Chu Zhan's eyes were bloodshot; he had never been this wrecked. "Nuannuan, stop making trouble. I know you're saying one thing but thinking another. You're scared this bastard will come after me. I'm telling you, I'm your man, not some fragile glass. I'm not afraid. No matter how many dirty tricks he plays, I can handle them. You have to trust me!"
Shi Nuan clenched her fingers, tears almost falling, but she forced them back. Her voice was cold and hoarse. "Chu Zhan, stop being unreasonable. I'm not going to be with you."
Nianyang couldn't help saying, "Nuannuan, don't be stupid. Whatever it is, we'll deal with it together. Don't be afraid of trouble. We're family, okay? Calm down a little, can you?"
Chu Zhan said shakily, "Nuannuan, the home you wanted—I already have it in my hands. You don't want it anymore?"
How could she not want it.
She dreamed of it.
But she couldn't afford it.
The price was too high.
