1670 Have You Ever Been Kissed? (1/2)

After a long while, Shen Zhilie's face remained still.

The look in his eyes held a bevy of meaning as he looked at her strangely and said, ”She's already married. Do you expect me to pursue an affair with her?”

Well…

He did have a point!

No one had ever ruled that feelings for a person had to last a lifetime.

Even couples that were married were allowed to divorce!

Besides, Lili had never expressed any interest in the guy…

”Um…”

Ye Qianqian did know what else to say. She looked at Shen Zhilie as the blush on her face slowly began to dissipate.

There was no need at all for her to be this nervous!

They both knew each other well. For all she knew, he might have found her discomfort laughable.

Pretending to be unaffected, Ye Qianqian cleared her throat and continued, ”If that's the case…”

”I quite admire Lili. She's very strong. I always thought it was a waste that she married Ou Ming. That guy is a complete asshole.” Shen Zhilie moved closer to Ye Qianqian and picked his words carefully. ”But after that, I realized that when a person truly loves another, it doesn't matter what his or her past is. Just like when I liked Lili, I didn't mind that she had been with Ou Ming before or that she had even gone through an abortion. I just wanted to save her from that hell.”

Ye Qianqian felt very uncomfortable hearing his words.

He had truly liked Lili.

Of course, Ye Qianqian knew that.

But she had just asked him whether he liked her. Wasn't it inappropriate for him to be saying this so soon after?

Ye Qianqian saw the seriousness in Shen Zhilie's eyes. She cleared her throat and moved back, releasing a breath.

”I later realized that the way I liked Lili wasn't the way a man likes a woman.”

As Shen Zhilie spoke, he slowly walked toward Ye Qianqian.

Ye Qianqian began to panic and instinctively tried to avoid him. She asked, ”What was it?”

”Admiration and the challenge to conquer.”
