There was a "click" sound.

The carriage door is firmly closed.

The air suddenly became quiet, and there was only the faint sound of machinery as the Ferris wheel slowly rose.

Cai Xiaotang still didn't react. She was stunned for two seconds, and then she hurriedly sat down and pretended to be calm, but in fact her heart was already racing nervously.

Then he was afraid that neither of them would talk and it would be too embarrassing, so he hurriedly said: "Looking down from here, the scenery is pretty good..."

As she spoke, she hurriedly leaned towards the window, pretending to admire the scenery outside, but in fact her peripheral vision did not leave Li Xiao's body for a moment.

Then I saw him nodding slightly.

“Really good.”

In response to what she just said, Li Xiao said, and suddenly took the initiative to walk to Cai Xiaotang's side from the other side of the carriage, and then sat down.

Cai Xiaotang's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"you……"

She subconsciously wanted to distance the two of them, but she only said one word, and she met Li Xiao's eyes unexpectedly, and then she couldn't say anything.

There seemed to be too many emotions hidden in those eyes.

There is laughter, pampering, confusion, and there seems to be a little bit of... reluctance.

Alarm bells started buzzing in my head.

Such an extremely quiet environment is really not suitable for two people who are about to be separated.

Since several days.

The two of them have endless things to do almost every day.

As long as we are together, there will never be a moment of silence.

Because as long as you calm down, those emotions that have been deliberately hidden and covered up will surge out in an instant.

Just like it is now.

Cai Xiaotang blinked and searched hard for topics in his mind, trying to break the silence at the moment.

Unexpectedly, it was Li Xiao who spoke first.

"cough……"

He coughed lightly, as if he had something to say.

Then there was another two seconds of silence, and then he suddenly said: "The old man called me today and asked me when I would go back..."

As Li Xiao spoke, he subconsciously observed Cai Xiaotang's expression.

Since these days.

He had already confirmed that Cai Xiaotang liked him.

It wasn't like she said she was so scared that she wanted to run away.

He has always wanted to have a good talk with him.

Helpless but no chance.

All the uneasiness is hidden under the seemingly peaceful and happy appearance of the two people every day.

But only the person involved knows how they tossed and turned after saying goodbye at the door of the room every night.

I wonder if she is the same as him...

Li Xiao waited silently for Cai Xiaotang's response.

I also noticed that she looked a little tense for a moment.

For a long time——

"Oh... the Chinese New Year is coming soon, so I should find you. The old man must miss you, so when are you going to go back?"

Cai Xiaotang finally found her voice and asked as if nothing had happened, but her eyes unconsciously looked out the window, somewhat escaping.

The next second——

"Cai Xiaotang."

Li Xiao suddenly put his hand on her shoulder, grabbed her hand, forced her to look at him, and said straight to the point: "What if I say I can't let you go?"

His tone was unusually urgent, even aggressive.

"you……"

Cai Xiaotang didn't expect that he would be so direct. She was stunned on the spot for a moment, and a trace of emotion that was not hidden in her eyes accidentally slipped out.

Immediately afterwards——

Her wrist was squeezed tighter by Li Xiao.

"Cai Xiaotang."

He called her name again seriously.

"Do you know how fast your heart is beating right now? Do you really... want to leave me that much?"

Li Xiao stared into Cai Xiaotang's eyes, his fingertips just touching his pulse.

He knew every beat of her heart clearly.

"I...haven't we already made it clear?"

Cai Xiaotang subconsciously wanted to take her hand out, but in front of Li Xiao, her little strength was of no use at all.

"If I don't explain it clearly as you want, wouldn't we even have time to spend together these days?"

Li Xiao chuckled, his tone a little helpless.

Cai Xiaotang reacted instantly.

"So the divorce trip you mentioned before was... a lie to me?"

She looked at the person in front of her and felt mixed emotions in her heart. She didn't know whether she should be happy or sad.

Li Xiao did not answer.

The Ferris wheel is rising slowly and is almost close to the highest point.

After a while, he whispered: "I'm not lying to you, I just feel unwilling to do so and want to give myself one last chance. I have never said that I don't like you anymore."

There was a "boom" sound.

Cai Xiaotang heard her heartbeat thundering in her ears.

She knew that the person holding her wrist could feel it, but the more she tried to control it, the harder it became to control herself.

Li Xiao saw all her reactions in his eyes and couldn't help but smile at the corner of his lips.

He said softly as if he was missing something.

"Do you know that before I met you, I never believed that I would fall in love with someone, because it does represent danger to me and the person I like, but..."

"I still can't help but be attracted to you. Every time I see you, I can't help but want to laugh. As long as I stay with you, I feel like I don't have any worries. You are the only one in this world who can give me

This feeling."

He gently opened Cai Xiaotang's fingertips, interlocked with hers, and looked at her with tender eyes.

"I rejected you once. Do you still remember what you told me at that time? You said... you are not afraid of anything, so this time, I don't believe you will back down. If you know that you are afraid of two

No matter how you write it, it’s not the Cai Xiaotang I know.”

Cai Xiaotang pursed her lips tightly.

Almost every word Li Xiao said entered her heart.

yes.

She also once thought that she was fearless.

But now, she has something to be afraid of.

The person she likes is her weakness.

Li Xiao should return to the free person he was before, without being bound by anyone.

Especially her.

She will only bring him trouble.

"I……"

Cai Xiaotang opened her mouth, but she only said one word——

Li Xiao spoke first again.

"You said you would be scared to stay around me. I admit that I didn't do well enough. Can you at least give me a chance to make up for it? Things have been solved a lot now and are no longer as troublesome as before. If

I promise you that things like before will never happen again, nor will they make you worried again..."

"What if I want you to exit the secret door?"

Cai Xiaotang suddenly interrupted him.

Li Xiao was startled when he heard this, and there was a rare blank look on his face.

It seems that this possibility has never been considered.
