My Mr. Gu is Courting Death Again - Chapter 714

Chapter 714: Clearly Saw Himself Become Increasingly Invested (2) “Ahem ahem ahem…” Xu Weilai coughed violently.

Zuo An’s brows knitted into a frown as he asked worriedly, “Are you alright?” He rose to his feet as he spoke and made his way over to Xu Weilai.

Xu Weilai quickly raised her hands and waved at him to stop him before she assured, “I’m fine… Ahem.

I’m fine, I’m fine.

” She then swallowed her saliva with some difficulty and patted her chest gently.

She took in two deep breaths of air when she finally recovered, but her face remained flushed.

Zuo An couldn’t tell if it was because of her coughing or because of what he had said.

Leaning back into his chair, he stared at Xu Weilai fervently with his jet black eyes and when he noticed that her complexion had returned to normal, apologised and said, “I’m sorry for giving you a shock.

But even so, I’d still choose to say what I’ve said earlier on.

” “Big Boss…” After thinking through her choice of words, Xu Weilai asked, “Why did you suddenly develop feelings towards me? Although we’ve known each other for quite a long time, we’ve only met each other in person for a few months.

You…” “Xu Weilai.

” Zuo An suddenly called out her full name and interrupted her.

“Did you think that there’s nothing about you that is charming?” .

“…” Xu Weilai was at a loss for words, for if she were to disagree, she would appear to be too narcissistic.

Yet if she were to agree with him, she would be underestimating herself too much.

She never lacked suitors throughout her growing years but because of her obsession with Gu Yu, she had never considered any of the guys who flocked around her.

As she would doubt herself whenever Gu Yu gave her a sense of defeat, it was even unlikelier for her to have the ability to identify if she possessed any attractive qualities.

After a moment of silence, Xu Weilai asked, “When did it begin?” Continue_reading on MYB0X N0V EL.

COM “I don’t know when it started either.

” Zuo An then lowered his voice a little and elaborated slowly, “I didn’t realize it at first.

But when rumors about us began to spread like wildfire in the company, I felt a sense of joy from the bottom of my heart and my first reaction was never to clear things up.

It was at that moment when I realized that I might have developed a special feeling towards you.

” “Thinking further about this, I wondered if it started from the moment when you saved me or if it was when we first met abroad.

It might have even begun way earlier… I couldn’t pinpoint a specific time, but one thing’s for sure—you hold a special place in my heart.

” All of a sudden, Qiao Chu’s reminder flashed across Zuo An’s mind.

Back then, he had brushed Qiao Chu off and replied that he knew how to handle the situation, but in reality, he could clearly see himself become increasingly invested in Xu Weilai.

Xu Weilai agreed with his explanation.

If Zuo An had managed to identify the exact moment when he had fallen for her, she wouldn’t be convinced that his feelings were genuine.

Instead, based on how he had just explained his feelings to her, she could tell that he was sincere.

Emotions were the hardest to fathom.

Often, one might fail to notice it even though it resides in one’s heart and when one finally picks up on it, it had already taken roots.

“I’m telling you this because I want you to know that I’m serious.

But if…you are burdened by my feelings for you, then you could forget everything that I’ve said.

” Zuo An gazed intently at Xu Weilai as he emphasized his words seriously, “But if…you aren’t terribly against the idea or if there’s a remote possibility that you could even accept my feelings, then could I ask if I…could hang out with you as a man instead of your superior?” “To hang out with me as a man?” Xu Weilai thought.

What Zuo An had said was as good as an indirect confession.

Xu Weilai subconsciously tightened her grip around the cup on the table and her gaze flickered.
