Chapter 447: I’ve Crossed the Line
"Tired, my foot! Can’t you see that I’m upset with you?" Tong Yao glared at him, "It seems like you are usually calm and smart, but why are you now like a block of wood, unable to understand what I’m feeling?"
She has lived two lives and it’s her first time being in love in both. Even though she’s relatively young and has watched plenty of romance, Idol dramas, and palace dramas, those tricks that work in dramas don’t necessarily work in reality. She found herself immersed in her own struggles.
And to make things worse, she had met a man who was as stubborn as if his mouth had been sealed with super glue. What could she do to cope?
Behind her calm facade, she was struggling each day, turning things over and over in her mind endlessly.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Tong Yao punched Si Chen in the chest out of frustration, only to be pulled into his arms.
Si Chen’s chin rested on Tong Yao’s shoulder, lightly patting her back to soothe her emotions. After a while, he finally said, "I’m sorry, it’s Because I have to be apart from you for five years, I’ve lost my bearings."
Si Chen swallowed hard before continuing, "Yaoyao, I also struggled all night considering whether to tell you everything and ask you to wait for me for five years. I wanted to speak up, but I was afraid you wouldn’t accept such a selfish me, afraid you’d reject me. If that were the case, how could I endure the next five years?"
Without her, every day was a torment, wasn’t it?
