Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Song Jia hugged Lu Zhen and couldn’t bear to let go. Everything that happened tonight was too unreal. He even felt like he was dreaming.
Lu Zhen lay in Song Jia’s arms. Although she was very tired, she didn’t say that she wanted to leave. After hesitating for a moment, she said, “Actually, I asked you what you wanted just to remind you that I might not be able to give you much companionship or emotional value. I’m not a very interesting person. I’m afraid you’ll find it meaningless to be with me one day.”
Song Jia did not understand why Lu Zhen would think that way. He tightened his arms and said in a serious tone, “What are you thinking about? You’re you. I like you, not what value you can bring me.”
Song Jia thought of Lu Zhen’s previous growth and realized that not only did she not feel safe, but she might also have some fawning personalities. When Lu Zhen mistakenly thought that he was angry, her tone of apology was so careful and flustered. Although Lu Zhen had already walked out of the influence of the past. those terrible experiences still left some marks on her.
“Alright, I understand,” Lu Zhen whispered.
Actually, Lu Zhen also understood that there was no need for her to have such thoughts. Perhaps her dating experience in her previous life was too terrible, so she was not very confident in dating. Moreover, since she had chosen to be honest with Song Jia, she would value Song Jia very much in the future. Hence, she was very concerned about his opinion of her. If the two of them did not make it to the end, she would definitely be very sad.
Song Jia looked at Lu Zhen, who seemed to be thinking about something in a daze. He guessed that Lu Zhen would definitely not be able to change her mind in a short period of time. She said that she understood, but in fact, she might still have that pessimistic thought.
Song Jia stroked Lu Zhen’s head and said gently, “Alright, don’t think too much. Go back and have a good sleep.” It didn’t matter. He would use his actions to appease all the uneasiness in her heart.
Lu Zhen nodded. For some reason, after talking to Song Jia, she was a little clingy to him. Since they were about to separate, she was even more attached to his arms.
Song Jia sent Lu Zhen back to the house and left. Lu Zhen walked into the room and fell onto the bed, covering her face. Are the two of them together now? It was really rushed! Although she did not expect the plot to develop like this tonight, she did not regret drinking that glass of wine. The alcohol made her realize her feelings for Song Jia more clearly.
She, who was usually calm, restrained her emotions too much. Coupled with too many worries and lack of confidence, she was simply forcefully denying her feelings for Song Jia. After getting drunk, those suppressed and blurry emotions surfaced clearly.
After washing up, Lu Zhen lay on the bed and held her phone. Just as she was hesitating, Song Jia sent her a message. “Are you in bed?”
Lu Zhen replied, “Yes, what about you?”
As soon as she sent the message, she received a voice call. Lu Zhen was a little surprised. The two of them basically did not call each other. If anything happened, they would communicate in words. After picking up the call, Lu Zhen was a little embarrassed and asked, “Why are you calling?”
“l want to hear your voice.” Song Jia’s tone was calm, and there seemed to be a faint smile.
Lu Zhen’s heart was beating a little fast. She covered her head under the blanket. “What’s there to listen to?”
“It’s nice. I like it, but I haven’t heard enough.” The man said such hot words in a cold voice. When Lu Zhen heard this, her face turned red.
Why was this person so straightforward! Lu Zhen turned around and lay on her side. She asked again, “Why didn’t you video call?” Although she was a little embarrassed to admit it. she actually wanted to see Song Jia. It didn’t matter even if it was on the screen.
Song Jia was silent for two seconds before saying, “Let’s video call tomorrow. I’m… a little shy tonight.”
Lu Zhen was stunned for a moment before she held back her laughter. “Are you shy?”
“Yes, you might not be able to tell, but it’s true.” The man smiled. “Actually, I still can’t believe it.’
Lu Zhen bit her lip and said softly, “Then we’ll video call tomorrow.”
“Okay,” Song Jia replied. He looked at the time again. It was getting late. Although he couldn’t bear to hang up, he still said gently, “It’s time to sleep.”
After hanging up, Lu Zhen stared at her phone for a while before lying down to sleep. When she woke up the next day, Lu Zhen first received a message from Jiang Fei. Jiang Fei reminded her that the temperature had dropped drastically recently. She had to pay attention to her clothes when she went out..
