Chapter 943: Her Strength 6
"Bro, you couldn’t possibly still not understand my feelings for you, right?" He Zhilan saw He Teng frowning and seriously contemplating, so she put down her chopsticks and began to speak, "Bro, when I say I like you, I love you, it’s you as a person that I love. Since I love you, it naturally includes everything about you. Although I prefer the you now compared to the you from before, it does not mean that I didn’t like the you from before." He Zhilan spoke earnestly. She moved her chair closer to He Teng, then leaned her head on his shoulder, saying, "I know you’ve always been somewhat aloof by nature. These days, you’re worried I would feel muddled, so you changed a lot for me, keeping me company and entertaining me, hoping to make me happy. I enjoy this lifestyle, but I also liked our life before. That was the real you, and I am really glad that you’ve changed so much for me."
He Zhilan even knew that He Teng blamed himself for her recent miscarriage, thinking it was because he wasn’t careful enough, didn’t take good care of her, that such accidents occurred.
So, after coming back, for anything concerning her, He Teng almost always wanted to do it himself, to keep everything firmly in mind.
Seeing He Zhilan’s face without a trace of disguise, openly meeting his gaze, only then did He Teng cast away the doubts in his heart.
He had to admit, he was worried that his past actions, to He Zhilan, were all bad—he especially feared that after being hurt, He Zhilan would think it was his fault, and then, whenever she thought of him, all she would recall was how he wasn’t good to her.
But being taciturn and having a cold nature are inherent. Even though He Teng had been trying to change during this time, it was merely him talking more.
The next morning, He Zhilan went to work in the city. At this time, there was still no sign of warmth from the weather, and He Zhilan was still bundled up tightly when she went to the office, which often led to laughter from others.
