Chapter 19 Let me tell you a secret

He likes you!

He likes you! !

He likes you! ! !

Zhu Shan's whole body was numb.

Zhu Shan couldn't listen to what Ling Ma said later.

Until Ling Xiao came out of the back room with a bag in his hand.

Ling Xiao, "Let's go, the plane will be delayed soon."

Zhu Shan was still a little dizzy, and suddenly Ling Xiao's face appeared in front of her eyes.

Zhu Shan's pupils widened, and then she heard him ask, "Aren't you breathing?"

breathe?

Who doesn't breathe?

Oh, he said I don't breathe.

No wonder, she felt dizzy and forgot to breathe.

Zhu Shan awkwardly "whispered" at Ling Xiao, causing the hair on his forehead to move.

Ling Xiao frowned and looked at her with a strange look, "Are you drunk too? Are you high?"

Zhu Shan said nothing.

But she did get on top.

But not because of the alcohol.

Ling's mother held the dazed Zhu Shan in her arms and comforted her, "Why do you look like you're going to cry? I'll come back to see you next time. This time I'm really pressed for time. You child is so easily moved."

Zhu Shan held back tears.

She is not moved!

She didn't dare to move!

Zhu Shan glanced at Ling Xiao, met his scrutinizing gaze, and immediately looked away.

Ling Ma stood up, told Zhu Shan to pay attention to her health, and then went to the hall to change her shoes.

It was also at this time that Zhu Shan saw Ling Xiao narrowing his eyes, pointing his index finger at her with murderous intent, and then mouthed...

yes......

wait for me?

wait for me! ! ! ! ! !

The door closed with a bang, and Zhu Shan's heart trembled.

Then he jumped on the sofa, pressed his head with a pillow, and said loudly, "Ah——"

"ah--"

"ah--"

"ah--"

"..."

Zhu Shan didn't want to scream, and she was afraid of disturbing the people, but as soon as she stopped, that's what came to her mind:

——He likes you.

Zhu Shan recalled Ling Xiao's threatening appearance before going out. She instantly got up from the sofa and rolled directly to the ground without using an elbow to support her.

She wrinkled her little face and rolled around. She didn't even have time to feel the pain, so she quickly went back to the room to get something to wash up.

Then he locked the door to his room and went to bed.

Wait for him?

Wait a shit!

Zhu Shan felt anxious inside and rolled uncomfortably on the bed.

I didn't expect Ling Xiao to hide it so deeply and have such thoughts about her.

It's so embarrassing.

Zhu Shan pulled the quilt to cover her face and fluttered her little feet a few times.

Zhu Shan was only eighteen years old that year. She was an adult in SJP and had a certain degree of autonomy. Her first thought was to restore ZG nationality.

She looked up all the ways to do this and found out that applying for ZG citizenship is the most difficult in the world.

Coupled with the death of her parents, it was almost impossible to even think about it.

Not to mention restoring ZG nationality, it would be difficult for her to apply for long-term residence.

Of course, if she has any great inventions or technical support, that's fine too.

But Zhu Shan knows herself and has nothing to do with this.

Finally, she thought of the simplest and most ridiculous method.

Like her mother, if you marry someone from ZG, you can apply after five years.

So she found Ling Yue, who said she wanted to be each other's little angel.

Ling Yue refused at that time.

However, due to Zhu Shan's perseverance, she had to agree.

Now that I think about it, I was really young and ignorant to do such a ridiculous thing.

Zhu Shan and Ling Yue agreed on a time to register their marriage at SJP.

That day, she was sitting at the airport waiting until she saw Ling Xiao walking from the crowd.

Zhu Shan rubbed her eyes, confirmed that it was Ling Xiao, turned around and ran away.

In the crowded airport, Ling Xiao's pure Chinese stood out.

He shouted, "Zhu Shanshan, stop!"

Zhu Shan really stood still as if she had 502 rubbed on her feet.

After the night when Ling Xiao objected to the Ling family's adoption of Zhu Shan, Zhu Shan stayed in the country and in the Ling family for half a year because of procedural issues.

But after that night, Zhu Shan never met or spoke to Ling Xiao again.

Because after that night, Ling Xiao has been in college and has not even been back to Ling's house during holidays and summer vacations.

So, this was the first time the two met after that night.

Zhu Shan thought that Ling Yue must have been exposed, so Ling Xiao came to deal with her. After all, even the adults in the family would not agree if they knew about it.

