Chapter 46: Is it not obvious enough?

Nian Jiezhen was flabbergasted by the kiss Ren Shiyuan gave. It made her heart skip a bit.

She used her remaining strength to push him away. "W...why?" Why was he making things complicated for her?

A gentle smile appeared on his lips, "It's true, I am prettier than you."

Nian Jiezhen frowned. "Oh wow, I almost forgot that you're actually one narcissistic bastard."

He laughed lightly, "I'm stating the truth."

"I already know that, you don't have to tell it straight to my face!" She tried to pull her hands away from his hold but he didn't let go of them.

"Let go, Shiyuan!"

"You know Jiezhen..." He trailed off. The smile on his lips disappeared. "I don't know what to say and how to comfort you concerning the insecurities you have."

She turned her gaze away from him. She felt a pang in her chest, "I don't need you to comfort me."

"Let me be honest with you." He held her chin and made her face him. For the first time, he really looked at her.
