Chapter 181: Chapter 181 I Like You Too_1

Wei Xuelian looked at the three dishes and one soup on the table, somewhat surprised, "I thought, you could only cook instant noodles?"

"Come on, try my cooking." Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile, urging her.

Wei Xuelian picked up a thin slice of king oyster mushroom with bamboo chopsticks, placed it in her mouth, and slowly chewed. Her sparkling big eyes revealed a touch of brilliance.

"Tea-flavored king oyster mushrooms, not bad! It turns out your cooking skills are so good!"

"I’m just lazy," Bai Xiaosheng said proudly, "I keep a low profile until I do something amazing. That’s me, Bai Xiaosheng!"

Lazy, and proud of it!

Wei Xuelian pursed her lips and smiled.

The two of them finished the three dishes and soup cleanly.

Bai Xiaosheng had cooked the meal. At Wei Xuelian’s strong request, she cleaned up the dining table and washed the dishes.

When she returned to the dining table, she found that Bai Xiaosheng had already made tea. There was also an ancient-looking sandalwood box on the table.

"What is this?"

Surprised, Wei Xuelian watched as Bai Xiaosheng pushed the box towards her.

Wei Xuelian opened it.

Inside was a lustrous green jade bracelet.

The color was rich and steady, the quality smooth and flawless, exuding a noble beauty and the aura of an emperor.

"Glass-Type Imperial Green!" Wei Xuelian looked at Bai Xiaosheng in astonishment, carefully picked it up, and admired, "I heard from Shuying that at Antique Jade City, you gambled for a piece of jade worth a fortune. I didn’t expect it to have been made into a bracelet already, it’s beautiful!"

"It’s for you," Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile.

"For me?" Wei Xuelian was somewhat surprised and laughed, "Why? What day is it today? You’re cooking and giving me gifts, especially something so valuable."

"Today is the hundredth day since we met," Bai Xiaosheng mustered his courage, looking at Wei Xuelian. "I want to tell you that, actually, I..."

Before Bai Xiaosheng could finish his sentence, a slender, snow-white finger like a scallion gently pressed against his lips.

Wei Xuelian’s cheeks turned a rosy red, flustered, with a dazed look in her eyes.

She bit her lower lip, "I, I know how you feel about me... But, I can’t, I’m not able to..."

Wei Xuelian stumbled over her words, not knowing how to express her urgency.

Bai Xiaosheng looked slightly dejected.

"Don’t get me wrong, I, I also..." Wei Xuelian said, becoming even more anxious.

Bai Xiaosheng softened his gaze, gently took Wei Xuelian’s hand, and moved it away.

"I know you have concerns; I’m not forcing you to make a statement. I just like you, and I never had the courage to say it. Now, I just want to tell you—I like you! And if you like me, I promise, within three years, I’ll make sure that all the obstacles in front of us are no longer problems!"

Bai Xiaosheng spoke with a determined expression, his words full of authority.

Wei Xuelian looked at him steadily, her eyes slowly melting into pools of autumn water. She was not a timid girl, or else she wouldn’t have ventured alone to Tiannan.

"I like you, too!"

Wei Xuelian broke the silence, her gaze firm, repeating, "I like you!"

Bai Xiaosheng’s smile was more radiant than ever before.

There were six days left until the project launch, and he had faced the darkest moment of his professional career. Yet, on the same day, he welcomed the spring of his life.

Wei Xuelian accepted Bai Xiaosheng’s gift; her fair wrist matched well with the jade bracelet.

Bai Xiaosheng didn’t know how difficult it was for her to take that step, but he knew that for the next three years, he now had powerful responsibility and motivation!

A man’s promise to a woman!

At this moment, the two of them leaned on each other.

Their expressions were sweet.

"I heard your project is now facing great trouble?" Wei Xuelian asked, resting her head on Bai Xiaosheng’s arm.

