No-head 18th confession (first time over 20,000 words and thousands of clicks, celebrating with extra updates)

  Is it Yuan Rui? What did he come running for?

  Calm down and exchange a look with Ming Yan, he hinted that I should see what's going on before speaking.

  As for Yuan Rui, I have always been respectful and distant from him. I never thought that a quiet and unknown girl like me would catch his attention, and he can still remember me after all these years.

  He secretly admired his incredible memory and smiled politely with a distant heart, asking: "What brings you to me?"

  He looked a bit dazed, probably because my attitude was too cold and had extinguished his enthusiasm. Frowning and staring at my face, he said: "When we were in school, I thought you were very special. All the other girls would openly or secretly pursue me, but only you ignored me. Why?"

  "Did you catch up just to ask such a childish question?" I didn't expect him to ask such a childish question as soon as he came up, and I couldn't help but burst out laughing. I licked my lips with a smile at him, but his eyes were very serious, not like he was joking.

  "Alright, I suppose that's enough." His seriousness made me a bit overwhelmed, so I shrugged and replied: "You're right, you're handsome and rich, and you know how to treat girls well. However, young master, don't forget that there are many other good-looking men in this world, and you're not the center of the universe. It's not necessary for everyone to revolve around you! Are you satisfied with this answer? That's all, goodbye!"

  Immature, brain-damaged, narcissistic! You really think you're a big deal! Luckily I came to my senses in time back then, or else I would have been stupid enough to like someone as self-absorbed as you.

  Having money is really something! I didn't expect Yuan Rui to be so furious, and he turned around and left. Ming Yan followed me and said with a smile in his voice, "He seems to be very angry, and he actually caught up."

  "Don't bother with him, such a person doesn't know the height of heaven and earth, I won't fall for his tricks." I didn't even turn my head back, directly pressed the doorbell and entered the elevator, looking at Yuan Rui who had already rushed over, smiling slyly and waving his hand, because he couldn't catch this elevator.

  I've really calmed down now and feel a bit regretful, like I offended someone I shouldn't have. No matter what, he's still Yuan Xue's older brother, and during this time, we'll inevitably keep running into each other!

  Alas, I acted on impulse!

  "Regret again?" I walked out of the elevator listlessly, Ming Yan always understood me, with a smile on his face.

  Looking around to make sure no one was listening, and seeing that the waiters were all busy with their own tasks, I finally spoke up: "It's a bit...no matter what, she is Xiao Yuanxue's older brother, and we'll still have to work together in the future. It wouldn't be good if things became awkward between us."

  "Don't worry, he won't be so petty. I think he'll come after us, do you believe me?" He said with a smile, his dark eyes narrowing slightly.

  I think he's very confident, with a tilted head and a skeptical shake of his head.

  Ming Yan's smile grew even wider this time, and he patted my shoulder. "How about we make a bet? I bet he'll come after you to argue. If I lose, I won't bother you again and will listen to everything you say. But if I win..."

  He stopped halfway through what he was saying and didn't continue.

  I furrowed my brow and asked: "What will you do if you win?"

  He sank into thought for a moment and said cautiously: "This stake is very important, I want to think carefully about it. If I win the gamble, what reward should I get? But one thing is certain - I will win."

  His smile is as dazzling as the sunshine on a spring day, and his confident demeanor has added to his charm.

  I stubbornly withdrew my gaze, turned around and walked forward, saying defiantly: "Hmph, if I'm going to bet, he's so arrogant that he won't come after me to argue!"

  To quell the arrogant momentum of Ming Yan, I quickened my pace towards the door. In just a few short minutes, I didn't believe Yuan Rui could run that fast!

  A faintly heard voice full of laughter came from beside him, "Lift your head and take a look, who is that at the door?"

  He suddenly lifted his head and looked forward, this time it was my turn to be stunned. Clenching his fists and casting a sideways glance at Ming Yan, he walked towards the young man who was panting heavily.

  With a gloomy face, because of losing at gambling and being in a bad mood, "Young Master, why are you more troublesome than a ghost?! What do you want to say?!"

  Yuan Rui strode over, his imposing aura making me pant slightly as I retreated step by step. I watched him warily, knowing he excelled at quick attacks, and focused my spirit to observe his movements, stuttering out a warning: "Hey, don't get reckless! A real man doesn't fight with women. If you dare move against me, you're not a man."

  He stopped in his tracks a few steps away from me, and I secretly rejoiced that he was still a man of some stature, with some air and breadth.

  But never in a million years did I think that what he said next would stun not only me and Ming Yan, but also everyone passing by.

  "Yin Yue, I've decided to pursue you, and I won't give up until I succeed!"

  "...I twitched at the corner of my mouth and exchanged a glance with Ming Yan, then rolled my eyes heavenward. God, don't play such jokes, okay?"
