Upon hearing Shen Lan's words, Cheng Yanqing's face instantly darkened.
Shen Lan never intended to stay with him till death do they part.
At first...
She didn't want to think about the past.
Cheng Yanqing became very serious, "Shen Lan, how many times do I have to say it? Do you want us to always interact in this way?"
Arguing over a single word or a minor matter, always embracing negativity.
Cheng Yanqing didn't like this.
Shen Lan understood his preferences well. Cheng Yanqing's ideal woman was one who would go along with his wishes, one who would rely on him.
Shen Lan also yearned to lean on someone, but her childhood molded her into someone who could only rely on herself, one who could stand firm like a tree.
Shen Lan fell silent, but the silence between them couldn't last forever.
