Pei Nianchen held her hand tighter, wishing to meld it into his palm, "Then let's be together, live well together."
Yes, together, he would give her all his best love, letting the sweet memories of those sixteen years extend beautifully.
Gu Jiayin smiled slightly, withdrew her hand, and narrated calmly, "Brother Nianchen, those sixteen years were a romantic dream, seven years of separation, the dream has ended, and it's time to wake up."
Pei Nianchen suddenly restrained all his expressions, staring at her intensely, "Jiayin..."
Why must she be so ruthless and determined?
Perhaps the tears she shed earlier released the emotions she had suppressed all night, and now Gu Jiayin seemed increasingly calm, her resolve set, even her tone was level, "Brother Nianchen, either we're family, or we go our separate ways. Stop forcing me."
"Even if I die?"
"Even if you die, nothing will change."
The space suddenly turned silent, their eyes fixed on each other, sight locked in stalemate.
