Qin Gengxin didn't say anything. He let her restrain himself. Her eyes were calm at the sight of his indifferent expression, as if she wanted him to make a decision no matter what.

He slowly looked down and saw her exposed cleavage. He sighed, raised his eyes, and met her cat-like gaze. Only after a long time did he finally move his stiff arm that she was pressing. "My hand, it's gone numb …."

Xian Guiying didn't move away but only looked at him.

Seeing that she still didn't move, Qin Gengxin gazed at the emotions in her eyes. Then, he sighed again.

Xian Guiying frowned when she heard his sudden sigh. Just as she was about to ask what he meant, her vision suddenly blurred, and she was forcefully pushed back onto the bed by him. She raised her head in shock, but Qin Gengxin suddenly lowered his face until there was an inch left between them.

"Xian Guiying." He locked his eyes with hers and said through gritted teeth, "I said, I hate being forced!"

Xian Guiying frowned. "I've never …"

"Do you really think that the feelings from all those years ago did not exist? Do you think I, Qin Gengxin, can't feel anything? "This time, he pressed down on her arm instead, not giving her the slightest chance to struggle or move.

His eagle-like gaze locked onto her eye. "All those years I keep you by my side, do you think it's because of your brother? Yes, Xian Zihao is my good friend, but he is not the one who can't oppose me whenever he wants to."

Xian Guiying immediately understood something from his words, but at the same time, she also didn't understand what he was saying. She gave up on struggling and just laid on her back, staring at him with wide eyes.

As he spoke, his nose touched hers, and from time to time, his lips would touch the corners of her mouth.

"I already told you then that I didn't want to hurt you! But you kept asking for trouble and forcing me! Tell me, what you're going through now, was it something that I'm forcing on you?"

Xian Guiying wanted to raise her hand, but Qin Gengxin held her hand firmly. He interlocked his fingers with hers and fiercely pushed her hand into the blanket. "You haven't even figured out what kind of man I am. What qualifications do you have to talk about these eleven years with me?!"

Xian Guiying was forced to the point that she couldn't breathe. She looked at him, his chest pressed down on hers. Her face was flushed red, but she refused to open her mouth to beg for mercy.

"When you know what the real Qin Gengxin looks like, then you can talk about those eleven years of deep love!" After he said this word by word, he suddenly let go of her hand, stood up, and prepared to leave.

However, Xian Guiying suddenly grabbed his arm. She stood up and squeezed his arm while breathing heavily, "What do you mean by that? What is the real you? What do you mean you don't want to hurt me? Explain yourself!"

Qin Gengxin frowned and wanted to get rid of her directly, but she suddenly wrapped her arms around him tightly like a vine. She insisted on holding him back and asked, "What's wrong? Why can't you say it? Why are you acting so secretively? I'm not like any other woman, so what are you afraid of?"

Qin Gengxin closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He raised his hand to push her away and said impatiently, "Your ankle is still hurt. Lie down and stay asleep. I have to go to the company. I don't have time to play with you."

Xian Guiying refused to let go and continued to cling to his body.

"I said let go!"

"What's the matter with you? I won't let you go if you don't say it!" This was the first time in Xian Guiying's life that she had forced someone in that manner.

Her arms wrapped around Qin Gengxin's neck tightly, while her body stuck to his. Her eyes were filled with determination. "Qin Gengxin, before I completely give up on this marriage, don't think that I will let you away before not answering my question! That was not the real Xian Guiying! The real Xian Guiying is what you see now. You must tell me the truth or I won't let you go!"

Qin Gengxin frowned and pushed her back against the bed, causing her to lose her balance due to her ankle injury.

He looked away from her and took a deep breath. "There's no need for you to go to such an extent. I'm not worth it."

With that, he turned around and walked to the door.

Xian Guiying just looked at his figure and didn't chase after him. One of the reasons was her injury, while the other was because if he didn't want to say it, no matter how much she forced him, it would useless.

But after so many years, she finally realized that he had another reason. So, how could she sit still?

For the past two years, she had kept to herself and lowered her self-respect to receive his love, but he continued treating her with indifference. She once had heard a story.

There's a man who likes bananas, but if you gave him a load of apples, and then you asked him why he wasn't moved, he just looked at you indifferently. Then you told him that you spent all your money to buy him a load of apples, but in the end, he was not the least bit touched, then there was definitely a problem with his character! So, yes, Qin Gengxin just liked that. He was a stone-hearted person.

It was because she heard this story that she had never felt that he had let her down in any way. Other than the fact that he had ignored his daughter for the past two years, Xian Guiying truly had no complaints.

It didn't matter who was in the right or wrong anymore. She had even chosen to let go. She had chosen to retreat and had chosen to let go of this path of life.

But the words he just said were still ringing in her ears. What kind of man was Qin Gengxin? There really was a reason why he was forced to say such words.

What did he mean by that?
