Chapter 1431: I Like You, But I Won’t Force You

Qin Shen Shen didn’t expect Huo Jinyan to ask so directly; she really hadn’t figured out how to answer.

It was clearly a very joyful thing, like winning the lottery.

However, ironically, she didn’t dare, fearing that after agreeing, it would be an abyss.

"Forget it, I won’t push you. Think it over, I’ll give you some days to calm down." Huo Jinyan actually knew Qin Shen Shen liked him.

He probably also knew that Qin Shen Shen had concerns.

So, he was willing to give her time to consider.

Qin Shen Shen bit her lip, biting it tightly; this was an idea she dared not even dream of.

She didn’t even know when her feelings had changed.

Huo Jinyan gave her another hug, "I’m heading back. Get some rest. Don’t overthink it, and don’t pressure yourself."

With a final "Bye," he opened the door and left.

After Huo Jinyan left, Qin Shen Shen sat on the sofa, unable to react for quite a while.

Sitting there in a daze for half an hour, she still wondered if it had been a dream.

She still couldn’t believe it, dared not believe, that Huo Jinyan confessed to her.

How could she possibly remain indifferent? But she also admitted she felt inferior.

Such an outstanding man, so dazzling like the stars, and what about her?

So insignificant, blending into the crowd, not particularly remarkable.

Actually, Qin Shen Shen was a very impressive girl.

At 167 centimeters tall, her features, even if not exceptionally stunning, were quite exquisite.

If she seriously groomed herself, she wouldn’t be inferior to rising star He Xuri.

Qin Shen Shen was destined not to sleep tonight.

After all, she couldn’t digest this reality.

After washing up, Qin Shen Shen lay in bed, and indeed, as she predicted, she wasn’t sleepy at all.

Closing her eyes, all she could see were Huo Jinyan’s deep, affectionate eyes.

So full of emotion, who could resist?

When she was a fan, watching him gaze so affectionately at the female lead in movies, she felt envious.

She even imagined replacing the female lead with herself.

But now that in real life he looked at her like this and confessed, she dared not even accept it.

"Qin Shen Shen, you’re really useless." Qin Shen Shen wasn’t the type to only care about having once owned something, rather than having it last.

She feared losing, and feared that if she dated Huo Jinyan, she would become suspicious, neurotic.

She once thought if you liked someone, you’d want to be together forever.

But what about Huo Jinyan?

Knowing he liked her too, if she missed out on him, she’d regret it for life.

If she accepted and then broke up soon after, she’d never care for anyone again, dwelling in sorrow for a lifetime.

Qin Shen Shen didn’t sleep the entire night, caught in her tangled thoughts, until it was six in the morning.

She simply got up again and, though she never liked exercise, went for a run for a few kilometers.

Originally she wanted to release some tension, but it didn’t help at all.

Holding her phone, she posted a Weibo update with a side account.

[Deep Deep’s Deep Deep: The person you like is like the sun, bright and resplendent, like the bright moon to be admired, like a dazzling galaxy... but when that person confesses to you, you’re still afraid...]

After posting, Qin Shen Shen refreshed her Weibo feed.

Huo Jinyan’s popularity remained high.

Netizens were still curious about whom he liked.

Who was the lucky one?
