Chapter 576 - If You Really Have No Feelings For Me, I Will Leave You (2/2)
Just as she was about to get up, Qin Gengxin seemed to sense the movement. He woke up and opened his sleepy eyes.
Finally, he frowned, raised his arm, rubbed it between his eyebrows, and turned to look at the sliver of sunlight that peeked out of the curtain. Then he looked back at Xian Guiying, who was resting on his other arm. Her face was calm and natural.
Only then did he realize what was going on. He looked at the arm around her waist and then looked at her. After a two-moment silence, he asked, ”When did you wake up?”
Xian Guiying just looked at him as she lay calmly next to him. Her head rested on his arm. She didn't move when she gently said, ”Just now.”
Seeing that she looked very comfortable lying like this, Qin Gengxin looked at her intently. When Xian Guiying woke up, she didn't move at all. The thin nightgown she was wearing fell slightly from her shoulders, revealing her sacred, white shoulders.
She didn't know it and she just quietly leaned on his side without moving away, and she was not actively doing anything.
Qin Gengxin stared sharply at her, then lowered his head to look at the blanket. He pulled the blanket over their body, covering Xian Guiying's exposed shoulders. His actions were gentle, like a perfect husband coaxing his beloved wife to continue sleeping.
Xian Guiying suddenly remembered that she always imagined such a morning once upon a time.
In her world, she didn't need so many things. The happiness she wanted was just to wake up every morning with him by her side.
Qin Gengxin continued to stare at her. After so long, he was finally able to look away, and covered her face with the blanket, then said in a clear, slightly hoarse voice, ”Stop looking at me like that. Men have the most hormones in the morning. If you really don't want me to do something that you might regret, then continue to sleep.”
Just as he was about to get up, Xian Guiying suddenly sat up and flipped him over, pushing him back onto the bed.
”You ...” Qin Gengxin was shocked by her sudden action. He lowered his head to look at Xian Guiying, who pressed against him like a kitten about to do something bad. His eyes twitched, ”What do you want to do?”
”Eleven years!” Xian Guiying pressed down on him, not allowing him to move. Lying on his body, she pressed down on his four limbs, her clear gaze was fixed on his eyes that had long since deepened a little. ”Qin Gengxin, it's been eleven years. Tell me, when I finally wavered and decided to give up this marriage and this unrequited love, why did you suddenly lie beside me? Why did you suddenly treat me gently like this?”
Qin Gengxin paused. ”I …”
”It has nothing to do with your parents and grandmother.” Xian Guiying took the lead, she pinched the space between his neck and shoulder. Her neat nails pressed against his neck, her clear eyes like shrewd cats. ”You don't have to do this if it's just to deal with your parents!”
”I beg you, please tell me. In these eleven years, did you have the slightest bit of feeling between a man and a woman for me? Tell me clearly! I don't want to be too hopeful with this marriage when it ends in sadness. You just have to give me an answer now. Do we really have no future? Otherwise, if you really have no feelings for me, I will leave you. I will completely leave your world!”
Her hands were still pinching his neck. Although her grip wasn't too strong, she was clearly threatening him.
Qin Gengxin just looked at her blankly. What had suddenly aroused the passion and impulsiveness hidden deep in her bones?
