Chapter 2466: Let’s Try

An Rui watched Zhou Li’s back disappear from the apartment opposite. She gritted her teeth, threw off her high heels, and went into the living room to fall on the sofa.

Facing Zhou Li, she felt a sense of helplessness.

He had a completely different personality from Shen Mingxiu. If she had spoken in that tone just now, she and Shen Mingxiu would probably be arguing until sparks flew in the air!

However, no matter how unreasonable she was, Zhou Li did not seem to care about her.

Was he like this to every girl?

An Rui hugged her head in frustration and rubbed her hair.

After about ten minutes, an undeniable fragrance of instant noodles wafted into her nose.

Zhou Li came over with the cooked instant noodles.

An Rui pretended not to see it and lay on the sofa, looking out of the French windows.

Zhou Li said, “The noodles are ready.”

“No.”

“I put my own braised beef slices.”

An Rui glanced at it and swallowed unconsciously.

“Doctor Zhou, although I’m still a nobody in the entertainment industry, I have to maintain my figure at all times. Don’t harm me.”

Zhou Li looked at An Rui’s awkward expression and said nothing. He squatted by the coffee table and lowered his head to eat his bowl.

Looking at him eating happily, An Rui kicked him. “Go back and eat.”

He ignored her.

“I told you to go back and eat.” She kicked him a few more times and suddenly, her slender and fair feet were grabbed by a slender hand.

His fingers were warm and slightly calloused. The moment they were wrapped by his palm, An Rui felt a numbness spreading from her feet to her limbs.

An Rui tried to pull her leg back, but could not.

She glared at Zhou Li. “What are you doing?”

Zhou Li had already put down his chopsticks and looked at her with his dark eyes.

He did not know if it was because of the hot instant noodles, but his eyes were a little red.

An Rui cleared her throat. “I kicked you twice. Are you going to hit me again?”

To be honest, his gaze now was a little scary.

Zhou Li pursed his lips and his Adam’s apple bobbed. He looked at An Rui and said in a low voice, “An Rui, I’m an adult man.”

An Rui was a little dazed.

What did he mean?

She did not know that he was an adult man. Was he still a high school teenager?

An Rui was about to say something when she suddenly thought of something and her fair ears that were covered by her long hair felt hot.

“I’m not saying that you’re not.” She pulled her foot back from his palm forcefully, but did not retract it immediately. Her fair and slender toes tapped his leg.

Zhou Li looked at An Rui again.

An Rui met his gaze. “Did I do something bad to you last night?”

They had both avoided this topic at first, but now, they had no choice but to talk about it.

Zhou Li lowered his eyes. “I know you were drunk last night.”

Drunk?

An Rui got up from the sofa and squatted in front of him.

Feeling her approach, Zhou Li looked at her.

But before she could see clearly, her vision darkened.

She bit the corner of his lips.

Their noses were almost touching, their breaths intertwining with each other.

Zhou Li looked at the girl close to him and his body froze like a statue.

He could clearly feel that the persistence that was about to collapse last night had collapsed!

All of her selfishness and greed appeared clearly at this moment.

He did not want to be tied down anymore. There was only one thought in his mind. He did not want to keep his promise to Shen Mingxiu!

He wanted to fight for this girl who had been hidden in his heart for eight years!

An Rui did not know what was going on. Seeing that his reaction was the same as last night, she was furious.

She had taken the initiative once or twice, but he still looked like he had been struck by lightning. Her dignity had really suffered a blow!

An Rui got up and walked toward the bedroom.

“Zhou Li, if you hate me, I’ll move out of here tomorrow!” An Rui felt a lump in her throat and tears gathered in her eyes. She felt an indescribable grievance and sadness. “You don’t have to be troubled. I was indeed unkind in this matter and broke the pure balance between us.”

“If you don’t want to see me in the future, I’ll try not to appear in front of you.”

An Rui strode toward the bedroom.

Zhou Li reacted and chased after her. Because he was in a hurry, his knee hit the coffee table and An Rui felt pain for him.

But she was not in the mood to care about his pain. Her heart was in a mess and she just wanted to avoid him and hide like an ostrich.

An Rui was about to close the bedroom door when she was suddenly hugged tightly from behind.

An Rui was shocked and looked at the hands that were hugging her tightly. He used so much strength that the veins on the back of his hands popped out, as if he was afraid that she would suddenly disappear.

An Rui was both angry and amused.

Was he going to strangle her to death?

“I don’t hate you.” His voice was nervous and bitter as he looked down at the top of her head. His heart was beating wildly and his mind was blank. He did not know what to say and could only follow his own feelings. “Don’t move.”

An Rui had many doubts at first, but she did not know if what he said was true.

But she could not ignore the thumping in his chest.

Why was his heart beating faster than hers?

An Rui bit her lip. “If you’re worried that we won’t be friends anymore, you don’t have to. As long as you don’t take this matter to heart, I won’t take it seriously either…”

Before he could finish, his arms around her tightened. “I took it seriously.”

An Rui patted his hands that were hugging her. “Let go of me first. If not, you’ll have to save me.”

Zhou Li immediately relaxed, but did not let go of her.

An Rui turned around from his arms with difficulty. His jaw was clenched tightly and his dark and bright eyes looked at her with obvious nervousness.

This was completely different from his usual calm appearance.

At this moment, he was like a young man who had never been in a relationship.

But then again, he had never been in a relationship before!

“That’s not right. Is it because no woman has kissed you before and we’ve known each other for many years? Once I take the initiative, you won’t know how you feel?” An Rui looked at him thoughtfully. “We haven’t started yet. If we stop here, we might still be able to get along with each other. But if we get together and break up, it’ll be awkward to be friends in the future!”

“I know very well.” Zhou Li did not dare to tell her that he had liked her for many years.

The more she cared about Shen Mingxiu back then, the more he cared about her!

Seeing that he did not hesitate to answer, An Rui could not help but laugh. “Then let’s try?”

“Okay.”

An Rui glared at him angrily and smiled. “I haven’t finished speaking. Why did you agree so quickly?”
