Hearing her answer, Shen Wangjin's thoughts instantly returned to March.
It was that time when he saw her and Huo Jinbei sitting together, chatting and joking, which directly became the trigger for the breakdown of their relationship.
She said she didn't want him to misunderstand or be suspicious. Is this what she was referring to?
Thinking of this, Huo Jinbei lowered his head slightly and looked at her, but Zhuang Yibo just curled up and leaned in his arms, motionless.
But Shen Wangjin suddenly remembered the time she came to Bincheng to find him.
He reached out his hand and slowly raised her chin, semi-forcing her to raise her eyes to look at him.
"What was your original plan when you came to Bincheng to find me?"
Hearing this question, Zhuang Yibo was stunned for a moment. Before he could recover, his eyes were already slightly red uncontrollably.
When she came back to her senses, she took a deep breath, tried hard to contain the moisture in her eyes, and then replied in a low voice: "I originally thought that if it was really you who did it, in order not to hurt my friends anymore, I could only hide.
Stay far away, stop seeing you, and stop contacting your friends. In this way, maybe everything can return to peace."
"How far away can you hide?" Shen Wangjin asked.
"In the Southern Hemisphere, Wellington, New Zealand, or Buenos Aires, Argentina." She murmured in a low voice, "I have seen them all. By then, I can ask Qianxing's father to help, and no one will know where I am.
No one can find me, and everything will be fine by then..."
After hearing this, Shen Wangjin's eyes froze for a moment, and then he said again: "What if I told you at that time that I didn't do it?"
Zhuang Yibo raised his eyes to look at him again. He was quiet for a long time before speaking again: "Then I will tell you that I have no other thoughts about Huo Jinbei. I just regard him as a friend. I just hope that I can have a good time with you."
Together, all the time, all the time... this goes on."
As she spoke, she couldn't help but hold his hand, from relaxing at first to gradually tightening...
"But you told me that I was free..." She murmured, as if she just said it unintentionally, but the strength of the hand holding his suddenly disappeared by half.
Shen Wangjin slowly looked at her.
She recalled the past, but she almost didn't dare to look into his eyes.
Shen Wangjin looked at her like that for a long time before finding her lips again and kissed her.
After a long time, she finally slowly stretched out her hand and hugged his neck, feeling the complete warmth of his body again.
"Then if you had to choose between freedom and me, which one would you choose?"
I don’t know how long it took, but Shen Wangjin suddenly left this question in her ears.
She woke up from her daze in an instant, with a faint uneasiness in her eyes, but she just forced herself to be calm and looked at him with a slight breath.
"I am free now." She whispered, "I am also with you...Isn't this okay?"
"What if I have to ask you to choose?" Shen Wangjin lowered his head again, almost touching the tip of her nose, as if he insisted on asking for an answer.
Being so close, Zhuang Yibo couldn't see the expression on his face at all. He could only clearly feel his lips, his breathing, and the temperature against her skin.
All these are things she misses and is unwilling to lose.
But if he really wants her to choose?
"I like my life now," she said. "This is how I lived when you were not around. I am living a good life."
After hearing this, Shen Wangjin said slowly: "That means you won't choose me?"
She turned her face slightly to avoid him.
But the next moment——
"Ah You!"
Zhuang Yibo suddenly turned his head to look at him, feeling aggrieved and unwilling to accept it.
However, Shen Wangjin calmly took possession of everything she had and said calmly: "Since you don't choose me, you can't blame me for being ruthless."
