"Nuannuan..."
Leng Yan murmured, with a hint of sadness and hidden fear in his eyes.
"Listen to me." Wen Nuan shook her head slowly, "I'm afraid this marriage won't last long. So, Leng Yan, starting today, let's separate for a few days. I'll stay at my father's place for a while so we both can cool down, and I can truly have some peace, okay?"
The light on Leng Yan's face dimmed, and fear of losing her flickered in his peach blossom eyes. He impulsively grabbed her shoulders, "Can't we avoid this? Nuannuan, I promise not to see her, okay?"
"You can't do it."
Wen Nuan smiled lightly, seeing his tearful eyes full of sorrow, and spoke with certainty, "You might say this now, but Leng Yan, you soon won't be able to. You're a kind person, which was what initially drew me to you. Also, doing this makes me feel unreasonable too."
If it were her in his situation, she thought she wouldn't be able to either. Yet, it's precisely this that makes one feel even more conflicted.
