Xu Musen was truly stunned at this mont.
He had not expected that this haughty and sensitive young lady would actually say it out loud, and in such a manner.
Xu Musen looked at her reddening eyes; she now resembled Yao Mingyue from before, both marked by the sa tension and pathological fear of losing their beloved.
Xu Musen silently watched her, then glanced at the cake in his hand, the sll of alcohol from Zhu Yulan's breath told him all he needed to know.
There was definitely sothing added to this birthday cake, perhaps alcohol or sothing similar that could incite impulses.
In any case, Zhu Yulan, at this mont, had finally gathered the courage to express the words she had long suppressed in her heart.
But Xu Musen had yet to co back to his senses.
Zhu Yulan, who had not received an answer, trembled even more now; such is human nature, when all emotions are released and there is no imdiate feedback, the heart quickly consus itself.
Xu Musen only felt the girl's domineering presence wither instantly, and then, he felt a gentle drop of liquid fall upon his cheek.
Xu Musen looked up, and saw the girl who had fiercely declared he should be her boy, now with reddened eyes and tears gathering rapidly at their corners.
She, was crying.
Xu Musen was truly a bit flustered now; he was used to girls being assertive but he could never stand to see them cry in front of him.
"You..."
Before he could finish,
The girl's body seed to give out, falling towards him, and Xu Musen reached out to catch her.
Zhu Yulan leaned into his embrace, clutching onto him as if he was her last lifeline, lightly holding onto Xu Musen.
Just like that cold night on the island, she curled up in his arms.
Only this ti, maybe she couldn't have this embrace ever again.
She hugged tightly, yet trembled, her sobbing tears slowly dampening Xu Musen's chest.
"Damn it! Who asked you to zone out! Aren't you normally quite the talker? Say sothing... jerk!"
Zhu Yulan punched him with her clenched fist, the grievance in her voice almost bursting forth.
Leaning against the street light, looking at the crying girl in his arms, Xu Musen's gaze also beca complicated, but eventually, he reached out and gently embraced her, softly patting her back.
After all, it was ti to face this issue.
After Zhu Yulan's emotions had cald a bit,
Xu Musen reached out, gently cradling her delicate face, and slowly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. Zhu Yulan looked especially beautiful with her tear-streaked face, a broken heiress, and he had to admit, even under the spotlight shared with An Nuannuan and Yao Mingyue,
Zhu Yulan was still outstanding and radiant; Xu Musen liked and admired her a lot.
But so things were not so simple, liking and admiration alone were not enough to make easy promises.
Yet, looking at the weeping, broken girl before him, Xu Musen always felt that his damned, warm-hearted self took over.
He chuckled, "Can we talk about this, properly?"
Zhu Yulan looked at him, clueless about what he was going to say, just lying there in Xu Musen's embrace.
"You say it... just like that."
Xu Musen shook his head in mild exasperation and smiled.
"First of all, you're a good person... hey! Don't bite yet!"
The mont the Good Person Card appeared, Zhu Yulan imdiately opened her mouth and bit down!
