Chapter 111 - I Love You
Chapter 111: I Love You
He caught her little hand and held it firmly. He continued to speak in his mesmerising husky voice. “No? Your cheeks have already turned red.”
“My skin is so dark. How can you tell if it’s red?” At the thought of her dark complexion, she really wished that she could undo all the damage she had done to herself in the past. Was it possible to regain her fair skin in an instant?
He lifted his other hand and gently caressed her face. “Your skin is almost peeling off from the damage. In the future… don’t burn yourself to this extent for the sake of avoiding me.” He recalled that when she was young, her skin had been extremely fair.
Pain lanced through her heart. “You know that I tanned my skin intentionally… and that I did it to avoid you…”
“En.” He nodded somewhat gloomily. “If you really don’t wish to see me again, tell me. I’ll… try my best not to appear in front of you.”
God only knows how difficult it was for him to make such a promise.
Each day that he spent without seeing her only served to deepen his longing for her.
Whenever he had to stop himself from seeing her, he could sense himself losing control and become agitated.
He feared that even if he promised her, he would not be able to live up to his words.
She covered his lips and rushed to speak up. “No! I always want to see you!”
Surprise filled his cold eyes. He asked in a hoarse voice. “Really?”
“Really!” She nodded with force.
In this life, she did not wish to separate from him for even a moment.
He abruptly brought her into an embrace, holding her firmly in his strong arms. It was as though he was trying to merge them into becoming one being. “Fang Xinxin, if you do this, you’ll make me think that you love me!”
I do love you!
She cried out in her heart.
However, she would not tell him this right now.
Both in their past lives and right now, the distance between them was akin to that of heaven and earth. It wasn’t only so in the eyes of others.
It was a reality that she was not worthy of him at the moment. He was like the clouds in the sky, while she was a pile of mud on the ground.
I love you so much. You’re my idol.
I don’t want you to suffer any grievance anymore.
I will stay by your side forever, and when I finally become someone who can stand by your side, I’ll be able to tell you that I love you.
Furthermore, in both lives, although she had deeply felt the love Bai Qinghao had for her, he had never once told her that he loved her.
Even moments before his death, he only told her to live on well.
He was a callous and frigid man down to his bones!
He showed his love through his actions, protecting her and doting on her silently.
He was not good at expressing himself. Perhaps, he even disdained saying such things.
Each time she provoked him in the past, it would result in him restraining her dominatingly and forcefully possessing her.
The loss of freedom only caused her to grow to hate him.
To her despair, their ten years of marriage was spent walking further and further away from each other.
She would not allow this to happen again! Her body ached from his tight embrace.
In her previous life, this sensation would cause her to feel repulsed. Right now, however, she was more than willing to be here with him.
She embraced his firm body and moved her hand across his back gently. She murmured his name softly. “Bai Qinghao…”
His body stiffened.
She used to hate him, but now she was actually taking the initiative to embrace him back?
“Fang Xinxin, do you know what you’re doing?” He was shaken.
His tone concealed a hint of passion.
She pressed her face against his firm chest shyly. “No…”
