Chapter 1942 - 1943: I Forgot
Chapter 1942: Chapter 1943: I Forgot
Rong Yan remained silent.
But she felt a sense of relief.
How coincidental, she thought the same!
Li Shengxiao feared that she might overthink, so as they walked, he continued, "There’s another reason."
Rong Yan glanced over, "What other reason?"
He curled his lips, and his handsome, sculpted face became increasingly captivating, "Some things I can’t say, but Sir Lin and Mrs. Jiang can!"
Some things I can’t say, but Sir Lin and Mrs. Jiang can.
Rong Yan stopped in her tracks, looked at him in surprise, "You already knew what Mrs. Jiang wanted to say?"
She thought for a moment and realized she had underestimated him, "Wait! Did you know from the phone call last night that besides inviting us, they also invited Sir Lin? You knew early on what they wanted to do and just went along with it!"
Li Shengxiao tapped her forehead and smiled brightly, his tall, erect figure like a firm pine, "Sir Lin and Mrs. Jiang have finally found you, it’s normal for them to want to speak up for you. We’ve been married for two years; I indeed owe you a wedding."
The spot on Rong Yan’s forehead that was touched felt hot, and her face blushed from forehead to cheeks. She bit her lip and whispered, "Not having a wedding wasn’t your idea, I suggested keeping the marriage secret. Mrs. Jiang seems to blame the decision to keep our marriage hidden on you..." Isn’t he worried?
In the blink of an eye, they reached the car door. Li Shengxiao took out the car keys, unlocked the car, and opened the passenger door.
After she got in, he helped her fasten the seatbelt.
Then he walked around to the driver’s seat, opened the door, and sat inside.
After settling in and fastening his seatbelt, he confidently answered Rong Yan’s earlier question, "The person I married is you, no one else matters. What others, apart from you, think of me is irrelevant!"
Casual and assured tone.
Hearing this, Rong Yan felt both amused and annoyed, unsure how to respond to him.
She struggled for a while before blurting out, "Cui Jiangjing once said you have a solitary personality, with slight agoraphobia. Now I find, you’re not agoraphobic; you’re... obsessive, obsessive-compulsive!"
He’s not just obsessive, but his thinking is direct, overly direct! As if he only considers one thing when making decisions—its impact on her.
For decisions that don’t affect her, he acts highly decisively.
Moreover, she discovered the most awkward thing—he seems to have figured her out completely! Her thoughts, emotions, all seem to be under his control.
Arguably, having such a person around should make her vigilant!
But embarrassingly, she’s not!
She trusts him completely, as if she’s never doubted him.
She heard the words Mrs. Jiang said at the dining table too.
Li Shengxiao’s emotions towards her seem like a double-edged sword to any rational person; when feelings are good, he’s her impenetrable armor. But with negative emotions, he might be the sword that destroys her. Yet somehow, she believes that he would never hurt her!
Rong Yan herself is puzzled about where this confidence comes from, yet she just has it!
Li Shengxiao partially closed his eyes, his long legs bent in the car, leaning against the seat, suddenly silent for a while, then looked at her, "What do you think about what Mrs. Jiang previously said?"
"Huh? What words?" Rong Yan blinked innocently, feigning ignorance, "I forgot."
Her cunning look, how could she possibly have forgotten.
