Hearing Xiao Shao's words, Xu Xiang's smile froze when she looked at him. When her eyes met his serious but gentle eyes, her mind went blank. For the first time, Xu Xiang discovered that the way Xiao Shao looked at her was different from how others looked at friends.
Xiao Shao's gaze never left her, and he could see every subtle change in her expression. He was so happy when he saw the realization in her beautiful eyes, that she finally realized his feelings. But before he could open his mouth to tell her how he felt, he found the realization inside her eyes turned into denial, and then transformed into shock, and then fear.
Xiao Shao was surprised to find that her feelings changed so quickly, and lost the courage to tell her his true feelings. When he saw the denial and fear in her eyes, he knew instinctively that if he told her his true feelings for her right now, then he couldn't even stay as her friend. He will lose his only relationship with her.
