The early autumn wind blew from behind Lu Shaoyuan, its rustling sound piercing the dead silence.
Shen Ningning stood stunned for a long moment before her pink lips parted. "Actually, I could give it a try... Following our original plan, I mean. We could see how a fake marriage goes."
'After all, Lu Shaoyuan is so good to me. When I was at my most desperate, I made such an outrageous request, and he actually agreed, going along with my absurd plan.' Shen Ningning thought. 'I don't know how to repay such kindness.'
Lu Shaoyuan smiled and shook his head. "Why bother? I know that even before the accident, you wanted to tell me you didn't want to get engaged. You just never brought it up because you were afraid of hurting me."
"Ningning, you always sacrifice your own feelings to take care of others. But I can't bear to hold you back any longer. Seeing you hide your sorrow these past few days has been hard on me too."
