Chapter 468 - 468: Then I’ll Stay With Her For A Lifetime
Shi Jun knew Wen Yanqing’s concerns. It had not been easy for him in this relationship. From the beginning, with him not being able to get what he wanted, to now, with them being were in love. He had also gone from watching from afar in the past, to them accompanying each other day and night.
From being careful to gradually letting go, he seemed to be happier day by day.
“This isn’t like you.” Shi Jun smiled and said, “If she doesn’t agree to your proposal the first time, you can ask again next time. Back then, when you weren’t with Lin Gantang, you confessed quite a few times, right? Why is it that you weren’t afraid of failure in the past, but now you are?”
“Because I hadn’t gotten it before, so the worst result was remaining alone. But can it be the same now?” Wen Yanqing asked.
He had obtained so much. It was like a dream. If he failed, wouldn’t his dream be shattered?
“But what if it succeeds?” Shi Jun asked. “If you succeed, you can get married.”
“You yourself said ‘what if’.” Wen Yanqing lowered his head and said, “I want to be 100% sure that she wouldn’t back down before daring to ask her for a definite answer. But other than ‘I will’, I can’t accept any other answer.”
If she left, she might as well kill him.
“You…” Shi Jun sighed. “She has already moved in with you. Doesn’t that imply that she wants to be with you forever?”
“Being together in love is different from being together in marriage,” Wen Yanqing spoke in a low voice with a hint of despondence. “The last time her friend came over, I overheard them chatting. Only then did I know that Tangtang doesn’t have high expectations for marriage.”
“What do you mean? She doesn’t want to marry you?” Shi Jun frowned and sat up straight. If that was true, then Lin Gantang was a bit of a s*umbag. Wen Yanqing was with her so wholeheartedly; was she playing around with him? If it was true, then he felt bad for his good friend.
Wen Yanqing shook his head. “No, it’s just that she’s afraid of marriage itself. She might be more at ease with our current state in the dating phase.”
Shi Jun finally understood why Wen Yanqing had suddenly did not moved ahead with proposing. Based on how much he cared about Lin Gantang, it was probably because he did not want to pressure her after hearing what she and her friend had said.
But he didn’t quite understand. “Afraid of marriage? It can’t be, right? Then why was she willing to marry Gu Zhichuan?”
Shi Jun immediately shut his mouth when Gu Zhichuan’s name escaped.
Why? Perhaps Gu Zhichuan was the reason?
“Fear of marriage isn’t a big problem, right? Just grit your teeth and take the last step.” Shi Jun wanted to persuade him. “Nowadays, there are many men and women who have a fear of marriage, but there are very few people who really choose to be single. Why do you think? Uncle Lin is quite satisfied with you. I think that if there are no accidents, you will get married sooner or later. After all, there are family factors.”
Wen Yanqing lowered his eyes. “I don’t want her to marry me because of Uncle’s pressurizing I also don’t want her to choose to make do with me because she thinks that we’re compatible.”
He was really getting more and more greedy. A simple relationship could not satisfy him.
He now wanted to them become each other’s true love. He wanted a love that went both ways. He wanted them to choose to have children and spend the rest of their lives together because they loved each other.
“I understand. Everything is fine, so love can be pursued.” Shi Jun leaned back on the sofa and looked at him. “Then what are you going to do? Are you just going to follow her lead?”
Or else? Wen Yanqing lowered his head and smiled faintly. “If she doesn’t want to get married in the end, if she likes it this way, then I’ll just be in a relationship with her for the rest of my life..”
