My Wife Came From A Thousand Years Ago

Chapter 128: Really? I don’t believe it

"So, you were explaining to me earlier?"

"Yes."

"This is what they call 'overthinking'?"

"Maybe..."

Xu Qing sorted through his thoughts, feeling a newfound clarity. He lowered the hand pressing against his forehead, contemplated briefly, and asked, "When I explained earlier why I was reluctant, did you feel a bit happier?"

"...Yes," Jiang He admitted reluctantly. Although she trusted him, his explanation did bring some happiness.

"Then my concern wasn’t misplaced."

Xu Qing felt a sense of relief, as if defusing a hidden mine. If he hadn’t realized this, continuing with their usual dynamic would have led to problems sooner or later. She wasn’t a pet, and Jiang He couldn’t be treated like one.
