Chapter 848 [Seven] It's Not Me
Shui Su looked up at him in surprise, hesitated for a while before tentatively reaching out to grab his neck.

The expression on Xiao Ze's face was still flat and cold, but his eyes were strangely soft, but at the angle where Shui Su was now, he couldn't notice it at all.

"My foot injury is not that serious." After all, it was a public place, Xiao Ze was so high-profile suddenly, so many pairs of eyes were staring at them, Shui Su was a little uncomfortable, whispered, struggling to get off the ground.

Xiao Ze ignored her struggle, and walked out of the coffee shop. Hearing her words, he tightly hugged her body, and said in a deep voice, "Don't move around."

Shui Su immediately froze as if acupuncture points had been tapped.

Xiao Ze carried her to the car and asked her to sit in the passenger seat, then sat in the driver's seat and started the car.

"I can go back by myself..."

"I've asked for leave, and I don't have to go to the company today." Xiao Ze knew that Shui Su was afraid of delaying his work, so he dispelled her worries with one sentence.

Shui Su was a little surprised, Xiao Ze had been devoting himself to work these past few years, and now he suddenly asked for leave, just because...she was injured?
If it was Xiao Ze three years ago, Shui Su would not be surprised at all when he did such a thing, and would even think it was normal, or to put it hypocritically, it was taken for granted.

Because at that time Xiao Ze really valued her more than anything else.

But in the past three years, he has made it clear that he wants to break up with her and draw a clear line, and he has tried his best to ignore her affairs.

But today he suddenly changed his temper, the change was so fast that Shui Su was flattered.

"You..." She hesitated before she spoke, "I wanted to ask just now, but Xue Yang is here, so I didn't say anything."

When Xiao Ze heard her mentioning Xue Yang, the darkness in his eyes became much heavier, but his face remained calm, listening to her continue.

"I was drunk last night, but what I said was true." At this time, she didn't care about her own face anymore, she just wanted to say what she should say clearly.

Being left out in the cold for three years for no reason, she really didn't want to have any more misunderstandings with Xiao Ze.

"I don't know what you are thinking in your heart, you said... you want to get a certificate with me." She clenched her fists tightly and mustered up the courage to look up at him, "You really, sincerely want to marry me ?"

Sincerely?

Yes, he has always wanted to marry her, and he has thought so a long time ago. In this life, she is his woman and can only be his.

If not three years ago...

Even if there were some twists and turns in the middle, since she gave him a chance, he would not disappoint his original intention.

Yes, sincerely, not at all adulterated.

There are too many complicated thoughts in my heart, but when the words come to my lips, they only turn into a simple "um".

Some words, if you say too much, it will only make people feel hypocritical. He is no longer as stupid as he was three years ago, writing all his cares clearly on his face.

He admitted that he still liked her, and suppressed himself for three years, but that feeling didn't diminish in the slightest, on the contrary, it became more intense because of these years of suppression.

But he won't show it easily anymore, lest... when he finds out the truth, he will be hurt more deeply than before.

Such a shallow sound, it sounds like coping, without feeling the slightest sincerity.

Shui Su's eyes darkened, and he leaned on the back of the chair with his head down and didn't speak for a while.

She felt that she didn't understand Xiao Ze before, but now, she doesn't understand more and more.

But... Anyway, he has responded, and he also agreed to marry her.

With his current status, he doesn't have to force himself to do things he doesn't like.

Therefore, since he agreed to marry her, he should have her in his heart, even... just a little bit.

Shui Su's lips curled into a self-deprecating wry smile, I hope this is not just wishful thinking on her part.

Xiao Ze saw that Shui Su's mood was a bit depressed, his lips moved, subconsciously wanting to comfort him, but when he thought of something, he stopped when the words came to his lips, and finally he just pursed his lips tightly and didn't make a sound.

He focused his gaze on the road ahead, concentrated on driving, and never looked at Shui Su.

If you don't read it, you won't think too much about it, you won't care about it, and you won't... feel distressed.

After that, neither of them spoke again, and the silence in the carriage made people feel extraordinarily weird.

Xiao Ze drove the car to Ye's garage and stopped, and was about to ask Shui Su to get out of the car, when he turned his head and glanced at her inadvertently, and found that she had fallen asleep on the passenger seat.

She drank too much wine last night, and at night with him...in the morning when she left Xiao's and encountered a car accident, all kinds of things piled up together, and it was inevitable that she would feel sleepy when she lacked energy.

Xiao Ze unfastened his seat belt, leaned over, and carefully looked at her sleeping face.

She really slept deeply, but it seemed that she was having some bad dream, her brows were furrowed all the time, and she was muttering something softly in her mouth.

But her voice was too low, and all she uttered were broken babbles. He turned his ear to listen carefully, but he couldn't hear clearly.

His eyes fell on her face, and he looked at every inch very carefully.

Even he himself couldn't remember how long it had been since he had looked at her carefully.

He was obviously a very familiar person, but if he really took a closer look, he felt a little strange for no reason.

He used to use a paintbrush to outline her appearance, from when she was ten years old to when she was 21 years old, every year on her birthday, he would personally draw a portrait of her without a break.

She didn't know how focused he was when he looked at her, let alone how serious he was when he painted. Every stroke was engraved in her heart, and she just wanted to remember it forever.

Three years ago, he put all those portraits into a box and pressed them in the corner of the cabinet. He hasn't opened them once in the past three years.

I was afraid of seeing her, so I couldn't help but want to come to her, and I was even more afraid of seeing her once, and I would understand how stupid I used to be.

His eyes were deep and dark, but when he looked at her, he was always so focused, as if there was only room for her in his eyes and heart.

The slender fingers lightly touched her lips, and the fingertips brushed the corners of her lips consciously.

Obviously it was a very intimate gesture, but there was no lust in his eyes, only deep helplessness and pain: "Why...the one you like is not me?"

This is a question he has always wanted to ask, and he has kept it in his heart for three years, but he never dared to ask it.

Today I finally asked the question, but she was sleeping and didn't hear it at all, so how could she give him any answer.

Xiao Ze closed his eyes, leaned back on the chair, took a deep breath, and was about to get out of the car and carry her into the house, but before he could move, Shui Su suddenly grabbed his wrist.
