"That comment, Shen Li didn't like: 'Shen Xingchen, your life hasn't even started, and you're already trying to muddle through it?'"
Marrying just to avoid some nagging, Shen Li's expression turned grim. He had endured years of this and never once gave in.
Staring directly at her, Shen Li waited for an explanation, and Shen Xingchen said, "Of course, I still want to find someone suitable, someone I like. What I mean is, I don't have any plans of not getting married or starting a family. And since that's the case, wouldn't it be better to do it while I'm young?"
Shen Xingchen's honesty left Shen Li silent.
But in his heart, one thing was painfully clear: her feelings for him, those things she once clung to, had already been put away, already became a part of the past.
Oddly, while he should feel relieved about this, Shen Li found himself far from happy.
