Just now, every word she said to him was clearly remembered in his heart. He wasn't trying to ignore it, but... he didn't know how to console her.
He couldn't walk away now; that would mean all his efforts were in vain.
Yet he equally didn't want to hurt her.
The deal with William was merely so he could be with her without any burdens.
He wanted to give her a lifelong promise.
But in the end, the person who hurt her the most was himself.
Pei Yuanchen thought about this and couldn't help but break into a bitter smile, then let out a long sigh.
"He Ziyi." He pulled her tighter into his arms, softly calling her name, yet the woman was completely unaware.
He laughed hoarsely.
...
Ziyi slept very comfortably this time.
She hadn't slept embraced with him for a long time.
When she woke up, daylight had already filled the room.
In front of her was the man's sexy chest.
She couldn't help but reach out and touch it, but he quickly grabbed her wrist.
