What did you say at that time? "If I died, you'd be a widower, and remarried men are a dime a dozen!"
Gu Jiangnian couldn't stand listening to this anymore.
He reached out and pulled her clawing hand away, held it in his palm, and squeezed it neither too lightly nor too heavily, fixing his gaze on her with a cold indifference, "What? You're planning to spend your whole life with me?"
With just one sentence, Gu Jiangnian pushed back all her prepared words. His extremely indifferent query silenced Jiang Muwan.
She was in the wrong.
But she didn't want to die at someone else's hand either.
It was a no-brainer to cling to Gu Jiangnian's mighty thigh.
One mustn't simply let go when faced with the truth of 'better to lose face than to lose life'.
She pursed her lips, paused for a while, then said to Gu Jiangnian, "Anyhow, you can't ignore me."
"You really have the gall to be brazen when you're clearly in the wrong," Gu Jiangnian remarked, letting go of her hand.
