Chapter 395 - I BELIEVE IN YOU (2/2)
”Should we go home first?” Zheng Mian suggested.
”No, let's go somewhere quiet,” Han Sheng Ming told her.
”Sure, we can go to the nearby park.” Zheng Mian took his hand and they slowly walked in the direction of the park across the road. She felt her boyfriend's hand was sweating. 'Why is he so nervous? Did something happen?'
The park was filled with young couples. They were in very intimate positions. Some were sitting on benches and some were on grass. Many of them were smooching or whispering stuff only for their partner's ears. Love was in the air. Han Sheng Ming pulled Zheng Mian beside the lake. Only then he stopped and faced her.
”So, what do you want to talk about?” she asked directly.
Han Sheng Ming lowered his eyes. Although he bravely stepped forward, he was unable to find a word at that moment.
Han Sheng Ming tightly shut his eyes and blabbered in one breath, ”I dreamed that you were wearing s.e.xy lingerie and seducing me in my bed. I was trying to hug you. That's why I mistakenly hugged Poppy. I didn't want to hide it from you but I was scared that you would think of me as a pervert. So, I didn't want to tell you. But then I realized that it might cause a misunderstanding and you might leave me.”
After saying everything he wanted as fast as he could, he took a deep breath. He realized that he was holding his breath for half a minute. He felt that something heavy was lifted from his c.h.e.s.t. He felt relieved.
The very reason he was feeling uncomfortable and acted abnormally was because he had never hidden anything from anyone. An easygoing person like him was hiding something from his girlfriend. For him, it was a big deal.
He felt awful for not sharing his experience with her. He would rather fight an enemy than hiding anything from her ever again.
”What?!” Zheng Mian exclaimed. After she did, her head began to process his words. She crossed her arms and said, ”Lingerie, the one I wear mostly when I go to sleep?”
”Yes…” Han Sheng Ming's tone lowered a bit.
Zheng Mian continued, ”And I seduced you...”
”...Yes…” Han Sheng Ming's tone lowered like a mosquito.
”You thought I wouldn't stay with you if you hid it from me.” Zheng Mian mumbled and sighed deeply. ”It looks like you don't have faith in me.”
Zheng Mian stared at him intensely for a moment before inquiring, ”Is that all?”
”What?” Han Sheng Ming blinked.
Zheng Mian questioned him again, ”Is that all you wanted to say?”
”...Yes,” Han Seng Ming hesitantly replied.
She said, ”Let's go home then.”
”Okay…” Han Sheng Ming was even more scared of her calm reaction.
Zheng Mian wasn't saying anything. She had a poker face. He couldn't read her mind. He was feeling devastated but he couldn't say anything. He quietly followed her with visible nervousness.
After going home, Zheng Mian hadn't talked to him even once. Han Sheng Ming thought this was the end. He was heart broken. He freshened up and had some snacks. He couldn't taste his favorite cookies.
Han Luo and Mo Yuan came home and they saw that both Han Sheng MIng and Zheng Mian's doors were closed. Han Luo didn't bother them. She went to her room and prepared for her upcoming test and meeting. Mo Yuan also had his own homework to be done.
Han Luo noticed everything and stayed quiet. She thought that they needed some space.
After dinner, Han Sheng MIng went back to his room with a desolate heart. His brain wasn't working at all. He recalled their time in the park and then he confessed what he was hiding from her.
He remembered what she said back then, ”You thought I wouldn't stay with you if you hid it from me. It looks like you don't have faith in me.”
'Did she seem sad for some reason?' Han Sheng Ming thought, 'Maybe I need to give her some time and space to cool down.'
However, his legs automatically began to walk toward the direction of her room.
