Childhood Sweethearts: He's Jealous Again!-Chapter 533 - 523: Could She Also Like Uncle Duck

Viscount Li hesitated for a moment before tentatively asking, "What if I say... it’s because I like you?"

"Ah?" Tong Mo couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

How could he like her?

Seeing the little girl seemingly frightened, Viscount Li immediately realized he might have been too hasty, so he subtly reined in the emotion in his eyes and casually said while touching the steering wheel, "I was just joking with you, no need to take it seriously."

"So that’s it..." Tong Mo instantly breathed a sigh of relief, yet she felt an inexplicable sense of loss.

But as to what exactly she was losing out on, Tong Mo wasn’t clear.

"Mhm." Viscount Li nodded indifferently.

As his word fell, Tong Mo stopped talking as well.

The atmosphere in the car gradually grew tenser.

Tong Mo inexplicably felt restless.

So, she licked her lips and started looking for a topic, "Um... Uncle, do you know, I lied today."

"What lie did you tell?" Viscount Li, who was driving ahead, suddenly became interested.

Tong Mo said while giggling, "My dad originally did not allow me to go to school, and then I lied to my dad that the Li family’s young master who is engaged to me agreed to wait for me to finish college before considering our marriage."

"Finish college?" Upon hearing this, Viscount Li’s eyebrows immediately knitted together, and he couldn’t help asking, "Wouldn’t that be too long?"

He was already twenty-eight now. If he waited for her for another four years, wouldn’t he be thirty-two or three years old?

By then, wouldn’t all his younger brothers’ children be able to help around the house?

Not acceptable.

Absolutely not.

He just wanted to secure a relationship with her immediately and then take it to the next level!

"Is four years that long? Besides, I never intended to marry him. Once I get to college, if I meet someone I like, I will marry him right away." Tong Mo had already made up her mind. There was no way she would submit to Tong Aiguo’s will.

If he were truly looking out for her best interest, then she would certainly give some thought to this marriage. But he wasn’t, he simply wanted an alliance marriage and to treat her as a pawn to be exchanged for financial benefits!

She would never allow it!

"You can’t!"

At her words, Viscount Li suddenly slammed on the brakes.

She could only be his, how could she get a marriage certificate with another man!

The mere thought made Viscount Li feel his blood surge and a hostile aura burst forth from within him.

"Why are you so agitated?" Tong Mo, seeing his sudden intense reaction, couldn’t help but ask, "Could it be that you really like me?"

As she asked this, not even Tong Mo realized her voice contained a hint of anticipation.

"...Yes!"

After a moment of hesitation, Viscount Li finally admitted his feelings.

"No way! You really fell for me?" Tong Mo couldn’t help but cover her mouth, her eyes widening in shock.

Although she had suspected that he might really be interested in her, otherwise why would he care about her so much?

But suspicion is one thing, and him declaring it was quite another.

"Yes, I like you! Tong Mo, I like you!" Viscount Li repeated his feelings once more.

And then he pressed her, "What about you, do you like me?"

As he asked, a pair of deep and expressive eyes stared intently at her, the gaze tense and fervent, like a teenager experiencing his first love.

"I..." Tong Mo moved her lips, only to find she was suddenly unable to utter the words "I don’t like you!"

Oh my god!

Has she gone mad?

Could it be that she also likes Uncle Duck?
