Chapter 233 Never Officially Confessed
He was afraid that talking about the past would hurt her.
Then they changed the subject: "How was the food Aunt Feng made today? Did it suit your taste?"
Sang Ruo nodded gently: "Mmm, it's delicious."
"Then you should eat more."
A gentle smile curved the corners of the man's lips.
Sang Ruo was about to nod when Bo Jinyan suddenly reached out and touched her lips, as if wiping something away.
When Sang Ruo looked up and their eyes met, her heart raced as she saw his handsome face.
"Like a little glutton, food is all over his mouth."
That doting voice made her instinctively look away.
When this man is gentle, every move he makes can make her feel a flutter in her heart.
If her relationship with Bo Jinzhou was a slow-acting poison...
The care and love that Bo Jinyan gave her was one of the few antidotes in the world, capable of completely untying the knot in her heart.
After taking a shower, Sang Ruo stood alone on the large balcony, gazing absently at the white snow outside the window.
Bo Jinyan still had work to do and had been staying in his study for two whole hours without coming out.
A biting wind swept in, seeping into her black nightgown.
She rested her elbows on either side of the recliner, watching the snowflakes fall from the sky, and couldn't help but smile slightly.
The snowflakes fell heavier and heavier, and she couldn't help but stand up, reach out her hand, and catch a few snowflakes.
In the past, when it snowed in the courtyard in Hengyang, her grandfather would always sit with her around the stove, looking out at the white snow, and tell her those distant stories.
There were memories of him and his grandmother, memories of her parents, and memories of things before she had any memories.
"Why didn't you bring a jacket with you?"
The man's deep voice came from beside her ear, completely interrupting her thoughts.
She turned around at the sound and immediately saw Bo Jinyan standing to the side.
"It's alright, it's not too cold."
Bo Jinyan draped a black coat over her shoulders, then stood beside her, his gaze fixed on the white snow outside.
"Thank you, Mr. Bo." Sang Ruo smiled faintly. "You're done so quickly? I thought you'd be busy until at least midnight! It's probably only ten o'clock now, right?"
"I wanted to come back and be with you, so I sped up the process."
Bo Jinyan's gaze remained fixed ahead, but his voice was exceptionally gentle.
Sang Ruo's hand, which was pulling her coat tighter, paused slightly.
After that, neither of them said anything more, their eyes fixed on the distance ahead.
This was the first snow they had ever seen. Although the weather was very cold, it inexplicably made her feel warm.
Not long after, Bo Jinyan suddenly called out to her softly, "Sang Ruo."
Upon hearing the voice, Sang Ruo quickly turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
"In just over ten days, you'll get your divorce certificate. After you get it, will you stay with me?"
After Bo Jinyan's voice fell, Sang Ruo's back stiffened involuntarily for a moment.
She swallowed instinctively, suddenly unsure how to respond.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Bo Jinyan quickly turned around and faced her directly: "Why aren't you saying anything? Hmm?"
Sang Ruo turned to look at him, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Bo Jinyan's brows furrowed slightly: "Sang Ruo, you're not planning to find another excuse to keep delaying, are you?"
"That's not what I meant, I just felt..."
In fact, up to this point, this man has never truly confessed his feelings to her.
He never formally said "I like you" to her.
The lack of a formal confession might mean that he doesn't really like her that much, and that he only wants to be with her because they are compatible in bed.
Because they had already done everything they should and shouldn't have done, but they had never talked about feelings.
"What do you think?"
Sang Ruo's thoughts were interrupted, and she looked up at him quietly: "Being together is something that only two people with feelings can do. Between us..."
Do you have feelings for them?
She hesitated to ask those words.
She even asked herself whether she liked the person or their compatibility in some way.
She had no idea either...
"You don't actually think we don't have feelings for each other, do you?"
Bo Jinyan placed his hand on her shoulder, instantly turning her around and forcing her to face him.
Sang Ruo's upper eyelashes trembled slightly for a moment.
"Answer me."
Bo Jinyan's voice was particularly stern, making it impossible to resist.
To this day, she still can't see through this man's heart, and she doesn't know whether he loves her as a person or her body.
When I can't give a reply, I don't want to hurt his feelings.
Her hand gripped the coat tightly.
The next second, without hesitation, he tiptoed and placed a light, fleeting kiss on her lips.
Bo Jinyan was stunned for a moment.
After realizing what was happening, he placed his hand on her waist and responded to her kiss deeply.
Since Sang Ruo rarely took the initiative to kiss him, he naturally had to respond.
She didn't remember how long the kiss lasted, only that he released her when she was almost out of breath.
The moment their eyes met, she saw a hidden restraint and forbearance in his eyes.
"I know your hand hurts, but I want to sleep with you tonight. I won't do anything, okay?"
The man's tone was gentle, with a hint of probing.
Sang Ruo hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help but nod.
Bo Jinyan picked her up and placed her on the bed.
He reached out and gently stroked her hair: "I'm going to take a shower, I'll be right back."
Without waiting for her response, the man turned and went into the dressing room.
Before leaving, they made a point of turning off the headlights.
Sang Ruo lay on the large bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, thinking about the events of the day, and slowly closed her eyes.
When Bo Jinyan came out of the bathroom, Sang Ruo was already fast asleep.
He turned off the bedside lamp, lay down beside her, and pulled her into his arms, unable to resist kissing her lips again.
She seemed to be sleeping soundly and did not wake up during the night.
The man's kisses involuntarily moved to her snow-white neck.
The moment Sang Ruo's soft hum reached his ears, all his movements came to an abrupt halt.
This is so frustrating!
There has never been anyone he has ever been so attached to.
Just one kiss was enough to make him crave more.
He quickly threw off the covers, got up, and took another shower.
After taking a shower, the heat in my body gradually subsided.
He originally thought that things would be fine as long as he didn't kiss her, but that wasn't the case.
That night, Bo Jinyan took three showers...
The next day, early morning.
"Achoo—"
"Achoo—"
Sang Ruo had just woken up when she heard a man sneezing beside her.
She looked up at the sound and froze when she saw the scene on the sofa.
