Chu Dazhuang widened his eyes in surprise, his heartbeat quickened, and he felt an inexplicable warmth surging in his chest. Zhen Lanlan's lips were soft and warm, and he couldn't help but respond, wrapping his arms around her waist.
After experiencing so many complex emotional entanglements, Chu Dazhuang felt that Zhen Lanlan was like a beacon in his life at this moment, bringing him light and hope.
His feelings for Zhen Lanlan grew stronger, and he wanted to cherish this emotion, both for himself and for her.
So, he pulled away from Zhen Lanlan's embrace, gazed into her eyes, and said seriously, "Lan Lan, I don't think you should do this. I also need time to deal with my own feelings. But I promise, no matter what the final outcome is, I will cherish the friendship and affection between us."
