Ji Silin remained remarkably honest: "Ever since I found out I liked you, I've been heartbroken. How could we have agreed on a three-month deadline? How could we possibly agree on another one?"

"Haha, I love the way you tell the truth!" Meng Mian was genuinely happy.

If they weren't wearing helmets and face shields, making it difficult to kiss, she definitely would have already done so.

Ji Silin's ear tips turned even redder.

Even though he is honest, he can't be as enthusiastic as she is.

And he liked her just the way she was.

"Back then, did you think that only money could keep me from breaking up? So you gave me money and assets?" Meng Mian raised her eyebrows.

In Ji Silin's opinion, she looks even cuter and more playful.

He certainly liked her the way she was.

Ji Silin spoke frankly as always: "That's part of it. But more than that, I want to treat you better in every way, so that you'll like me."

"So you were actually pursuing me back then?" Meng Mian was a little surprised.

"Yeah, I've been pursuing you ever since I found out I like you."

Meng Mian was even more surprised.

But thinking about it carefully, it's true that he started treating her even better from the day he realized he liked her.

This is getting more and more outrageous.

Meng Mian's face lit up with a smile: "Although I'm very happy, I have to say, I really didn't realize you were pursuing me."

Otherwise, she wouldn't have only realized today that he actually liked her.

Upon hearing this, Ji Silin questioned his existence for the first time. "I didn't see it at all?"

"Do you want me to tell the truth?"

"Um."

"Maybe you were too good to me before, and I just felt that you were even better to me, even ridiculously so. I really didn't feel that you were pursuing me."

Ji Silin remained silent for several seconds before finally speaking: "Then what my grandfather said won't work either."

Meng Mian chuckled, "What does this have to do with Grandpa Ji?"

"I was thinking that he once said that if you like someone, you should do your best to be good to her. He said that's how he won over my grandma back then, so that's why I'm pursuing you in the same way."

"Haha." Meng Mian almost died laughing. "But shouldn't you think it works? I've fallen for you now, haven't I? It's mainly because you're so good to me that I fell for you."

Ji Silin thought about it and agreed.

That way, his grandfather wasn't wronged.

But Meng Mian still laughed several more times.

Perhaps Ji Silin is a bit clueless when it comes to relationships, but she likes Ji Silin just the way he is!

I think it's so cute!

Then Meng Mian said, "Actually, I've been pursuing you too, just these past two days. Didn't you say that I've been too obvious these past two days, and that you could feel that I like you?"

"Are you pursuing me?" Ji Silin was also taken aback.

She was very happy and affectionate with him these past two days, which made him realize that she liked him.

But he really didn't think about pursuing him.

"Haha, look, you didn't even notice!" Meng Mian laughed even harder.

Perhaps Meng Mian didn't realize he was pursuing her either, because Ji Silin wasn't embarrassed at the moment.

A smile returned to his eyes.

"But I'm much luckier than you," Meng Mian said cheerfully. "I caught up with you after only two days, while you chased me for so long."

Then, Meng Mian asked, "Is there anything you want to ask me?"

He's so smart, she felt he must have a lot to ask her.

Sure enough, Ji Silin nodded seriously and said, "Yes."

"Then ask away!" Meng Mian immediately smiled.

Waiting for him to ask.

She asked so many questions, now it's his turn to ask.

Ji Silin hesitated slightly before speaking: "I won't ask any more questions, and you don't need to say anything more. I just have one question I'd like you to answer: yes or no."

Meng Mian vaguely knew what he wanted to ask.

Something just didn't feel right.

But she still smiled sweetly and said softly, "Mmm."

He was really too good to her. He knew she had many secrets, but he didn't ask her to say anything more, and he still didn't ask too many questions.

Ji Silin then asked:

"Was it because you thought I would fall for Ding Ran that you didn't show it so obviously, or even that you didn't think I liked you?"

She just said it herself, and she just confirmed it at the rest stop that he liked her.

She just said that she has actually been pursuing him these past two days.

These two points clearly demonstrate that she didn't believe he liked her before.

She herself just said that she realized she liked him two days later than him.

But if you realized you liked him so early on, why did you only start showing it so obviously these past two days, and even seem to be pursuing him?

Is this the main reason why it's not explicitly stated?

It just suddenly became so obvious on Thursday.

Although he was already certain in his heart, he still wanted to hear her answer in person.

As for why it's the main reason, his previous statements must have played a part in it.

Meng Mian thought to herself, "Just as I expected."

He immediately nodded his little head, "Yes!"

Ji Silin didn't ask her why she knew about Ding Ran so early on.

Ding Ran hadn't returned to China yet at that time, right?

Naturally, she didn't ask why she thought he would fall in love with Ding Ran so early on.

It was as if she knew what the future held.

But if she really knew what the future held, why didn't he fall in love with Ding Ran?

But if she didn't know the future, why would she know about Ding Ran, and why would she be so certain that he would fall in love with Ding Ran, and only after confirming that he had no feelings for Ding Ran and didn't like her at all, would she feel completely at ease and start pursuing him?

There are too many questions.

But Ji Silin didn't ask any more questions, only saying, "Then I have no problem."

"Ji Silin, you're so nice!" Meng Mian happily hugged his neck immediately, hanging her whole body on him.

Ji Silin cooperated by holding her tightly to prevent her from feeling uncomfortable hanging like that.

He even cooperated by carrying her and spinning her around twice in the snow.

Meng Mian couldn't suppress the corners of her mouth; they were turned up high.

She happily exclaimed, "Everything I said before was true! I really think you're the best in the world, the most wonderful person, and I love you the most!"

He paused, then added, "It's not just the kind of liking that comes with the God of Wealth."

The next second, she became a little more serious:

"Actually, after I got drunk that time, when I woke up the next day, I could tell that you didn't take my words 'I love my God of Wealth the most' to heart at all. I knew that you thought I was praising you, just like praising you as the best in the world."

"But I thought you didn't like me, and... I thought you would fall for someone else."

"Anyway, I didn't think there was anything wrong with you thinking that way."

Ji Silin's heart ached upon hearing this.

He placed her on the ground, stood her upright, and pressed his helmet against hers, looking her straight in the eye.

"You must be very sad, having been like this for so long."

From the day she realized she liked him until last Thursday, when she was certain he didn't like Ding Ran at all, so many days had passed.

She must be very sad when she thinks about these things.

Meng Mian was also honest:

"Of course I'm sad, I like you so much. If I weren't sad at all, wouldn't I not like you?"
