Shen Yi knew that Jiao Jiao was far more clear-headed and rational now. His charms and gentle approach weren't working. All he could do was wait, hoping that the constant dripping would eventually wear away the stone.
Not that he held out much hope of winning her over on their wedding night anyway.
So Shen Yi simply said, "Good night," then turned and went into the inner room. He grabbed a change of clothes and headed to the back room to take... a cold shower.
'If I don't take a cold shower, I probably won't get any sleep tonight.'
After Shen Yi left, Qin Jiao breathed a sigh of relief. She had been entangled with this one man for two lifetimes, and her most intimate moments had all been with him.
Emotionally, having been reborn, Qin Jiao had no intention of staking her entire future on one man as she had in her past life. She believed that only by being strong and self-reliant could she live a good life.
