Lu Jinnian lifted his lips lightly, but he didn't speak. The entire room was so quiet that even the sparks of light from the candles could be heard. After a long while, Lu Jinnian finally spoke, but instead of replying to her, he called her lightly, "Qiao Qiao..."
Qiao Anhao raised her head in confusion, looking up at him. "Huh?"
Lu Jinnian stared at her, his eyes a mixture of emotions. He wanted to tell her that she was the girl that he loved, but he was afraid that if it went wrong, they couldn't even be friends.
When someone has totally lost something, he never wants to return back to that stage. The five years without her was the worst time of his life and he never wanted to relive that again.
His heart was in a mess. After a long while, he finally cleared his throat. "You are girl worthy of love."
