Chapter 90: Chapter 89: 24 Days of Love_1 Chapter 90: Chapter 89: 24 Days of Love_1 “Yan Ling.” Qi Yunjue’s face suddenly turned serious as he looked at Yan Ling, whose face was flushed.
“What’s up?” Yan Ling asked, feeling a bit nervous under Qi Yunjue’s deep and serious gaze.
“Could you give an opportunity to formally pursue you?” Qi Yunjue asked.
Upon hearing his words, Yan Ling’s heart started to race. For the first ti, he had expressed his feelings for her so formally!
Though she had not explicitly stated her intentions during their phone call, she had resolved to reject any ambiguous feelings between them and maintain a manageable distance.
Since the incident six years ago, she’d developed a strong rebuff for love and n. Even when n pursued her during her years abroad, all she felt was disinterest.
She didn’t want to repeat old mistakes by giving soone the opportunity to hurt her or to put herself through the sa hopelessness.
But as the man in front of her confessed his feelings sincerely, she could feel her long-silent heart starting to race uncontrollably…
She knew that he was different!
But she hadn’t realized how deeply he had influenced her.
Yan Ling looked at the man before her, his gaze soft and expectant. She felt a ball of turmoil in her heart.
Taking a deep breath, she finally spoke, “Mr. Qi, in twenty-four days, our temporary marriage will be over!”
With her words, she implied that after everything ended, they would no longer be involved with each other.
Qi Yunjue’s face darkened at her words. “Is that how you want to end things with ?” He asked.
Pressured by his stern gaze, Yan Ling lowered her head, “Didn’t we agree to this when we got our marriage certificate? Once our month-long marriage contract ends, we won’t interfere with each other’s lives.”
Qi Yunjue: “I didn’t agree.”
Yan Ling jerked her head up, “What do you an?”
Qi Yunjue extended his hand. The silver ring on his finger captured Yan Ling’s attention.
Wasn’t this the ring she had bought at a street stall for five yuan so they could smoothly get their marriage certificate?
Had he been wearing it all this ti?
Looking at Yan Ling, the man said slowly, “What I an is, since the mont I agreed to marry you, I have never once thought about getting divorced.”
On hearing Qi Yunjue’s words, Yan Ling’s pupils shrank, and her heart, which was already out of control, began to beat wildly.
This unfamiliar heart palpitation left Yan Ling at a loss.
Taking a deep breath, she lowered her gaze, “I’m sorry… We’re not suitable…”
“Even if your rejection is unconvincing right now, you haven’t given a chance to start properly. How can you know if we are suitable or not? We still have twenty-four days. If, after those twenty-four days, you still have no feelings for , I’ll accept your rejection.”
Qi Yunjue spoke, his face serious.
She touched her forehead helplessly, “What do you want to do?”
“You don’t have to do anything. Just don’t deliberately avoid !”
When she heard such humble words from the man who usually seed so proud and unapproachable, Yan Ling’s heart ached.
She took a deep breath, looked at the man beside her, and decided to speak, “Alright, I give you permission to pursue for the next twenty-four days. But if after twenty-four days, I still don’t have feelings for you, we must get a divorce.”
