Tan Bengbeng turned her head to look at Qi Yan who looked like a wronged little wife who was about to cry. After thinking for a few seconds, she spoke seriously.
“Brother, you don’t have to buy a dog. I like Qi Yan. I want to be with him.”
A simple sentence stunned the two people in the room at the same time.
Tan Bengbeng did not notice their shocked expressions and continued to speak.
“I have never liked anyone in the past. I don’t know what it feels like to like someone. I am used to protecting Xiao Mumu. I used to think that I would spend my entire life like this. However, ever since I met Qi Yan, I realized that I could lead such a colorful life according to my own wishes. He was the one who made me realize that I could lead a different life apart from protecting Xiao Mumu.”
Tan Bengbeng paused for a moment, and ripples appeared in her calm eyes.
“I used to hate him a lot. He was overbearing, did whatever he wanted, did whatever he liked, and even liked to threaten me…”
The scenes from when she met Qi Yan appeared in Tan Bengbeng’s mind.
From the very beginning, she had barged into his world.
The first time they met, she had plundered him, and then she had teased him.
Qi Yan’s style of doing things was completely unfathomable. She only felt that he was unfathomable.
She had always reminded herself that he was too dangerous. Such a person was destined to be in a different world from her.
They were not suitable.
However, Qi Yan was really different from her. What he wanted, he had racked his brains and pestered him relentlessly to get it.
It was not that she had never been bored of it.
All she wanted was to escape from his side, treating him like a flood or a fierce beast.
But she didn’t know when it started, but she actually started to gradually get used to having him by her side.
Just being apart for a while, she became unaccustomed, unconsciously wanting to look for his figure..
She didn’t know if this was love.
But she could feel that she must have liked Qi Yan a little.
She liked to see him being a ruffian and not being serious.
She liked that he was not afraid of anything tomorrow, but he deliberately pretended to be pitiful in front of her to gain sympathy.
Sometimes, it was not that she did not see it, but she just did not know how to reject him.
It was as if as long as it was him, no matter what he did, it was reasonable.
Just like when she first knew that she was pregnant, she originally thought that she would very much resist that child. But as long as she thought that there would be a milk doll that looked exactly like Qi Yan, she could not help but look forward to it.
When she knew that the child was not there, although she was used to suppressing her emotions, her heart still felt uncomfortable for a very, very long time.
Until now, whenever she saw a child, she would fantasize that if their child was still there, they would be born more like Qi Yan or more like her..
It was better to be more like him.
Although his temper and personality were not good, the child would look better like him.
A mini version of Qi Yan.
Tan Bengbeng’s eyes revealed a gentle light, and her tone became firm.
“Brother, I know you’re doing this for my own good, but when it comes to relationships, there’s never any logic to it. I know that Qi Yan has ten thousand flaws in your heart, and I know that you’re worried that I’ll be at a disadvantage. But just like how you can silently like sister-in-law and have liked her for so many years, I probably… Don’t just like Qi Yan.”
Maybe she already loved him.
But she was too emotionally retarded to realize that if she really didn’t like him, she wouldn’t have tolerated a person pestering her for so long.
