"Jinxiu, I will not let you marry." Chu Nanfeng promised solemnly, but Su Jinxiu in his arms just kept shaking her head.
"Don't worry, if you run away from marriage, no matter if you are the Duke of Zhenguo or the Queen, you can bear the consequences. When the time is right, we can return to the capital."
"No, really not, Feng Lang, I dare not, I..." Su Jinxiu did not expect that Chu Nanfeng, who was usually gentle and easy to talk to, would be so persistent. She racked her brains to think of an excuse, but there was no reason that could make Chu Nanfeng give up.
"Jinxiu, could you have forgotten our past? I brought all the letters we wrote over the past few years with me. Have you forgotten the promises you made to me?"
Chu Nanfeng felt sorry for Su Jinxiu, so he racked his brains, hoping that Su Jinxiu would listen to him.
A big part of the reason why he mustered up the courage to ignore his family and follow A'man to Da Zhou was because of the letter Su Jinxiu wrote to him.
Every word is sincere and every sentence is full of affection. How could he bear to let down such deep love
Chu Nanfeng was only concerned with getting Su Jinxiu to remember the good times between them, but he didn't notice that when she heard him talking about the letter, a flash of panic appeared in Su Jinxiu's eyes.
"Feng Lang, what did you say? Did you take all those letters with you?"
Su Jinxiu tried hard to hide her nervousness and asked in a deliberately soft voice.
"That's your love for me. It's my life. I always carry it with me."
Chu Nanfeng was naturally happy to express his feelings to Su Jinxiu, but he didn't expect that after hearing his answer, Su Jinxiu's face suddenly changed and she said viciously: "Why do you want to carry it with you? Shouldn't these things be kept in the Zhenguo Mansion?"
"I said, this is my life, it's your love for me, and I will carry it with me forever." Chu Nanfeng promised Su Jinxiu very seriously. Seeing Su Jinxiu's excited expression, Chu Nanfeng was sure that Su Jinxiu was moved after knowing what he had done.
"Didn't you say before that you kept all these letters in your study? How did you carry them with you? You were lying to me, right? Why did you do this? You..."
Su Jinxiu was already trying hard to hide her emotions, but the matter was of such a serious nature that she couldn't help herself.
"I treasure all your things. Every letter has your handwriting and your friendship on it. How could I leave them in my study when I'm away from home?"
Chu Nanfeng was still affectionate. Of course, he was a little confused. He didn't understand why Jinxiu should be moved by what he did.
"Jinxiu, I care about you so much, you should be happy, why are you..." Chu Nanfeng didn't finish his words. At this moment, Su Jinxiu looked flustered and confused, with a fierce look in her eyes. He had never seen Su Jinxiu like this before.
"Or, are you hiding something from me?" Looking at Su Jinxiu's constant dodging, Chu Nanfeng suddenly thought of A'man's words.
It seems like everything has become weird.
When Su Jinxiu heard Chu Nanfeng's question, she felt as if a bucket of cold water was poured down her heart. She looked at Chu Nanfeng, a mist gathered in her eyes, and she choked up and said, "Feng Lang, I just think that if you do this, if people find out, it will ruin my reputation."
For unmarried men and women to have private sex is nothing for men, but for women, it is fatal.
"I'm just worried that my reputation will be damaged, I..." Su Jinxiu hesitated, her eyes full of grievance.
"I was inconsiderate. I shouldn't have kept these things on me. I will dispose of them properly when I get back."
"What are you going to do with it, Feng Lang? Are you going to take it all the way back to Bei'an? If Feng Lang is trustworthy, give the things to me. I will keep them safe together with the one you wrote to me." Su Jinxiu suggested softly, and Chu Nanfeng nodded involuntarily.
I have to admit that Su Jinxiu's suggestion is much better than what I could think of.
