Translator: 549690339
Shui Qianqian loved Rong Jin in her heart, and she had never thought of hearing such a gentle voice.
She used to think that as long as Rong Jin wasn’t so cold to her and treated her with a better attitude, it would be fine. She didn’t expect that he would treat her so gently one day.
He even said such nice words.
No, wait, he said in the future? “Rong Jin, what … What do you mean?”
“Yingluo, I’m your fiancé. We have an engagement. I’m not young anymore, almost 30. Will you marry me?”
Shui Qianqian was so stunned that she couldn’t react immediately. No matter how she tried to test Rong Jin and asked him, he didn’t agree.
However, she couldn’t help but overthink things when she heard this.
“Rong Jin, we have to be responsible for our relationship, but I hope that my future marriage will be a happy one for both of us.”
Rong Jin looked at Shui Qianqian with a pained expression and said,””Yingluo, don’t you understand? Don’t you understand my heart?”
Shui Qianqian was no longer sleepy. She took a few deep breaths and sighed.””Rong Jin, you don’t have to lie to me.”
With that, Shui Qianqian closed her eyes. She didn’t want to see or hear anything. She was afraid that she would lose her rational reaction if she was momentarily confused and intoxicated.
Her instincts told her that Rong Jin was acting abnormally. If it were any other day, he wouldn’t have said such things.
Besides, she didn’t believe that Rong Jin would reveal his true feelings to her just because of their rashness.
She did not believe it.
She had been lying to herself for years and had never received a response from Rong Jin. How could she believe him now?
She had told herself long ago that she shouldn’t be overly sentimental, so Shui Qianqian instinctively escaped. Like a tortoise, she locked herself in her protective shell.
Rong Jin looked at Shui Qianqian and knew that she wouldn’t believe him no matter what he said.
The corners of his lips curled up into a self-deprecating smile. Who could she blame? it was him. He had not treated her well in the past and did not give her enough sense of security. He did not let her build up her trust.
Rong Jin looked at Shui Qianqian’s exhausted face and didn’t dare to force her anymore. He knew that it was useless to say anything now, so he could only hug her like this.
Rong Jin hugged Shui Qianqian gently and lay down as well, covering the two of them with the blanket.
He knew that Shui Qianqian was tired and needed some sleep.
“Sleep, I’ll accompany you.”
After Rong Jin said that gently, he planted a kiss on Shui Qianqian’s forehead. It felt safe to hold her in his arms. As long as she didn’t avoid him, he would definitely make her his.
He would treat her well and make it up to her. Whatever she wanted, he would give it to her. He would present the best things to her.
Let her be happy, let her laugh.
At this moment, Rong Jin only wanted to dote on Shui Qianqian.
Although he knew it was a little late, it wasn’t too late. He discovered the truth.
Thinking of everything in the past, Rong Jin clutched his heart. It hurt badly, but fortunately, Wanwan was still by his side and in his arms.
He didn’t dare to think about other things, but if she had been expelled from Country M that year, if she had died in a foreign country, Rong Jin wouldn’t have been able to take it. Fortunately, she was still in his arms.
“Yingluo, it was my fault in the past. I will make you trust me.”
Shui Qianqian’s heart ached when she heard these words. It would be a lie to say that she wasn’t moved, but she had been sad too many times. Forgive her cowardice, but she didn’t dare to do it again. She instinctively hid in her shell to protect herself.
