"I want you to know that I have always liked you." Shen Qianyin paused, "I was drunk, but what I said was not nonsense." His tone was cautious, as if he was speaking to her and to himself.
"Me, the eldest brother is good to me, and I also like the eldest brother and the fourth sister."
Shen Qianyin's eyes were firm and he hurriedly explained: "No, I feel for you as a man and a woman."
Shen Yuerong's ears were empty, and she could only hear the sound of her own heartbeat, which was as clear and harsh as the broken strings of a piano. She didn't hate what her elder brother said, nor did she like it. It was hard to describe, but she just felt that her heart was in chaos...
A gust of cold wind blew through the gap in the window, and the candlelight swayed, holding Shen Qianyin's lonely back, swaying in front of her eyes. She looked confused and couldn't help but look at the slightly lonely man standing aside. The moment their eyes met, her heart was hit by an inexplicable emotion, and her hands under the quilt couldn't help but clenched.
It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be like this, she told herself over and over again that her eldest brother was just drunk, he was a white horse galloping on the grassland, he was the warm sun in the cold winter, and he would never be someone she could get along with.
"Brother also said that what he said was not nonsense. I'm going to sleep. Brother, please go back quickly." Shen Yuerong spoke urgently, rolled up the quilt tightly and turned her back to him.
The burning sound of the candlelight and the rapid beating of her heart made her feel more frightened than the ghostly sound of the cold wind outside.
Intention: Love is protection, and I want her to be able to protect herself!
