After being reborn, I stole the female lead's cheat ability and raised the empress.

Chapter 114 Honesty and Integrity

"How... how can this be described as lust at first sight..."

Ali interrupted him directly: "Then tell me, what do you like about me?"

"...If you like something, you just like it. Do you need any other reason?"

"I'm also very curious. Although we've known each other for more than two months, how exactly did you fall in love with me, and what aspects of me do you like?"

“This…” Yu Yang stammered.

What did he like about her? He couldn't really say, but he liked her as long as it was her.

In any aspect.

"Tsk, how could you not say you like someone? You're just lying to me!" Xia Li tried to provoke him, hoping to get information out of him.

Yu Yang was anxious, but didn't know what to say. After thinking for a while, he directly revealed his identity:

"I came from another time."

"I know," Xia Li said, as if she had expected it.

"You know?" Yu Yang thought the other person had recognized him, and his eyes sparkled with joy.

"Leaving aside the flaws from before, just now, I used a lot of modern terms, and you didn't find them unfamiliar at all; on the contrary, you picked them up naturally. Although there are many transmigrators in this interface, and many modern things are common here, it's only limited to the more mainstream. I didn't expose you before simply out of respect."

"Oh..." His joy was wasted. Yu Yang's shoulders slumped, and he said dejectedly:

But I will always remember you.

!!!

Xia Li was surprised to see Yu Yang looking so devastated.

She knew that the other person was referring to herself on Earth.

But who is Yu Yang? She has no recollection of him!

Could it be that he's not wearing the same name as someone else? Xia Li tentatively asked, "What's your name on Earth?"

"Yu Yang".

Good news: It's the same name.

Bad news: I really don't remember it.

However, this wasn't her fault. He was an international student who had just returned to China and joined his company, always using his English name. Because his English name started with the letter Y, Ali usually called him Xiao Yi, Xiao Yu, or Xiao Yang.

"Um, I might..." She pointed to her head, trying to subtly remind the other person to introduce themselves.

Yu Yang nodded: "I understand."

Xia Li was just breathing a sigh of relief when she heard the other person say the next thing:

"You've hit your head."

Xia Li: ...

I thought he understood; he thought I had hit my head.

He said, "Boss, how could you forget about me?"

He said, "When the company was first established, there were only the two of us. You said I was your best friend."

He said, "The company was framed by our competitors and fell into crisis. Everyone left, and it was just the two of us left. You said you would never forget this time, never forget me. Boss, have you forgotten?"

He said, "At the company's 10th anniversary party, you said that I am the most special person to you and to the company, and thanked me for my unwavering companionship over the past ten years."

He said: "..."

Yu Yang was talking to himself about the things and feelings he had experienced over the years, completely unaware that Ali was lost in thought and hadn't heard a word he was saying.

Ah Li was shocked: No, this guy is the assistant?

The two of them have changed so much in terms of personality and appearance!

Her assistant was a sunny, cheerful, and innocent young man who would sweetly call her "sister." Unlike this guy now, who had a cynical look on his face, was always trying to take advantage of her, and was clearly a cunning old fox.

she she she...

What should I do if it seems completely unacceptable?

The woman, who had been lost in thought, didn't come back to her senses for more than half an hour, but as soon as she did, she was criticized mercilessly.

Because at this moment, Yu Yang is making a heartfelt confession.

"...I've liked you since my first month at the company, for ten years. Then I transmigrated to this world for ten years, so I've liked you for a full 20 years now. And yet you still think I like that girl Zhou Yan'er. Can't you tell whether I like you or not?"

She couldn't help but feel ashamed.

Yu Yang likes me, but what have I done?

They spared no effort in trying to match him with other people!

It's embarrassing just thinking about it.

But when Yan'er confessed her feelings, and seeing how well Yu Yang treated her, she decided to play matchmaker.

wrong……

Xia Li suddenly realized something and asked in confusion, "If you like me, why are you still nice to Yan'er? And I've noticed you looking at her frequently, and you always seem lost in thought when we're doing the accounts... You're not really a scumbag, are you?"

"It's all because of you. The person I like is right next to me, how can I remain unmoved? I'm only nice to her because she's your friend. Besides, I wanted to find something to do so I could forget..." Yu Yang didn't elaborate on what he meant by forgetting, only saying:

"I'm only interested in you."

"But you're nice to other girls too."

"Well... when someone greets me, I just respond."

He seems like a kind and gentle person, but in reality, there's a huge distance between him and others.

Come to think of it, aren't I the same?

After they talked so much and revealed their identities, the distance between them quickly closed, and she wasn't so angry with Yu Yang anymore.

"Alright, alright, I won't argue with you anymore."

"So you agree to date me?"

"Let's talk about it later. Let's go find the treasure first."

"Hey, you can't keep me in suspense like this, just tell me already."

"I haven't even brought up your lewd behavior yet! Are you starting to become a scoundrel?"

Yu Yang was so frightened that he immediately fell silent.

He was like a deflated balloon, utterly powerless, his brow furrowed in anxiety.

How to do?

He used his memories from his past life to make a gamble, but it seems he made the wrong bet?

Does your boss actually not like you?

Waaah, it seems like she doesn't like me, whether in my past life or this one?

Oh, the boss has never been in a relationship either.

How come this heart is so indestructible, like it's been deceived by a dozen scumbags?

How long will it take him to win over his boss?

"Oh no! It's all over!"

Ali's scream immediately pulled Yu Yang back to reality. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ali was filled with anxiety: "I've been doing everything I can to bring you and Zhou Yan'er together... but now you're telling me you like me and not her. Oh my god, how am I supposed to face her when I get back?"

Yu Yang: "..."

"Who told you to play matchmaker back then?"

"Ah... I thought you were interested in her back then... When I asked you, you even admitted it..." Xia Li said, pretending to be righteous.

Yu Yang was almost laughing in anger: "What I did was... Ha! Besides, didn't I confess my feelings to you before?"

"I had no feelings for you back then and had already rejected you. You didn't mention it again after that, so I thought our relationship was over..."

"...I was afraid you'd feel guilty! I didn't want you to be under pressure..."

"Then...then..." Ali's little face scrunched up like a bitter gourd: "Oh my god, how am I going to explain this to Zhou Yan'er when I get back?"

Yu Yang said irritably, "Figure it out yourself!"