Previously, Bai Xiaosheng had told her about many things on the project, including fun and bothersome matters. Wei Xuelian knew about Treles Square. She had also watched that distinctive media live broadcast online, even feeling thrilled by Bai Xiaosheng’s wit.

She even knew Xiangdong Plaza was their biggest competitor, opening the same day as theirs.

At the moment, Wei Moran’s concert was in Xiangdong Plaza, where the momentum was overwhelming, attracting everyone’s attention.

Teles Square became suddenly quiet and silent.

Wei Xuelian’s eyes flickered slightly. By the time she found out, Mo Ran’s promotion had already started and was stirring up Tiannan; she couldn’t change it, and there was no longer any need to inform Bai Xiaosheng.

All Wei Xuelian could do was to follow the situation with silent concern.

Moreover, she didn’t believe that Bai Xiaosheng really had no strategies left!

Bai Xiaosheng was, after all, the man whom even Lu Yun and Song Kai had praised highly!

"Ah, it’s a bit troublesome, the opponent made quite a vicious move," Bai Xiaosheng exclaimed with a sigh, as he gently touched Wei Xuelian’s soft, black hair and smiled, "Do you think I’m being terribly irresponsible? Encountering a big problem at work, yet here I am, leaving everyone on the project behind to woo my girlfriend."

When Bai Xiaosheng mentioned the words "my girlfriend," he couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride.

Wei Xuelian smiled and gave him a playful look.

"Don’t worry, I haven’t given up! It’s just a temporary avoidance. The earlier I counterattack, the smaller the chance of final victory," Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t resist sighing and said with a wry smile, "I didn’t expect this Wei Moran to have such a huge influence. These next few days, I need to figure out how to counterattack!"

"Do you need my help with anything?" Wei Xuelian stared at Bai Xiaosheng, her voice gentle as she tentatively asked.

She didn’t dare to speak loudly, afraid that being too direct would hurt Bai Xiaosheng’s pride.

And could she really be of help?

To convince Mo Ran to change the concert venue?

And what would be the reason?

To say that her new boyfriend was involved in a competing project?

Wei Xuelian couldn’t let Wei Moran know about these things yet.

So there she was, hesitating and unsure about how she could possibly be of help.

"No need!" Bai Xiaosheng waved his hand grandly, his white teeth shining with a sunny smile, "If I can’t handle this little trouble, how could I ever proudly call myself your boyfriend!"

Wei Xuelian gave him a glance and stifled a laugh.

She really liked Bai Xiaosheng’s confidence.

The two of them nestled together, talking late into the night. Eventually, Wei Xuelian had to leave, and Bai Xiaosheng felt a pang of reluctance.

"It’s late, I have to go back and prepare my lessons. I have my training class tomorrow," Wei Xuelian said earnestly.

"Alright, don’t overwork yourself, it’s easy to get wrinkles," Bai Xiaosheng said, feeling a bit sorry for her.

Wei Xuelian smiled sweetly, turned around, and left.

Bai Xiaosheng watched her figure disappear out the door, still smiling foolishly.

Until, his phone started to ring.

Bai Xiaosheng came back to his senses and frowned slightly. His phone was in airplane mode, but WeChat was still active.

Someone was looking for him?

No one from the project had his WeChat.

So who was it?

Bai Xiaosheng opened WeChat and was surprised to find a message from Zhang Min.

The woman from Antique Jade City whom he had saved? Bai Xiaosheng immediately thought of her graceful figure and the face full of freckles.

Bai Xiaosheng read the message.

A big smiling face, followed by a line.

"Do you want to see Wei Moran’s Tiannan concert? I have tickets, I’ll give you one!"

Tickets to Wei Moran’s concert?

Bai Xiaosheng blinked. He remembered that during their conversation just now, Xuelian had mentioned she liked this Wei Moran!

Hurriedly, Bai Xiaosheng got up to look for Wei Xuelian.

Wei Xuelian was pacing back and forth in her room, hesitating and holding her phone.

"Should I, or shouldn’t I ask Mo Ran for help?"