The more Zhu Shan thought about it, the more aggrieved she became. After planning for so long, the result was like drawing water from a bamboo basket in vain.

You also need to be taught a lesson.

Ling Xiao came over and saw Zhu Shan with her head hanging down and crying.

He was silent for a while, and then said, "Do you want to get married?"

Zhu Shan was a little shocked. Her eyes moved from his toes to his face, and she cried and said, "You found out, how can I still get married?"

"Ling Yue is only eighteen years old. Even if you register with SJP, he cannot return to the country to go to the embassy for notarization."

He didn't scold her.

Still analyzing?

Zhu Shan didn't quite understand the reason.

But thinking that he was a top student in the law department, I didn't think much about it.

Zhu Shan sniffed and raised her hand to wipe away her tears, "Oh."

It's hard to tell what she was feeling at that time.

Maybe I was worried about this matter to begin with, but couldn't complete it due to serious reasons.

Sad, suddenly less.

Zhu Shan withdrew her gaze and walked towards the airport exit.

Suddenly, her wrist was grabbed.

She turned her head and met Ling Xiao's sharp eyebrows.

After a long time, Ling Xiao finally spoke, "I will register your marriage with you."

During the time of registration, Zhu Shan's head was so confused that she couldn't even distinguish between left and right.

Everything is led by Ling Xiao.

The moment she got the marriage certificate, Zhu Shan was confused.

She suddenly realized that Ling Xiao had brought all the documents and even applied for all the procedures before coming.

It means that he is here to marry her.

In the taxi from her aunt's house to the airport, Zhu Shan couldn't help but asked him why he wanted to help her.

Ling Xiao had just been scolded by Aunt Zhu Shan. He closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair, saying that he was afraid that she would be careless and harm others.

Zhu Shan was very angry.

How could she have the courage? She only wanted to harm Ling Yue.

But the next second, he opened his eyes and looked at Zhu Shan, "I'm afraid you will be cheated."

Zhu Shan had also thought about the purpose of Ling Xiao's marriage to herself.

Maybe it was to rescue Ling Yue.

Maybe she's afraid that she'll fool others, or be cheated.

Maybe she still had some conscience left, and felt guilty for opposing the Ling family's adoption of her, so she helped her.

Of all the possibilities, there is absolutely no possibility that he likes her.

Zhu Shan really had a headache.

Why have you been secretly loved for so many years for no reason?

She thought again of what Wu Jing said tonight, childhood sweetheart...

I don’t know how long it took, but there was a thunder outside the window, and Zhu Shan opened her eyes instantly.

She took out her phone and it was already early in the morning.

She drank a lot of drinks at the dinner party, and now she couldn't hold it in anymore and had to go to the toilet.

But he was afraid that Ling Xiao would come back suddenly and hit him.

Zhu Shan struggled on the bed for a while, then carefully opened the door and took a look. The hall was dark.

Zhu Shan turned on the flashlight on her mobile phone and secretly went to the bathroom.

When she was washing her hands after going to the toilet, Zhu Shan looked at the big mirror in front of the sink, and her pretty face was reflected in it.

Although her face is round, her eyes are big, her nose is high, and her lips are beautiful.

Then she turned off the faucet, wiped the water off her hands, and turned sideways in front of the mirror.

She actually has a good figure too.

That's Ling Xiao's fault...

Zhu Shan pursed her lips, raised her head and counted the time carefully, deducing that Ling Xiao had been secretly in love with her for at least six years.

She was... sixteen?

At such a young age, isn't Ling Xiao a little abnormal?

Zhu Shan shrugged her shoulders in panic.

Immediately, she began to think about how arrogant Ling Xiao was, who had secretly been in love with her for so many years.

In order to prevent her from becoming his sister, he opposed adoption and was beaten by his mother for the first time in his life, and she complained about him for so many years.

Especially since she hadn't spoken to him in all these years.

I think he was in a lot of trouble.

How depressed and miserable he must be.

But he still waited for her wholeheartedly.

If you think about it carefully, his love is not traceless.

Don't let her become his sister in name only.

Came to SJP to register her marriage.

When he learned that she was arrested and taken to the police station after returning to China, he immediately came to rescue her even if there was a lawsuit.

He also found nonsensical reasons for her to live with him.

Thinking about it, everything makes sense.

This is the love that a tsundere man endures.

Zhu Shan suddenly felt very sorry for Ling Xiao because she couldn't give him the love he wanted.

