Chapter 1343: You have always been my love, now or in the past.
“Pei Ge, I said: You are actually the girl who saved my life back then. You are actually the one… I’ve always placed in my heart—my first love…”
In response to that, Pei Ge had a dumbfounded look and appeared to have been scared silly by him. With her head tilted upward, she stared at him blankly.
After a pregnant pause and judging that he was not joking, she finally found her voice.
“Ziming, wh-what are you saying? I am the girl who saved you back then and… y-your first love?”
At this term, she was slightly speechless.
She clearly remembered him saying that Qiao Jingyun was his first love.
“You truly don’t remember it?”
Her lost expression made the man’s jaw tighten as he gently caressed her head.
While doing that, his eyes were filled with indecipherable conflict.
“What’s wrong?”
The woman could not really get used to him acting like this. She blinked her eyes, still feeling very confused by what he had just told her, not knowing how to respond to it.
I am Ji Ziming’s benefactor—his first love?
How… was that possible?
I truly don’t have any recollection of doing such…
Nonetheless, the man did not clarify his words and merely looked at her tenderly before—
“Hmm~”
He actually started humming a very upbeat and relaxing folk song.
Her eyes widened infinitely in surprise at this folk song, looking at him in disbelief.
Th-This song…
“Do you remember this song?”
He smiled at her lightly. He lay his palms gently on her cheeks and caressed them.
She quickly bobbed her head.
“Yes, I do! That’s the one my parents always sang for me before going to bed! H-How—” Come you know it?
Before she could finish asking the question, she suddenly recalled what he had said moments ago.
They had known each other since long ago… She had saved him. She… was his actual first love!
“Y-You… I-I…”
The woman was incoherent as she truly did not know what to say.
“Yes. You sang it to me.”
He dipped his head to look at her with a tender gaze. There was excitement and… deep-seated happiness in his eyes.
“Because you sang it for me… I’ve always remembered it…”
At this point, he suddenly understood it why… Qiao Jingyun claimed that her vocal cords were damaged beyond repair after she was saved.
Her timber was probably completely different from Pei Ge’s, and… she totally did not know how to sing that song at all. That was all just her excuse!
Hah! That woman has actually been vile and wicked since young!
I’ll definitely not let her off!
“Ziming, a-am I really the girl who saved you then and not Qiao Jingyun?”
She found all these to be unbelievable, for everything was just too coincidental!
“Yes, it’s you who saved me and whom I like—all have been you. It’s always been you all along, and there’s never anyone else.”
Be it when I was a teenager or an adult, the person I like has always been you. It has never changed.
