Su Binâs face flushed crimson. âThatâs impossible! Iâve only experienced such reactions with you. It wouldnât happen with any other women!â
Qin Zhenzhen couldnât help but chuckle. âThatâs because you havenât been in close proximity to other women.â
Su Bin objected, his face still tinged with embarrassment. âI must protest your assumptions!â
Qin Zhenzhen retorted playfully, âObjection overruled!â
âYou canât judge without sufficient evidence.â
âExcuse me, have you ever acted similarly with other women?â
Su Bin genuinely hadnât. He hadnât even held hands with other girls.
Nevertheless, Su Bin thought quickly and admitted, âI concede that Iâm physically drawn to you, but my affection for you runs deeper in my heart.â
Qin Zhenzhenâs interest piqued. âDo you really understand what it means to have genuine feelings for someone?â
Seeing Su Bin remained silent, Qin Zhenzhen decided to enlighten him. âYouâre not familiar with it, are you? Allow me to elucidate what itâs like to truly care for someone.
Su Bin listened attentively.
âFirstly, my heart races whenever I see him. Every encounter quickens my pulse, and even my breath becomes shallower.â
âHave you ever experienced that?â
Su Bin responded promptly, âYes, I have!â
Qin Zhenzhen playfully tapped Su Binâs chest with her finger. âReally? Then why canât I detect your racing heart and shallow breath when you hug me?â âYou only seem to have these reactions when youâre close to me, donât you?â Qin Zhenzhenâs finger left Su Bin momentarily startled.
Everything she said seemed to make sense, yet something about it felt off.
During the time when he couldnât see her, he indeed longed for her company. Nevertheless, it was undeniable that his heart raced and his breath quickened most intensely when he held her close. Did this mean his affection was merely physical?
As Su Bin found himself lost in thought, Qin Zhenzhen added, âImmediate reactions upon physical contact are a manifestation of physical attraction, not emotional connection.â
Su Bin disagreed, feeling as if he were being portrayed as a creature ruled by base instincts. However, at that moment, he couldnât formulate a suitable counterargument.
Ignoring his reaction, Qin Zhenzhen continued her explanation.
âSecondly, you envision spending your entire life with that person. You imagine growing old together, hand in hand, and this deep connection leads to genuine love.â
âDo you ever think like that?â
Seizing the opportunity, Su Bin gently took hold of Qin Zhenzhenâs hand. âYes,
I do! I want to grow old with you, holding your hand through life.â
Caught off guard, Qin Zhenzhen attempted to withdraw her hand, but her effort inadvertently pulled Su Bin closer, bringing them into intimate contact once more.
Their eyes met, and Qin Zhenzhen swiftly withdrew her hand and pushed him away, realizing that her heart was racing.
This manâs presence was undeniably affecting her!
Stepping back until there was a comfortable distance between them, about three feet, Qin Zhenzhen concealed her racing heart behind a facade of composure.
âPlease note that Iâm referring to one person here, not two or several!â she declared firmly.
This served as a reminder to Su Bin that if he truly had feelings for her, he had to accept the idea of spending the rest of his life with her.
Observing Qin Zhenzhenâs reactions, Su Bin noticed the telltale signs of a racing heart and rapid breath.
It struck him that her response mirrored the very same reaction theyâd experienced that night when they pretended to share the same room.
So, she was in the same boat as him!
This realization brought Su Bin a sense of reassurance.
When he responded to Qin Zhenzhen, his tone was sincere and earnest. âMy dear, donât worry. I promise to marry only you. There wonât be another..â
