Difference.
Indeed, that was the first time he realized the difference between him and her.
She was the most adored eldest daughter of the Lan family.
However, he was no longer the Chen family's young master whom everyone sought to please.
The twisted relationship between them dragged on for half a year.
After that, he thought that he could finally be free again, now that the Chen family had returned to how it was before.
Yet, she refused to let him go.
She should have known how much he hated being chained to something.
She would express her love for him every day.
Yet, whenever they grew intimate, her expression would always become awkward.
Does she think that I would not notice that she would gently hug him with a tolerating gaze every time after making love?
If she truly loves me, there would be no need for her to tolerate me.
She is only...protecting me out of habit ever since she was young.
