Chapter 462 - 441: One More Update
Zheng Congyuan embraced the person in front of him, unwilling to think about those matters, not wanting to consider anything. Only now did he feel just how frail the girl in his arms was, and in an instant he thought of how anxious she had been these days.
"Do you not want me anymore?" Zheng Nianru suddenly felt at peace, and by the time she asked this question, she already had her answer.
Zheng Congyuan’s heart suddenly hurt so much that he couldn’t breathe. He didn’t answer but just held the girl in his arms even tighter, recklessly as if trying to exert all his strength.
Zheng Nianru began to feel some pain, and eventually, it seemed as if all her muscles and bones were being crushed, and she, too, couldn’t breathe. The woman didn’t struggle but simply closed her eyes. This was fine, too; it would be fine even if she died. At least then she wouldn’t have to think about anything anymore.
"How could I not want you," Zheng Congyuan said, suppressing his emotions to the extreme, slowly opening his mouth, breathing in the faint scent of the woman’s body—how could he possibly not want her.
The next moment, Zheng Congyuan felt something was amiss and loosened his embrace slightly, only then, in his panic, realizing his own strength. He quickly let go, and Zheng Nianru’s face had already turned pale, her breath weak. Zheng Congyuan immediately panicked.
"I’m fine," Zheng Nianru said, slightly opening her eyes, and the next moment she was lively again. Though she had felt uncomfortable just now, she definitely heard Zheng Congyuan’s words clearly.
"You said it, no matter what happens, you will not abandon me," Zheng Nianru quickly said, cunningly adding on, no matter what happens.
Zheng Congyuan was amused by Zheng Nianru’s successful little trick, and stretched out his hand as usual to poke the forehead of the girl in front of him. As his hand approached her, he instead gently stroked the young girl’s fine black hair, touching the corner of her forehead tenderly.
