Shi Xiao never imagined that one day the tired old trope of a drunken confession would happen to her.
That day, Shi Xiao was tipsy, with a secret tucked away in her heart, itching like a kitten's claws. “I have a secret,” she told Xiao Huai.
“Hmm?” Xiao Huai looked at her in confusion.
In a rush of courage, Shi Xiao said, “Bend your head down a little.”
Looking at Shi Xiao's drunken, silly expression, Xiao Huai smiled and obediently bent down.
Shi Xiao stared at him, her face burning hot. “I... li...”
Before she could finish, Xiao Huai pulled her into his arms so quickly that her brain short-circuited.
“I know,” he said.
“Huh?” Shi Xiao was completely baffled. What did he know?
The next moment, Xiao Huai whispered in her ear, “I like you, Shi Xiao.” Then he added, “I have for a very, very long time.”
Shi Xiao's grin instantly stretched from ear to ear. Her heart burst with joy. “What a coincidence! I like you too!”
