_1 Chapter 1151 -1151: Do You Understand What I Mean?
_1 Peggy Lewis looked at him in surprise, and Lyke Zhekova laughed, “Since you’re my girlfriend now, you can rightfully stay at my place without feeling inappropriate, right?”
“Quickly pack your things.
Just like last time, you don’t need to pack too much, we can come back later and pack slowly.” Lyke Zhekova said, “This time, you can move all your stuff to my place.
You don’t have to keep thinking you need to come back to stay.”
Anyway, once we’re back, she’ll pack everything up and take it all away, so for now, just pack whatever you need tonight or maybe in the next two days.
It was much less than what Peggy had brought back tonight.
Peggy blinked her eyes.
...
Is she…
his girlfriend now?
It’s happening so fast that she can hardly imagine it.
She hasn’t even adjusted herself to embrace the new identity.
“Are we going back tonight?” Peggy asked, feeling somewhat baffled.
“Of course, I came here to take you back with me.” The only reason he came here was to take her back, and he didn’t plan for Peggy to have a second choice.
Peggy looked at Lyke.
Looking at him now was like looking at her boyfriend.
This feeling was certainly different.
So, Peggy began packing a few clothes and daily necessities.
Not too much.
Because Lyke’s home had everything she needed.
The luggage she was preparing now was just like the first time she had moved to Lyke’s place.
She only packed what she needed for the next two or three days.
Because Lyke had said they have to come back again.
Next time she came back, she was to pack all her belongings and move them over.
But this time, her feelings were different.
Peggy no longer felt burdened.
Because she was living in his home as Lyke’s girlfriend.
It was quite justified.
As Peggy was packing, Lyke couldn’t really help because he didn’t know what she wanted to bring.
While Peggy was packing, she thought of a question and asked him, “What if! if I didn’t agree to be your girlfriend just now, if I weren’t ready, and needed to think it through?”
Upon hearing this, Lyke promptly asked, “You regret it?”
“No.” Peggy quickly said, “I’m just asking about another possibility.
Hypothetically.”
“Unless, you were so confident that you knew I would definitely agree.” Peggy continued.
“Indeed, I wasn’t that confident.” Lyke laughed, “So my initial plan was, if you agreed, I would take you home immediately.”
Take her home.
The words warmed Peggy when she heard them.
Lyke had given her a part of his home.
It had become their home.
“If you say you need to think, then I would still take you home and allow you to think it through there.” Anyhow, the essential step was to get her to his home first.
Peggy: “…”
Lyke has put her in a situation where she couldn’t escape.
No matter what she chose, it would eventually lead back to him.
Since she didn’t have much to bring, Peggy was done packing very quickly.
Once the suitcase was closed, Lyke took it up.
As he tried to leave, he suddenly felt some resistance. 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓾𝒷.𝒸ℴ𝓂
He turned around and saw Peggy pulling on the suitcase.
“What’s wrong?” Lyke asked, looking puzzled.
If Peggy didn’t express her concerns, she wouldn’t feel at ease.
She wanted to be with Lyke.
Since she loved him, she didn’t want to miss him.
But she wanted an answer to the question that had long been bothering her.
Only if she got the answer to this question could she be determined to date him wholeheartedly.
Otherwise, she couldn’t focus fully on the relationship when her mind was filled with questions.
“I want to ask you something.” Peggy said.
“What is it?” Lyke laughed, “You look troubled.”
Peggy fidgeted with her clothes and asked, “Why do you like me?
”
“As a single person for so long, you must have high standards.
How did you end up liking me?
I’m an ordinary girl.
If I say I’m just average looking, that’s being too fake.
While I can be seen as pretty, I’m hardly unforgettable and incomparable.
”
“As for my personality, there’s nothing special about it.
As for my abilities, they are not outstanding.
My intelligence quotient is not very high either.
Every aspect of me is just acceptable—neither too shoddy nor too impressive.
There’s nothing out of the ordinary.”
“Given your social circle, which is much bigger than mine, your family must have introduced you to many eligible young ladies.
Even those eligible ladies that the Zhekova Family are impressed with should be much better than I am.
You know so many people who are excellent in every way.
What’s so special about me?” Peggy sighed.
“So I really can’t figure out why you like me.”
“Love isn’t measured by all kinds of conditions.
It’s not a test where you have to be the best in each subject to be likable.”
“It’s merely a spark in the eyes; it comforts me at first sight.
Your personality…it’s something that matches my temper, making me feel good about everything.
True, there are many women who are better than you, but being better doesn’t work as the standard for liking someone.”
“Otherwise, all the men in the world should love the most outstanding woman, and all the women in the world should love the most outstanding man.
There would be no need for others.”
“Love is a subjective matter.
It’s all about personal preference, not about barriers or objective conditions.
To like someone, one cannot compare her with others in every aspect, scoring and judging.”
“So, I just like you.
As you said, I’m not the best either.
Let alone those who are better than me, if we talk about those who are as good as me but younger, they are obviously a better match for you in terms of age.
So would you like them?”
“Of course not.” Peggy answered without hesitation.
“There you have it.
I’m not a perfect person either.
I am getting older, and you never once thought of abandoning me for someone younger.
So how can you ask me why I like you?”
“Not to mention others, sweetie, you have met Gu Xian, haven’t you?
You even had a chat with him.
He is very capable, has a good personality and appearance.
In every way, he is excellent, and he is younger than me.
His age matches perfectly with yours.
Do you like him?
Do you want to date him?” Lyke counter-questioned.
Peggy shook her head instantly.
“There you have it.” Lyke leaned forward, and with a suitcase between them, leaned in and kissed Peggy’s lips, “Did you understand what I meant?”
“I do.” Peggy finally got it.
No matter how outstanding others are, if he doesn’t like them, they are nothing.
Just like however young and handsome others are, she didn’t like them and only liked Lyke.
“So now, can you leave calmly with me?” Lyke asked again.
“Okay.”
Peggy never expected that she would return to Lyke’s place as soon as she came back.
The feeling this time, was entirely different from before.
She felt incredibly reassured and peaceful.