She was destined to fail him.

He is destined to love but not get it.

The more Zhu Shan thought about it, the more guilty she became.

She thought for a long time and then called Ling Yue.

The dial rang for a while, and Ling Yue picked up the phone. His voice was very sleepy and hoarse, but his attitude was excellent, "Page, have you forgiven me?"

"Let's not talk about that first. Let me ask you something."

"Well, you say."

Zhu Shan licked her dry lips, "That's it...Ling Xiao, has he ever been in love?"

"Ah?" Ling Yue obviously didn't react.

Zhu Shan repeated, "Ling Xiao, have you ever been in love?"

"No! Even though your marriage is fake, he can't fall in love with others, right? How can you explain this to others? Even a girl can't accept it, right?"

Zhu Shan sighed, after all, she was the one who delayed him.

She continued to ask, "I mean, after I went abroad, before he married me, and the period in between for more than a year!"

At that time, Ling Xiao was in his junior or senior year.

It is said that love is most likely to happen in college.

Besides, there is no shortage of beautiful girls around Ling Xiao that he admires.

Ling Yue answered quickly without any hesitation, "No."

"you sure?"

"Of course! He has never been in love."

Zhu Shan said "oh" softly.

I think you are right.

Because he loves her so much, he has been keeping his body as pure as jade.

Ling Yue felt that Zhu Shan was a little strange, "You called me at night and asked me what questions?"

"Let me...sigh..."

Zhu Shan's silence scratched Ling Yue's heart like an ant.

His tone was completely sober, "Why are you hesitating? Just say it if you have something to say!"

Zhu Shan drew randomly on the sink with her fingers, and said in an awkward tone, "It's hard for me to talk about this. After all, it's his privacy."

There was a long pause on the other side of the phone before a voice came, "My brother? What's wrong with my brother?"

Zhu Shan sighed again and straightened her hair around her ears in front of the mirror, "This is his secret, so I'll tell you alone. Don't tell anyone, and don't ask him, okay?"

"Okay, tell me!"

Zhu Shan smacked her lips and sighed, "It's really hard to talk about this."

Ling Yue exploded, "Don't you say I fell asleep!"

"Gee, can you be a little patient?"

"No." Ling Yue was no longer patient. To be precise, he was almost going crazy from the secret. He directly threatened, "I'm hanging up!"

"Wait, wait, wait." Zhu Shan hurriedly stopped him from hanging up the phone and said, "It's very embarrassing. You also know the guy he is. He usually drags away people worth 2,500,000 to 80,000 yuan. If this thing about him is exposed, I'm afraid. Gotta collapse.”

"..."

Zhu Shan reminded Ling Yue, "You know about his marriage to me, right?"

"I know." Ling Yue responded to what Zhu Shan had just said. His tone suddenly changed and he hesitated, "You mean...you mean...my brother...he likes..."

Zhu Shan looked at herself in the mirror, nodded, and said "yes" heavily.

Ling Yue was obviously shocked. He could hear him jumping up from the bed, and his tone was excited, "So, he didn't fall in love these years, and then went to fake marriage with you?"

Zhu Shan curled her lips helplessly. She just clicked on the video, and Ling Yue understood it immediately.

So if you think about it carefully, it's not difficult to guess Ling Xiao's love for her.

It’s just that everyone hasn’t thought about it at all.

But each and every one of these is his silent love.

Zhu Shan sighed again and said solemnly, "That's it, I'm in a dilemma too."

Ling Yue was silent for a long time.

After being urged by Zhu Shan, she spoke, "Page, you also grew up with my brother. The past is in the past. Don't think too much about it and don't destroy his face. You have to keep this matter a secret."

Zhu Shan nodded, extremely reasonable, "I understand."

"I hope you..." Ling Yue hesitated again and said, "Your role is very important. You should enlighten him more. He has been holding this in for so many years. It's really pitiful."

"Oh, don't worry, I understand."

After a few more explanations, Ling Yue hung up the phone.

He stood by the window and felt that the May night breeze was particularly cold.

It turns out that his brother has never been in love and even had a fake marriage with Zhu Shan, all for this reason.

Ling Yue scratched his hair, unable to accept it.

Although he has always set his goal to defeat Ling Xiao, he is his brother after all, his biological brother.

What he loves more about him is love.

But he...how could he like a man?

Ling Yue couldn't hold it back and cried several times in the middle of the night.
