Capítulo 200: I’m afraid of what comes with marriage

Xiu Mei stared at him unbelievably as if trying to grasp what he said just now as her face drained of color, leaving her pale and struggling for breath. If Jianyu has asked this question seven years back to Alice, by now she might have jumped into his arms and kissed him, chanting yes yes yes repetitively. However she is not Alice but Xiu Mei, there are fragments of past that she is still carrying with her.

"J-Jianyu… I… Let's sleep. I'm feeling tired" she tried to get off his lap but he didn't allow her to do so and held her firmly. This was not the reaction he had expected from her.

"No. You are not feeling tired but trying to avoid the topic." His voice was firm and little cold as he continued to look into her eyes, while she desperately tries to avert his gaze.
