Chapter 260: Chapter 258: Lord Jing: Wanting a Lifetime Together, Confession Shocks the World
Claire Green took two small steps back, watching the man with interest.
"Brother sure thinks far ahead."
Who would’ve thought?
The man’s smile deepened upon hearing this, his clear magnetic voice wrapped with laughter, inexplicably captivating and heart-fluttering.
"Not far, just thinking for a lifetime."
Seeing the man’s usually aloof eyes filled with deep affection, Claire Green’s lips curled, warmth overflowing in her heart.
Suddenly.
The urgent ringtone of a phone broke their tender gaze.
Claire Green glanced at the caller ID, raising an eyebrow; the timing of this call couldn’t be more precise.
As soon as she answered, Isabella Xyler’s excited chipmunk-like scream came through, tingling her eardrums a bit.
"Ah ah ah, Olivia, did Mr. Julian confess to you?"
Hearing the unrestrained excitement in her voice, Claire Green raised an eyebrow, lazily replying, "How do you know again?"
This girl is just as nosy as Mason Quinn.
Isabella Xyler held back her rising lips, "Not only do I know, now the whole world does. I never thought Mr. Julian could be so charming."
It’s one thing to book the world’s big screens, but the words displayed weren’t clichéd at all; in the past, she never would’ve believed that Mr. Julian would do such a thing.
Claire Green murmured, casually asking, "What’s going on?"
They’re both low-key people, and the confession at the Manor of River Hills couldn’t possibly have spread out.
"You can’t possibly not know that Mr. Julian booked all the world’s electronic billboards to confess to you, right?" Isabella Xyler tentatively began, "It’s all exploded on Weibo now."
Hearing this.
Claire Green gave an astonished look at the man in front of her, unable to imagine he’d do such a thing.
Meeting her gaze, Julian Sia’s eyes flickered unnaturally; upon closer inspection, you could see a slight redness on his ears.
Noticing this, Claire Green let out a low laugh.
Usually, this man was very good at charming her back; she didn’t expect he’d also have moments of shyness.
"Brother, do you have something to confess?"
Her voice was teasing, her gaze suggestively glancing at the phone.
Understanding what she meant, Julian Sia gave a light cough, awkwardly changing the subject, "Would you like to try on the dress, Ah Jin?"
Claire Green observed him for a moment before giving a lazy laugh, without exposing, "Sure, I’ll try it on."
Watching her holding the dress go upstairs, Julian Sia spread his large hands, smiling as he wiped the sweat off his fingers.
Since he became sensible, nothing had ever made his palms sweat with nervousness, no wonder those online confession posts always talk about being extremely nervous, it really is true.
Upstairs.
Claire Green placed the dress on the bed, recalling the man’s unnatural gaze, her red lips tilted up as she leisurely opened Weibo.
The top trending topics were all related to this confession.
"A Life for Olivia, Whether It’s You or Me"
"Confession by Booking World Screens"
"Discussion on Love Among the Wealthy"
"It Turns Out This Is the New Way to Confess"
Seeing these topics, Claire Green found it quite amusing.
She casually clicked on the first topic, nonchalantly scrolling through the comments.
[Who’s so extravagant, booking all the world’s electronic screens just to confess?]
[Am I the only one who thinks the confession words are sweet? Compared to the old ’I love you,’ ’I like you,’ it’s much sweeter.]
[Agree with the above, based on this phrase, I blindly guess that both people in this couple must have the word ’Jin’ or a similar-sounding word in their names.]
[A Life for Olivia, just thinking of it is romantic.]
[Seeing others’ confessions, I couldn’t help but slap my boyfriend who’s still gaming.]
[Indeed, love always belongs to others.]
Just then, a different comment appeared.
[Am I the only one noticing a small ’Sia’ character at the bottom of the text?]
Seeing this comment, many people went back to watch the video again.
[Oh wow, it really is there.]
[Sia? I suddenly have a bold theory.]
[Surname Sia, with ’Julian’ in the name, and wealthy, everything matches.]
[If I’m not mistaken, last time this person lit up River Hills all night for a girl’s birthday, and then gave the Manor of River Hills as a birthday gift. Now they’re going all out for a confession.]
[I may not qualify for love among the wealthy, but I can still enjoy the sweetness.]
[I always thought rich playboys wouldn’t take feelings seriously, nor would they lower themselves to confess; now it seems not entirely true.]
[Rumor has it the head of the Sia Manor is not fond of women; who’d have thought once close, he’d be like us, going through all the trouble to confess and give gifts.]
Where there’s admiration, there’ll naturally be envy.
Soon, the comment section was filled with a group of people barking nonsense.
[When this man likes you, he’s generous; but if he loses interest, don’t even think about the Manor of River Hills, you might not even have the ability to survive.]
[Does she really think getting into Sia Manor is easy? Mr. Sia just wants to try something new; does that girl think she’s truly important?]
[People need self-awareness; in wealthy circles, status and background matter. If Mr. Sia truly liked her, why would there be no photos?]
Seeing these bitter comments, many netizens couldn’t hold back and immediately retorted.
[Damn, where did all these idiots come from? If your IQ isn’t enough, just stay put and keep quiet.]
[Damn it, I was smiling at the comments until these idiotic remarks appeared, turning a pot of good porridge with a few rat droppings.]
[Jealousy truly makes one ugly; they say Mr. Sia is just playing, but deep down they’re probably thinking, why isn’t the girl Mr. Sia likes me?]
[Photos? What a joke! Everyone in Z Country knows the Sia family’s head hates photos, otherwise, why are there still no pictures of him out there?]
Claire Green roughly skimmed through a few topic comments, tsking lightly after a moment, turning off the phone and tossing it aside.
She casually picked up the dress from the bed and went to the walk-in closet to change; the online comments didn’t affect her at all.
When she came out of the walk-in closet, she saw the man sitting quietly on the couch, his fingers sliding over the phone screen.
"Brother, when do you plan to change your habit of entering without a word?"
Hearing the girl’s teasing voice, Julian Sia raised his eyes to look, and his gaze froze.
When designing this dress, he’d imagined how Ah Jin would look in it, but seeing her now, he felt a pang of regret.
He shouldn’t have suggested Ah Jin try it on.
"Doesn’t it look good?"
Claire Green raised an eyebrow, walking over with long, leisurely strides.
Watching the girl in her dress walking toward him, every step was seductive and alluring.
His Adam’s apple rolled unconsciously, his well-defined hand falling on the girl’s cool white wrist, tightening slightly to pull her closer.
Before Claire Green could react, she heard his low, husky voice.
"It’s beautiful, makes me want to hide Ah Jin away."
Then.
A warm, tender touch on her lips.
Claire Green’s eyes filled with a smile, her eyelids slowly closing.
This man really doesn’t miss any chance to take advantage.
