บท 235: Promise

Jiang Xue looked around and saw no one was paying attention to them, so she reached out and hugged Xiang Cheng. Softly, she said, "Brother Cheng, I'm yours. I'll never betray you. Don't worry. I'm not like Shen Xi, who does not hold you in her heart. I won't allow anyone to touch me but you.

Xiang Cheng's heart melted. Shen Xi was beautiful and was everything he wanted in a woman; his wife, however, ought to be gentle, considerate, and clean, someone like Jiang Xue.

Xiang Cheng returned Jiang Xue's hug. Gratified and infinitely pleased, he said, "Xue'er, I believe you. I'm happy you're willing to entrust yourself to me. Trust me; I'll treat you well."

Jiang Xue was quite satisfied with Xiang Cheng's proclamation. She was as happy as a clam, oozing with a sense of fulfillment.
