Chapter 339: Chapter 0339: Ye Xunhuan Comes to Slap Faces Again
That’s right, Qi Shijie was indeed planning to confess his feelings.
However, his initial plan was to invite Qiu Ruoxi to dance, and then to express his feelings for her in the middle of the dance floor.
But unexpectedly, Qiu Ruoxi declined, citing discomfort, and Ye Xunhuan shamelessly dropped to one knee to ask Qiu Ruoxi for a dance, forcing her to accept his invitation and join him on the dance floor for a song!
This situation immediately cast a shadow over Qi Shijie’s heart. Not only was he filled with rage, but he also felt an intense burning on his face, as if he had been slapped!
Yet he was helpless to do anything about it and had to maintain a gentle and modest demeanor in front of everyone.
After all, he was well aware of his status here. If he lost his temper over such a trivial matter, what would others think?
Even though he was seething with anger, it didn’t cause Qi Shijie to back down. Instead, he was still determined to confess his feelings to Qiu Ruoxi.
Just like Dongfang Shu had said, "At this moment, you’re nothing but a grandson!"
Drop the pride; if it’s pride you’re after, you’ll only end up holding your own hand while watching others walk hand in hand!
By now, Qiu Ruoxi had also picked up on Qi Shijie’s intention, her delicate brows furrowing slightly.
Clearly, she found Qi Shijie’s declaration quite objectionable!
"Ruoxi, give me a chance, I will truly cherish and take care of you..."
While speaking, Qi Shijie began to imitate Ye Xunhuan, kneeling on one knee, and as if by magic, a diamond ring suddenly appeared in his hand!
If this were an ordinary woman, she might have been moved by Qi Shijie by now and accepted his proposal.
But Qiu Ruoxi’s brows furrowed more deeply.
Was this an attempt to emulate Ye Xunhuan’s persistent tactics?
Just then, the music suddenly changed to a beautiful and moving love song!
Out of nowhere, someone began to shout loudly, "Say yes to him, say yes to him..."
As soon as this voice called out, quite a few people began to echo it.
The so-called herd effect is just like this; once someone takes the lead, a second and third will follow!
After all, onlookers typically enjoy adding fuel to the fire.
It’s not about class; it’s simply human nature.
"Ruoxi, from the moment I saw you, I fell deeply in love with you..."
Qiu Ruoxi took a deep breath and looking at Qi Shijie, she said, "I’m sorry, Senior Qi, I cannot accept. I have always regarded you as nothing more than a senior. If I’ve given you the wrong impression, I truly apologize!"
"Ruoxi..."
Just as Qi Shijie was about to speak, Ye Xunhuan suddenly interrupted, "Mr. Qi, this is not the way to confess. It’s outdated. Not to mention her refusal, even if I were a woman, I would not accept it!"
"You..."
"Have you finished your confession now?"
"What do you mean?"
"I’m going to confess as well!" Ye Xunhuan looked at Qi Shijie as if he were looking at a fool: "What, you confessed and got rejected, and now I’m not allowed to confess?"
No sooner had the words left his mouth than Ye Xunhuan’s gaze became profound, deep as the ocean, inscrutable to anyone.
"Ruoxi, do you know what you are in my heart?" Ye Xunhuan gazed at Qiu Ruoxi with a face full of tenderness, his voice also becoming magnetic at this moment!
Curious, Qiu Ruoxi looked at Ye Xunhuan, wanting to see what her nominal husband was up to, so she asked, "What am I?"
"A thief!"
"A thief?" Qiu Ruoxi was startled.
"Yes, you are a thief, a thief who has stolen my heart!" Ye Xunhuan’s voice became gentler in this moment, and his tone also slowed down: "From the first day I saw you, you had stolen my heart away!"
"We have known each other for one hundred and sixty-three days, three thousand nine hundred and twelve hours, two hundred and thirty-four thousand seven hundred and twenty minutes..."
For a moment, Qiu Ruoxi was a bit dazed.
It seemed that she had indeed known Ye Xunhuan for over a hundred days now, but as for the exact number of days, she really couldn’t remember. Could it really be one hundred and sixty-three?
"In these one hundred and sixty-three days, during those three thousand nine hundred hours, I felt like my heart was never with me, it has completely followed you away..."
"Your every move, every smile has deeply affected my heart..."
And the other women nearby, upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, oh how romantic, if only I could meet such a great man, death would be worth it!
"Ruoxi, in these one hundred and sixty-three days, your figure has constantly lingered in my mind, impossible to dispel, and every night I would dream of you..."
"Ruoxi, I truly, truly love you so much, I will definitely love you well, I may not be able to give you a diamond ring like others, give you a big house, let you eat delicacies from mountains and seas every day, but I can promise, I will give you a heart, a whole heart, to cherish you, love you, take care of you for a lifetime, even if time flies by, years pass, your beauty fades, your hair turns silver, I will still cherish you, love you... Ruoxi, please, give me a chance, okay?"
With that, Ye Xunhuan took a bold step forward, directly embracing Qiu Ruoxi’s slender waist, fixating his gaze on her without blinking, while his eyes seemed to be ablaze with the flames of love, capable of melting even a piece of ice!
Gazing at Ye Xunhuan’s chiseled, rugged face, and those gentle yet fiery eyes full of love, Qiu Ruoxi’s heartbeat suddenly accelerated at this moment.
"I... I..."
Although Ye Xunhuan’s confession touched all the women’s hearts, not a single person dared to stir up the crowd.
Who the hell couldn’t see that Ye Xunhuan was undercutting someone, undercutting Qi Shijie.
If they started cheering for them to be together, to marry him, it would just be uncomfortable for nothing.
"Look into my eyes and tell me!"
"Can I think about it?" Qiu Ruoxi’s eyes began to dart around restlessly.
She didn’t dare to meet Ye Xunhuan’s gaze, for his eyes at this moment were too tender, too alluring.
"Okay!" Ye Xunhuan nodded without hesitation, slowly released Qiu Ruoxi, and looked defiantly at Qi Shijie!
As if to say, see, this is the most popular way to confess nowadays, your method is too old, it’s not working anymore!
Qi Shijie watched Ye Xunhuan looking smug, his face turning extremely grim, almost as if wringing out water.
Qiu Ruoxi had just rejected him in front of so many people, but she had told Ye Xunhuan she would think about it!
What the hell is this supposed to mean?
How many times had this guy slapped his own face since he knew him?
This time it was even more resounding!
Qi Shijie only knew that today he had totally lost face, all the preparations he had made had ended up dressing Ye Xunhuan instead.
Angry, Qi Shijie was filled with an unprecedented rage, his fists tightly clenched in this moment, his cold glance scanning back and forth over Ye Xunhuan!
