> Hi Venus Recap
Because Ye Shilan thought of what Yao Jiajia had said last night. Yao Jiajia believed that Lu Zhaoxi must like Ye Shilan and would definitely say his ex-girlfriend was busy and couldn't go tomorrow, asking Ye Shilan to help. Then, Yao Jiajia suggested Ye Shilan pretend to refuse as a way to advance. Now, seeing that the plan was working, Ye Shilan could hardly conceal her inner joy. Ye Shilan specially dressed up.
Lu Zhaoxi drove to pick up Ye Shilan for dinner. Along the way, Ye Shilan frequently mentioned Qiao Yu and compared herself to Qiao Yu. Lu Zhaoxi smelled a car full of jealousy. Ye Shilan also specifically asked about Lu Zhaoxi's parents' preferences to avoid being at a loss when interacting with them. Lu Zhaoxi and Ye Shilan also specifically went to buy flowers and a cake.
After they returned, the two began to set up things needed for the evening's birthday party. Watching Ye Shilan busy herself, Lu Zhaoxi also played music, thoroughly enjoying the current feeling. Lu Zhaoxi asked Ye Shilan what kind of flower she thought she was. Ye Shilan felt she wasn't like a flower, but more like a leaf, born towards the sun with strong vitality.
Lu Zhaoxi confessed that if Ye Shilan were a leaf, he would never be able to see any flowers again. In the evening, the family celebrated Lu Zhaoxi's mother's birthday. Lu Zhaoxi's father suddenly asked Ye Shilan what she thought of Lu Zhaoxi as the dean. Lu Zhaoxi's mother advised him not to worry too much about young people's affairs, adding that Ye Shilan had come specifically for her sake today.
Lu Zhaoxi's father then stopped talking about serious topics, and the four of them finished the birthday celebration in a pleasant atmosphere. After seeing off Lu Zhaoxi's parents, Ye Shilan helped tidy up the room and felt that Lu Zhaoxi's family atmosphere was truly good, which made her think of her own father.
When Lu Zhaoxi drove Ye Shilan back, he formally confessed his feelings to her, saying he admitted defeat and acknowledged that he indeed liked Ye Shilan, and hoped to continue pursuing her. Ye Shilan also mentioned she had something to tell Lu Zhaoxi. Lu Zhaoxi nervously pulled over, and the two found a spot by the roadside to talk alone. Ye Shilan also expressed that she liked Lu Zhaoxi and appreciated his liking her.
She liked Lu Zhaoxi but was also afraid of his liking, worried that his feelings were a form of sympathy because he had seen her in a disheveled state. Lu Zhaoxi, however, said that he liked the Ye Shilan who always loved life. He had sympathy, but it was more about liking Ye Shilan.
Ye Shilan was afraid that their pretense as a couple would give Lu Zhaoxi the illusion of liking her, just as she herself had enjoyed the feeling of being a couple very early on. But Lu Zhaoxi also said that he had actually liked Ye Shilan even earlier, it was an involuntary liking, an involuntary desire to get closer.
He liked listening to Ye Shilan talk, liked chatting with Ye Shilan, and genuinely liked Ye Shilan from the bottom of his heart. Lu Zhaoxi leaned in twice, wanting to kiss Ye Shilan, but was interrupted by Ye Shilan's unfinished words. Ye Shilan also said that she was someone with not much luck and was quite awkward. She wanted to gain but was also afraid of losing. Lu Zhaoxi couldn't fully empathize but could understand Ye Shilan's heart.
When Ye Shilan finished speaking, she took the initiative to kiss Lu Zhaoxi. Although many things in the world are uncertain, if good things come, one should seize them. Lu Zhaoxi also passionately kissed Ye Shilan back. Lu Zhaoxi and Ye Shilan held hands and went back together. Lu Zhaoxi was worried that Ye Shilan would wake up tomorrow and say the kiss was an accident.
Ye Shilan said that things she had made up her mind about wouldn't change easily, and she even specifically kissed Lu Zhaoxi to seal the deal. After returning, Ye Shilan shared her relationship news with Yao Jiajia. Yao Jiajia praised Ye Shilan's progress, and Ye Shilan also said she would read more romance novels written by Yao Jiajia in the future. After spending a happy and sweet night, they welcomed the arrival of a new day.
