"It's not that I can't feel it, it's that I don't dare, you know? I don't dare!" The tears she had been holding back slipped from her eyes and rolled down her cheeks.
Beitang Yao looked at the tears on her face in a daze, his heart somewhat in disarray. Had he pushed her too hard?
He leaned forward, his cool lips approaching her cheek, speaking softly, "Don't be like this, I won't do anything to hurt you again, believe me this time, okay? Qian Qian, I beg you, don't be so cold, I really want to give you a home, and the children a complete family."
"If you won't accept me, then at least think of it for the children's sake, can we not come together again for them? Don't you want the children to have a warm family?"
Xia Qingqian kept her eyes closed, afraid to look at him. His words struck her heart; when had she not wanted to give the children a warm home too? But she was worried, she was afraid.
