After sending the couple off, Lin Cheng lay on the sofa, looking utterly dejected, feeling utterly embarrassed today.
"What's wrong? Why so down?
Your parents are just worried about you, checking out how I am, what my conditions are, they're thinking about you, afraid you'll be at a disadvantage and suffer in the future," Wang Xuan comforted her.
Lin Cheng hugged Wang Xuan's waist, her face resting against his chest, and said, "I now understand why you didn't pursue me before. If half a year ago you faced such scrutiny from my parents, you'd definitely feel humiliated."
What were Wang Xuan's conditions half a year ago? He didn't have any, a bachelor, fed himself, not worried about a family, no car, no house, no savings.
"A man's pride, sometimes it's very important, sometimes it doesn't mean much. Missing you would have been the real regret, but I couldn't let go before," Wang Xuan said, stroking Lin Cheng's hair.
