Chapter 47 Perhaps I don't like him

  "What? You rejected Hei Juanyan's confession?" Jin Muxi jumped up from the bed, saying to me in surprise.

  "Uh..." I nodded honestly.

  "That's to say he found out about your disguise as a man, and it seems like he's known for some time... He didn't tell anyone else, did he?" Jin Mu Xi asked hastily.

  "This... I don't know how long he's known, all I know is that he hasn't told anyone else and he's promised to keep it a secret for me..." I said.

  "Why? Hei Cong is a great guy, handsome and kind. I've been watching him, he's always helping you at critical moments. Don't you like him?" Jin Mu Xi asked, re-crossing her legs and sitting in front of me again.

  "Actually... I don't really mind him..."

  "Then why didn't you agree with him?" Jin Mu Xi interrupted me.

  "This... I don't know how to say it, anyway... Mom told me that when you like someone, your heart beats faster when you see them, and being with them makes you feel at ease and sweet. But I don't have any of those symptoms, so that proves I don't like him! Why be with someone you don't like?" I muttered to myself.

  Maybe I really don't like him...

  "Well, that makes sense... But you shouldn't reject him outright either. As the saying goes, 'familiarity breeds affection', who knows, you might end up liking him in the future!" Jin Mu Xi said with a serious expression, shaking her little head.

  "This... actually I don't deny what Jin Mu Xi said either, but will there really be such a day?"

  "Don't you think what I said makes sense now? Regret rejecting him, huh?" Jin Mu Xi said with a smile.

  "Kim, although what you said makes sense, I don't regret rejecting him because I told the truth. At least I don't like him now, and if I drag it out and let him hold onto hope and expectation, but in the end still don't like him, the hurt will be even greater than it is now. So, better to suffer a short pain than a long one..." I thought for a moment before speaking my mind.

  "If I really fall in love with him later... let's talk about it then, a road will always appear when the car reaches the mountain..." I smiled.

  "You're really optimistic... " Jin Mu Xi burst out laughing.

  "That's..." I also smiled and nodded, then changed to a very gossipy face, smiling and poking Jin Muxi's arm, "Sister Kim likes who now? Tell me too..."

  "I..." Jin Mu Xi's face turned red immediately.

  "Haha, you don't have to say it, I can tell, you've fallen for Jin Muyin? Right, little girl?" I looked at her rosy face, planning to tease her some more.

  "Xī Chéng Cǎi ēn, how can you be so bad!" As expected, Jīn Mù Xī's face turned even redder, she pretended to be angry and raised her fist to punch me.

  "I give up... I give up..." I hastily begged for mercy, damn it, this guy's got a heavy hand...

  Poor old waist of mine...

  "To be honest, I found out that I might really like Jin, I like the way he stares at me, I like the way he cares about me, I like... everything about him!" Jin Mu Xi enumerated one by one for me to hear.

  "In short, it's just that I like him! It seems our Miss Kim has fallen in love!" I joked.

  See you soon!
