Chapter 125 Cozy_4

From the first day he met Ling Xi, Sheng Jingyi knew that her heart was cold, almost entirely devoid of warmth; it was only later that he realized it might be due to the heartaches she had suffered in the past. Thus, her heart had always been difficult to warm, and so, he allowed himself to adopt a different façade to face her, letting her get used to his presence.

As time passed, he found that he was not so easily contented; he yearned for the girl in his heart to belong to him entirely, mind, body, and soul. He would not allow the existence of any other man in her heart, not even the slightest trace; but still, he couldn't bring himself to be harsh with her.

Gradually, perhaps out of habit, Ling Xi became less resistant to his touch, no longer rejecting his contact, and slowly, she completely accepted him. At that time, he was overjoyed, truly, indescribably happy.
