The 70s Novel: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Lie Down-Chapter 304: Confession of Feelings

Cheng Xue was taken aback by his sudden action.

"You, what are you doing?" She was sitting, he was standing, and she could only look up at him.

Wang Jia Bao actually wasn’t as calm as he appeared. Just now, his palms had already started sweating from nervousness.

"I, I have something to say, to you..."

It was a redundant statement, but at least he stuttered and opened his mouth.

Upon hearing him speak, Cheng Xue noticed his nervousness and couldn’t help but laugh. "Why are you so nervous? Just say what you have to say..."

Cheng Xue was charming and cute, her oval face flushed, cherry-red lips pouting, her almond-shaped eyes clear and bright, filled with a mischievous smile, innocent, with not a hint of worry.

This made the tormented Wang Jia Bao feel a bit unbalanced. I’m here worried sick about you, but you’re carefree, that’s not fair...

"I like you, Xiao Xue, let’s date." In a moment of impulse, the confession slipped out, and after saying it, he didn’t find it difficult to speak. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

In fact, he spoke more and more smoothly, "We’re both still in school, we can get engaged first and get married after graduation. I’ve always been well-behaved in school, never talking more than necessary with girls, and in the future, you should avoid boys with ulterior motives... It would be best if we could invite some of your classmates to our engagement, let them spread the word around school, so those with no sense could back off..."

Cheng Xue was so shocked by his words that she was dizzy and muddled.

Watching his chattering mouth, she only wanted to shut him up immediately.

With that thought, she acted, reaching out her small hand to cover his mouth.

The warm touch from her palm shot straight to her heart, and with her heart pounding like a deer, she said somewhat sharply, "What are you talking about... No more nonsense."

Wang Jia Bao tightly stared into her eyes, seeing the incredulity and fluster in them.

His heart ached slightly, did she really have no feelings for him? No, he didn’t believe it. They had always been so in sync.

Wang Jia Bao’s eyes dimmed, and he tentatively stuck out his tongue to lick her palm.

Cheng Xue’s eyes widened like saucers, scaring her into immediately wanting to retract her hand.

But just as it withdrew a centimeter away, a large hand wrapped around her wrist, holding it in place.

"I’m serious about everything I said. We’ve known each other for so long, you should know what kind of person I am." Wang Jia Bao’s deep voice was somewhat hoarse, every word seemed to carry a thousand emotions, murmuring softly, "I thought we understood each other..."

"I, I..." Cheng Xue was already at a loss from his wave of actions, her mind blank.

"Do you really have no feelings for me? Do you have to be so heartless?" Wang Jia Bao’s eyes were filled with deep sadness and disappointment.

He gently pulled her hand, kissing her palm with sincerity.

Cheng Xue trembled slightly, a tingling current flowing from her palm throughout her body. She shrank her palm, using a slight force to break free from his grip.

Actually, Wang Jia Bao hadn’t been holding firmly.

Seeing her struggle, his face instantly turned bitter, showing a painful, sad expression, lost, "Do you really not like me at all? Not even a little bit? Feelings can grow, as long as you have a little bit of liking, and I have countless likes, together we would have countless likes..."

Cheng Xue was the type who was soft-hearted, not hard. She initially wanted to scold him, but she couldn’t bear to, seeing those unspeakable eyes... This person wasn’t just anyone, he was her best friend, whom she trusted with almost everything, how did it turn out like this... She didn’t want that...

"Let me get up first, you’re making me unable to think..." Cheng Xue’s face blushed slightly, pushing against his chest, wanting to rise from the chair.

Wang Jia Bao didn’t hear the answer he wanted, feeling unsatisfied, but didn’t forcefully insist, standing up with her.

Cheng Xue breathed a slight sigh of relief, the feeling of suffocating oppression wasn’t good, she didn’t like it.

The two of them stared at each other silently for a long time, Wang Jia Bao stubbornly looking at her, she looked at him with annoyance, helplessness, and confusion, finally becoming relaxed...

Cheng Xue looked at him and said, dejectedly, "There’s a generation gap between us..."

"Haven’t we always gone by our own rules? It’ll be the same in the future." Wang Jia Bao’s heart eased, arguing back.

Cheng Xue was still a bit vexed, "How did you end up liking me? I don’t know anything..."

Wang Jia Bao pressed his lips together, thinking seriously, not perfunctory, but finally said, "I know, I’m just as clueless. But in the future, we can work at it together."

He thought about some of her good qualities, unfortunately, things like being virtuous didn’t quite fit her. However, she still had many merits, and Wang Jia Bao wasn’t stingy with his praise.

"I just like your personality, cheerful and optimistic, generous and big-hearted. If we live together, every day will surely be very happy and joyful." Wang Jia Bao genuinely thought so.

"And my mom has always liked you too, so you won’t have any mother-in-law conflicts in the future..."

"That’s not certain." Hearing about mother-in-law issues, Cheng Xue couldn’t help but retort, "She likes me now because I’m a relative of the Wang Family, I’m a guest, which is to say, an outsider. Naturally, she’s polite to me. If you and I really became a couple in the future, once our roles change, as a daughter-in-law, I know nothing, she’ll definitely find faults..." As she spoke, imagining possible scenarios in the future, Cheng Xue wanted to back out.

Wang Jia Bao kept watching her, seeing her intention to retreat, he was anxious and flustered, saying, "But you have my sister, she’ll definitely speak well of you, and I’ll always listen to you..."

Cheng Xue looked at his sincere eyes, unable to voice a refusal, nor could she simply agree.

The two stayed in a stalemate for a while, until Cheng Xue finally compromised, "I don’t even know if I have that kind of feelings for you, can I have some time to seriously think about it?"

Wang Jia Bao felt a slight disappointment, but didn’t persist, feeling somewhat downcast, "Alright, I’ll wait for you. Take your time to consider, no rush to reply. I can wait, wait until you can accept me... I like you, I won’t give up..."

Cheng Xue was speechless, her eyes widened, looking at him in disbelief. What did he mean? Waiting until she agreed? This rascal. He can be quite cunning, can’t he...

But seeing his pitiful appearance, she really couldn’t bear to outright reject him.

Cheng Xue’s heart filled with a hint of doubt, does she have feelings for him too? Otherwise, why can’t she stand seeing him disappointed...
