Lately, she had become obsessed with a television drama, watching it punctually every day. She used to never be interested in TV dramas, especially one as melodramatic as this…
However, even more out of character was Gu Kai, who had also become hooked on the drama, a particularly melodramatic one at that…
In the drama, the man asked the woman, "What exactly will it take for you to face your feelings, to accept me?"
Sitting beside her, Gu Kai gazed at the TV and asked softly, "Ruoruo, what exactly will it take for you to accept me?"
Shen Ruo froze, not daring to turn her head to meet his eyes.
Time passed, and she still hadn't answered him, just staring at the TV without blinking. Just when she thought she had managed to sidestep the question, a pair of strong hands grasped her shoulders, turning her around.
"Answer me," Gu Kai said, looking at her intently, his expression resolute and brooking no refusal.
