บท 171: 171 Strangle in the cradle

There seemed to be a thousand words in Zhuang Liu's eyes, but in the end, he only replied with one sentence, "Maybe you don't remember me but I've been looking at you and hoping that God would send you to me."

Tan Rou didn't understand. When had Zhuang Liu seen her? Could it be that he still had a crush on her?

 How could this be possible?

She thought about how the two of them had an engagement before she left the Tan family. The engagement was cancelled the moment Tan Jing returned to the Tan family. Could it be that Zhuang Liu had liked her since then?

Tan Rou looked at Zhuang Liu in confusion.

 Zhuang Liu didn't say anything more. He moved his palm away from Tan Rou's head and looked down at his legs. "Not only did you come to my side, but you also treated my illness. This is something I never would have thought of in the past. I'm afraid that I might burden you."
