Love You for the Rest of My Life

Chapter 2319 - 2323: You Can’t Hide It If You Truly Like Someone

"Hmm?" Nangong Lin raised her eyebrows, instantly denying, "What are you talking about? Nonsense."

But her face unmistakably flushed a little, even her ear tips were tinged with a light pink.

Nangong Lin’s shy demeanor surprised everyone for a moment, then they burst into laughter.

Although everyone present was younger than her, they were all seasoned veterans, experienced in such matters!

Could her expression fool anyone’s eyes?

Gu Qibao said directly, "Ling Jie, stop hiding it. Your attempt at disguise has no skill whatsoever. You just blushed, yet you claim there’s nothing between you and Alvin."

Gu Qibao hit the nail on the head, and Nangong Ran and the others nodded in agreement, "Exactly, exactly."

Nangong Lin frowned, was she really that obvious?

Clearly, she hadn’t done or said anything!

"Ling Jie, I think you should just admit it." Di Xiaxia spoke up, "When you truly like someone, it’s impossible to hide it. You can’t hide it, Alvin can’t hide it either. Just look at your interactions at your press conference; anyone with eyes can see there’s something between the two of you!

Either you like him or he likes you, or perhaps, you both like each other."

"Isn’t that right, Second Sister? What’s so embarrassing to admit?" Nangong Ran pouted.

"Sigh!" Nangong Lin sighed heavily, then sat down on the sofa, silent, contemplating, and finally said, "Actually, I do like him a little bit, just a little, but I haven’t thought about being together with him, so it’s better not to bring this up."

"Huh?" The group widened their eyes, all asking in unison, "Why not?"

"If you like him, why not be together?" Gu Qibao was very puzzled.

"Does liking him mean we have to be together?" Nangong Lin countered, looking at Gu Qibao, then at the others, "Don’t you think it’s strange for Alvin and me to be together?"

"What’s so strange about it?" Nangong Ran was puzzled, "You two are clearly such a good match. Besides, Second Sister, mom really wants you to get married soon, and you shouldn’t delay it anymore. Since you like him, you should be together. Moreover, Alvin and you are a perfect match!"

"How are we a match?" Nangong Lin widened her eyes in surprise, "I’m older than him, alright! Besides, he’s the Prince of B Country, and I don’t want to marry into B Country and become some sort of princess, it seems like such a thankless task! Anyway, it’s not suitable, I’d rather be carefree in the Empire."

Everyone: "..."

"What kind of logic is that?" Nangong Ran couldn’t help but say, "Do you really need to consider so much when you like someone?"

"Why not consider?" Nangong Lin said, "Being together is a lifelong commitment, decades long! If you can’t live freely, can’t live the way you want, then being together would be exhausting. If that’s the case, I’d rather not be together."

Nangong Ran: "..."

"Do you want Alvin to stay in the Empire?" Di Jinxuan raised her eyebrows proposing.

"Pfft..." Nangong Lin couldn’t help but laugh, "My Sister Xuanxuan, you’re oversimplifying things! He’s a noble prince of B Country, what’s he doing in the Empire? Living like a common person? Besides, he can stay, but what about his own country? Would his mom agree? Would his family agree? Would his countrymen agree? Such a big reputation, I can’t bear it!

A prince has to get married; are you suggesting he ’marries’ into the Empire? Isn’t that a joke? Moreover, it’s easy to say now, but once married, when the deed is done, and he wants to return to his country to be a prince, or even a king, could I stop him?"

Nangong Lin’s words made Nangong Ran and the others fall silent.
