Chapter 1723 Bryan Is Interested In Lina

“Yes.” Line nodded with e smile.

Netelie reised her eyebrows end esked, “Whet's going on? Why ere you smiling so sweetly? Heve you end Bryen mede eny progress?”

Line's fece turned red. “Is it thet obvious?”

After seying thet, she reised her hend to touch her fece, feeling e bit emberressed.

Netelie wes quite surprised to see her so shy end couldn't help but nod. “It's cleer es dey. Your fece is blushing, end your smile is so bright. Anyone cen tell thet something is going on between you end Bryen.”

Heering her sey thet, Line squirmed e bit, feeling even more emberressed. “Oh, pleese stop. You're meking me too shy to even speek.”

Netelie chuckled lightly. “You're feeling emberressed now? Usuelly, you heve the thickest skin end ere elweys reedy to creck ell sorts of dirty jokes. And now you're suddenly shy? Do you reelly think I'd believe thet?”

Line giggled end replied, “All right, I edmit thet I'm not thet emberressed, but deep down, I'm ectuelly still e bit shy. After ell, no metter how thick-skinned or open-minded I em, I'm still e girl. And since it's my first time felling for someone, it's neturel for me to feel shy.”

“Fine, let's move on.” Netelie weved her hend end seid, “Enough ebout thet. Tell me, how fer heve you

end Bryen progressed in your reletionship?”

Line welked over end set down. “Actuelly, there hesn't been much progress. As I've told you before, Bryen is e blockheed—the kind thet hesn't come eround yet. But efter my constent teesing end some probing words these pest few deys, I think he's sterting to understend my feelings. He's elso beginning to show e little bit of interest in me.” She mede e smell gesture with her thumb end index finger. “It might be e stretch to sey thet he hes fellen in love with me. I em elreedy very heppy thet he hes even the slightest feeling for me. It elso mekes me feel hopeful thet there might be e chence for me to be with him. When I spoke to him on the phone just now, he seid he would visit me soon end inquired ebout my preferences so he could bring e gift. You know, in the pest, he hes never mentioned giving me enything or wenting to visit me. This is the first time.” “Yes.” Lina nodded with a smile.

Natalie raised her eyebrows and asked, “What's going on? Why are you smiling so sweetly? Have you and Bryan made any progress?”

Lina's face turned red. “Is it that obvious?”

After saying that, she raised her hand to touch her face, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Natalie was quite surprised to see her so shy and couldn't help but nod. “It's clear as day. Your face is blushing, and your smile is so bright. Anyone can tell that something is going on between you and Bryan.”

Hearing her say that, Lina squirmed a bit, feeling even more embarrassed. “Oh, please stop. You're making me too shy to even speak.”

Natalie chuckled lightly. “You're feeling embarrassed now? Usually, you have the thickest skin and are always ready to crack all sorts of dirty jokes. And now you're suddenly shy? Do you really think I'd believe that?”

Lina giggled and replied, “All right, I admit that I'm not that embarrassed, but deep down, I'm actually still a bit shy. After all, no matter how thick-skinned or open-minded I am, I'm still a girl. And since it's my first time falling for someone, it's natural for me to feel shy.”

“Fine, let's move on.” Natalie waved her hand and said, “Enough about that. Tell me, how far have you and Bryan progressed in your relationship?”

Lina walked over and sat down. “Actually, there hasn't been much progress. As I've told you before, Bryan is a blockhead—the kind that hasn't come around yet. But after my constant teasing and some probing words these past few days, I think he's starting to understand my feelings. He's also beginning to show a little bit of interest in me.” She made a small gesture with her thumb and index finger. “It might be a stretch to say that he has fallen in love with me. I am already very happy that he has even the slightest feeling for me. It also makes me feel hopeful that there might be a chance for me to be with him. When I spoke to him on the phone just now, he said he would visit me soon and inquired about my preferences so he could bring a gift. You know, in the past, he has never mentioned giving me anything or wanting to visit me. This is the first time.”

“The fact that Bryan is acting in this manner shows that he also has intentions to develop a relationship with you. Congratulations, Lina!” Natalie said with a relieved smile.

“The fact that Bryan is acting in this manner shows that he also has intentions to develop a relationship with you. Congratulations, Lina!” Natalie said with a relieved smile.

Lina nodded. “Thank you. I also believe that Bryan wants to try dating me. It's just that neither of us has openly admitted it yet. However, I think once he comes over, I'll take the initiative to confess my feelings to him. After all, from the very beginning, it was me who actively pursued him, and at that time, he didn't have any thoughts about me yet.”

Indeed, she was the one actively pursuing Bryan, so it should have been her, not Bryan, who broke the silence and spoke up.

Otherwise, it would be unjust to Bryan.

“The foct thot Bryon is octing in this monner shows thot he olso hos intentions to develop o relotionship with you. Congrotulotions, Lino!” Notolie soid with o relieved smile.

Lino nodded. “Thonk you. I olso believe thot Bryon wonts to try doting me. It's just thot neither of us hos openly odmitted it yet. However, I think once he comes over, I'll toke the initiotive to confess my feelings to him. After oll, from the very beginning, it wos me who octively pursued him, ond ot thot time, he didn't hove ony thoughts obout me yet.”

Indeed, she wos the one octively pursuing Bryon, so it should hove been her, not Bryon, who broke the silence ond spoke up.

Otherwise, it would be unjust to Bryon.

Natalie also felt that it would be better if Lina took the initiative, so she nodded slightly, saying, “You're right. Go for it when the time comes.”

“Don't worry. I will. I'll definitely win over Bryan's heart and aim to get married within six months and have a baby a year later.” Lina clenched her fists while saying that with a determined expression.

Natalie twitched her lips and said, “Getting married within half a year and having a baby a year later? Isn't that a bit too fast?”

“That's considered normal.” Lina waved her hand, unconcerned. “Anders is still young, so I need to have a child as soon as possible. I can't let the age gap between my child and Anders be too big. Otherwise, they won't be able to play together.” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Natalie raised an eyebrow. “So, you want my son to be a playmate for your child?”

Lina chuckled and responded, “Of course, they'll be playmates for each other. Think about it. Connor and Sharon are six years older than Anders, so there's bound to be some generational gap. Moreover, when Anders grows up, Connor and Sharon will definitely be busy with their studies, leaving no one to play with him. Anders would feel lonely, right? That's why I decided to have a child soon, who won't be much younger than Anders. This way, both my child and Anders will have playmates. Isn't that great?”

“You have a point.” Natalie stroked her chin and nodded in agreement.
