Your Beloved Sweetheart Is Online

Chapter 742 - 745: The Last Birthday 2_1

In that moment, she was lost in her thoughts, her mind a bit distant.

Before, he would quiz her about their past. Once, she had asked him if he found her burdensome, he borrowed a line from a micro-fiction, jesting, "It feels like the whole world is on my shoulders."

At that time, she was like a princess dipped in honey. She leaned towards his neck with joy, laid a confident and bold kiss on it, saying, "The kiss I just gave you now is to mark my possession. You are mine, belonging only to me."

Irresistibly, she pecked at his cheek again.

Shaocheng turned away slightly in distaste, but Chenxing leaned into his other side and gave him another peck.

The man grumbled, "Don’t slobber all over my face."

"Shaocheng, I know you’ve been good to me. I promise to never anger you again. Can you forgive me this time?" she pleaded.

However, he did not respond at all.

A man like him, once set on a decision, would not change his mind easily!

Indeed, Gu Shaocheng had made up his mind. He no longer wanted to hold her back, to ruin her life.

She was still young, only twenty, her life barely just beginning. There was a saying that it was better to endure short-term pain than long-term suffering. With a hardened heart now, it would spare her a future of facing his illness-ridden self. Gu Shaocheng was a man of firm resolve, but he couldn’t control his heart. Seeing her in danger, hearing her sweet pleas, looking into her clear and innocent eyes, his harsh words would be swallowed back before they could leave his lips.

A powerless man, in the end, could only choose to hold his tongue.

He didn’t think that she was deeply in love with him. A woman, who hesitated over whether or not to have an abortion, must have feelings for him rooted more in dependency than love.

Any woman would grow dependent on a man after spending a considerable amount of time with him. Especially when he had been so caring towards her. Even the coldest hearts could melt, but such emotional attachment could be overcome with time. Faced with continuous setbacks, her dependency on him would gradually fade. One day, she could choose a new life.

There was a pang of melancholy in Gu Shaocheng’s eyes, and a twinge of bitterness in his heart. He said absentmindedly, "No can do. Please remember, this is the first birthday you’ve spent with me, and it will also be the last."

In a few years, she might be only able to commemorate his death anniversary.

Her only birthday celebration with him...just the thought of it made Gu Shaocheng’s heart heavy. He inhaled deeply, "After tonight, don’t come looking for me anymore. Otherwise, each time I see you, I’ll spank you." He then slapped her bottom quite hard.

Chenxing stuck her tongue out behind his back, ignoring him. She pressed her lips together in silence, thinking, "We’ll see after tonight!"

As a deserted wife returned with elegance, she held the hand of the handsome man, making a grand entrance.

She even puffed her chest out and held her chin high.

Because her dress was quite ordinary, right before entering, Gu Shaocheng bought a crown that was on display in the hotel. He placed it on her head, which immediately upped her status manifold, making her look like a noble princess.
