Mr. Xiao's Unconditional Love

“Brother Xiao is a heartthrob that many girls want to date. Is it weird that I have fallen for you?” She answered with a charming smile.

In addition to his eminent family background, he was also a charismatic figure with great appeal. His achievements, however, were solely the result of his dedication and had nothing to do with his background. Due to his incredible abilities, he was now one of the members of the Special Forces. It was obvious why many girls would fall for him.

Sadly, in the past, she was an idiot for not loving him back.

“It is not weird, but as far as I remember, you tend to avoid me most of the time, right?” He confidently questioned her.

“Well, I used to be shy and insecure about my unattractive appearance,” she smilingly replied. Her cheeks dimpled as she smiled.

In fact, she used to be quite chubby. Back in her hometown in the countryside, she had no control over her diet and was pampered with all the good food that her foster parents could find. With absolutely zero knowledge about beauty and apparel, she always felt inferior and timid when she first moved to the city.

Living in the courtyard had significantly changed her diet, and she also had to start working out because her grandfather demanded it. It was only then that her weight began to drop.

Her inferiority complex was probably the reason why she developed feelings for Shen Xichuan in the first place.

Lu Beixiao remained unconvinced, so he stared at her fixedly as if he was trying to read her mind. Her sudden change in attitude was somewhat perplexing. Just yesterday, the way she cried on the bed was still a vivid memory to him. He remembered how sad she looked at the time.

“Shen Xichuan and I are just classmates. He is not my type at all. There’s been a mistake, Brother Xiao. You are my type, the type that I love,” Ye Qiao confessed with her gaze fixed calmly on him.

She remembered the cold, the rain, and the tombstone that lay over his lifeless body. Those were the memories that wrung her broken heart to its very core. But this time around, she promised to spend her new life loving him with all her heart.

Many girls fancied Lu Beixiao, but she was the first one who went ahead and declared her feelings openly.

Lu Beixiao had always been impatient with women, but surprisingly, her confession brought him a sense of great pleasure. He could barely hide the joy in his eyes anymore.

“You really do know how to stir up my heart. How many people have you confessed to before me?” He answered with a playful grin.

He had never felt anything for anyone. However, for the first time, he could feel his heart pounding for the girl.

He had also never been in love, so to be honest, he was a little dumbfounded by her reckless confession. She sounded like a girl who had loved and been loved—someone who has experienced it all. In stark contrast, he was a boy who knew nothing at all about love.

It finally dawned upon Ye Qiao how open and direct her confession was, which would probably make any man skeptical. He did not know that she was reborn and that she would use every opportunity in her second life to make up for the loss they suffered in their previous lives. The confession was her way of taking a proactive approach.

She got closer and felt the steady heat radiating from his body for standing too long under the scorching sun. There was a faint scent of tobacco in his irresistibly sexy odor. Suddenly, she tiptoed and placed her lips next to his ear.

“I have only confessed to you, only you.” Her words undoubtedly tugged at his heartstrings.

Since Ye Qiao was staring straight into his eyes, he could clearly see the sincerity of her confession.

The world faded out for a few moments before Lu Beixiao could think straight again. Lightly, he smiled and said nothing more before he left.

Lu Beixiao decided to stop talking to her, for he was not sure what he would do next. After all, he was still in the backyard of the great Officer Ye.

The 21-year-old Lu Beixiao was tall and muscular, though slightly thinner than how he looked in his 30’s. Even in a tank top and a pair of shorts, he still shone with an awe-inspiring charm.

Her eyes followed him as he left. She refused to look away.

She felt no love for him in the past. Therefore, the affection was not mutual in their relationship. Even when she found out how much he loved her, she was mostly overcome with guilt, not love. But for the first time, she actually felt her heart thumping for him.

“Brother Xiao, the great commander is looking forward to seeing you. Go and see your grandparents!” She said to him at the top of her lungs. Lu Beixiao did not look back, but he did walk towards the house next door.
