Chapter 54: Zou Xiaomi, I like you
The address has been changed to Zhang Changping's place. There are quite a few varieties of dishes here, but since there were only the two of them, Zou Xiaomi just made one dish of braised pork, one dish of stir-fried vegetarian chicken, and a carp tofu soup, plus one dish of celery stir-fry with meat.
Making these dishes didn't take Zou Xiaomi too much time, Lu Changping didn't know how to cook, so Zou Xiaomi didn't let him help out here. He had been pushed out early on, while she was busy in the kitchen, like a little elf.
When cooking, Zou Xiaomi was very dedicated and careful, and she didn't notice that Lu Changping was standing behind her watching her.
After finishing all these dishes and turning around, she suddenly found that Lu Changping had been standing at the kitchen door, his eyes filled with deep affection looking at her.
"How are you still here?" Zou Xiaomi asked with a smile, but her heart was somewhat nervous and her face couldn't help but turn red.
Lu Changping smiled and walked over to her, saying: "It's been many years since someone cooked for me. Seeing you... feels very warm, Xiao Mi, thank you."
Zou Xiaomihong blushed and smiled, saying: "Why be so polite, we are friends, doing this little thing is also what should be done."
"Friend? Are we just friends?" Lu Changping asked her in a low tone.
Zou Xiaomi was startled, and hurriedly laughed twice, saying: "What else could it be? Lu Ge, I really consider you my best friend."
"But, Xiao Mi, I didn't take you as my friend, at least not an ordinary friend." Lu Changping said with some excitement, and it seemed like he couldn't continue, pausing for a moment before saying with a hint of pain: "Xiao Mi, I used to think that there was nothing wrong with me. But now...I feel that I was wrong, terribly wrong, really, I'm in so much pain now, every time I see you, I'm in pain and can't bear it."
Lu Changping said, and suddenly lowered his head and choked up, as if he was really in pain.
Zou Xiaomi was frightened and hastily asked: "Lu Ge, what's wrong with you? Why is it like this? Is it... that I made you uncomfortable? I'll leave right away, I'll leave right away."
Zou Xiaomi said as she hurriedly untied her apron and was about to go out.
But she didn't walk out, instead falling into Lu Changping's arms.
Lu Changping almost pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly and sobbing: "Xiaomi, don't go, you didn't make me uncomfortable. On the contrary, do you know? I saw how excited you were. Before, I always thought I loved Tang Linyan, but when you said you and Gu Zijun were getting married, I realized who I really loved. Xiaomi, I like you, I like you! I know it's too late to say these things, but I couldn't control myself. If I didn't say them out loud, I probably wouldn't be at peace for the rest of my life. Xiaomi, sorry, sorry."
"Lu... Lu Ge, do you know what you're saying?" Zou Xiaomi was completely shocked, dazed and being held in Lu Changping's arms, her whole mind was a mess.
Lu Changping nodded heavily and said, "I know, of course I know what I'm talking about. Xiaomi, these words are not spoken on a whim, nor am I joking. What I said is true, I like you Xiaomi, I love you."
"But..." Zou Xiaomi became anxious, feeling uncomfortable in her heart, and her mind was even more chaotic.
Lu Changping's sudden confession made her dizzy, she didn't know why such a thing happened. Lu Changping, this person who had never really looked at her properly from the start, how could he suddenly confess to her. New address changed to
