She stared at Shi Che's profile as the car slowly moved along. The streetlights outside slanted through the window, casting his face in fleeting shadows and light, stirring an impulse in her heart to ask him right then and there what he truly felt about her.
Was he really always seeing her as just a substitute for his elder sister, or did he see her as Ling Chuxia?
He had been so cruel to her before, yet now he was so kind; what was it all for?
She opened her mouth, involuntarily calling out, "Young Master..."
But the words were on the tip of her tongue when she suddenly stopped. If she asked now and Shi Che's answer was negative, then how could she ever muster the courage to confess her feelings to him?
If from the beginning to the end he loved only her elder sister, wouldn't she lose even the chance to express her feelings? Although, she dared not hope too much that he would reciprocate, she didn't want to be deprived of the opportunity to confess.
