Should I agree, or should I not?
A sense of panic uncontrollably welled up deep within my eyes!
My pitiful heart throbbed violently—thump——thump——thump—each beat stronger than the one before.
Chenxing bit her lip, staring intently at him for quite a while. At that mont, it seed like an emotion called blossoming love was starting to sprout in her heart.
Which young girl wouldn’t be moved in front of such a man?
A girl in the spring of her youth, it is only natural to develop feelings, she only lacks so courage.
No infatuation, no infatuation, how can one really not develop feelings?
Just imagine a stunning man, a man like a king admired by all in their hearts, gazing intensely at you, telling you such words with an overwhelmingly assertive posture, wouldn’t you develop feelings too?
She was nineteen that year—dreaming age—full of illusions and curiosity for love, full of the desire to explore. How was it possible not to develop feelings?
Just that, within these stirred feelings, too many other problems that couldn’t be ignored were mixed.
Like that hurdle in her heart.
And other things...
"We’re still in our bet now. We agreed that if you win, I’ll stay. If I win, I’ll support myself and my family," she reminded.
A trace of disappointnt flashed in Gu Shaocheng’s eyes; however, he masked it and said, "So what?"
"Huh?"
"Your answer!" Gu Shaocheng spoke clearly.
So, she still refuses to stay by my side, still doesn’t reveal their true feelings? Still refuses to admit that she likes ?
"Does Gu Shaocheng lack charm to the point of using such a cheap tactic as betting to keep you by my side?" he sighed with a tired look on his face. "Chenxing, what I want is your willing heart, do you understand?!"
"If coercion was an option, I could do whatever I want. Like before, if you are not cooperative, I can scare and coerce you into not opposing . But, what’s the point of that?"
"That would just be lawlessness under absolute power!"
If it had to be like that, why would he put such effort?
As Gu Shaocheng, he had countless ways to make a woman stay by his side. A little punishnt could make her fearfully submissive to him. However, what would be the point?
If her body stayed but her heart was not with him, it would feel all forced! It would only strike him as a failure, make him feel self-mocking. He, Gu Shaocheng, could not capture one’s heart sincerely, resorting to such clumsily disastrous, even despicable ans!
Such a proud man like Gu Shaocheng, has truly opened his heart to a woman. He disdains such tactics.
He wanted her to stay willingly by his side, so that even if others tried to drive her away, they wouldn’t be able to!
That is the genuine ability!
And that is the true aning of his love for her!
With love, one learns to lower one’s stance, bow down, respect, comprehend things that one previously didn’t understand.
Yes, he was always lowering his head to her. Couldn’t she see it?
He just hoped that when a person is humble enough to the dust, they could germinate and bloom like a flower that captivates the city.
