Chapter 184: Do you love me?!

  In the face of Bai Yujie's provocation, Wang Xue was so angry that she wanted to chop her into pieces, but fortunately Xu had been by her side to persuade her, otherwise there would have been a big fuss. After dinner, Zhang Ziheng's parents called their son to the room and had a good chat with him.

  In the face of his parents' uncomprehending gaze, Zhang Ziheng was too lazy to explain, so he lit a cigarette and listened to them talk while smoking. Finally, after more than an hour of listening to his mother speak, Zhang Ziheng was almost asleep.

  "Your mom has been talking for so long, did you listen to her or not? Hurry up and make a decision, dragging things out like this makes others look down on our family!" Zhang Ziheng's mother said with a frown.

  "Yes, son. Your mom is right. Although that girl Wang Xue is also quite good, but Yujie has known you for a longer time after all, so..."

  "So you're saying I should break up with Xue Er and get back together with Yu Jie, right? This isn't even giving me a choice, it's like you've already made the decision for me. Dad, Mom, I understand what you're thinking, but...but I really can't do something like that." Zhang Zi Heng said.

  "Son, you're making things difficult for me. Yu Jie came yesterday and bought a lot of things for me, spending so much money... "

  "Oh, so Xue'er gave you fewer flowers? When you were in B City, they treated you like a mother. This time back, look at those things, all bought by her, I didn't spend a single penny, why don't you say anything? And Dad, look at you, you're still using the lighter Xue'er bought for you."

  When Zhang Ziheng said that, Zhang Ziheng's father hurriedly put down the lighter in his hand and said, "Can't I just give up?" Although he said so with his mouth, he still looked at the lighter with a reluctant expression.

  "Alright, I'll take care of my own affairs. Don't worry about me anymore. Yu Jie and I are done, if you keep talking, I'll lose my temper!"

  "Hey, this kid, how can he still not listen to you? Look at him, this is your son." Zhang Ziheng's mom said with a frown.

  "Ah, isn't that your son?"

  Despite Zhang Ziheng's parents' repeated efforts, they were unable to persuade him. By evening, due to the limited space at home, Xu and Bai Yujie had no choice but to check into a hotel. Lying on his bed in his own room, Zhang Ziheng felt so relaxed, so natural, and so comfortable that even Wang Xue lying beside him sensed a change in him.

  "Does it feel that good to be back home? You're smiling like you've picked up a fortune." Wang Xue said with a smile.

  "Alas, only after leaving did I realize that no bed is comparable to one's own. No matter how good it is outside, it's not one's own; only home is truly one's own." Zhang Ziheng sighed.

  "Hehe, nonsense, am I not yours?"

  "You're mine now, but that's not necessarily the case in the future. What if one day you run off with some handsome guy? Then you'll belong to someone else." Zhang Ziheng said with a smile.

  "Don't worry, unless you've done something to wrong me, otherwise, you can't get rid of me for the rest of your life."

  "Cough, ah... Xue'er, let me make an analogy. If one day I... if I were to cheat on you, hypothetically speaking, if I liked another girl and even did something that wronged you, would you... would you..."

  Wang Xue furrowed her brow and looked at him, saying: "Will something happen? You tell me."

  "Will you do something extreme? For example... will you cut people with a knife?" Zhang Ziheng asked cautiously.

  After hearing Zhang Ziheng's words, Wang Xue was puzzled. She knew that Ziheng wouldn't say such things without reason, so something must have happened. Thinking of this, Wang Xue's heart skipped a beat. Without saying another word, she sat up from the bed and grabbed Zhang Ziheng's neck with both hands, saying: "You scoundrel, did you do something to wrong me? You... are you with Bai Yujie that fox spirit... you and her... you..."

  "Ugh... cough, Xue, let go, I'm going to be choked to death by you." Zhang Ziheng's face was bright red as he said.

  "Hmph, it would be better if I strangled you to death. If I strangled you to death, you wouldn't do anything that wrongs me again. Don't worry, once you're dead, I'll immediately kill myself to accompany you. That way, even if you go to the underworld, I'll still follow you." Wang Xue said with a glare.

  At first, Zhang Ziheng thought Wang Xue was just a little angry, but her strength grew greater and his breathing became increasingly difficult. It wasn't until then that he realized she was serious. Zhang Ziheng hastily grabbed her hand, prying it open with force, before suddenly embracing her tightly in his arms.

  "Xue, Xuer, don't be impulsive, you... listen... just listen to me." Zhang Ziheng said while panting heavily.

  "I won't listen, let me go, let me go. I'm telling you, Zhang Ziheng, today it's either your death or my death, in any case, you won't survive today." Wang Xue struggled to say.

  Alas, it seems that just talking is useless, and I have to resort to a desperate move. Zhang Ziheng cupped Wang Xue's head with both hands, then opened his mouth and gave her a wet kiss. Thinking to himself that this should be the end of it? But he miscalculated this time, Wang Xue was truly angry, not only did she not accept his kiss, but instead bit his lips back in return.

