Love So Sweet

She is his little fairy.

He grew up with her kindness, separated, and later met her again only to receive more kindness from her. Gradually, he came to realize that he loved her.

Bai Qi liked her gentleness and liveliness.

With her around, time seemed as if it was short. He would forget all his troubles. Zhang Li Xue made him want to do his best and that he can be the best.

It might be his imagination, but Bai Qi had even thought that Zhang Li Xue might even have some magic.

Everything around him seemed to change for the better with her around.

With someone like her around, how can he not fall in love?

The only reason he was not brave enough to do anything was because he always thought that he was unworthy.

.....

His little fairy was so bright while he was someone who did not have anything with him.

Because of that, Bai Qi has been working hard. He wanted to improve his life just to be with this person that he adored. He was going to wait until his life turned better.

As a man, he had his pride in wanting to give the best to the person he love. He wanted to let her know that he was serious about her.

But Bai Qi did not expect that Zhang Li Xue would make the first move and tell him that she was chasing him.

It made him feel helpless.

His heart swelled with indescribable happiness. At the same time, his heart was aching. He had always thought that he was the one who was supposed to do the pursuing.

Bai Qi wanted to give her the best and let her experience the best.

He was supposed to let her experience the feeling of being pursued by him. But it seemed that he was the one who get to experience it.

It was now that Bai Qi understood why he always found that Zhang Li Xue was acting a little strange.

At this time, Zhang Li Xue felt as if everything around her had disappeared. The only one that left was Bai Qi. His face was the only thing that she could see and his breathing was the only thing that she could hear.

It turned out that Bai Qi liked her too.

She was not rejected, but instead, Bai Qi had said that he liked her too.

The realization made her stunned. Gradually, her cheek turned red.

Earlier, she was too heartbroken when she thought that Bai Qi was going to reject her. But now that something else had happened, Zhang Li Xue found that she was unable to react.

She did not know what she should do next.

Were they supposed to get together just like this?

They both liked each other. Then, getting together was what they were supposed to do, right?

“Then...” Zhang Li Xue’s voice trembled as she spoke. She was still anxious around Bai Qi. “Do you want to be with me?”

Bai Qi stared at his little fairy helplessly. He began to worry that if he was not quick enough, Zhang Li Xue would continue to steal all his roles away.

He also wanted to be together with her.

However, there was something else that he needed to tell her.

“Li Xue,” Bai Qi spoke again, snapping her out of her trance. “I am someone who might not be able to give you anything. I am not someone from the former Bai family.”

“I am not after your money or status,” Zhang Li Xue spoke quickly. Her brow furrowed. It was clear that she was displeased with his words.

A faint smile curled on his lips. He also knew that his little fairy was not someone like that.

“Because of my job, I may not be able to spend a lot of time accompanying you,” Bai Qi continued. “Will you still like someone like me? Will you still want to be with me?”

Zhang Li Xue pursed her lips.

In the beginning, she was a bit furious when she heard his words. But she had quickly composed herself and then, she understood why Bai Qi had told her all this.

He wanted to let her know what she will have to face if she still wanted to be with him.

“I know.” Zhang Li Xue said. “As a doctor, your priority will always be on your patients. But I have thought about this previously. Uncle Qi Zheng is also a doctor. When I was young, I have seen how my Auntie Yun would complain when he was not around the house to help her. ”

“Knowing and experiencing it are not the same. I don’t know much about Doctor Qi and his wife, but their condition is not the same as ours. You might regret it in the future.”

“But I still like you.” Zhang Li Xue said. There was a hint of stubbornness in her eyes. “I don’t know what will happen in the future. Perhaps, I might get tired of not having you around. Perhaps I might not. But still... I wanted to give it a try. I know that I won’t regret it. Bai Qi, I don’t want to regret missing out on someone good.”

Her words made Bai Qi stunned.

Bai Qi found that he may never win against Zhang Li Xue. Her insistence was also something that he liked about her.

Seeing that Bai Qi was quiet for a long time made Zhang Li Xue a little restless.

She wondered if he was still against the idea even after all that she had said.

Just when she wanted to speak and break the silence, Bai Qi had spoken again.

“Alright.”

Her heartbeat skipped a beat.

“Let’s give it a try.”

Her lips stretched out into a wide smile. Bai Qi thought that her smile was just like a flower blooming beautifully.

“Bai Qi, you can’t change your mind.”

“I won’t.”

Zhang Li Xue was too happy. She felt like leaping over to hug Bai Qi, but would that be appropriate?

Just in time, Bai Qi’s phone rang.

Because he was on duty, he could not ignore the call. While keeping his eyes on Zhang Li Xue, Bai Qi answered his phone. Then, his expression changed slightly.

The phone call ended shortly. Then, he looked at Zhang Li Xue and hesitated.

He had just told her about how he might not have time to accompany her, but Bai Qi did not think that it would happen too soon.

“Is that the hospital?” Zhang Li Xue guessed.

Bai Qi nodded. “Un. Something happened.”

“Then, you should go over and look.”

“Un.” He was reluctant to let her leave.

“I should go back first.” Zhang Li Xue motioned towards her car. “I will text you when I came home.”

Bai Qi finally smiled. Because he didn’t know whar he should do with her, Bai Qi stretched his hand and placed it softly on her head. “Alright. Remember to drive safely.”
