Chapter 139 - Loving Each Other (1/2)

Jiang Ruolan did not disappoint him this time. She shook her head loudly. ”This was my fault. You don't need to comfort me. I have misunderstood. Forgive me.”

She's ridiculous...

She wanted to hide far away from him, but the result was so childish and laughable. She was blinded by emotions and had not thought about Xian Zihao's situation at all.

When Xian Zihao went back to deal with what had happened at the banquet, he definitely hadn't slept at all. He busied himself for the rest of the day, then went to see Old Man Shi at night, only to find that Jiang Ruolan misunderstood him.

”I have to say, the vinegar you're eating is truly extraordinary.” Xian Zihao suddenly bent his head down with a smile that was not a smile and approached her pale face.

Xian Zihao's lips brushed against Jiang Ruolan's cracked lips, causing her body to shiver. At the same time, she also felt a warm sensation on her waist as Xian Zihao pressed her body into his embrace.

Knowing that her lips were so dry, she did not kiss him deeply.

Jiang Ruolan clearly did something stupid, got mad, fell into a muddle, got sick, and finally face-slapping herself.

How stupid of her.

Jiang Ruolan wanted to find a hole to hide. In the end, Xian Zihao was so tolerant towards her.

Jiang Ruolan obediently laid her head on his chest. If Xian Zihao wanted her to apologize, she could say it because she was completely wrong; however, if he wanted her to admit that she was jealous ...

”I'm not jealous.” Jiang Ruolan leaned her face against Xian Zihao's chest and whispered in a muffled voice.

Xian Zihao lifted her hand and pressed her deeper into his embrace. He silently hugged her and did not argue with her.

Xian Zihao just let her embarrass herself and said with a sigh, ”Jiang Ruolan, we can try loving each other.”

Jiang Ruolan stayed still in Xian Zihao's arms. Her nose filled with his unique and unusually pleasant scent. She did not speak, only lightly wrapping her hands around his waist. It was a silent agreement.

Love?

What she had not dared to hope for, what Xian Zihao had said to her in G City, all his tenderness and tolerance for her, Jiang Ruolan had felt that as long as he liked her, she would accept this marriage.

Although this marriage was full of obstacles, but to love someone like Xian Zihao, she was willing to try.

Because the previous night's fever was too severe and hadn't yet subsided, Jiang Ruolan had limited physical strength. She needed Xian Zihao's help to bring her to the dining table. She looked at the porridge cooked by Xian Zihao and then at two rather light but tasty dishes on the table.

She swallowed hard. Although her throat hurt, she was indeed hungry, and when facing such a plain and simple delicacy, she had to swallow it no matter how much her throat hurt.

After taking another two bites, Jiang Ruolan saw a faint smile in Xian Zihao's eyes and couldn't help but ask, ”Xian Zihao, are you still human? Why are you laughing at me? Oh, by the way, where do you learn to cook?”
