Never in her life had Su Jiu cried like this, except when she went to the movies and saw emotional scenes.
But her crying at those times was completely different from how she cried now.
Although she had been trying not to let the tears fall or cry out, they made Rong Si’s heart ache in a way he had never felt before. He felt like his chest was clogged with cotton, and he could barely breathe.
Rong Si thought he could remain calm in the face of any difficulty or problem, but now that he was facing her, he was at a loss. He didn’t know what to do. He would do anything to stop her from crying.
“I’m sorry! It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have asked such a question,” Rong Si said as he reached out to hug her. Su Jiu retreated two steps and pursed her lips without speaking, staring at him indignantly.
Rong Si was even more at a loss. He had never been one to express his emotions. The current situation seemed to be a hundred times more troublesome than the topic he was studying.
Su Jiu didn’t know why she felt this way, even though she thought that Rong Si, as her boyfriend, would care about her relationship with other boys. It was normal for him to ask such a question, but she felt terrible and wanted to cry.
Perhaps, she cared for him too much and didn’t want to allow him to doubt her.
She wanted him to be like her parents and grandfather. No matter what, to them, it was Xia Yi’s fault. She had done nothing wrong, and even if she had, they trusted her unconditionally and supported her.
Instead, she and Rong Si were at a stalemate.
Rong Si took a step forward, his deep eyes filled with self-reproach. “I’m sorry! I suddenly feel foolish. I don’t know what to do in a situation like this. I can’t even speak. I’ll just… make you angry.”
When Su Jiu saw how nervous he was, her nose suddenly ached even more. The tears that had been swimming in her eyes fell and rolled down her chin to the ground.
Rong Si’s heart instantly skipped a beat, as if he had been hit so hard that his face turned slightly pale.
I… I made her cry.
“Little Jiu, what do you want me to do? I’m sorry! You can hit me or scold me, but don’t cry, okay?”
He clumsily tried to comfort her. He even took her hand and pretended to slap his face. She quickly pulled her hand back and turned away from him, sobbing silently.
She didn’t want to cry, but she couldn’t control herself at this moment. Maybe she didn’t have to hide her emotions from him. She could show them. She didn’t have to hide them as she did with her family.
Do girls… get a bit melodramatic around their boyfriends?
“Little Jiu…” Rong Si stood behind her. He sounded pitiful. He was in a mess now, unable to think straight. He had completely lost his usual composure.
Su Jiu turned to him and said with red eyes, “I’m angry. I won’t calm down!”
Rong Si’s gaze was fixed on her, and he looked even more nervous. With some difficulty, he said, “Then… what do we do?”
Without a word, Su Jiu grabbed his hand and bit the back of it!
Rong Si winced, but let her bite him.
Su Jiu bit harder, but Rong Si’s gaze on her gradually softened. As long as she wasn’t angry with him, what was a small bite?
