Chapter 357: Marriage Doesn’t Bind Two People Together.
Chapter 357
"Huo Jian Sheng interrupted Li Man, saying, 'I understand what you mean. If I wanted children, I would have gotten married a long time ago and wouldn't have waited until now. I have already become indifferent about it. Now, it's just a matter of you. Let me ask you again, if your daughter doesn't approve of us being together, would you give me up?'"
Li Man lowered her gaze, afraid to look at Huo Jian Sheng any longer. She didn't know how to answer this question.
She didn't want to enter into marriage with Huo Jian Sheng at the moment. She wanted them to lead separate lives, not interfering with each other's work and personal lives. If they wanted to see each other, they could meet occasionally.
The current state of things was fine for her.
She was still considering that if her daughter didn't like Huo Jian Sheng, she could simply not bring him home in the future, and they could still go on dates outside.
"Say something," a restrained voice came from above.
Li Man knew he was angry again. She reached out and held Huo Jian Sheng's hand, softly saying, "Don't be angry. I don't want to get married yet, so I haven't thought about this question."
"But do you think about it now? Would you give me up because of your daughter?"
Huo Jian Sheng felt that Li Man didn't have him in her heart, and it made him feel uncomfortable.
Li Man held Huo Jian Sheng's large hand, feeling its warmth. She whispered, "If we don't get married, then this question wouldn't arise, and I don't want to leave you."
Huo Jian Sheng reached back with his hand and pulled Li Man into his embrace, resting his chin on top of her head. He asked in a deep voice, "Then, do you have me in your heart? Do you like me?"
Li Man nodded and said, "Yes, I like you."
Huo Jian Sheng still felt gloomy and said, "You like me, but you don't want to marry me?"
"Is marriage necessary when you like someone?" Li Man asked, feeling like a mess when she said those words.
"Then when you like someone, have you never thought about being together for a lifetime?" Huo Jian Sheng was quite frustrated.
Li Man used to like Huang De Han. Even if he had no money, she was willing to spend her life with him. She was aiming for a lifetime, but what was the result?
Li Man sighed and said, "Actually, without marriage, if two people love each other, they can still be together for a lifetime. Marriage doesn't bind two people together."
"I don't really mind, but don't you feel aggrieved?" Huo Jian Sheng asked.
Li Man smiled and said, "I don't feel aggrieved. I think the current situation is fine. Maybe we haven't spent enough time together, so I don't want to step into marriage yet. I'm just afraid of holding you back. If one day you want children and you tell me, and I can't give birth, then I'll leave you. You can find another woman to marry and have children with. Is that okay?"
"You're so generous? Not only do you not get jealous, but you also offer me to other women?" Li Man forced a bitter smile. "If you fall in love with someone else, do you think I can stop you? Even if we get married, I still won't be able to stop you."
Huo Jian Sheng's anger subsided in his heart. In fact, he didn't insist on marrying Li Man. He was just worried that Li Man would leave him because of her daughter.
The two of them stood embraced in the snowy field, unaware that Huang De Han had seen everything.
He wanted nothing more than to rush up and give this pair of lovebirds a good beating.
To be hugging and cuddling in broad daylight, it's just disgraceful and shameless!
Li Man accompanied Huo Jian Sheng back to the hotel.
Even if Huo Jian Sheng came to visit Li Man, she never let him stay overnight at her place.
