Chapter 631: Give Me a Chance

Ye Qingbai looked at her, not giving her a chance to escape, and asked, "Just tell me, what do you think of me?"

"You're very good," Shen Qian said, her eyes darting away.

"Which one is better? Is he qualified to be your boyfriend?"

At this point, he showed no sign of backing down and continued to press, "I want to hear the truth. Do you think I'm qualified to be your boyfriend?"

"Do you have those feelings for me, like... the kind of feelings between a man and a woman?"

Ye Qingbai bombarded Shen Qian with questions, making her blush. She wanted to escape, but Ye Qingbai's tall figure blocked her way, giving her no chance to get away. His closeness, even the warmth of his breath on her face, made her feel incredibly uncomfortable.

"How would I know if you're suitable to be my boyfriend?" She had never been so timid in front of a man before.

At this moment, he had truly driven her to the point where her mind stopped thinking.

This man is such a charmer.

"Then give me a chance, give me a chance to prove myself, okay?"

Ye Qingbai received some positive feedback from Shen Qian's reaction.

He felt that she didn't seem to be very averse to him.

This gave him a lot of encouragement.

“I understand your concerns. You are unsure of my sincerity and afraid that I am deceiving you and causing you harm.”

Ye Qingbai stood in front of her, looking at her sincerely, and once again expressed his feelings to her, "Xiaoqian, I want to express my feelings to you again. I truly like you. During the time we've spent together, I think you are a very outstanding and independent girl. Every time I see you, I always become very happy. When I go back to bed at night, my mind is full of your image. Every glance and smile of yours will appear in my dreams."

"We haven't known each other for long, so you might not have such strong feelings for me, but that's okay, we can get along."

Even if we spend some time together and you feel it's not right, we can still be friends. Relationships don't require too much overthinking; we should both follow our feelings. If we hesitate and overthink, it might end in regret.

He looked at her and said, "I don't want to have any regrets in my life, and I believe you don't either."

"Dr. Shen, are you really that cowardly? You don't even have the courage to take a step forward?"

Ye Qingbai's mocking and disdainful words seemed to have provoked Shen Qian.

Who's the coward?

Of course, she wasn't provoked by Ye Qingbai's goading; rather, she agreed with what he had just said.

Of course, she didn't want to leave herself with any regrets.

There are too many regrets from the past.

Now, she wants to seize the happiness that belongs to her.

Moreover, there's also the pressure from family.

Only when she finds a partner and gets out of being single will her stepfather give up.

So, she looked at Ye Qingbai defiantly and said, "Let's give it a try. If we don't get along, we'll call it a day."

Ye Qingbai suddenly grabbed her hand and placed it on his heart. He looked at her with deep affection and slowly said, "I won't give you that chance."

He would treat her well as long as she agreed to be with him.

He will definitely keep her by his side.

How could they break up just because they didn't get along?

Shen Qian's hand was being held so intimately by her and placed on his chest. Shen Qian blushed with shame and struggled to pull her hand back.

In broad daylight, right at the entrance of the residential compound, this person is simply outrageous.

"What's there to be afraid of? We're just dating normally, no one will gossip."

His superiors would only feel gratified to see him no longer single.

Shen Qian forcefully pulled her hand back, glared at him, and quickly walked ahead.

Ye Qingbai smiled indulgently and followed.

He walked alongside her, his hand itching to take hers, but she avoided it.

Shen Qian pretended to be serious, "We're just getting to know each other temporarily, we haven't officially defined our relationship yet, please understand this and don't cross the line."

"Oh." Ye Qingbai pursed his lips and quickly withdrew his hand.

He kept telling himself, "Don't be impatient, you absolutely mustn't be impatient."

Haste makes waste; if you cross the line, you'll be beaten up like a hooligan.

Regardless, he was very happy at that moment.

He wanted to shout to the whole world that he was no longer single.

"By the way, when we go inside, don't say anything out of line in front of Bai Zhi and Lu Ye. I don't want them to know for now."

Upon hearing Shen Qian's words, Ye Qingbai's handsome face instantly fell. "Why?"

Bai Zhi and Lu Ye are his closest family members, and they are also concerned about his romantic relationships.

Now that we have good news, why can't we share it with them?

"Can you agree?" Shen Qian's imposing aura made Ye Qingbai feel somewhat overwhelmed, so he had no choice but to agree.

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

Ye Qingbai agreed, and Shen Qian's cold expression softened a bit.

Their pace slowed down a bit.

The two strolled into the family compound.

Just as Bai Zhi and Lu Ye finished cooking, the door opened.

"Oh, you've arrived?"

Bai Zhi, wearing an apron, greeted Ye Qingbai and Shen Qian with a smile when they entered, subtly observing their expressions and the atmosphere between them.

Shen Qian said, "Xiao Zhi, I'm sorry to have troubled you again."

"Look at you, why are you being so polite with us?"

Bai Zhi warmly welcomed them, saying, "Go wash your hands and wait for dinner."

Bai Zhi went back into the kitchen. Lu Ye was serving rice when he heard Ye Qingbai and Shen Qian come in together. He asked Bai Zhi in a low voice, "How is it?"

"The atmosphere seems quite harmonious," Bai Zhi said. "Let's pretend we don't know anything and not make Chen Qian shy."

The food was served and the four of them sat down. At first, Shen Qian felt quite uncomfortable.

She was afraid that Lu Ye and Bai Zhi would tease her about her relationship with Ye Qingbai, or keep trying to match them up, making them feel awkward.

To her relief, neither of them mentioned it at all.

I kept talking to them about other things.

Bai Zhi devoted all her energy to her traditional Chinese medicine clinic.

Then we talked about things at Nancheng's family.

I learned from their casual conversation that Xie Zheng's band had performed on television and received a very strong response.

The newspapers published extensive coverage of the story.

The records have already been successfully released, and the records sent to them are on their way.

Shen Qian found that she was no longer as excited as before when she heard news about Xie Zheng.

She felt very calm, with no other emotions except for being happy for him.

On the contrary, every word spoken by the man sitting next to her would attract her attention.

Especially when Ye Qingbai and Bai Zhi talked about their families, Shen Qian slowed down her eating and listened attentively.

She already knew that Ye Qingbai's family background was similar to hers; both were blended families.

The only difference is that Ye Qingbai's parents are divorced, and his mother lives abroad.

At this moment, when Ye Qingbai mentioned his family of origin, he subconsciously glanced at Shen Qian.

He was afraid that she would mind his family structure.

Especially his biological mother, who is said to be returning to China.

This made Ye Qingbai even more distressed.

The main problem is that he doesn't know how to get along with his biological mother.

They hadn't seen each other for so many years; to put it bluntly, they were strangers.
