eyes, “…His personality is better than yours.” “Personality? Impossible!” Dugu Xiao sneered, “The young master has a bad temper and is finicky. 518 often criticized him behind his back! How could his personality be better than mine?”

With a tinge of resentment in his voice, Dugu Xiao continued, “I’m much better than him!”

After saying that, he looked at Leng Ling with a hint of resentment, “Are you taking his side? Little Ling, don’t forget who has been good to you!”

Leng Ling’s mouth twitched, and she didn’t say anything.

Seemingly noticing her strangeness, Dugu Xiao turned his head to look at her.

Perhaps it was the night, or perhaps he was affected by Chu Cichen’s words about marriage, but at this moment, Dugu Xiao suddenly had a thought, “Little Ling, you’ve grown up…”

Leng Ling’s body slightly stiffened, and she looked at him sharply, “What?”

Dugu Xiao looked at her again, “1 said you’ve grown up. I always thought of you as the little kid from back then, but upon closer thought, you’re already twenty-two now, you’ve grown up…”

Leng Ling’s heartbeat suddenly intensified.

Could it be that Dugu Xiao…

While she was still thinking, Dugu Xiao’s words came through, “Do you want to get married?”

Leng Ling’s breath hitched, feeling like she couldn’t breathe!

Marriage…

She pretended to remain calm and looked at Dugu Xiao, “Why do you suddenly bring this up?”

Dugu Xiao said, “I was just thinking, I’m not getting married, but you can’t not get married either. If you find a suitable person, I’ll help you arrange it.”

As soon as he said that, Leng Ling’s heart sank.

She looked at Dugu Xiao incredulously, “What?”

Dugu Xiao remained calm, “I said, if you want to get married…”

He didn’t finish his sentence, and Leng Ling interrupted him, “I’m asking about the first sentence. You don’t plan to get married? You’re never getting married in this lifetime?”

Once that was said, Dugu Xiao nonchalantly responded, “Hmm.”

Leng Ling paused for a moment, her voice tinged with bitterness, “Why?”

“Why?” Dugu Xiao laughed at himself, “Because the girl 1 liked was taken away!”

Leng Ling’s heart sank bit by bit.

Dugu Xiao looked at her, “So, if you like someone, you must tell them quickly. Dugu Xiao looked at her, “So, if you like someone, you must tell them quickly. Otherwise, who knows, they might be taken away one day…”

After saying that, Dugu Xiao seemed to sense Leng Ling’s strangeness and hesitated for a moment, “Do you like someone?”

“…Hmm.”

“Who is it?”

(It’s you..)
