Propose

Ren Chuqing and Wen Muqing entered the lounge, where Wen Muqing had her sit on the couch and poured her a cup of warm water.

"Thank you," she said, accepting the cup.

He looked down at her with scrutiny, even in saying thanks, there was an unfamiliarity, as if she was telling him that no matter how hard he tried, he could never bridge the distance between them.

"Are you still angry with me?" he murmured, crouching down in front of her.

In that moment, as he gazed up at her, his posture conveyed a sense of looking up.

"I'm not angry with you," Ren Chuqing stated indifferently.

"If you really aren't angry, then why are you so distant with me?" Wen Muqing said, "If you're angry about that day when I took you against your will, I can apologize. I was too angry that day, which is why I did it, and it won't happen again."

His pleading demeanor hardly seemed like that of the man who commanded fear in City Yan as the leader of the Wen Family!
