Chapter 672 - 673: Don’t Regret It
"Big Brother Song..." Shui Qingyue approached Song Xiaodong, clenched her fists, then bit her lips and whispered, "Can you take care of me... for a lifetime?"
Song Xiaodong smiled slightly and said, "If you are willing, I can!"
Shui Qingyue’s eyes suddenly reddened, and tears fell as she choked up and said, "But... I’m afraid they will bully me."
Song Xiaodong sighed softly, understanding how much inner turmoil Shui Qingyue had to endure to make such a decision.
He stood up, placed his hands on Shui Qingyue’s shoulders, slightly drew her into his embrace, and Shui Qingyue collapsed into his arms, beginning to sob softly.
"Qingyue, the decision doesn’t need to be made so soon. You feel that you have no other choice, so you are compelled to follow me out of desperation, not true love. I promise you, what I’m showing now is also a form of responsibility, not love either."
Shui Qingyue looked up with eyes full of panic and stammered, "You... you don’t want me either?"
Song Xiaodong gently wiped the tears from Shui Qingyue’s face and said softly, "It’s not that I don’t want you, but if you are with me, I want it to be without any burden in your heart, genuinely love me, and then be with me."
Shui Qingyue met Song Xiaodong’s gaze. The panicked look on her face slowly faded away, replaced by a sweet smile as she quietly said, "Big Brother Song, I suddenly understand why they all want to be with you."
Song Xiaodong smiled slightly and said, "That’s good. Go get changed. I might still have some willpower, but it’s not that strong. Otherwise, in a moment, I might turn into a beast, and if I do something to you then, that wouldn’t be good."
Shui Qingyue exclaimed and hurriedly pushed Song Xiaodong away, picked up her clothes, and quickly walked to the bathroom door, but then she suddenly stopped, turned her head to look at Song Xiaodong, and said, "Are you really letting me change now, with no regrets?"
The smile on Song Xiaodong’s face brightened as he said, "Now I’m starting to regret it a bit."
