Seeing her cry, Huo Jinyan’s eyes turned red.
Tears rolled down his cheeks.
The drunk Lu Ning seemed to be shocked.
She looked at him quietly, her sparkling eyes unblinking.
In the end, she reached out to gently wipe his tears and said gently, “Don’t cry.”
Huo Jinyan looked at her. Her every expression, her every action, and her every emotion—they all seemed to affect him.
Her hot fingers touched his skin, and Huo Jinyan raised his hand to hold her fingertips.
Initially, he only held it gently, but in the end, he slowly tightened his grip.
He brought her hand to his lips and touched them gently.
A cold kiss landed on Lu Nings hand. She suddenly trembled and seemed to have sobered up a little.
Huo Jinyan raised his hand to caress her hair and coaxed her gently, “Let’s go home.’
Lu Ning did not speak or move. She just looked at him in a daze.
Huo Jinyan picked her up and walked out.
The journey home was quite quiet, but the drunk Lu Ning was really like a child. She was curious about everything and kept touching this and that, and when she broke something, she even looked at Huo Jinyan pitifully.
Huo Jinyan stopped the car several times to comfort her, who was about to cry.
He was very patient every time.
Perhaps his patience gave Lu Ning a sense of security.
In the end, Lu Ning fell asleep while clutching his jacket.
At the entrance to the inner streets, Huo Jinyan stopped the car to look at Lu Ning, who was lying in the backseat.
Her face was still red, and her eyelashes fluttered. She was sleeping somewhat uneasily.
Huo Jinyan got out of the car, opened the door, and went to the backseat.
He wanted to wake her up, but before he could, he was stopped.
“Ningning, Ningning, let’s go home.”
His voice was soft and gentle.
Lu Ning frowned. Following his voice, she reached out and grabbed the corner of his shirt tightly.
Huo Jinyan could not bear to break from her grip, so he got into the car helplessly and closed the door.
As soon as he sat down, Lu Ning moved over while holding the corner of his shirt.
With her head on Huo Jinyan’s lap, she seemed to have found someplace comfortable, and fell asleep peacefully.
Huo Jinyan was stunned for a moment, then he smiled. He raised his hand and gently combed her messy hair.
His hand was light and gentle, as he was afraid of disturbing her sweet dreams.
His fingers kept touching her soft cheek.
Huo Jinyan looked at her side—she appeared quiet, gentle, and adorable.
The question she asked while drunk kept replaying in his mind.
‘Do you not want me anymore?
That’s not true at all.
But can I possibly be with you?
Am I allowed to?
Can I afford to?
There were undercurrents around him which even he could not handle; countless dangers which he could not get rid of.
None of this would be the life she liked.
Would she want to be with a person who’s like that?
Huo Jinyan was afraid that he would not be able to protect her well and give her the life she wanted.
His life had been terrible. It was as if he only had a glimmer of hope from the moment he met her.
However, he did not want Lu Nings luminance to be entrapped by his darkness.
He could not be unscrupulous and take her into his arms without considering anything.
He was afraid. He was afraid that after he had made his preparations, Lu Ning
would back down and not want him anymore. How could he bear such a life?
If the final outcome was not possible, he might as well never say it out loud and never yearn for it. That way, he would feel better…
However, he was unwilling to let go just like that. Just thinking that she might become someone else’s wife in the future made him feel so uncomfortable.
He was so jealous that he was about to go crazy.
But can I really be with her… ?
