Now that he was drunk, Lu An found it even harder to suppress his primal urges, especially the longing to kiss Jin Nian. He leaned toward her but stopped. Instead, he flattened Jin Nian's bangs and said. "Jin Nian," he began almost casually, interspaced by the occasional hiccup, "I'll always want you, even if no one else does. I'll always treat you well; you know that, don't you?"
Jin Nian rolled her eyes. "I wouldn't come crawling to you, even if no one wants to be with me. You're annoying, Lu An." She hated how Lu An seemed to treat relationships like a joke. Who could have known she would end up marrying him in the future?
Jin Nian still had some reservations, so she deliberately kept a distance from Lu An. However, judging from their reactions earlier, Teacher Tan and Old Jin should know they were together. There probably was not any real need for her to pretend otherwise. Besides, they were legally married.
