"Asuna, what are you preparing to do..."

"Ah, you're talking about this..."

Noticing Zhao Si's gaze, Asuna's eyes seemed to be evasive for some reason. She looked at the book in her hand.

"Because Yui said before that she wanted to listen to a story before going to bed...so I went looking for it, wanting to see if I could find the storybook of this world. Unexpectedly, I actually found it." Asuna said in a low voice.

"Is that so..." Upon hearing this, Zhao Si nodded thoughtfully.

On the other side, Asuna glanced at Yui's room behind Zhao Si and said in surprise, "Huh? It's so early, is Yui already asleep?"

There was no light at all through the crack of the door, which meant that the lights in the room were off.

"Well, the child was a little tired from playing today. He fell asleep after lying on the bed for a while." Zhao Si said.

"Is that so? Okay..." Upon hearing that, Asuna had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​telling Yui a story.

And then, according to normal developments, both of them should go back to their rooms to sleep, but.

""

At this time, neither of the two people in the corridor spoke. The atmosphere around them became quiet, and an inexplicable atmosphere spread in the silence.

With her head lowered, Asuna tightened her arms around the storybook, a familiar impulse spreading in her heart, and her face was a little red under her chestnut hair.

Go ahead, now is the best time, tell him how you feel, tell him that you like him!

It was as if a familiar voice whispered in Asuna's heart. Whenever Asuna and Zhao Si were alone, this voice would constantly appear in Asuna's mind.

But, can I really do this? Mr. Zhao Si...

Yes, you can, of course you can. Aren’t you very clear about this?

....Yes, I know very well.

Asuna listened to the voice's prompts, as if asking and answering herself, and her mind couldn't help but recall the previous events, and she gradually calmed down.

Dad, do you like Mom?

Of course I like it.

Really!? I mean...

Yes, yes, I know, you mean the kind of love between men and women, right...

It was not long ago that Asuna finished her bath and was about to tell Zhao Si that the bathroom was free. Then, she overheard the conversation between the father and daughter outside the door.

That was the first time she heard Zhao Si's opinion of her - "like".

This was a word that Asuna had not expected, and even made her extremely happy.

Yes, I know it very well, don't I? In this relationship, I am not the only one who is directed towards Zhao Si. Mr. Zhao Si also has a good impression of me!

Thinking of this, following the voice in her heart, Asuna mustered up the courage again and looked up at Zhao Si, wanting to confess her love to him as the voice in her heart said.

However, what Asuna didn't expect was that after hearing that conversation, she left because she couldn't suppress her excitement, which made her miss what Zhao Si said next.

She didn't know that now she no longer needed to take that step.

"Asuna." Zhao Si's voice sounded in her ears. When Asuna raised her head and looked at Zhao Si, she found that Zhao Si had come to her side without her knowing when. The two were less than one meter away from each other.

"Mr. Zhao Si?!"

Zhao Si's unexpected action once again made Asuna nervous, and she completely forgot what she had originally intended to say.

Not only that, Zhao Sijia's actions made Asuna so surprised that she was speechless.

Zhao Si looked down at her, and the next moment, a big hand touched Asuna's rosy face.

"Well..."

Biting her lip slightly, Asuna met Zhao Si's gaze. Besides nervousness, there was also some surprise and confusion in her eyes.

Based on her previous understanding of Zhao Si, Zhao Si didn't seem like the kind of person who would do what he did right now.

Why now...Huh? What is that?

Just as she was thinking, Asuna suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a hint of red light in Zhao Si's eyes.

Then, just as she was about to observe the light carefully, Zhao Si in front of her also made a move.

"Asuna, you heard everything I said to Yui before, right? Although you didn't say anything, I can't hide it from you. I know you were outside the door at that time." Zhao Si leaned down slightly and spoke to Asuna's ear in an extremely ambiguous manner.

"Alas!"

Without bothering to think about the red light, Xuxu's slightly warm breath flowed on Asuna's earlobe, like a cat's claw scratching her heart. Asuna couldn't help but shudder, let out a scream, and then took a few steps back to distance herself from Zhao Si.

