The Long-awaited Mr Han

"Didn't you also give me a jade pendant?" Han Zhuofeng pulled the jade pendant out from under the shirt collar. "I'm even less worried. Even if we encountered something in the future, I won't drag you down."

"I will behave myself and hide in a corner. If it comes after me, the jade pendant will protect me. You don't have to lose focus for the sake of protecting me."

Han Zhuofeng had thought it through. "In addition, if we are together and the energy in the jade pendant was exhausted, you will notice it immediately and give me a new one. That's really convenient."

Xie Jiling was speechless.

How come he already planned what things would be like when they got together?

She hadn't even agreed.

And he had already started thinking about their future?

"Well, I was just saying. I have seen it before, and I have experienced it," Han Zhuofeng said, "I'm not the kind of person who would say that he doesn't mind it when he doesn't know anything about it."

"And when he finally experienced it, he will feel regretful and realize that it was not what he had expected," Han Zhuofeng said, "I know what I would face if I get into a relationship with you."

Han Zhuofeng stared at Xie Jiling's face, refusing to miss out on any reaction on Xie Jiling's face.

However, Xie Jiling just looked dumbfounded with her eyes wide open and her mouth agape.

He couldn't really read any other emotions on her face.

Han Zhuofeng was really nervous. He started sweating even though it was cold.

"Do… do you want to consider me?" Han Zhuofeng said, "I have a really good character. I will keep my promise. My family doesn't allow me to lie to girls and be disloyal."

"Since young, my family has taught me not to make promises easily. if I do make any promises, I have to make sure to stay true to my word."

"Therefore, don't worry. If I break any promises, you don't even have to punish me. My family, including my two elder brothers, will not let me off the hook," Han Zhuofeng said.

"Maybe what I told you tonight is too sudden, so you're having a hard time thinking it through." Han Zhuofeng felt like he couldn't breathe well. He felt like he was suffocating.

He opened his mouth and inhaled and exhaled a couple of times deeply. While Xie Jiling was still staring at him, he scratched his head in an embarrassed manner and said, "I… I'm too nervous."

With this, he took several deep breaths and said, "You don't have to answer me so quickly. I know I told you this suddenly, and you haven't had enough time to react and think about this."

"So it's okay. Go back and think about it. Is one night enough time for you? I will ask you tomorrow morning." Han Zhuofeng thought about it and said, "If you still don't have an answer tomorrow morning, then I will ask you again at noon tomorrow."

Xie Jiling was speechless.

Why did it sound so urgent?

"What if I still haven't figured it out at noon tomorrow?"

Of course, she didn't actually have to think about it.

However, Xie Jiling was just really curious that she had to ask.

Han Zhuofeng said without much thought, "If you haven't figured it out by noon tomorrow, I will ask you again tomorrow night."

Xie Jiling was speechless.

Was Han Zhuofeng following the schedule of three meals a day?

"Of course. But you better not think about that person while you're thinking about what I just said to you," Han Zhuofeng instructed, "You're the type to easily get distracted."

"In addition, he doesn't even know that you like him, so don't think about him. Don't put him in a difficult position." Han Zhuofeng revealed a really kind look. He was giving the vibe of a harmless flower.

Xie Jiling suddenly thought that Han Zhuofeng could totally act like one of those pretentious and self-righteous girls.

"But he doesn't know about your job, and he most likely has never seen such dangerous things before." Han Zhuofeng didn't hesitate to criticize his apparent rival by basically hinting that the latter was just a pretty boy.

Han Zhuofeng then realized that he should still maintain his reputation in front of Xie Jiling.

"Since he doesn't know, you shouldn't tell him. It wouldn't be good to scare him," Han Zhuofeng said in a very considerate way.

"If you do that, you would have to spend a lot of effort explaining things to him. I don't think you are someone who would like to share what you do for a living as well, especially in such detail," Han Zhuofeng said.

Xie Jiling was speechless.

It was impossible for her not to think about the guy she liked.

Han Zhuofeng finally revealed his true intention as he said, "Just focus on thinking about me."

Even though it was nighttime, the blush on Xie Jiling's face could clearly be seen.

Han Zhuofeng waited for a long time, but he still didn't hear any reply from Xie Jiling, so he started to feel really nervous.

"Then… I won't urge you to give me an answer." He looked at Xie Jiling carefully. "But don't let me wait for too long. I will ask you three times a day. If you think that's annoying, just tell me, and I will reduce the number of times by once."

"But you mustn't reject me immediately because you think I'm annoying. I won't annoy you," Han Zhuofeng added.

Xie Jiling had never seen Han Zhuofeng like this.

When she first met Han Zhuofeng, she thought he was a very confident and cheerful guy.

He seemed like the type that would do anything with confidence.

When she was at the film set, she had seen him do his work.

Whenever he was overseeing the filming of the movie, he would look very confident.

He knew what he wanted to communicate to the audience, and he would tell the cast members about it in a very vivid manner, then he would have them redo the scene again and again until the scene he had imagined was created.

He didn't feel self-conscious because he was a rookie.

He wasn't scared that the cast members might find him annoying to work with.

There were many veteran actors on set.

However, Han Zhuofeng always appeared confident. He tried to look confident so that the cast members would listen to him.

So those cast members wouldn't look down on him and take the lead because they think he was a greenhorn.

But right now, he looked very nervous.

He was constantly trying to test the waters.

Even though Xie Jiling had no boyfriend since birth, she could tell that Han Zhuofeng cared a lot about her.

Because Han Zhuofeng was taking this so seriously, Xie Jiling felt more confident.

"Alright." Xie Jiling nodded.

Han Zhuofeng's eyes lit up as he asked happily, "Did you agree?"

"I agree," Xie Jiling said.

"Really? You agree to be my girlfriend?!" Han Zhuofeng almost jumped out of happiness.

"No." Xie Jiling hurriedly said.

Obviously, there was a misunderstanding.

The smile on Han Zhuofeng slowly disappeared as he said disappointingly, "Then, what do you mean?"

"I promise you that I will go back and think about it," Xie Jiling said.

She believed in Han Zhuofeng.

And she believed his character…

Han Zhuofeng was being reasonable.

He had seen everything.

He didn't run away back then, which meant that he wouldn't retreat in the future.

In addition, Xie Jiling believed in the Han Family's teachings.

But right now, she had to confirm her feelings.

She had feelings for Han Zhuofeng.

She had to make sure that she was willing to drag her into this world.

Xie Jiling thought that it would be too selfish of her to drag him into this world solely because she had feelings for him.
