The Long-awaited Mr Han

But, how come?

"You're so good, why would you not be worthy of me?" Shi Xiaoya found it hard to believe even when she said it out loud. "I don't think you're old."

She mumbled, "And you're not… you're not much older than me. Also, the divorce wasn't your fault. I don't understand why she didn't know how to cherish you when you're so good. If it's me, I would definitely hold on tight to you and not let you go."

"It's probably because that marriage was one without feelings," Han Zhuoling said, smiling.

Shi Xiaoya shook her head. "So what?"

To be honest, if it were not a family-arranged marriage but one that had had to rely on getting both of them to like each other, how would Xia Yixin have stood a chance to marry Han Zhuoling?

It was only because it was a family-arranged marriage that Xia Yixin could get her wish.

Since she knew Han Zhuoling did not like her, she had the right to choose.

To marry, or not to marry.

But since she chose to marry him, why could she just not treat him nicely?

She never tried herself, yet she ended up blaming Han Zhuoling for not treating her well enough.

"Anyway, I don't think you're that much older than me, and I don't mind that you had a past marriage," Shi Xiaoya said.

Han Zhuoling broke into a wide smile. "I know you won't mind. But I just feel that this is my disadvantage. It's not fair to you either."

Shi Xiaoya shook her head. "If I met you before you got married, you probably wouldn't have liked me either."

His heart was all on his work, and he would not give anyone a second look.

"I'm also… also thankful… that you were once married. Or else…" Shi Xiaoya said in a small voice, "How would we even be involved?"

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Han Zhuoling could not help but burst out laughing.

She was being too cute with her honesty!

Han Zhuoling could not help but caress Shi Xiaoya, who was in his embrace, fervently, as if he was caressing a doll.

He caressed Shi Xiaoya until she was dazed.

"How are you so cute!" Han Zhuoling laughed happily and hugged her tight before kissing her lips hard.

He did not wait for Shi Xiaoya to protest in pain before his lips and tongue met hers.

When Han Zhuoling finally let go, Shi Xiaoya's lips were already embarrassingly red.

"Anyway, I have the intention of marrying you and being with you. Or else, if I was just teasing you, won't that make me a playboy?" Han Zhuoling said. "You are the first and only woman I want to marry in my life so far. This is the first time I fell in love with someone—the first time I initiated the idea of marriage."

"If I can't marry you, it will be the greatest regret of my life," Han Zhuoling said. "So, your worries won't ever happen. There won't be anything over which we would not agree. If you don't mind that I'm much older than you or that I have a past marriage, then, I think, aside from these things, there won't be anything else for you to consider."

"Furthermore—" Han Zhuoling smoothened out the hair on her forehead as if he was taking care of a child and said, "Even if you don't think so, it's a fact that I am nine years older than you."

"Since that's the case, what's there that I can't give in to you and pamper you about? Those who broke up with each other, there's nothing about their personality that doesn't match, they just don't like to compromise and love themselves more. If their personalities really did not match, they won't realize it only after so long and then decide to break up."

"Don't even talk about how you have a good personality. Even if you're really a little more delicate and spoiled, I will also be willing to indulge in you," Han Zhuoling said in a gentle voice.

Shi Xiaoya nodded somberly.

She felt very lucky that Han Zhuoling was being a little domineering and refusing to let her reject him.
