Hu Yanjie, who usually just grinned foolishly through his girlfriend's scoldings, was now completely serious, his smile gone.
He said, word by word, "Xiaoxiao, when we were together before, you were always so hesitant, worried about what your best friends would think, worried about what my friends would think. When it's just the two of us, why should we care about anyone else?"
"I…"
Yu Xiaoxiao started to respond but was promptly cut off by Hu Yanjie.
"You may be tall to outsiders at one-hundred eighty-three centimeters, but to me, you'll always be a little girl."
Hu Yanjie said earnestly, "You don't always have to be so strong. You can lean on me and act a little spoiled; I'm willing to be your strongest support."
BOOM!
The confession sent a cheer through the bar so loud it nearly blew the roof off.
Ruan Lan, who loved to stir the pot, yelled, "Kiss him!"
"Go on, Xiaoxiao." Even Li Li was egging her on.
What followed happened naturally.
