"I want you!"

The low and concise words rang out again.

Although spoken lightly, they aggressively pressed against her heart.

Shen Fangxing's heart trembled fiercely.

She withdrew her hand and sat up straight again.

Looking at the rain outside the window gradually intensifying, she exerted a great deal of effort to gradually calm the incessant beating of her heart.

The inside of the car fell silent, while outside, rainwater collected and streamed down the windows like a curtain, gradually blurring the scenery outside.

After a while, Shen Fangxing spoke softly:

"You're right, I should start anew. Congratulations, you've become the... first man in my new life?"

Bo Jingchuan frowned.

"Let me rephrase that. Not the first man, but the only one."

Shen Fangxing tightened her hands in front of her.

She pondered for a moment, her heart still jumping at his earlier words.

"Bo Jingchuan... I can't bring myself to believe you."

She spoke as if it were a struggle, her words lacking conviction.

If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

It's not that she didn't want to believe, but she didn't want to bear the same consequences again.

She once believed in Su Heng without reservation, for eight years, without a doubt.

But what was the result?

How could she trust a man she barely knew?

To easily gamble her life on him?

She couldn't do it. She really couldn't.

Avoiding pain is human nature. Since nobody would shield her from the storm, she'd wrap herself up, becoming a hedgehog if need be.

However, Bo Jingchuan merely glanced at her faintly before speaking calmly.

"That's my concern."

"...," Shen Fangxing looked up at him.

"How to make you believe in me is my concern."

He repeated, then chuckled lightly, a faint gleam shimmering in his dark eyes.

"If I could easily obtain you, then perhaps my judgment would indeed be flawed. Your ignorance pleases me."

Shen Fangxing was stunned for a moment, feeling overwhelmed by the man in front of her.

She was really... a bit overwhelmed.

In the end, she could only helplessly brush her smooth forehead and sigh softly.

"It's not easy for you to give in."

Bo Jingchuan's voice was full of pleasure, instantly lifting the previously subdued atmosphere in the car.

"I didn't say I agreed to you."

The clearly improved atmosphere made Shen Fangxing feel as if this man had successfully proposed to her.

"I know." Bo Jingchuan's smile didn't fade.

"Why are you so happy?"

"Didn't you just agree to my pursuit?"

"Goodbye."

Shen Fangxing bit her lip silently, a hint of embarrassment crossing her delicate face.

She knew he was wise and astute, but his reaction seemed too quick.

She simply didn't want to deal with him. Was it up to her to decide whether to agree or not?

Would he just accept it if she refused?

There was no need to think too much about the answer.

After she finished speaking, she opened the door, but Bo Jingchuan reached out and grabbed her hand.

The warm palm enveloped her slender and fair hand, and the contact between their skin made Shen Fangxing's body stiffen slightly.

"What are you doing?"

"Xingxing."

Bo Jingchuan's low and magnetic voice slowly reverberated in the narrow car, spreading naturally and melodiously.

The two words seemed to have been brewing in his throat for a long time, murmuring around his lips, low and charming, natural and appealing.

Shen Fangxing's eyelashes trembled lightly.
