Chapter 208 Trust
She is responsible for maintaining her own values, and the other party only needs to trust and support her.
She can judge right from wrong on her own and does not need others to make decisions for her, nor does she need to be influenced by the outside world.
She knew clearly that a person's bottom line and principles must ultimately be maintained by himself.
She looked at Zhu Qingwei, who seemed a little flustered, his eyes full of anxiety and heartache, "Why are you crying?"
His voice was soft but he spoke quickly, as if he was trying to suppress his emotions but was afraid of appearing too clumsy.
She had experienced too much of the coldness of the world in her previous life. The indifference and reality were like knives that left deep marks in her heart.
I have also seen all kinds of mutual calculations in love and marriage. The weighing and consideration of interests seem to be an inevitable part of love and are everywhere.
There are calculations behind marriage, having children, and even divorce.
Some people plan early on to completely abandon their partner after exhausting them in the marriage, not even willing to provide the most basic living security, as if the relationship was never sincere from the beginning.
Everyone says that they don’t question love itself, but true feelings change too quickly.
From the initial sweet words to the later indifference and betrayal, sometimes it doesn’t even take too long to completely change a person.
In the era she came from, many people no longer believed in marriage and even dared not talk about feelings.
It’s not that I don’t want to, but I’m hurt too deeply and I’m afraid of falling into the abyss again and never being able to climb out.
For many people, falling in love and getting married is a step that requires a lot of courage to take.
Every step is like stepping into an unknown minefield, and if you are not careful, you will lose everything.
Zhu Jingchen himself is a kind person.
This kindness is not deliberately disguised, nor is it given to anyone in particular, but rather a gentleness and kindness that comes from his heart.
He was not nice to her just because she was his partner, but because that was his nature and he was kind to the whole world.
No matter who the other person is, he is willing to treat them with a sincere heart.
She was just a person in this world, but he gave her the most basic kindness and warmth.
Even if they are not familiar with each other, he will not hesitate to show his concern.
Later, I developed a special liking for her.
From strangers to acquaintances, he approached her little by little, using his tenderness to tolerate her past pain.
She couldn't guarantee whether things would change in the future, nor did she dare to say that love could last forever.
But at this moment he is sincere, his love is passionate and worthy of response.
So, she was willing to take an adventure with him.
Even if there are unknown storms and an uncertain future ahead, she doesn't want to hesitate any longer.
Chen Yan's tears flowed more and more, sliding down her cheeks, as if the grievances that had been suppressed for too long finally found an outlet.
Zhu Jingchen wanted to reach out and wipe it, but he hesitated and withdrew his hand, as if he was afraid of disturbing her mood.
His movements were a little flustered, yet restrained, for fear that an inappropriate action would hurt her feelings.
She took his hand and gently touched the corners of her eyes and cheeks with it.
At that moment, she seemed to be telling him: "It's okay, you can come close to me."
Zhu Jingchen seemed to have received tacit consent and became proactive, gently wiping away her tears one by one.
His fingertips were gentle, as if he was caressing the most precious treasure.
She smiled, tears shining brightly and softly. "Brother Wei Qing, let's make a deal. Not only will you give me a lot of money, but you'll also give me a lot of love."
"I will give you all my love."
He whispered back, his voice firm and warm, like it was a statement to her and a promise for the future.
Zhu Jingchen couldn't help laughing, his voice trembling slightly: "Then we...we are now..."
Chen Yan gently held his hand, her palm warm with the delicacy and tenderness unique to a young girl.
She lowered her head, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and her lips gently touched the back of his hand. It was a gentle but firm kiss.
Then she spoke softly, her tone gentle but firm: "Of course we are boyfriend and girlfriend."
Zhu Jingchen's face suddenly turned red!
His ears turned red as if they were on fire.
His eyes widened and he froze in place—why had she just kissed him?
This move was completely beyond his imagination.
Zhu Jingchen stood there, his hands at a loss, his mind blank.
My heart was beating like a drum, and I had no idea how to respond to the scene before me.
He coughed lightly, trying to hide his nervousness, turned his face away quietly, and stammered, "W-why...why are you doing this?"
"Hehehe."
Suddenly, a mischievous laugh came from the other side of the window, like the sound of wind blowing bells, with a hint of mischievous joy.
Zhu Jingchen and Shen Yan immediately let go of their hands and separated almost reflexively, with embarrassment and panic on their faces.
I saw Song Xiaomei and Song Xiaochen lying on the window outside, one on each side, with their heads huddled together, their eyes shining.
Song Xiaomei poked her head out and said with a smile, "Brother Wei Qing, you're so naive! Our Shuyun took the initiative, and you're still blushing! How immature!"
Upon hearing this, Song Xiaochen slapped his thigh, the movement so large that his figure swayed slightly. He looked very disappointed, "I said it must be my fault. I should have taken you to read romance novels earlier, so that you could open your mind and learn how to express yourself sooner!"
Zhu Jingchen's face turned even redder after hearing what they said, and he felt like a cooked crab.
I was speechless - what are these people usually researching? They can even say such things.
As for Chen Yan, after confirming their relationship, she became more calm.
She has a straightforward personality and once she is determined in a relationship, she will not be shy.
She was convinced of Zhu Jingchen, as if a certain suspense in her heart had finally been resolved.
Now, she felt like she had fulfilled a particularly important wish.
People always have a natural desire to control the people or things that belong to them, which comes from the trust and dependence in their hearts.
Now, she just wants to smile happily.
She turned her head to look at Song Xiaochen, her eyes firm and slightly mischievous, but her tone was very serious, "Brother Xiaochen, then you should teach him quickly. My future happiness depends on you."
Zhu Jingchen almost staggered when he heard this, his face turned red like a tomato again, and he felt like his heart almost skipped a beat.
This is a bit too explicit - how could she say it so bluntly!
He quietly withdrew his hand, coughed softly, and said in a pretended calm manner, “You are a little overexcited now, I’ll go see Grandma Shen and Grandpa Qin.”
Having said that, he was about to turn around and leave quickly.
Song Xiaochen stretched out his hand and blocked his way, his face full of resentment. "Don't go, I haven't finished teaching you yet! If you keep going like this, I'll have to teach you for the rest of my life before you see any results!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Jingchen immediately quickened his pace, without even looking back, and left as if he was running away from a monster.
Song Xiaochen ran out of the window, almost without stopping, and looked back at the situation in the house while running.
