Like holding the world's most precious treasure, Gong Lingtuo carefully kissed the girl in his arms, not hurriedly or impatiently, each kiss was very earnest.
She had always been very obedient.
But when he kissed her lips, she suddenly stiffened, clearly showing resistance.
So he stopped.
He would not upset her.
To soothe her, to make her understand that he posed no threats to her, he pulled away a bit and continued to gently smooth her long hair.
Sure enough, gradually, the girl's emotions settled down again, her body was no longer so rigid, and the vigilance in her eyes slowly faded away.
He looked at her and asked again, "Tell me, what exactly happened that made you decide to give up our marriage?"
This time, Jia Xuan was no longer silent, she said, "Didn't I say earlier, I fell for someone else."
