Shu Ran rarely took the initiative to reach out, but now she gently leaned her head against him, lowering her posture and trying to be as gentle and soft as possible. She patiently explained to him, "I have already married you, so in my heart, there is only you."
Shu Ran originally did not want to recall the past, wishing for it to be buried with time. However, she did not expect old matters to stir up waves again, leading to misunderstandings between them. Silence was certainly not an option.
She wondered if it was her gentle approach that finally made him stop talking. The sharpness in his gaze gradually faded, and the grip he had on her chin unconsciously loosened.
Shu Ran let out a sigh of relief and spoke softly and cautiously, "What happened between him and me was just a matter of youthful ignorance. At that time, we were confused and inexplicably entered into a relationship. After we broke up, we never contacted each other again."
She succinctly stated the facts, "My relationship with him is at most that of friends, and perhaps not even that now."
She knew that Qin Xian must have seen her standing with Wen Yihuan tonight and doing those things, which made him so angry. She acknowledged that this was her fault.
"I have no relationship with him at all; there is no reunion with a first love, no rekindled old feelings. I only love you and want to be with you."
Shu Ran had never said such clingy words before, nor had she ever taken the initiative to express her love for him.
She always thought that as long as she treated him well, he would understand certain things without needing her to say them out loud.
But today she realized that there were too many problems between them.
Not enough trust.
This was a fatal flaw.
He did not trust her enough, and she was not proactive enough with him.
Even though they were already married, for some reason, it felt like there was still a barrier between them.
Over time, this could become a long-term torment for both of them.
Shu Ran did not want to see this scene unfold.
She looked up at him from her embrace, her eyes clear and bright, seemingly shining with a light.
Why not take this opportunity to clarify everything?
"Qin Xian, I love you. You are the only one I love. If I didn't love you, I wouldn't marry you."
Qin Xian lowered his head to gaze at her, his expression momentarily pausing, a hint of light flickering in his eyes.
Shu Ran glanced at him, her tone suddenly slowing down as she continued, "Actually, I know you've always thought that I chose to marry you because of my mother's situation. I admit, at first, I thought the same."
She suddenly shook her head, the light in her eyes dimming as she lowered her head and said softly, "But Qin Xian, that's not true. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't marry anyone. If it were someone else, I would never make such a decision."
"Can you understand? I... um..."
Her red lips were suddenly sealed by someone else's warmth, breaking through all barriers as their lips met in a gentle and tender embrace, filled with an unprecedented depth of affection.
How could he not understand? She said she loved him and only him.
Even if it was because of her mother's situation that she chose to marry someone so hastily, she would only be willing to marry him.
What did that statement represent?
How could he possibly not understand?
To others, they were merely passersby; in her eyes and heart, he occupied every part of her being, leaving no room for anyone else.
What did that mean if he still couldn't comprehend?
That night, she was completely honest with him, revealing all her cards without any concealment.
With such a version of herself, how could he ever be worthy?
Shu Ran couldn't remember how long he had kissed her, only that by the end, her entire body felt numb, soft as water.
She could feel his burning desire igniting, thinking she was about to endure another passionate encounter.
But he did not.
He held her tightly, unusually, without wanting her.
He simply embraced her, saying nothing, his delicate chin gently resting on her soft hair, his warm palm lightly stroking her smooth, tender back.
Shu Ran was already very tired; his soothing presence and gentleness soon made her slowly close her eyes, sleepiness gradually overtaking her.
Just as she was about to drift into a hazy sleep, she seemed to hear his cool voice softly whispering in her ear.
"I'm sorry."
I'm sorry for scaring you, for losing my temper inexplicably.
I'm sorry for being so rough with you.
I'm sorry for not trusting you.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry... Shu Ran.
I'm sorry... if I didn't love you so much.
The sound of steady breathing filled the air; she had fallen asleep in his arms. Qin Xian held her, his eyes reflecting her peaceful sleeping face. For some reason, a strange warmth suddenly surged in his heart.
The madness, turmoil, and harshness that had been churning inside him all night suddenly came to a quiet halt at this moment, in the tranquility of her sweet sleeping expression.
His lips curved slightly into a smile, melting unconsciously in the cold winter night. He gently placed a kiss on her forehead.
Good night, Shu Ran.
I love you too.
...
The next day, what woke her up was not the warm morning sunlight, nor the delicious breakfast, and certainly not the gentle kiss from the person beside her.
Instead, it was the pain beneath her after an intense night of passion; even a slight movement sent sharp pangs through her, making her grit her teeth.
He had been too rough last night, showing no consideration for her inexperience. After barely adjusting the night before, she had to endure even more last night, to the point where Shu Ran felt like biting the person still sleeping beside her.
And in fact, she really did just that.
She slowly lifted her head and gently bit his thin lips with her small white teeth. Before she could make any further moves, Qin Xian's dark eyes suddenly opened wide, narrowing at the corners. Taking control of the situation, he held her head firmly to prevent her escape and teasingly extended his tongue to pry open her lips, delving deeper inch by inch in an endless entanglement.
The two of them had only fallen asleep around four in the morning, and when they finally woke up, it was nearly one in the afternoon.
Aunt Chen had gone to bed early last night and naturally did not notice anything unusual when Qin Xian and Shu Ran returned one after another. She had no idea what had transpired between them.
After getting up and finishing breakfast that morning, she realized that no one had come down to eat even close to ten o'clock. After waiting for two hours, the master bedroom on the second floor remained eerily quiet.
