After breaking off the engagement, she became the CEO's favorite

Shen Xiling stared at Lu Ranran in a daze.

A breeze blew by, and the hair scattered on his forehead fluttered gently.

"......What did you say?"

Shen Xiling's voice was also very soft, with a hint of disbelief.

The characters seemed to be blown away by the wind, floating across Lu Ranran's face before leaving.

She realized it later and her face started to burn.

She lowered her head and just looked at her toes, not saying anything because she didn't know what to say.

Why did she suddenly ask such a question...

Lu Ranran's heart was beating like a drum.

Shen Xiling didn't get a response for a long time. He lowered his eyes, pursed his lips, and finally didn't say much. He just stood up and sat back next to Lu Ranran.

When sitting down, Shen Xiling felt that the person next to him seemed to tremble.

The excitement in his heart suddenly cooled down a bit.

Is she...afraid of him?

Just thinking of this, Shen Xiling's heart felt like it was tied up by a heavy stone, falling uncontrollably.

He has always been decisive in the world of fame and fortune, but at this moment his mind is empty and he doesn't know what to say or do.

Lu Ranran quietly clenched her fists. She hated the feeling of being controlled by others.

Since she asked that question, she had already handed the initiative to others. No matter what the answer was, she could only react passively based on it.

Lu Ranran didn't like this.

Then why did she ask that question? Why did she want to know whether Shen Xiling liked her...

Could it be that......

The answer came clearly to my mind.

Lu Ranran looked at it as if she was looking at the moon in the water, but she accidentally saw her own face under the moonlight.

"I--"

"you--"

They both spoke at the same time, but their words were blocked by the other party.

Shen Xiling was silent for a while, his bony hands grasping the edge of the stone bench, clenching and then releasing it, as if he had gone through a very difficult struggle in his heart.

"You go ahead and say it."

He handed the initiative back.

No matter what answer Lu Ranran gave, he would accept it calmly.

Even if I had to keep my distance from him in the name of giving him space, he would——

"Shen Xiling." Lu Ranran's clear voice interrupted his thoughts, "I like you."

The clear voice carried a hint of sadness, like an echo coming from somewhere.

Shen Xiling suddenly felt that the whole world was quiet.

Lu Ranran spoke out the words that were in her mind in one go, as if she was afraid that she would run away suddenly.

She thought she would be nervous, but unexpectedly, she felt more relaxed than ever before.

It is like the joy of a mountaineer who finally reaches the top after going through so much hardship. The road ahead is wide open and the road ahead is smooth.

Lu Ranran let out a long sigh, stretched out his hand to pinch the tense muscles at the back of his neck, and looked up at the scenery in the distance.

At this time, someone shouted.

"Look, the cloud over there looks like a heart—"

"Well!"

When Lu Ranran was about to look in the direction of the voice, she suddenly felt an irresistible force behind her head, forcing her to change her gaze.

Before I could look down upon the person in front of me, I felt a cool and soft touch on my lips.

Goose bumps suddenly covered my whole body.

The noisy cheers were still in her ears, but Lu Ranran seemed to be very far away from them, and she couldn't help but close her eyes.

The soft touch on the lips is like a dragonfly touching the water, a light touch creates ripples.

Lu Ranran only felt the big hand on the back of her head, slowly passing over her hot earlobe and gently holding her cheek.

The rough thumb stroked across the soft lips, as if stroking a priceless treasure.

Lu Ranran opened her eyes and immediately fell into Shen Xiling's affectionate eyes. She saw her own reflection.

"Ranran," Shen Xiling gently placed his forehead against hers.

The tips of their noses were touching, and their breaths were entangled.

"I like you."

Shen Xiling said.

After finally climbing to the top of the mountain, you need to have a good rest and enjoy the scenery at the top of the mountain.

But Lu Ranran felt that the short few dozen minutes of rest at the top of the mountain seemed to last longer than the several hours of climbing.

Especially when my hand is still tightly held.

Lu Ranran suddenly felt like a “buy one get one free” discounted item in a supermarket. If she wanted to take one, she had to take the other.

Otherwise, how to explain Shen Xiling's behavior?

"I'll go over there and take a look." Lu Ranran pointed to the observation deck at the back.

"Okay, I'll come too."

"It looks like the sun is about to set. Let's go to the west and have a look."

"it is good."

No matter where Lu Ranran went, Shen Xiling would stick to Lu Ranran like a magnet.

If there are ignorant people who insist on coming up.

Although Shen Xiling still had that gentle expression on his face, he always raised their clasped hands to his chest in a very abrupt manner.

"How can I help you?"

The person who disturbed others looked embarrassed and could only smile and say that he was disturbing them.

“I’m going to take a picture of those clouds over there.”

Just now someone shouted in surprise when he saw a heart-shaped cloud. Lu Ranran wandered around for a long time, feeling happy and wanted to join in the fun.

"Okay, I'll accompany you."

Shen Xiling held her hand tightly and led her into the huge crowd.

Lu Ranran wanted to take out her cell phone to take a picture, but when she pulled her hand away, Shen Xiling held it even tighter.

"I want to take a picture." Lu Ranran said

"Go ahead and shoot." Shen Xiling smiled calmly, but had no intention of letting go.

Lu Ranran raised the clenched hand, "How can I take the photo if you don't let go?"

A rare look of distress appeared on Shen Xiling's face.

After hesitating for a while, Shen Xiling finally "reluctantly" let go of Lu Ranran's hand.

"Go ahead and take the photo. Take it faster."

Lu Ranran looked at the aggrieved expression on his face and couldn't help but feel a little funny.

But seeing his pitiful appearance, Lu Ranran decided to finish the photo quickly. She raised her phone and quickly found a gap in the crowd, adjusting the angle and focus...

Suddenly, a burly man jumped out from nowhere.

Although he was tall, he tried his best to squeeze into the gap beside Lu Ranran.

Lu Ranran was unable to dodge and was pushed and staggered. Before she could react, a strong arm wrapped around her waist and pulled her into a cool embrace.

Shen Xiling looked at her with a slightly frown, his words full of worry.

"How's it going? Are you okay?"

A burly man's powerful voice greeted me from behind.

"Come over here, we can see clearly here!"

A group of aunts chattered, laughed and cursed, and hurried to the direction where the big man was greeting, their words full of praise for him.

Lu Ranran was dissatisfied and raised her fist and hit Shen Xiling hard on the chest.

"It's all your fault that you took me so long that I lost my prime position!"

Shen Xiling grabbed the little hand that was "demonstrating" on her chest, raised her eyebrows, and said with a smile:

"Want to see?"

"What else?" Lu Ranran asked back.

The next second, Lu Ranran felt that she was forced to turn around.

After a dizzy spell, the dense wall of people just now suddenly turned into black dots at my feet, and the heart-shaped cloud appeared completely and broadly before my eyes.

"Did you see clearly?"

A girl not far away saw this scene and slapped her boyfriend hard.

"Look, people can't see, but my boyfriend is holding her up to see!"
