My Whole Family Are Villain

Chapter 95: Awkward

Su Bei finally realized that something was wrong. In the past, Lin Shaochi's attitude towards her and Xiaobao had always been like an elder brother, and sometimes Su Bei even jokingly said that Brother Lin was more like a dad.

However, it was clear that the words Lin Shaochi just said had completely exceeded the boundary of a 'brother.'

"Brother Lin, you—" Did he eat something wrong today?

Su Bei looked at Lin Shaochi with strange eyes.

Lin Shaochi smiled: "Don't you want to ask why?"

Lin Shaochi looked at Su Bei. His eyes were very deep and intense, as if he was about to swallow her whole.

Su Bei: No, she doesn't want to.

Although she didn't know what answer was Lin Shaochi going to say, Su Bei instinctively wanted to avoid it.

However, before she could refused, Lin Shaochi had already said: "Because I like you."

Finally, Lin Shaochi said the sentence that had been buried deep inside his heart for four years. After he spoke, Lin Shaochi paused a little. He saw the panic and surprise on Su Bei's face. Lin Shaochi didn't want to scare her, but he knew that he could not hesitate at this moment. Once he hesitated, he would no longer be able to suppress the crazy throb in his heart.

"I like you, not with a brotherly feeling, but as a man towards a woman." After a pause, Lin Shaochi continued: "Since four years ago."

This was the deepest secret hidden by Lin Shaochi. Because of this feeling, he had been tormented for four years, and even once felt that he was worse than a beast. But at this moment, facing his beloved girl, Lin Shaochi didn't mind exposing this secret.

"That...Brother Li—no, I..."

Lin Shaochi's sudden confession made Su Bei panicked. For years, Lin Shaochi had always been her boss and work partner, and also a caring brother for her and Su Xiaobao. She never had an idea that Lin Shaochi actually...liked her?

Lin Shaochi's feeling was totally inconceivable for Su Bei. Facing his confession, her first reaction was wanting to escape.

"Did I scare you?"

Su Bei's reaction fell on Lin Shaochi's eyes. Although his heart sank so much that it was suffocating, he had expected it beforehand. Lin Shaochi smiled bitterly. When he spoke again, he had regained his usual tenderness. "Don't be afraid. You don't need to care so much. If you don't like, just treat it as I haven't said anything."

Su Bei: "I..."

"Let's go. I will send you home."

"No need. I will call Uncle Fu to send a driver here." Didn't know how to face Lin Shaochi, Su Bei subconsciously stepped back and refused his offer.

Her avoidance pained Lin Shaochi, but he concealed it and said: "Alright."

After all, it was he who scared her.

After she was home, Su Bei was still in a daze. Su Xiaobao saw Su Bei's distracted look during the dinner and finally couldn't help asking: "What's wrong?"

"Did you get scared by today's car accident?" Su Xiaobao frowned. He looked at Su Bei disapprovingly: "Next time, don't go into an accident site again."

"Not that."

"Then what?" Su Bei's mood at this moment was clearly not right.

"..." After some hesitation, Su Bei dragged Su Xiaobao into her room.