"hehe..."

Looking at Asuna's increasingly beautiful face, Zhao Si curled the corners of his mouth, revealing an evil smile.

"I like you, Asuna, and you like me too." Coming to Asuna again, Zhao Si reached out and lifted her smooth chin, looking into her eyes and said.

"In that case, how about we be together? Yui is looking forward to it too."

"Um...Mr. Zhao Si..."

Looking at Zhao Si in front of her, listening to what he said, she knew that the result she had been waiting for had finally arrived, and it was Zhao Si who had taken the initiative to propose it. She should have been happy at a time like this, but for some reason, Asuna couldn't feel happy at all.

The Zhao Si in front of her gave her a very abnormal feeling from the beginning. From his personality to his style, he was completely different from the Zhao Si they had been with in the past.

Compared to the previous Zhao Si, the current Zhao Si gave Asuna a very frivolous feeling, which made her feel very unhappy.

Why is this happening? Mr. Zhao Si is clearly not like that...

Asuna thought about it, and her worry about Zhao Si quickly calmed down the panic in her heart, and she pondered the reason.

Oh right, the one before!

Almost instantly, Asuna thought of the red light she had seen in Zhao Si's eyes before.

Zhao Si is an Oriental and his eyes are pure black. Everyone knows this and there is absolutely no other color.

However, Asuna had seen a red light in his eyes before.

Could it be that Zhao Si has become like this because of some reasons?

That's it, there's no other explanation.

Asuna thought about it, she looked at Zhao Si, who still maintained that evil smile, waiting for her answer.

""

Logically speaking, since I know that Zhao Si must have been influenced by unknown factors to do everything he did now, what I should do now is to reject Zhao Si's remarks which are equivalent to a confession.

However, when the words came to her lips, Asuna couldn't say no.

Do you really want to refuse? Mr. Zhao Si's confession.

Asuna was conflicted. Although she had heard what Zhao Si said to Yui before, she was not sure whether Zhao Si had been influenced by him at that time and admitted that he liked her.

If she had been affected, then it was hard to say whether Zhao Si really had any romantic feelings for her. If she agreed now, what kind of identity would Zhao Si have when he recovered and they got along?

Asuna was conflicted in her heart and didn't notice that while she was hesitating whether to agree or not, the red light in Zhao Si's eyes gradually disappeared.

""

His face suddenly froze. Zhao Si looked at his hand that was hooking Asuna's chin and recalled what he had said before.

What the hell was I doing?!

The corners of his mouth kept twitching, and Zhao Si was shouting in his heart.

Chapter 533 Intersecting Shadows

Just as Asuna thought, with Zhao Si's personality, he would never do something like that, first talking in a girl's ear, then hooking the girl's chin, and frivolously saying "I like you, let's be together".

Zhao Si's original idea was to invite Asuna out for a walk and a chat, and then when the atmosphere was right and things were going smoothly, he would express his feelings to Asuna.

And to be honest, the action he had just taken was just a thought that flashed through Zhao Si's mind in an instant.

People's thoughts are not constant and unique. Before a matter is completely concluded, even if there are specific plans in mind, divergent thinking will still cause people to constantly produce various ideas in their subconscious mind.

This is the case with Zhao Si. He had already thought about how to take that step towards Asuna, but before he actually took that step, he couldn't help but have some other ideas in his mind that could help him achieve his goal.

Compared to this plain and natural way, Zhao Si naturally thought of other ways.

Like, imitating the domineering CEOs in some movies and TV dramas, he pushed Asuna into the corner and told her bluntly: "Woman, I like you, and you will be mine from now on."

Or it could be a magic confession. Under the guise of a magic show, he would conjure up a bunch of beautiful flowers or a ring in front of Asuna, then kneel down on one knee and confess directly.

All these thoughts should have been like shooting stars across the sky, flashing through Zhao Si's mind for a moment before disappearing. In the end, Zhao Si would follow his original plan and express his feelings to Asuna in his own way.

