In the span of just a few breaths, he had clarified many matters, his gaze resettling on Wen Jiaren's face: such as why she brought up their marriage without having left Zanglong Mountain yet.

What was she thinking back then?
He held out his hand to her, his profound gaze tinged with a touch of heartache, "Come here."
Wen Jiaren walked toward him and, as she drew close to his waist, an arm encircled her and forcefully pulled her into his embrace. Another hand landed on her cheek, pressing her face to his chest, and he held her tightly, "Thank you, this time, for not pushing me away like before."
