Chapter 941: Chapter 941: Five Years’ Time “I haven’t said that I like you again, I haven’t forced you to do anything, but tell me, why do you still treat me this way? Is it wrong for me to like you?” Leng Yan stared into her eyes, asking heavily. Xia Nuo didn’t know how to answer, it’s not wrong for him to like her, it’s that she can’t like him. But she absolutely couldn’t tell him these things, couldn’t let him know that she also likes him. After several years of interacting with Leng Yan, Xia Nuo knows how stubborn he is; if she uses force, he might not give up. To dispel his thoughts of liking her, she can only do it gradually. She pushed his body slightly and said calmly, “Sit properly. Since we’ve come to this point, there are some things I want to clarify with you.” Seeing her serious expression, Leng Yan had no choice but to let her go and sit properly beside her. Xia Nuo sighed and said, “Initially, when you said you like me, I thought you were merely impulsive, maybe your interest wouldn’t last more than a few days. But now it seems, I underestimated you. Leng Yan, you and I have a five-year age difference, and that’s an obvious fact. The more you tell me these things now, the less I can accept them. So here’s the deal, before I graduate college, let’s not talk about relationships, shall we? If… by that time you still like me, I’ll consider being with you.” This period of a few years is meant as a buffer for both of them. They are young now, and neither can be sure how true their feelings are. Only time can test everything. Xia Nuo thought that Leng Yan would not agree to her proposal, but unexpectedly, he agreed readily. “Alright, I promise, I won’t talk to you about relationships before you graduate college. But you must also promise me, during this period, you can’t date, can’t get married, if you can do it, I can do it too.” Xia Nuo instinctively wanted to nod, but then thought twice, “If I meet someone I truly like, should I be able to…” “No!” Leng Yan interrupted her gravely, “I don’t care who you’ll fall for, during the agreed period, you can’t date, can’t marry, can’t engage with any man. If… if you break the agreement, I’ll break it too!” At this moment, Xia Nuo seemed to see the fierce energy in his eyes. He had always been compliant in front of her; suddenly hearing him speak firmly to her, she couldn’t help being stunned. Leng Yan’s deep black eyes stared at her, waiting for her response. Xia Nuo felt helpless, did she have a choice? “Fine, I promise you.” Leaving Leng Yan’s home, Xia Nuo felt a sense of exhaustion. Now she is in her second year of high school, at least five years away from college graduation, five years can change many things. She sincerely hopes that five or six years later, he and she can both forget each other and find someone else they like. Leng Yan no longer comes to her house for dinner; Mrs. Xia and Mr. Xia asked about the matter, but Xia Nuo couldn’t say anything, only answered that she didn’t know, answering ‘I don’t know’ to everything they asked. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel※fire.net They went personally to find Leng Yan to inquire, not knowing what Leng Yan said, but her parents didn’t pursue the matter further. Life returned to plainness, everything seemed to return to days before Leng Yan. The dining table at her home no longer has Leng Yan, going to and from school no longer has Leng Yan, everything no longer has him, she only occasionally meets him. Until this moment, Xia Nuo truly felt,
