Shen Fanxing grasped her hands together as a glint flashed across her eyes.
"You're angry again."
"What I'm saying is only human nature. If Linlin is your child, I can't deprive you of your right to be a father. Linlin's mother isn't dead and she's still in prison. Since she's alive, you have the responsibility to take care of her. I can't snatch a woman's man, let alone a child's father."
What she hated the most was the third party who ruined a family.
Thus, she would never allow herself to end up like that.
A storm stirred in Bo Jinchuan's eyes.
He stared at Shen Fanxing for a long time before his deep and cold voice sounded. "You think that's what I care about?"
Shen Fanxing fell silent for a while, as she was unable to hide anything from his piercing eyes. She took a deep breath and rested her hand on the windowpane. She propped her forehead on her hand as she stared at the darkening sky.
"I know what you're thinking, but what I said just now is indeed the reason why I can't stay by your side. I can't break my principle, or else the situation will lose its balance and become more chaotic. You just can't tolerate me saying that I want to leave you so easily. But under those circumstances, what do you think I'll choose between you and the child of another woman? I'll choose to leave, but Bo Jinchuan, that doesn't mean I won't be sad…"
Shen Fanxing turned her head to look at him. Her aloof face was shone palely under the dim light in the car. Her lips curled upwards, as though she wanted to hide something. But her face looked forlorn, as though she wasn't breathing.
Bo Jinchuan's gaze landed on the woman who was pensive and quiet. The storm in him disappeared and the coldness in his eyes changed.
"You've never been someone who is dispensable to me. You appeared when I was in my most pathetic state. You gave me immense help when I was most helpless. In such a short period of time, you've given me far more than everyone who has appeared in my life. Bo Jinchuan, don't treat me as an ingrate…"
Bo Jinchuan's bone-chilling aura vanished completely. Looking at the pale face of the woman, he tucked a lock of her hair aside. He placed his long fingers on her eyes.
He couldn't bear the look in her eyes.
"Sorry…"
The man's voice was deep and husky, and his eyes reflected a rare helplessness and loss.
Shen Fanxing's eyes were covered by the man's warm hand and she blinked a few times. Her long lashes brushed against Bo Jinchuan's palm and it felt ticklish.
"You barged into my life with such force and determination. From the start, it was something that I couldn't predict, I couldn't stop, and neither could I make decisions. That's why I'm afraid too. You can do whatever you want, and similarly, you can leave in the same way too… Just like how everyone is determined to leave… I can't do anything but prepare myself to accept it…"
"No," Bo Jinchuan cut across as he pulled her into his embrace forcefully. his low and hoarse voice was tinged with panic and urgency. "I won't leave."
"I know I should trust you, Bo Jinchuan, I should trust you…"
Yet, she couldn't predict the future as there were too many variables.
"Sorry, I was too anxious."
