Xu Cheng’an waited anxiously, unable to bear it, and raised his head: “We’ve already slept together. Don’t you want to take responsibility?”
His entire face turned pale when he said this.
“Of course I’ll take responsibility,” Chen Jing said. “I just feel things are moving too fast. Have you understood me and my family?”
Chen Jing was still a bit traumatized by previous plot twists. Even if that system-like entity said the main task was to make the male lead happy, they never said she could just randomly follow the plot!
Chen Jing felt it was better to take things slow.
However, unexpectedly, just as she made this decision, that cold electronic voice spoke again— [From now on, the plot of this text will be entirely decided by the original author. As long as it’s not too outrageous, everything is allowed.]
After she finished speaking, Xu Cheng’an fell silent, resting his head on her shoulder, his gaze vacant and staring at a point in nothingness, feeling suffocated.
Shen Ran’s words had extinguished all of his expectations.
If matching social status was a prerequisite for marrying Shen Ran, no matter how hard he tried, he would never achieve his goal.
With such a gap before his eyes, what could he do?
Was Shen Ran deliberately reminding him that she would never marry him in this lifetime?
No, he would not allow such a thing to happen.
This lifetime, next lifetime, the lifetime after next, he would never leave her!
His arm around her waist suddenly tightened. Xu Cheng’an hugged her fiercely, like a child lacking a sense of security.
The shoulder he was resting on was wet—he was crying again.
Chen Jing pushed him, her tone becoming serious: “Xu Cheng’an.”
Xu Cheng’an’s breathing slowed for a moment, silent.
“Are you sure you want to cry while hugging me here all day?”
“Chen Jing said: ‘My leg is going numb.’
Xu Cheng’an sniffled, using both arms to lift her in a child-carrying position and walked silently to the bedroom.
Xu Cheng’an placed her in the bed, immediately lying down next to her, curling up insecurely beside her, his voice hoarse: ‘Hold me.’
Chen Jing reached out and embraced him.
Xu Cheng’an’s anxious heart finally felt somewhat comforted, closing his eyes to sleep.
