Shen Ruojing’s footsteps paused.

She suddenly quickened her pace, walked over, and reached out her arms to hug him.

Chu Cichen’s body slightly paused, then he patted Shen Ruojing’s back and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Shen Ruojing suppressed the sudden sourness in her throat and said softly, “It’s nothing. Maybe it’s because I’m getting married tomorrow, so I’m feeling a bit emotional.”

Upon hearing this, Chu Cichen’s body slightly stiffened, then he smiled and said, “Jingjing, you finally seem like a normal woman now.”

Shen Ruojing pushed him away, rolled her eyes, and said with a smile, “What do you mean? Am I not like a woman?”

“It’s not that. It’s just that the previous Jingjing, no matter what she did, was always calm and composed. Now I finally see the shyness of the girl who is about to get married!” Chu Cichen’s words didn’t make Shen Ruojing laugh.

Instead, she looked at Chu Cichen seriously and said slowly, “Actually, I’m just an ordinary girl. Although I’m strong myself, I also hope to be protected by my husband, to be able to grow old together with someone.”

“Chu Cichen, promise me that no matter what happens, you won’t leave me.” Shen Ruojing said earnestly.

Her serious expression made Chu Cichen feel for a moment that she seemed to see through something.

But upon closer inspection, he found that the corners of the woman’s peach blossom eyes were curved, and she smiled, saying, “What are you looking at? This is something an ordinary woman would say. But…”

“Chu Cichen, I’m not an ordinary woman. In this world, I can live without anyone. I have never relied on a man, and my shoulders are reliable too.”

Chu Cichen breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s good that she didn’t notice.

But when he carefully considered the meaning behind her words, Chu Cichen’s jaw suddenly tightened.

Yes.

She has always been such a strong woman, never relying on anyone.

She has only relied on herself.

So Chu Cichen has never worried that she would not be fine if he left.

He was at ease with her.

The reason he chose Song Chen was to make her happier.

If Song Chen accepts his memories of the past six years, then he will also have his wisdom…

Thinking like this, Chu Cichen nodded, “Yes, I know you’ve always been this kind of woman.”

Shen Ruojing then asked again, “Why did you come to find me so late?”

“Didn’t I tell you before that I wanted to surprise you?” Chu Cichen said, and he clearly noticed Shen Ruojing’s momentary daze.

Chu Cichen asked, “What’s wrong?”

Shen Ruojing smiled, “Nothing, I just thought that was your excuse for being busy. 1 didn’t expect a real surprise.”

“I will never deceive you.” Chu Cichen said slowly, then he held her hand and led her to the car.

Shen Ruojing followed him, and when she saw that he was about to put her in the passenger seat, she held the car door and smiled, “I’m the one driving, and you haven’t really sat in the driver’s seat, have you?”

When the two were together, it seemed that Chu Cichen was mostly the one driving.

Even though Shen Ruojing liked riding motorcycles and was skilled in driving, she rarely drove.

Chu Cichen hesitated for a moment.

Shen Ruojing laughed, “Tonight, I’ll let you experience what speed and passion mean.”

Shen Ruojing went directly to the driver’s seat and sat in, then waved to Chu Cichen, who sat in the passenger seat.

After the car started, it didn’t pick up much speed but drove steadily on the road.

Chu Cichen asked, “Where’s the excitement?”

Shen Ruojing smiled, “This is the capital. Although it’s late at night, I don’t want to break traffic rules. If you want to experience excitement, I’ll take you to a dedicated racetrack another day.”

“… Alright.” I really hope that day will come.

“By the way, where are we going?”

Shen Ruojing’s question brought Chu Cichen back to his senses.

Chu Cichen mentioned an address.

Shen Ruojing followed his instructions and drove directly to the destination. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The two of them arrived quickly at the place Chu Cichen pointed out.

Shen Ruojing was curious throughout the journey, not knowing what surprise Chu Cichen had prepared for her. So when they arrived, she looked around, hoping to see something.

But she didn’t expect the car to turn into a suburban park just like that.

She parked the car by the roadside and got out of the car with Chu Cichen.

Chu Cichen held her hand and walked toward the edge of the park.

It was pitch black around them, with only the moonlight providing illumination.

Shen Ruojing joked, “This is a good place for burying bodies.”

Chu Cichen couldn’t help but speak, “What’s on your mind all the time? Think of something romantic.”

Shen Ruojing laughed.

The trees cast flickering shadows, and the night breeze blew. Her hand was held by a warm and powerful grip, making Shen Ruojing feel extremely comfortable.

She even had a feeling of wanting to hold this man’s hand and walk through life together.

But every journey has its end, and soon Chu Cichen stopped and said, “Jingjing, look..”
