Chapter 150
Astrid blinked, looking up at Elio. “Marry him?”
“Mhm,” Elio nodded subtly.
In the few seconds he waited for her response, he was a bit on edge.
Astrid was silent for a few seconds, and then nodded her head. “Of course, I’ve considered it.”
Elio’s eyes lit up.
But before Elio could even utter a word, Astrid continued, “But…”
But?
His mood flipped from excited to anxious in an instant. The word “but” was never a good sign.
Astrid, completely oblivious to Elio’s inner turmoil, kept talking. “But, it’s just a thought. After all, he’s my emotional rock. I can admire from a distance, but I can’t get up close and personal.”
“Hmm?” Elio frowned, “Why can’t you get close?”
He had no objections to her getting close.
“In my imagination, he’s perfect. But if I were to actually get close, I might see his flaws, and my idol would be shattered!”
Elio initially thought he had this in the bag, he even prepared a recording device in case she backed out.
But Astrid was not playing by the rules.
Not willing to give up, Elio continued, “Seems like you’re not really in love with your idol.”
“Huh?” Astrid was taken aback, “How could you say that I don’t love him?”
Elio looked at Astrid, moved closer and whispered, “Don’t you young girls always say that if you can’t be with your idol, life is meaningless?”
“I can see that you don’t even want to be with him, which means you don’t like him that deeply.”
Astrid choked.
What kind of logic is that?
She had felt something was off about Elio from the start, and his words just confirmed her suspicions.
With Elio’s personality, if he knew she admired another man, he would definitely belittle him!
There’s no way he would utter something like ‘life is meaningless without your idol‘.
And he was being so indirect, clearly trying to lead her into saying something.
Considering the comments Elio left on her Instagram last night, Astrid suddenly understood.
He was playing the long game…
Trying to lead her into saying something he wanted to hear?
Astrid smirked, “My affection for him is not as simple as you think. He’s like a god in my life. Whenever I encounter a problem, I pray for his blessing. I even want to set up a monument in his honor.”
Elio was devastated.
Set up a monument?
Seeing Elio’s face fall, Astrid had to hold back her laughter. “Elio, thank you so much for bringing me all these things. It’s late, you should go home. Good night.”
With that, she pushed a disgruntled Elio out of the room and shut the door.
After locking the door, Astrid picked up the helmet, the corners of her mouth lifting in an uncontrollable smile.
Elio was Fate.
He was her ido!!!!
Rickon should have lost the competition with him, so he agreed to pursue his own. Yesterday, Elio saw her Instagram, so he prepared all this stuff to catch her attention.
But unfortunately, his skills were still too rusty.
She saw his intention at a glance.
His behavior today was just too abnormal.
Even if she wanted to, it was hard not to suspect him.
