Chapter 968: Chapter 971: Revenge Plan 1
As Li Tingyan spoke, the people around erupted into cheers and whistles, while Nianyang lowered her head.
How annoying, why is my nose so stuffy, why is the scene in front of me becoming blurry?
Tears welled up in Nianyang’s eyes. She sniffed and spoke with a tearful voice, "Li Tingyan, did you do it on purpose?"
"Hmm, what’s wrong?" Li Tingyan’s gaze was very gentle.
Nianyang’s tears still fell as she spoke in a choked voice, "You always know how to make me angry, make me sad, and then say sweet things to make me cry. How can you be so bad, such a jerk?"
Li Tingyan panicked when he saw Nianyang cry, reverting to that honest demeanor. Not daring to embrace her, he awkwardly reached out to wipe her tears, "Why are you crying? Aren’t women supposed to like romance? I wanted to make you smile, not make you cry. Nini, please don’t cry. It’s all my fault. I’m the jerk. I’m the bad one. Is that okay?"
Nianyang wiped her eyes, "It was your fault in the first place, and you still say it so reluctantly. Don’t think that by doing these things, you can make everything right. I haven’t even confronted you about leaving me this morning!"
Li Tingyan playfully tapped her red nose, "What is it, Nini? Do you miss me?"
"Who misses you? Don’t flatter yourself!"
Nianyang glared at him angrily, firmly refusing to admit it.
Li Tingyan took the opportunity to wrap his arm around her shoulders, indulgently and indulgently saying, "Yes, yes, I’m flattering myself. I’m shamelessly clinging to you. Is that okay?"
Nianyang huffed, "Who taught you this trick?"
Li Tingyan was taken aback, "What?"
"Don’t play dumb. Someone like you wouldn’t think of such a romantic gesture. It’s obvious someone else taught you."
Li Tingyan rubbed his nose, "Yes, it was Shi Feng who taught me."
Just as I suspected.
Shi Feng, the second prince, having been through countless flowers, naturally knows how to play these flirty tricks.
"What’s wrong, Nini? You don’t like it?"
Nianyang pouted, "Don’t learn these frivolous things from Shi Feng."
"As you wish!" Li Tingyan asked cautiously, "So, Nini, have you forgiven me?"
Nianyang bit her lip, "If I didn’t forgive you, do you think you could have made it to my bed last night?"
Actually, last night, Li Tingyan didn’t even use much force.
If she wanted to refuse, she could have kicked him off the bed.
But she didn’t; she accepted him.
In reality, it was just her giving them both a way out.
Li Tingyan’s eyes shone brightly, unable to resist kissing Nianyang’s cheek, "Thank you, Nini, thank you for giving me a chance. I promise I won’t make you sad in the future. If I break my word, let me die!"
"Shut up!" Nianyang quickly covered his mouth upon hearing the word "die". Is that something you can just say?
She remembered that he still had a deathly ordeal to overcome, and her heart instantly lifted with worry.
Li Tingyan removed Nianyang’s hand, noting that they were surrounded by familiar faces. He tore open a strawberry candy, placed it in his mouth, and kissed Nianyang without regard for the setting.
Having resolved her inner conflict, Nianyang no longer felt shy. When he leaned in to kiss her, she passionately responded.
The soft strawberry milk candy swirled between their entwined tongues, enveloping them in its rich, sweet flavor.
Parents and elders around them watched the scene with relief, knowing the couple’s conflict had finally been resolved.
Everything was so beautiful.
