"We'll be spending almost three years together, and I've never wanted to hide my feelings. But upon reflection, affection can't be forced, so I think we can maintain a relaxed relationship. You can consider me a friend, or anything really, I'm someone you can trust," Mu Xingye said softly.
Xia Pengpeng, hearing him say this, didn't know how to respond.
Hancheng had confessed to her as well, so why didn't she feel as conflicted?
Could it be because of the three-year agreement?
"Like Tang Jun with you, like Han Jisen with you. Or even how you and Qiao Yucong get along is fine. Just don't reject everything I do for you. If you don't like it, I promise there will be no physical contact," he continued.
Mu Xingye had laid it all out, and Xia Pengpeng felt she might be overreacting.
"Actually, I'm really fine, thank you for being so good to me," she said.
"No need to thank me," Mu Xingye leaned back in his chair, appearing completely at ease.
He knew she couldn't escape!