However, what Zhao Si did not expect was that at a certain moment among those thousands of thoughts, an idea that should have disappeared as soon as it was thought of suddenly became clear.

Then, when Zhao Si came to his senses, he had already completely realized that idea.

He achieved his goal of confronting Asuna in a way that he would never do otherwise, a way that was completely inconsistent with his personality and habits.

To be honest, Zhao Si was dumbfounded now. It was just a fleeting thought, but his body and even his mind immediately followed suit.

At this moment, looking at his hand that was hooked on Asuna's chin, Zhao Si didn't know whether to take it or not, and he felt extremely embarrassed.

On the other side, Asuna, who was originally struggling in her heart, suddenly discovered the subtle changes in Zhao Si.

Originally, Asuna's chin was lifted by Zhao Si, and their eyes were forced to meet. Before that, Asuna had been avoiding Zhao Si's gaze because of the conflict in her heart.

And now, Asuna looked at Zhao Si carefully, but suddenly found that Zhao Si's originally naked gaze had become similar to hers before.

Zhao Si was avoiding her gaze, and his facial expression looked very unnatural.

Mr. Zhao Si?

Asuna was extremely surprised. She stared at Zhao Si's eyes, which were pure black without any impurities. The red light from before had disappeared, as if it had never existed.

Mr. Zhao Si, has he recovered?

Thinking about it, in order to confirm whether Zhao Si has returned to normal, Asuna decided to give him a try.

"Well, um, Mr. Zhao Si, I, I feel a little uncomfortable. Can you please let me go?" Asuna said.

If it was the previous Mr. Zhao Si, he would definitely not let go of himself, and if it was the original Mr. Zhao Si...

"Uh, oh, sorry, sorry..." Upon hearing that, Zhao Si quickly pulled his hand back and took the initiative to distance himself from Asuna.

Seeing Zhao Si's reaction, Asuna confirmed her thoughts.

Sure enough, Mr. Zhao Si has recovered.

Thinking of this, Asuna felt relieved, but she also felt a little lost.

Zhao Si has now returned to normal, which means that the previous Zhao Si was abnormal. Since he was abnormal, then what Zhao Si said before was naturally not what he meant and was invalid.

How wonderful it would be if it were true. If Mr. Zhao Si's confession were true, then I would definitely agree without hesitation. Asuna thought with her head lowered.

"Well, then, what are your thoughts on what I said earlier, Asuna?"

"Eh?!"

Hearing this, Asuna looked up at Zhao Si in some surprise.

Mr. Zhao Si, what did he just say? Could it be that what he said before was...

Her thoughts uncontrollably moved in that direction, and Asuna stared at Zhao Si in a daze until she heard the words from Zhao Si's mouth that she had just heard not long ago.

"I like you, Asuna."

Zhao Si took a step forward and looked at Asuna seriously.

"Maybe you will wonder why I have to say it a second time. Actually, although I was indeed planning to confess to you tonight, how should I put it, the previous situation was somewhat different from what I had expected, and I didn't want it to be like that." Zhao Si said helplessly.

He was not sure what had happened to him because he had no idea what was happening to him. When he came to his senses, everything was already done, and he was extremely embarrassed.

Originally, after this happened, Zhao Si planned to confront Asuna again in two days, and everyone would just pretend that nothing happened as what happened tonight... Well, this is obviously unlikely.

However, as he thought about it, Zhao Si suddenly realized a problem. That is, he actually didn't need to worry about this problem.

What was his original intention? Of course, to express his feelings to Asuna, or to confess his love.

And now, well, although the process is a little different from what I expected, the result has been achieved.

Let’s not worry about why he was like that before for now. Anyway, after Zhao Si realized this, he felt...

Anyway, everything has been said and done, so why not just go all the way?

Speaking of which, although what he said before was direct, it was not wrong.

Do I like Asuna? Yes, I do. Does Asuna like me? Yes, she does. That's it!
