Previously she had been afraid, afraid that getting a divorce would worry her parents, so she had come up with more lies to cover up the earlier ones that she made. But now, she was afraid, afraid that once he found out the truth, he would hate her… so she didn't dare be honest with him, didn't dare apologize to him.
Qin Yinan's brow furrowed even deeper. As he helped Cheng Qingchong wipe away her tears, he kept consoling her gently. When the tears slowly dried up, she realized that he had been holding her face, and her heart started to race again. Her ears reddened, and her eyes lowered; a tear slid down her cheek following her movement.
When Qin Yinan used his thumb to wipe away that tear with a helpless sigh, he accidentally brushed against her lips, and a shock of electricity jolted through both their bodies. They both shivered in unison. Cheng Qingchong's eyes turned upward to realize that Qin Yinan's clear eyes had been looking at her.