  Wang Xue raised her head, licked the blood at the corner of her mouth and said: "Hmph, think you can get away with it? Dream on."

  Zhang Ziheng furrowed his brow and looked at her, saying: "Xue'er, what are you doing? It hurts so much."

  "It serves you right, who asked you to wrong me?"

  "I... I didn't mean it, I was just joking, how could you take it seriously? I, I was just playing a psychological hint game with you, not for real." Zhang Ziheng explained.

  "Really? That's good, I was just playing a game with you too."

  "Xue Er, don't think wildly, what I said is not true, I swear, I swear to the lamp." Zhang Ziheng said.

  "Hum, isn't that true? Are you taking me for a fool? Would you casually say something like that? I don't understand you, tell me, have you been doing immoral things with Bai Yujie behind my back?" Wang Xue said with reddening eyes.

  "No, absolutely not, Xue Er, I really didn't do anything with Yu Jie. If there's anything to say, it was that one time at Xu Jie's house... but you already know about it. Xue Er, don't be so impulsive, I really didn't do anything." What Zhang Zi Heng said was the truth, actually he said those words earlier because he was afraid he would do something in the future.

  Looking at Zhang Ziheng's appearance doesn't seem like he's lying, could it be that I've misunderstood him? Wang Xue didn't dare to confirm. "Are you telling the truth? What makes me believe you?"

  "Oh, Xue'er, how could I cheat on you? You know what? My parents even advised me to break up with you and get back together with Yu Jie, but I rejected it at the time. It's obvious that I wouldn't have anything to do with Yu Jie," Zhang Ziheng said.

  Hearing him say that, Wang Xue nodded and pouted her mouth, saying: "You still have a bit of conscience, how is it? Is your mouth still sore?"

  Zhang Ziheng licked the blood on his lips and thought to himself, "What's going on? Last time it was Xu Jie who bit me, this time it's Xue Er again. It seems like this mouth of mine is always getting into trouble." "I'm fine, it doesn't hurt that much anymore."

  Wang Xue bent down, stretched out her tongue and licked the blood on Zhang Ziheng's lips, and chuckled: "How is it? Is it better this time?"

  "Ah, I feel much better." Zhang Ziheng nodded and said.

  "Zi Heng, I love you." Wang Xue suddenly said very seriously.

  "Hmm? Hmm!"

  "Zi Heng, I love you, do you love me?" Wang Xue continued to ask.

  Zhang Ziheng was stunned, he didn't know how to respond. But did he really love Wang Xue or not? In fact, he didn't love her, he just liked Wang Xue, and hadn't reached the point of loving her. If he truly loved someone, it was Bai Yujie in the past, now he loves Xu Zong.

  Looking at Zhang Ziheng's silence, Wang Xue's face turned somewhat unpleasant. "What's with that expression? Speak up, do you love me or not?"

  "Hmm... hehe, why is it that you girls always like to ask this kind of question? It's boring, go to sleep, I'm sleepy." Zhang Ziheng said with a smile.

  "No way, I have to say it. And what did you mean by your words just now? What's with 'we girls'? Who asked?" Wang Xue shook her head and said.

  "Hehe, who else could it be? It's just Yu Jie. However... she asked me a long, long time ago, when I was still in college."

  "So how did you answer her?"

  "Uh... I forgot." Zhang Ziheng tried to gloss over it.

  "You forgot? You'd forget? Who are you kidding? How could anyone possibly forget something like that? Come on, what did you tell her?" Wang Xue asked relentlessly.

  "Ah... love?"

  "What about me? Do you love me?"

  "Aiya, Xue'er, you're saying this is so meaningless. We're young people now, what's the point of always talking about love or not?" Zhang Ziheng said as he turned over.

  "No, you have to say it. Do you love me or not?" Wang Xue turned him over and said.

  "You see, if I say love, you'll definitely ask again, what do you love about me? How am I supposed to answer that? If I say I just love you as a person, you'll say I'm being hypocritical. If I say I love your appearance and figure, you'll say I'm a pervert. This question is impossible for me to answer!" Zhang Ziheng laughed.

  Wang Xue shook her head and said: "No need, you just answer whether I love or not, don't ask anything else. Tell me, do you love me?"

  Looking at her, Zhang Ziheng wouldn't give up easily. He smiled slightly and nodded. But Wang Xue was not satisfied, "What's the point of nodding? I want you to say it out loud. Quick, say that you love me."

  "I love you."

  "No, it's just that I love you these three words, say it quickly."

  "Whatever, I'm done." Zhang Ziheng said casually, then turned over and pretended to sleep, even starting to snore.

  "What? I didn't quite catch that, say it again."

  "Ah...... I'm so sleepy, let's sleep, Xue Er. Tomorrow I'll take you out to play." With that, Zhang Ziheng was covered by the quilt and stopped talking.

  "You... no way, let me tell you, if you don't speak up today, don't even think about sleeping, hurry and say..."
