Chapter 223: Porcelain Bumping

Zhang Xiaowei felt like he had been struck by lightning, his whole body freezing in shock.

It took a while before he felt the warmth of Qin Yuru in his arms and came back to his senses.

"Sister Qin, what are you doing?"

Although Zhang Xiaowei had long been moved, he had never thought about being involved with Qin Yuru in this way.

Today, with Qin Yuru suddenly saying these words, he naturally could not agree.

"Xiaowei, do you despise me because I'm a woman who has had a child?"

Qin Yuru was startled, immediately sitting up, her eyes reddening.

Seeing her look so wronged and pitiful, Zhang Xiaowei hastily shook his head to deny it.

He gritted his teeth and wrestled with the decision for a long time before he steeled his resolve.

"Sister Qin, I indeed have feelings for you. But I didn't help you just to get something in return. The high price you paid for the matsutake mushrooms from our village was also a great favor to me, and I've done these things out of gratitude."
