1420. Chapter 1420: Tenderness Under the Moonlight 8

Shangguan Yun saw that I had stopped speaking, so he also fell silent, following me as we lifted our heads to look at the sky.

"Are you cold?" Shangguan Yun asked lightly.

I shook my head and said, "It's not cold; with you by my side, I don't feel cold."

"Xuanxuan, let's make up." Shangguan Yun said, looking at me with blazing eyes.

I weakly shook my head again and said, "Shangguan Yun, don't bring this up again—I love you, you should know that, but please let me rest for a while, okay? I feel exhausted, really exhausted."

"Are you tired being with me?" After hearing my words, Shangguan Yun's brows knotted tightly, releasing a chill of a thousand years.

I shook my head again and said, "No, being with you makes me feel happy, but sometimes I feel tired; I'm afraid, afraid that such a thing will happen again—that heart-rending pain I truly don't want to experience again, truly don't want to, I'm really scared—can you understand my feelings?"

After hearing my words, Shangguan Yun gently grasped my shoulder with his trembling hand and said: "Xuanxuan, it's my fault toward you; I shouldn't have distrusted you, I shouldn't have listened to others' words. I understand you—you wouldn't do anything to let me down. But that's also because I love you too much, I care about you too much, you know? No matter what you do to me, I can forgive it, but I cannot allow you to betray me—I will never allow it; I've told you many times already, I will not allow it." Shangguan Yun looked at me tenderly, trying to lower his voice as he spoke.

"I trust you, but I cannot trust others. I know you want me to be happy, I believe you wholeheartedly wish for my happiness, yet I cannot trust others." I said calmly.

At that moment, my heart was very calm, very calm, as still as clear water on a lake, without a ripple.

"Xuanxuan, what exactly are you afraid of? Who are you afraid of? Who don't you trust?" Shangguan Yun asked, looking at me bewilderedly.
