The Dragon Beside Me - Chapter 130

Su Ruan wondered if this was supposed to be a trick question. However, her curiosity made her nod. “Of course.”

“Your Grandpa… he wanted to know what is my intention towards you,” Long Fei did not try to hide his conversation with her grandpa.

Her eyes flickered. Su Ruan certainly did not expect that they would be discussing this matter. Her thoughts went back to that night when her grandpa had caught her returning home late at night after she went to that carnival with Long Fei.

She had explained that she went out with Long Fei to discuss work. But it seemed that her grandpa did not believe her words.

“Do you want to know what was my answer?”

Su Ruan had a premonition. This person wouldn’t say anything that would embarrass her, right?

“What did you say to Grandpa?”

His smile widened. “I told him that I am pursuing you.”

Her heart skipped a beat. She now understood why her grandpa’s expression was too dark when he looked at Long Fei.

All of a sudden, Su Ruan was too embarrassed to return home and meet her grandpa.

The car was pulled over at the side road and Long Fei put on the hazard light signal. Then, he turned to face her and put on a serious look on his face. “Su Ruan.”

“Huh?”

Their gazes met and her heartbeat accelerated. His eyes were too intense. The moment she looked into his eyes, she was in a trance and had no chance to look away.

“I am very serious and sincere. I like you.”

Something was somersaulting in her stomach, making her anxious.

Although this was not the first time that he had said such words, her heart was touched. The feeling he gave was the same as the first time that he had said that he liked her.

“Would you consider dating me with marriage in mind?”

Marriage? It was not long ago that he told her that he wanted to get to know her. How did he suddenly think of marriage?

Su Ruan thought if she allowed Long Fei to speak again, she might as well get a heart attack due to many stimulations.

“You… you don’t think that it was too early to think of marriage?”

Because she was too shy, her voice became softer, tickling the heart of the person in front of her.

“If I planned to date you without considering marriage, then I would be a scum.” Long Fei smiled. “Su Ruan, I have never dated before and have no experience in dating. However, now that I decided to take this step, I don’t want to do something that would waste your time.”

Her heart fluttered. It would be a lie to say that she was not touched.

Thinking of her previous one-way feelings towards Yu Zhi Yi made her wonder just how much time she had wasted. It was indeed nice to have Long Fei speak out about his intention and goals.

If they both know what they wanted and aimed for, they would not be wasting their time.

Su Ruan pondered over his question seriously. His gaze was still on her as he was waiting for her to give her an answer.

She was not sure just how much she liked him at this time but the thought of being together with him did not make her uncomfortable.

“Okay.”

Her heart was telling her that she should take a chance and leap into this new relationship. She had decided to stop divulging into her relationship with Yu Zhi Yi that would never work and it was time to give her a chance to be happier.

Since Long Fei wanted to be given this chance, then she should trust him.

“Let’s… date.” Su Ruan spoke again.

Long Fei blinked. Even though he tried to suppress it, his lips could not stop stretching into a smile. He wanted to ask for her confirmation, to ask if she was sure of her answer. However, he was afraid that Su Ruan would reconsider and change her mind.

His hand stretched out to hold hers. Then, he leaned over and planted a kiss on the back of her hand. A glint flashed in his eyes upon seeing her shy look.

“You have said it. Su Ruan, you are not allowed to change your mind.”

“I know. What kind of person do you think I am? Since I have said it, I won’t take it back.”

Long Fei laughed. He stared at the person in front of him for a long time, suppressing the happiness that wanted to burst out. If it was not because he was afraid of scaring her, Long Fei would long pull her into his embrace again.

Once he began to calm down, Long Fei turned around and continued to drive again.

With Long Fei no longer staring at her, Su Ruan finally had time to take a deep breath and calm down.

After giving out her answer, her heart was surprisingly calm. Everything felt right. Su Ruan thought that she had made the right decision.

If Ma Hao Dong knew that his conversation with Long Fei had led his granddaughter to agree to date this man, he would definitely be furious.

Su Ruan glanced at the person beside her and an amusing thought came to her mind.

This person is now… her boyfriend.

The realization made her smile. Su Ruan turned to look at the scenery outside the window to avoid meeting his gaze and let her thoughts be exposed.

After a few seconds, she could not help but peek at him. Seeing the smile on his face made her laugh.

It turned out that this person is kind of… cute.

“What are you laughing at?”

Su Ruan coughed. “Nothing.” She immediately bit back the smile on her face. “Are you in a better mood now?”

“Hmm?”

“Just now, when you came to my place, you seemed to be in a bad mood,” Su Ruan pointed out. “Are you feeling better?”

“Mhm….” After meeting this girl and having her agree to go steady with him, how could he think of his argument with his father any more?
