Chapter 11: "Time Waits For No One"

Lai Jiayi's words just tickled Zhao Yang's heart. The guy felt his mind turn white for a second before it cleared up again. That irritating feeling before slowly vanished, replaced with curiosity.

"...if you know I'll reject you, then why?" Zhao Yang gripped his trousers. "Why would you tell someone when you know the result will not be favorable?"

'Is she dumb? What she did is something futile. If she knows she will be rejected, then why does she still confess in the first place? It's as if asking to be hurt.'

The man couldn't help but frown.

'If it was me, I'll never do anything like this.'

When Lai Jiayi heard the question, her eyes lit up. The girl silently smirked.

'This is the question I'm waiting for! Knowing Zhao Yang's character, he will not understand why someone does something useless like this. Thus, he will ask me.'

Everything is according to my plan.

[Yaya, get ready for the mirror and the lighting effect!] Lai Jiayi told Yaya as she held her breath, preparing for her answer.

'This is where I should use quotes to touch his heart.'

As Yaya prepared for the effect, Lai Jiayi slowly opened her eyes and smiled sweetly. She scratched her cheeks and mumbled,

"I-if you ask me why I still tell you my feelings...d-despite knowing the outcome…" Lai Jiayi paused. She pursed her lips and straightened her back.

"I-it is because...you don't need a reason to tell someone how you feel…"

Zhao Yang's breath stilled. Something just tugged his heartstring, and at the same time, Yaya started to use the mirror. He directed the sunlight coming from the large window behind Lai Jiayi to shine on the girl.

"I-i know...my confession to you will not change the outcome…" Lai Jiayi bit her lips. Her body shuddered, yet she tried her best to look strong.

"B-but...I still want to do it. I...don't want to look back a few years from now on, a-and regret my decision of not telling you how I feel." Lai Jiayi's gentle voice sounded in the corridor, followed by the soft sunlight shining upon her brown hair.

Her amber eyes were sparkling like precious gems, and since Yaya also added that halo effect bit by bit, the girl was sparkling. She almost looked like an angel from heaven.

Zhao Yang subconsciously widened his eyes. His pupil shook, and his entire sight was locked on one person. A girl who was trembling yet tried to look brave. She looked at him straight to his eyes.

There's no hesitation in her eyes. Nor regret.

"Y-you see…" Lai Jiayi tucked her hair behind her ears.

'Zhao Yang is hooked. The last step. The final blow.'

"I...I don't want to regret anything…" Lai Jiayi pursed her lips and smiled, showing her most innocent smile. "Because w-we can't turn back times."

Lai Jiayi inhaled and looked straight at Zhao Yang's eyes. She poured all her 'feelings' into her eyes and spoke in a clear, unwavering voice.

"Time waits for no one. Not you, not me, and not your past."

The sunlight suddenly shone brightly upon the corridor, thanks to the mirror Yaya held behind Lai Jiayi. Coupled with the holy effect, everything looked bright.

It was so bright that the corridor looked like heaven. And in the middle of this was a young girl in tattered clothes, dirty and filthy. Yet the smile on her face overshadowed everything.

One could see the girl was squeezing her palms, clearly feeling nervous. Yet, her eyes were so clear that no one could see even a single bitterness inside.

Those honey-like eyes, which were exactly like that person, now looked completely different.

Strong. Independent. Honest. And most importantly, this girl dared to face her feelings.

She won't regret anything in her life.

Zhao Yang felt the surroundings just stopped moving. Time froze for him. His heart started to pound faster, and the image of the girl's smile slowly sunk into his mind.

"You...are weird." Zhao Yang averted his eyes. His cheek flushed a bit, yet he covered it with his palm so no one could see it.

TING! [Barometer raises!]

A notification sounded in Lai Jiayi's mind, and at this moment, it felt like a bell from heaven.

We...we did it!!

[Kyaaaak! Jia, awesome, quack!! The barometer raises by quite a lot, quack!!] Yaya hit Lai Jiayi's shoulder from behind.

'It's raised by 3%!! Now the barometer is at 23%. I think it's relatively low since this should be a memorable scene for Zhao Yang, but considering he was almost angry back then…'

Yaya squeezed his eyes.

'This is good! At least, this event will be the seed of something in the future. As long as we keep watering the seed, we can make Zhao Yang move on for real!'

Yaya was so excited despite the barometer only raising by 3%. The same went for Lai Jiayi. The girl didn't care whether she raised the barometer by a lot or not.

'As long as I raise the barometer! I have dodged the possibility of Zhao Yang lowering the barometer. Then...I have chosen the right option for the otome game assistance back then!'

Lai Jiayi felt like crying, but the girl knew she couldn't break out of her character. Not yet. She still needed to wrap this up beautifully.

"T-that's the reason why...I still tell you my feelings, boss…" Lai Jiayi lowered her head and silently sighed in relief.

'Now it's done. I don't care what Zhao Yang will say later. It might be hurtful words, but I don't care. It's not like I love him for real.'

Now...what will you say, boss?
