Chapter 1191 - 1188: Revival of Love 1

He pushed the examination report aside, saying indifferently, "I knew it long ago."

She was furious: "Since you knew it already, why are you saying these sarcastic things? Are you playing with me?"

He quickly pulled her, and she fell into his arms, unable to stop herself.

She instinctively reached out to put distance between them, breathing rapidly, on high alert: "What do you want?"

He stared at her.

The distance between them was so close.

Her long eyelashes almost touched his face.

Her face flushed with anger, lips red like peach blossoms because of the wine, the faint fragrance of familiarity from being apart for too long... Even though they had been together constantly since their reunion, they were hardly separated... but, after all, not intimate.

The spontaneous joy and intimacy she felt when she pushed open the door and saw him on New Year’s Eve in Boston were long gone... Maybe, because the distance was too far, she had long forgotten how to express intimacy.

And he, no matter how hard he tried, always kept the distance—just like her inadvertent avoidance and perfunctory attitude. So much so that no matter how hard he tried these days, no matter what he did to make up for it, it wasn’t enough to eliminate this distance.

But at this moment, she was slightly intoxicated, falling into his arms, her big black eyes shining almost with colorful light.

"Xixi..."

His voice was hoarse, imbued with an unstoppable heat.

He had been suppressing for so very long and finally couldn’t bear it anymore.

"Xixi..."

That was the body language of a man.

A prelude to the intimacy they had built over the years... Even though they had been apart for so long, it wasn’t unfamiliar to her...just frightening...

Suddenly, she pushed him hard.

But his large hand restrained her, making sure she couldn’t escape his embrace once more.

"Xixi... Xixi... Can’t we just try now to see if we can have a child?"

"..."

"Xixi... Don’t be afraid... We can do it... Trust me..."

Suddenly, she forgot why she had been angry earlier, as his strong embrace left her breathless... It was so, so hot.

Just like many nights, waking up in a strange city, often filled with regret and melancholy: realizing that the warmth and embrace just passed were but an illusion.

So now, she was particularly confused.

"Xixi... Xixi... Let’s get married right away..."

Just as his lips touched her, she suddenly jumped up in shock.

His face was full of smiles, looking at her with extreme tenderness.

She was furious: "What do you mean? Don’t you understand what I’m saying? Have you been playing with me all this time?"

He replied casually, "You mean that?"

"Why are you pretending?" she fumed, "Didn’t you already propose to me because you saw this examination report and then suddenly backed out? Do you think I’m a fool?"

He was unconcerned: "Wasn’t it you who said you just started at South Country University, that you couldn’t handle studying and thinking about having children at the same time, that the stress was too much? I saw that report, and to avoid adding too much pressure on you, I didn’t push for marriage. How is that wrong?"

She spat.

"Nonsense, that’s all nonsense!"

He was puzzled: "How is that nonsense?"

"Clearly, you were busy competing with them at the time, and completely had no mind for marriage..."
