"Mu'er...you promised to marry me?"
The man who was hugging Qiao Muer from behind had a low, cold voice with a hint of hoarseness.
He thought that his proposal would be rejected, and he also knew that what he did and what he said in front of his family and elders hurt Mu'er's heart.
At first, I was prepared to stay away and didn't dare to get close.
After seeing her again, I couldn't help but want to keep her by my side.
Yue Zheng thought he could control all his emotions, but found that the only thing he could no longer control was his longing for Qiao Muer.
He owed it himself, and he will make up for it himself.
If Mu'er refused to agree to his request again and again, it was natural. At worst, he would just pester her.
However, Qiao Muer's answer made Yue Zheng rarely feel dazed for a moment.
Mu'er, she didn't deliberately embarrass him, she agreed...
"No." However, Qiao Muer's soft voice came, saying unambiguously, "Listen carefully, I said I agree to date you and try it out, which means trying to date you, and it's different from agreeing to marry you."
Yue Zheng's blue eyes turned slightly cold, and he turned the little woman who was facing away from him.
The man's big hands clasped her waist, trapping her between his arms and the sofa.
"Mu'er, you agreed to date, aren't you aiming for marriage?"
Women are emotional and full of longing for the future.
Even Yue Zheng, who was not very interested in other women, realized after studying hard to win back Qiao Muer that most women like relationships with the premise of marriage.
This is a formal relationship and also a form of respect.
Qiao Muer let Yue Zheng hold her, raised her fair and rosy little face, raised her almond-shaped eyes slightly, and faintly revealed the unique phoenix eyes of the Qiao family.
"Who says you have to get married if you're dating? You know my dad, he was panicked at first. I'm his daughter, and I was panicked just like him. Dating is dating, not marriage. If it's right for you, then you stay together. If it's not, then you separate. That's it."
The eldest daughter of the Qiao family has been a clever and eccentric girl since she was young. If she had liked Yue Zheng at the beginning, she would not have been as obedient as a little rabbit in front of him.
Over the years, she has become more independent and self-reliant.
But isn’t it also a process of finding oneself
When you love someone, you can indulge in it, but if you don’t love them enough, you have to pull away.
Especially, when the other person doesn't love you and is not worthy of your love, you must be clean and decisive.
Only in this way can you love yourself.
This is the lesson that Qiao Muer learned after experiencing the past, and it was also taught to her by Yue Zheng.
"You mean, you agreed to date me, but we may not get married?" Yue Zheng narrowed his eyes, his deep blue eyes shone with a cold light.
He has always been in control of everything, and this is the first time that someone has outmaneuvered him.
Yue Zheng, who rarely showed deep affection, felt a little empty inside.
"Yes... If you think I don't give face to you, the second young master of the Lu family, you can take back what you just said. You and I will continue to live in peace. Let's return to the relationship of colleagues, or, the relationship of old friends."
Qiao Muer knew that with Yue Zheng's arrogant temper, these words would probably anger him as soon as they were spoken.
But she doesn't want to be the little white rabbit she used to be.
Let him be angry if he wants, it doesn’t matter even if he hates her from now on.
"Don't even think about—"
However, as soon as Qiao Muer finished speaking, the man holding her tightened his hands around her waist.
Yue Zheng lifted her chin with one hand and said fiercely to Qiao Muer's dark and bright almond eyes: "Even if it's just a date, I won't let you quit. Muer... once you put on this ring, you will never take it off again. If you don't want to marry me, then we can just date... the ring is a token of our love." (To be continued)
