Let's Get Married

Long ago when Lorraine had to raise Eunice and Thomas who were still young, she also went door to door to borrow some money if she really encountered a difficult time. All the neighbours and relatives had lent her in which some lent one to two thousand yuan and some lent a few hundred yuan. Those who only lent a little amount would show the same expression as him when Lorraine went to return the money.

They told Lorraine that she did not need to return the money but the subtext was actually asking her not to contact them again in the future.

Eunice takes a deep breath with some grievance unconsciously, “I know four hundred thousand yuan is just an insignificant amount of money to you but for me, it’s the money which can save my mom’s life. It’s okay if you don’t care, but I can’t. I work hard to earn money to return it to you because I don’t want others to look down on me and I don’t want to be despised by you. I know my capability is limited and I can only pay you back this amount of money. This is already all I have; you still want to throw it away?”

Looking at her eyes which rapidly turn red, the depression in Ryan’s heart becomes more intense. For him, money is just a number and cash are just pieces of papers. She is the one who wants to hurriedly give him back the money but how come he, himself also becomes anxious?

He thinks about the meaning of her words. Is she doing all this to avoid being despised by him?

This thought flashes through Ryan’s mind and makes his heart feels more comfortable. He gazes at the tear-reddened eyes which are glowing in fury. Then, he reaches out his hand and clasps her jaw, “Is my opinion important to you?”

Ryan initially thinks that she will dodge this question and hesitate but she surprisingly nods and admits directly, “Yes, it’s very important.”

He feels that his heart is apparently struck by something. He subconsciously frowns and hears the heartbeats.

Ryan’s eyes are riveted at her, “Why?”

Eunice originally wants to say ‘Because I owe you money’ but when she looks into those attractive eyes, she suddenly keeps silent, not knowing how to answer.

Two minutes pass and she does not reply. They are somewhat dazed to look at each other.

Ryan’s hand which is holding her jaw uses some strength that is not that strong to make her feels pain. He makes a nasal, “Hmm?”

“Because…” she speaks softly, hesitating for a moment to find a less awkward-sounding reason, “I don’t want our relationship to involve money and material things.”

So the reason she wishes to return the money is not that she wants to cut all the relationship with him, but because she wants to make their relationship simpler? Ryan’s face looks better when he thinks about it.
