Chapter 361 - 368 Ye Yunzhu’s Heartache
"But that day we didn’t really have a relationship, so you don’t have to be responsible for me; you don’t have to marry me for real."
Li Yifei placed his hand on Xu Yingying’s leg, gently rubbing it as he said, "I won’t deny that if we hadn’t done that that day, I wouldn’t still be maintaining this marriage with you."
Xu Yingying’s face immediately turned somewhat unpleasant.
"But this isn’t about our feelings; it’s just that my feelings weren’t settled, and there’s still Ye Yunzhu, Su Yiyi — these are issues I can’t avoid. To become your husband, I need to maintain a husband’s mindset, but it was indeed too hasty. I need some time."
"Do you mean that you used to... like me?" Xu Yingying asked nervously, looking nothing like a boss and more like a little girl afraid of losing something.
"I didn’t realize it before. I thought we were just friends, not truly in love. But after opening my heart and being with you yesterday, I felt that I do really like you. When this feeling developed, I’ve no idea; I just never faced it directly."
Xu Yingying’s heart felt sweet as she gripped Li Yifei’s hand.
Li Yifei, in turn, gripped Xu Yingying’s hand and said, "So after we really became husband and wife this time, I don’t regret it at all. My only feeling is that it was too rushed, and I didn’t handle my relationships well, which makes me feel a bit sorry for you."
Xu Yingying immediately said, "It’s okay; I’m not in a hurry. I know you’re a person who values feelings, and if you decisively cut ties with them immediately for me, it would be too heartless."
Li Yifei flashed a radiant smile and said, "Your words set my mind at ease."
