I go north, you go south

Or maybe, both times.

Precisely because he almost lost the first time, even if the second time was extremely safe, he could not accept that such a thing would happen again.

"I was wrong."

Nan Zishu didn't say anything, but whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I really know I was wrong. Ah Bei, please forgive me, okay?"

Ling Bei stiffened: "What did you call me?"

"Abei." Nan Zishu suddenly smiled like a flower.

Who knows how many years Ling Bei has been waiting for Nan Zishu to call him this name.

From childhood to adulthood, the elders in the family would call Ling Bei "Xiao Bei".And only some friends who are similar to his age will call him "Abei".

But because his personality became more and more alienated after he grew up, there were fewer and fewer close friends with him, and almost no one called him this kind of slightly intimate name anymore.

Later, even fewer people called him by his first name directly.They are all "Mr. Ling".

For other people, Ling Bei naturally doesn't care about these things, or in other words, if someone really casually calls him some too kind names, he will feel very concerned.

But no one knew that since the first time he saw Nan Zishu, he had inexplicably yearned for him from the bottom of his heart.He hoped that this title, which had been dusty for many years, could become her exclusive.

It is in these tiny details that Ling Bei reveals his secret wish to be close to Nan Zishu.

Growing up, no girl would ever call him that.He hoped that Nan Zishu could be the first girl with such a close relationship, and he also hoped that she could be the only one.

For this wish, Ling Bei chose to wait.Before her, he had kept this title in the dust for an infinite time.But I didn't expect that there would be a day when my wish would come true.

It's not like Ling Bei never thought of letting Nan Zishu call him this before.It's just that he thinks that Nan Zishu has never liked girls who are greasy, and it's okay to make small requests occasionally, but if he insists on asking her for a title, Ling Bei is always worried that she will think that he is a bit domineering or too fussy.

So he thought about it a few times but didn't figure out how to tell her the request of "changing her name".In the end, he figured it out. He felt that Nan Zishu was by his side now. Anyway, the days to come were still long, so take your time. Maybe there would be a suitable opportunity to bring up this topic at some point.

After all, as long as they are always together, Ling Bei's wish has been fulfilled.He can wait for her for such a long time, how can he be impatient for other things after being together?

A lifetime is so long, everything else will eventually come true.

You see, the surprise just appeared unexpectedly.

Seeing that Ling Bei didn't move for a long time, just hugging himself tightly, Nan Zishu was a little at a loss for a while.

"I... can't I call you that?" She asked him softly, a little nervously.

"No, you can."

Almost as soon as Nan Zishu finished speaking, Ling Bei immediately rejected it.

He only heard his trembling promise: "From now on, only you can call me this name."

"You'll call me this from now on, okay?"

Again, this tone is similar to "coaxing".

Ling Bei seemed to know that Nan Zishu couldn't refuse his tone.

But this time she was probably willing.

"Okay." She responded briskly.

Nan Zishu paused and suddenly said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Only I can." (End of Chapter)
