"No, I won't divorce you, Ling'er. This is true. You can ask Shengyuan. Every word I say is true."
He held her hand tightly in a panic, as if he was afraid that she would leave at this moment.
He was so anxious that he even spoke without thinking and called Feng Yu's name in a panic.
"Ling'er, believe me. If I tell a lie, I will be struck by lightning, and my life will be miserable, destitute, and deserted by my friends and family..."
The glitter in his eyes reflected a bright light that pierced straight into Jiang Ling's heart.
Zhou Jing'an was still at a loss as he swore to her, placing those terrible curses on himself without hesitation.
The voice was gentle but anxious, stuttering and choked with sobs.
Jiang Ling closed her eyes slightly and couldn't help but turn her head to look at the flowers and plants beside her.
It’s over, she can’t take it anymore.
This is completely a test of her sense of belief and self-control as an actor!
She is still adjusting her state and trying not to be soft-hearted.
But Zhou Jing'an saw that she didn't even look at him, so he thought she didn't want to listen to his explanation at all.
My heart immediately sank, and I felt a sharp pain, as if every part of my body was being pricked by needles.
His nose felt sore and he almost cried.
No, he can’t cry. Ling’er hates him crying the most.
This will make him even more disgusted.
He thought so, trying hard to control the tears from rolling down.
"Ling'er, look at me, can you please look at me?"
In Jiang Ling's eyes, he looked like he was about to cry, and he looked at her sadly, as if he was about to break.
His eyes were red and filled with tears.
The sense of belief that Jiang Ling had just built up was almost shattered again.
She took a deep breath and spoke again.
"Even if what you said is true, how could you pretend to be friendly with them and enter Chunxiangyuan without getting hurt and without arousing suspicion?"
Seeing that she was still willing to talk to him, Zhou Jing'an immediately explained, "I only had a meal and a drink with them, and then they each went their separate ways, and I took the girl back to her room."
"They stuffed people into my room, but I didn't even touch a single piece of their clothing after I entered the room."
Jiang Ling continued to ask: "Will they really stay here and not tip off others?"
The people there have no control over their own affairs. If they fail to accomplish anything, they will probably be punished.
Zhou Jingan shook his head, "No, I didn't let them touch each other. They didn't even have clothes. They were all tricked into coming here. They were coerced and lured into being honest."
He held her hand tightly and said, "Ling'er, the smell of powder on those clothes is because the smell in Chunxiangyuan is too strong, so you accidentally got some of it on them. It's definitely not because you touched them."
Zhou Jing'an tried hard to suppress his sobs, "And Ling'er, don't accuse me of what you said about me having difficulties, feeling uncomfortable, and being unable to help but look for others."
"Before I had you, I never looked for anyone else. I lived like this for several years. Now that I have you, how could I abandon you and look for someone else? I will never do anything to make you sad."
He finally couldn't hold it in anymore and tears suddenly fell.
Zhou Jing'an wiped it away hurriedly, not wanting her to see him crying.
"Even if you, Ling'er, don't want me to touch you, I won't go beyond the limit. Even if it takes a lifetime, I can definitely do it."
He had never been a man of lust, of course, but that was no longer the case after he met Jiang Ling. But he had never been after these things from her, he just truly loved her as a person.
His bright eyes were filled with sadness and anxiety at this moment. He was afraid that she would talk about divorce or taking a concubine for him again, so he hurried to express his feelings.
"It's my fault for hiding it from you. There won't be a next time. From now on, no matter what happens, I will never hide anything from you."
His voice was a little aggrieved, and he added, "Ling'er, please don't take a concubine for me, and don't say such things anymore."
