I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 106 Then, I will completely hand you over to me.

"Goo-"

Zhou Heng swallowed a couple of times, as if his throat was dry, and his gaze began to wander over Yin Mengran...

wrong!

Zhou Heng quickly shook his head, held out his hand, and said, "No, no... If my mom finds out, she'll beat me to death..."

"It's okay if I don't tell Mom... or should I..."

Yin Mengran turned her head to the side, her eyes looking down with a hint of melancholy at her exposed shoulder...

"You don't want...to be with me..."

"Holy crap! I really want to!"

Zhou Heng grabbed Yin Mengran's arms with both hands, his gaze intensely burning. Yin Mengran was startled for a moment, and the desolation in her eyes vanished instantly.

She thought that Zhou Heng's hesitation meant he didn't want to touch her and wasn't interested in her...

But seeing Zhou Heng's state and the strength with which he gripped her arm, he didn't seem uninterested at all.

Well... if he's hesitant, he must have his reasons...

"So... what do you think...?"

Yin Mengran quietly asked Zhou Heng what he thought; she only wanted to do her part to help him.

So in the end, we still have to listen to Zhou Heng's opinion.

"I..."

Zhou Heng paused, gazing into Yin Mengran's large, watery eyes. The words he wanted to say seemed stuck in his throat, refusing to come out...

"This is my first time in a relationship, and I...don't...want us to rush things to that point, especially with such an absurd reason as satisfying my personal desires...because we haven't even...kissed yet..."

Zhou Heng's voice grew softer and softer, but no matter how soft it was, Yin Mengran, who was standing right next to him, could hear it clearly.

Every word of that sentence struck Yin Mengran's heart like a hammer blow.

She hadn't expected that Zhou Heng thought that way...

Indeed, they haven't even kissed each other on the lips yet, and now they're going to do *that*? It seems a bit absurd, like a transaction involving money, not like their first precious relationship...

She was initially a little disappointed, but after hearing Zhou Heng's reason, she felt none of that anymore.

After all, only someone who truly cares about this relationship would think this way...

If Zhou Heng and she had actually continued what they were doing, their relationship might have soured afterward...

After dating for just over a week, the sweet and sour feeling of innocence will definitely fade. After all, you've already slept together, so why be shy?

However... Zhou Heng did just say that he really wanted to...

"Then we really won't..."

Zhou Heng released his hands and asked softly, "In your mind, how long after you've been together should you do this kind of thing?"

Yin Mengran paused for a moment, then replied, "Well... if it's Zhou Heng, then it's possible anytime..."

"No, no, no, just tell me your true feelings. How long do you think would be appropriate?"

"Hmm... about... a year."

After thinking for a while, Yin Mengran gave this answer.

In reality, her true thoughts before marriage were...

Because she felt that everything was uncertain before marriage, and she couldn't accept giving her body away under such uncertainty.

However, after the changes that occurred in her family, she never had that thought again.

Because she'd already considered marrying just anyone, she knew she wouldn't be able to keep that plan...

Now, when she speaks of a year to Zhou Heng, it's because she doesn't want to wait too long, nor does she want Zhou Heng to wait too long.

"Okay, then it'll be a year. By then, we'll have graduated, right? ...At that time, I'll completely hand you over to me, okay?"

Zhou Heng reached out and gently stroked Yin Mengran's face, saying...

Yin Mengran pursed her lips, nodded, and responded with a soft "Mmm!"

Then she stretched out her arms and hugged Zhou Heng's body.

She offered herself to him, but was rejected; however, she was not disappointed at all.

On the contrary, she likes Zhou Heng even more now, even more than before.

I underestimated his seriousness about the relationship, and Zhou Heng's desire to take responsibility for me...

Sure enough, this is the Zhou Heng she likes best...

Zhou Heng glanced at the table, looking at the cut fruit, and thought to himself:

"I'm kind of... looking forward to graduation..."
