Chapter 229 Ji Yi, I’m Sorry (4)

Ji Yi, who just regained some of his thoughts, replied a little carelessly: "It's nothing..."

"Are you really okay? Why do I think there's something weird about you..." Tang Huahua continued with a concerned look on his face.

Ji Yi only listened to the previous words, and his thoughts drifted back to the five seconds when the wishing bell rang not long ago...

-

Outside a hotpot restaurant.

He Jichen stood outside the floor-to-ceiling window in the cold wind. Through the glass, he watched Ji Yi being pulled upstairs by Tang Huahua. After the figure completely disappeared, he reached out and took out the vibrating mobile phone in his pocket and took a look at the caller ID. , it was Han Zhihui who called him from the coffee shop upstairs not long ago to talk about business.

After answering the call, He Jichen didn't wait for Han Zhihui on the phone to urge him, and replied "We'll be there soon" before pressing the hang up button.

Raising his head, He Jichen glanced again at the place where Ji Yi's figure disappeared just now, and then his eyes jumped to the wishing clock not far away. He looked at it for only a second, then withdrew his eyes, turned around and walked towards the parking lot.

Starting the car, He Jichen drove the car skillfully and rushed towards the company where Han Zhi returned to work overtime.

About fifteen minutes after driving, he happened to catch a red light. He Jichen stepped on the brakes and stared at the dazzling red in front of him. His mind flashed back to the five seconds of darkness in the hot pot restaurant where he had just held Ji Yi down. The scene of kissing her.

Han Zhihui called him because he had something urgent to deal with at work.

After he settled the bill and was waiting for the front desk to issue the invoice, he heard someone not far away saying that the hot pot restaurant would ring the wishing bell later.

He has heard some legends about the wishing bell of this hot pot restaurant, but he has never believed in ghosts and gods. He thinks that the wishing bell is a special marketing method of the hot pot restaurant. But tonight, he happened to catch the wishing bell ringing. , when the lady at the front desk handed over the invoice, she couldn't help but asked casually: "Is the wishing bell really that effective?"

Really when the wishing bell rings, kiss the person you like and confess your love to her, will you one day come together?

The lady at the front desk didn't have time to answer his question. The landlady who was standing aside sorting out the tarot cards raised her head and smiled at him and said, "Sincerity leads to success."

He said nothing, nodded to the proprietress, and left the restaurant.

When he walked out the door, he stopped and turned around. When he looked back into the hot pot restaurant, he saw Ji Yi walking down from the second floor and stopping in front of the wishing bell.

He hesitated for a few seconds, and finally turned back to the hot pot restaurant.

Because everyone gathered in front of the wishing bell, he appeared very low-key, and no one noticed him.

He had always paid attention to her figure, and the moment the lights went out, he stood beside her accurately.

He remembered the words of the landlady, "Sincerity leads to success", he held her hand solemnly, pulled her in front of him, and kissed her lips.

He was like a primary school student, carefully following the steps in front of the wishing bell, step by step. After kissing her, he leaned close to her ear. He was afraid that she would recognize him, so he deliberately made a sound with his breath. .

He said the words he wanted to say to her when he was young, when he gave her countless favors without hesitation on campus, like a vow, word for word, and said it seriously.

In fact, there was half a sentence after that sentence. He didn't say it out loud, but completed it in his heart.

In complete words, it goes like this: Actually, I'm really not bad. Why don't you try to like me and stop hating me so much?
