Chapter 1522 Do You Like Xiao Ran?

In the afternoon, Jing Xinlei, who returned to her room, took the book as usual, went to the balcony on the second floor, sat on the swing chair, flipped to the page she read last time, and continued.

It's just that today's her can't read the book calmly.

She raised her wrist and glanced at the timetable, it was only two o'clock.

Why does time seem to be much slower today than usual?

Unable to read, she simply got up and was about to lie down on the bed and take a nap.

However, lying on the bed, she still tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

In her mind, what Zhong Shenghao said to her four years ago suddenly flashed across: "Why can't you open your eyes and look at me?"

What did he mean by this sentence?

It sounds like he likes her, but in the past four years, he hasn't said a word like "I like you" positively. Not only that, he is even walking with Xiao Ran now... What does he mean? Woolen cloth?

These troubles have been confusing her, causing her to not be able to sleep for a long time.

In the end, she didn't know how she fell asleep, and when she woke up, there was a dark scene outside the window.

Zhong Shenghao returned home, but did not see her figure on the balcony.

"Where is she?"

Turning his head, looking at the butler beside him, he couldn't help but frowned and asked.

The housekeeper smiled kindly, "The lady stayed in her room as soon as she came back, and didn't come out all afternoon."

After hearing the housekeeper's words, he was startled, and then walked to the door of Jing Xinlei's room.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he raised his hand and knocked on the door, "Knock knock!"

In the room, Jing Xinlei just woke up, and instinctively thought it was the housekeeper when she heard the knock on the door.

"Come in."

The door was pushed open, she lifted the quilt and got out of bed, just stood still, when she looked up and saw Zhong Shenghao walking in, she couldn't help being startled.

Looking at the sky outside the window, he had indeed returned home at this time.

But when she saw him, she couldn't help thinking about the lunch he had with Xiao Ran at noon.

Glancing at him, she didn't say anything, but turned around and went to the bathroom to wash her face.

When he came out again, Zhong Shenghao was still standing there.

"Why did you come back early in the afternoon? Didn't you have a good time?"

She stopped.

happy?

Thinking of what happened in the restaurant, she lowered her eyes. How could she be happy when she was said like that?

"Of course I'm not as happy as you!"

After the words fell, even she herself realized that there was a strong sourness in her expectations.

Zhong Shenghao was startled, as if he didn't hear her words clearly.

"what?"

"Nothing." Her eyes wandered, as if avoiding him.

Then he walked to the side, tidied the bedding, and went downstairs past him.

Zhong Shenghao stayed where he was, frowning, with a thoughtful expression.

Then he turned and went downstairs.

At dinner, Jing Xinlei at the dinner table took the initiative to talk to him for the first time.

"You, do you like Xiao Ran?"

Zhong Shenghao was very surprised by this sudden question, he stopped eating and looked up at her.

Like Xiao Ran?

"Why do you ask that?"

What he likes is her. Even if he hasn't said this directly in these years, some of the performances he has done are enough to prove his intentions. How could she ask such a fantasy question?

His rhetorical question made Jing Xinlei think that he didn't want to answer, and her heart sank suddenly.

"It's nothing. If it's not convenient to answer, don't answer."

"..."
