Chu Zheng, who had lived for so many years, had never been as happy and blessed as now, his entire heart soaked in honey, so sweet he couldn’t help but laugh.
Since the incident with Chu’s mother, Chen Jing had been more considerate of his feelings, pampering and indulging him. Chu Zheng was radiantly happy. His previously fabricated calm and gentleness completely transformed. He smiled like a village idiot all day, his temperament becoming increasingly soft, his eyes so gentle they seemed about to drip water.
All of this stemmed from the sense of security Chen Jing gave him.
Chen Jing quickly resolved the engagement matter.
Although they nitpicked Chu Zheng, they reluctantly agreed due to their daughter’s genuine fondness.
As Chu’s mother suddenly broke down crying at the dinner table, the Chu family learned the truth and changed their attitude toward Chu Zheng.
Chu Zheng didn’t hide anything, directly stating he had psychological issues, had secretly seen doctors, but it was useless and only became worse until he met Chen Jing.
Chu Zheng moved out of the Chu family home. Since that incident, Chu’s mother had been ignoring him. Upon hearing he was leaving, she didn’t even blink. Chu’s father seemed about to speak but swallowed his words, only instructing: “Come home and visit occasionally.”
Chu Zheng smiled and nodded, walking away without looking back.
In fact, he had no intention of returning. Wherever Chen Jing was in this lifetime would be his home. He wished to be close to her every second, happy just existing in the same space with her, having no thoughts of the Chu family.
Moreover, the Chu family had always been emotionally distant.
The young Chu Zheng had once despised parents who only cared about love, but after growing up and falling in love with Chen Jing, he no longer felt any disgust.
Putting himself in their shoes, he understood them well. Just like now, he wanted to be her personal accessory, wanting to accompany her everywhere. If a child suddenly appeared, he would definitely want to strangle it.
Chu Zheng moved into Chen Jing’s home, and the two lived together, quickly holding their engagement banquet.
After the engagement banquet, Chen Jing’s cousin Tang Xin indeed ran away from home and sought out Chen Jing.
