"I know you're tired, but don't you think continuing like this will only make you more tired?"
Fen Tianming walked up to Murong Qin, looked her straight in the eye, and said seriously, "I just want to ask you, how many years have we known each other?"
"More than ten years, I think."
Fen Tianming suddenly asked a different question, which made Murong Qin relax a little. After thinking for a moment, she replied.
"You're right. It's been over ten years. You must know me very well by now, right?"
Fen Tianming continued, "So, what kind of person do you think I am?"
"Steady, kind, and a friend you can confide in."
Murong Qin thought for a moment, but did not dare to look Fen Tianming in the eye, and turned away with her head down.
"Qin'er, look at me."
Fen Tianming didn't give her a chance to escape. "More than ten years, and we often do missions together. I believe you are quite familiar with me, and I am quite familiar with you. Don't you think we are a good match?"
“I…I really hadn’t thought about this.”
Murong Qin's heart skipped a beat, but she shook her head and said, "Right now, I really..."
"I know you've been hurt in love, and it was very deep, but so have I, haven't I?"
Fen Tianming looked at Murong Qin very seriously and said, "It is precisely because we have had such an experience that we are particularly cautious in making a new choice. Qin'er, my determination to be with you is the result of more than ten years of careful consideration. It is not a spur-of-the-moment decision. It is not love at first sight between us either. You should know that."
"I know…"
Fen Tianming spoke with such sincerity that Murong Qin had no way to refute him.
"So, do you dislike me?" Fen Tianming continued to ask.
"Of course not."
Not to mention that Fen Tianming is a very good person, they have been partners for many years. Even if they don't end up together, their relationship will far exceed that of family.
"Then let me ask you another question: what if I fell in love with a girl other than you and wanted to marry her?"
Fen Tianming hypothetically said, "Can you truly offer your blessings to us? I'll give you time to think it over; you don't need to rush to answer me."
After saying that, Fen Tianming stopped talking and just quietly looked at Murong Qin.
When she first heard the question, Murong Qin instinctively wanted to say yes, because as a good friend, it was naturally something to celebrate when the other person was getting married.
But now that she's calmed down, the thought of Fen Tianming's embrace, his hand, his protection, his tenderness—all of it will be given to another girl, and then she will take her place, inseparable from him…
In that instant, Murong Qin felt a pang of panic and confusion.
Because she could clearly feel a tightness in her chest, a dull ache, and even her eyes were a little sore.
This wasn't her first relationship, so she understood this feeling—a sense of resentment and possessiveness.
Yes, she was unwilling and unable to accept such a thing happening.
"Qin'er, I believe in love at first sight, but in fact, even though Senior Brother and Lord Jue were destined to be together, they only realized their feelings after a long period of getting to know each other."
Fen Tianming stood in front of Murong Qin and said slowly, "Actually, we already have feelings for each other, but we've never paid attention to them. In fact, I think our current state of things falling into place naturally is the best."
