"Ha ha ha!"
Pei Ge clung onto his neck and let him spin her around as she laughed aloud.
The corner of Ji Ziming's lips curved into a silly smile.
If any of his friends were present, they would likely be shocked that their eyeballs would pop out of their sockets.
That was because the cold and prideful CEO was smiling so brightly and happily like a child now.
The two embraced each other, with one swinging the other in circles. The falling snowflakes made this scene poignant.
Suddenly, with a bang , the pitch-black sky was lit by dazzling fireworks.
"Wah!"
The noise prompted her to look up at the night sky, only to see it filled with dazzling and colorful fireworks.
"So beautiful!" she gushed. Leaning her head against his chest, she smiled blissfully.
"Yes, very beautiful."
His contented gaze was on her.
She turned to face him and blinked when she saw that his gaze was on her. With a smile, she asked, "Since all the fireworks were gone, may I ask our respectable CEO if this is the end of his confession?"
Her naughty and sly smile made him shake his head in amusement. "What else do you still want?"
"Not that I want anything else, I just felt that ending everything here is a little lacking!" She grinned cheekily at him.
"Mhm-mhm." Tilting his chin slightly upward, he softly coaxed, "Tell me what else you want, then."
"Sing a song for me!" She blinked. "I find your voice very nice to hear, so your singing should be good, too!"
"… I don't know how to sing, and I have never sung." His expression turned stiff when he heard her request.
"You don't know how? I'll let you off the hook this one time, but from now onward, you owe me a song! Next time, you must sing for me!" She smiled.
"Okay." He gave her a helpless look but did not reject her request. Instead, he dotingly acquiesced. "I'll sing for you next time."
"Now, my beloved CEO, I'm a little tired, so you don't mind piggybacking me—"
Before she finished her question, he circled her waist and princess-carried her.
"Ah!" His sudden action caught her by surprise, causing her to tighten her arms around his neck.
Leaning against his chest, she easily felt that, his heart, just like hers, was beating strong and fast.
"When did you start liking me?" she asked, her expression gentle.
"Didn't I write it on the note? Why are you asking me still?" His lips moved slightly in helplessness.
"I want to hear it directly from your mouth."
This moment was akin to a dream. She wanted to hear this man say it for her to believe that this was real.
"Perhaps it's from the beginning, perhaps it's during our constant squabbles, perhaps it's when you first smiled at me, or perhaps it's that moment I laid my eyes on you that you became special to me…"
His low and clear voice was like the steady cadence of cello. Every note, and every breath, was so tranquil and heartfelt as it spread to every corner of her heart.
"Still, no matter when it was, you only need to know that I like, and love, you now. That is enough…"
He looked at her lovingly and gently. This was when she realized that he was capable of speaking such lovable words.
"Ziming, it feels like I'm meeting you for the first time. I truly didn't expect that you have it in you to speak sweet-nothings to woo a woman. Pray tell; are you saying this so naturally because you have experience?" She feigned indignance.
He felt helpless at this.
"I've only ever said those words to you, and you're the only one I'll say that."
Pound, pound!
Her heart accelerated and pounded so hard it made her want to hug him tightly and scream at the top of her lungs.
This man was hers.
"Glib-tongued." She softly pouted, but her face was still blissful.
He shook his head in amusement at her comment.
Suddenly, he realized that, ever since he confessed to her, their positions seemed to have been reversed.
This woman, who was so obedient to him before, was now the one giving him orders.
Could it be that the person who confessed first lost out more?
Still, although he thought of that, he was willing for this to happen; in fact, he was happy.
"Then, since you like me so much, why were you so fierce to me today?" She suddenly recalled that, when he had appeared earlier, he was as fierce as a bandit. He did not look as if he would confess to her at all but more as if he had a grudge against her.
"Why are you asking so many questions today?" About to have a heart attack from all her questioning, he shot her a helpless look for the umptieth time.
"Quickly say it!" she demanded, intending not to let him off the hook.
As such, he could only helplessly answer. "Mu Heng taught me. He said that only by doing that will you feel greater surprise."
"…" Her lips twitched at his explanation. The man then continued before she could speak.
"I was really quite angry, then, because you left for so long but didn't even give me a call…"
"You didn't give me a call, either…"
The two had clearly just confessed to each other, but they were more like a long-time couple; it was so mushy it would give one toothache.
While the atmosphere here was hot and steamy, somewhere else, another man seemed to be in the middle of a frigid winter.
"CEO Fu, these things…"
"You guys leave first; leave me alone for now…"
