1292 Let’s Be Together
After Xiao Zhen and Zhi Tong left, the sound of an ambulance came from the silent night again…
The people who arrived were the few people who had tried to save Old Ji tonight. Regarding Old Ji’s suddenly recovered heart rhythm, the Ji family agreed that they did not know what had happened, but his heart rhythm suddenly recovered.
Although the doctor found it unbelievable, he had to believe it.
Old Ji was quickly sent to the hospital. It was a lively night. Jian Ai looked at the time. It was almost eleven in the evening.
“I’ll send you back.”
Ji Haoyu looked at Jian Ai and said those words.
When Jian Ai heard this, she looked at Ji Haoyu and smiled. “Aren’t you going to the hospital to look?”
Ji Haoyu immediately held Jian Ai’s hand and walked straight towards the car. “Second Uncle will follow. With him around, I can rest assured.”
Jian Ai glanced at their clasped hands and said nothing. She did not object to his suggestion. They were in the suburbs of Baiyun City, which was a distance from the city. If she wanted to go back by herself at this time, she could not get a taxi.
On the way back, Jian Ai leaned against the front passenger window and looked at the snow outside. The winter night was exceptionally quiet, with only the sound of a car engine.
Ji Haoyu focused on driving and said nothing, as if nothing had happened.
Jian Ai glanced at Ji Haoyu sideways and pursed her thin lips, but she didn’t know what to say.
Jian Ai naturally understood why the atmosphere had changed so subtly. Ji Haoyu must be curious about Xiao Zhen and Zhi Tong’s background and why she knew such capable people, but he asked nothing.
On the other hand, Jian Ai did not know how to answer him, especially that Xiao Zhen did not do this. But even if he did, how should she explain?
Tonight, she was just eager to save someone. There was no time for her to think about anything else.
Seeing Ji Haoyu’s sad expression, Jian Ai’s state of mind was very clear. She wanted to do her best to help him.
“Xiao Ai.”
At this moment, Ji Haoyu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke. His voice was gentle, unlike his usual tone.
Jian Ai subconsciously turned to look at him and answered, “Huh?”
Ji Haoyu did not look at Jian Ai but at the road in front of him. Feeling Jian Ai’s gaze on him, Ji Haoyu’s thin lips moved. Then, he said, “Let’s be together!”
When Jian Ai heard this, she was slightly stunned. The reason she had this reaction was not because of Ji Haoyu’s sudden confession, but because his words were exceptionally sincere and serious.
This was not the first time Ji Haoyu had confessed to her, but usually, he would say it in a cynical tone. At that time, the feeling in her heart was only half-truths.
However, when he said this just now, it was in a completely different context from before.
After being stunned, Jian Ai narrowed her eyes slightly and did not respond to Ji Haoyu. She said nothing or even had any expression.
Ji Haoyu said nothing else. The two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding and gave each other enough space in this sudden atmosphere.
However, this time, Jian Ai’s heart was surprisingly calm. Perhaps this had something to do with Ji Haoyu’s current attitude. He seemed to be telling the truth, so Jian Ai no longer felt that he was joking.
Jian Ai couldn’t help but think seriously.
What kind of feelings did she have for Ji Haoyu?
After knowing each other for so long, Ji Haoyu had dominated their relationship from the beginning. This was something Jian Ai admitted. This was because almost every time the two of them met, Ji Haoyu had made it happen single-handedly. She rarely took the initiative to look for him.
As time passed, she had completely adapted to Ji Haoyu’s initiative. Their relationship gradually became harmonious. Even after not seeing each other for a long time, she would occasionally think of him.
Did she like him?
Jian Ai was once uncertain, but after what had happened tonight, she seemed to understand.
She had feelings for Ji Haoyu. It was a feeling that she controlled or even blinded herself.
She was not a novice at relationships. In her previous life, she had a crush on Lin Yi for a few years. She knew what it was like to like someone.
However, Jian Ai also knew that she could not measure her feelings for Ji Haoyu with the feeling of liking Lin Yi back then because they were two completely different people.
That’s right, she was confused. The positioning of her relationship with Ji Haoyu had always confused her. Until today, she seemed to have belatedly sensed some of her heart.
The car drove all the way back to North City and slowly stopped at the entrance of the neighborhood.
Ji Haoyu turned to look at Jian Ai and revealed a faint smile. Just as he was about to say something, Jian Ai suddenly said, “I’ll consider it.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jian Ai’s face turned red. She quickly turned around to hide her embarrassment.
Ji Haoyu was slightly stunned. Then, surprise filled his face. “Really?”
Jian Ai nodded and exhaled softly. “Can I?”
“Of course!” Ji Haoyu agreed.
Xiao Ai said that she would consider it, which meant that she must like him in her heart. Otherwise, with his understanding of her, if she didn’t have feelings for him, she wouldn’t consider anything.
He had been secretly trying his best, but now, he finally received Jian Ai’s response. Although it was not the exact answer, Ji Haoyu was already satisfied.
Jian Ai pursed her lips, and her heart thumped non-stop. Then, she quickly opened the car door and ran into the neighborhood.
Ji Haoyu looked at Jian Ai’s back as she hurried away. The smile on his face deepened, and his eyes were filled with love.
Jian Ai ran to the unit door and stood there. Then, she patted her chest comfortingly. She thought little of it at first, but the moment she said that, her heart couldn’t help but beat faster.
That was true. The words ‘I’ll consider it’ were too meaningful, making it seem as if she was playing hard to get.
However, she was indeed serious. She would seriously consider if she should advance her relationship with Ji Haoyu.
Jian Ai didn’t go upstairs until she had calmed down.
In the living room, Si Yue was sitting on the sofa watching television. When he heard the door open, he couldn’t help but turn around. Seeing Jian Ai open the door and enter, Si Yue said, “Didn’t you go to a party?”
Jian Ai couldn’t help but sigh deeply. She still had lingering fear when she thought of what had happened tonight. “Something unexpected happened. The party ended before it started.”
“Coincidentally, I have something to ask you.”
