C2948 I'm Not Your Canary
Along the way back to the mansion, Ding Ruirui and Shen Guanlin did not speak a word.
Through the rearview mirror, Shen Guanlin had been paying attention to Ding Ruirui's expression from the corner of his eye, and the big hand holding the steering wheel unconsciously exerted force.
His eyes were deep, and there was a flash of gloominess and stubbornness in his expression.
He admitted that he had been impulsive earlier, but when he saw Zhao Si Jiao so close to her, he could not control the anger in his heart.
Ding Ruirui belonged to him alone, so how could he let other men praise her?
No!
Shen Guanlin's gaze fell on the red mark on her chin that had yet to fade. His eyes flashed. The only regret he had was accidentally hurting Ding Ruirui.
She was afraid that she was very disappointed in him now.
How could he let Ding Ruirui continue to stay by his side...
Shen Guanlin withdrew his peripheral vision and his gaze became deeper and deeper.
The carriage was terrifyingly quiet. Soon, they reached home. Shen Guanlin and Ding Ruirui returned to her room together.
The door closed and Ding Ruirui quietly sat on the bed.
The warm afternoon sun shone through the floor-to-ceiling window on the floor, stretching the few of them.
Ding Ruirui lowered her eyes and her mind was in a mess.
She did not know how to face Shen Guanlin's stubborn love. She did not want to be a canary who lost her freedom and was kept in a golden cage...
Give him another chance. If Shen Guanlin could change, give her respect and trust, and no longer restrict her freedom, she was willing to stay.
But if he still insisted, she might make the same decision as last time - to leave.
Neither of them spoke first. The room was terrifyingly quiet.
Shen Guanlin's dark eyes were deep. His gaze was locked on her, and his eyes were filled with intense possessiveness and stubbornness.
It was the feeling of being stared at by a wild beast again... Ding Ruirui's scalp went numb and her hands subconsciously clenched the clothes on her body.
Finally, Shen Guanlin spoke first, "Sorry, I was too impulsive and hurt you."
His voice was low and carried a trace of uncontrollable trembling.
Hearing his apology, Ding Ruirui's eyes trembled. She raised her eyes and saw Shen Guanlin leaning against the wall.
The tall man's expression was desolate. His back was leaning against the wall. Half of his body was hidden in the shadows and the other half was exposed under the sunlight.
For some reason, Ding Ruirui felt weak and uneasy from his body. She pursed her lips and lowered her eyes once again.
Without waiting for Ding Ruirui's reply, Shen Guanlin's eyes became darker and darker and his voice became more and more hoarse, "Ruirui, I really know my mistake..."
"Shen Guanlin, I want to ask you a question." Before he could finish his words, Ding Ruirui gently interrupted him.
She stared at Shen Guanlin. Her eyes were very calm, carrying a trace of sadness.
Shen Guanlin was slightly stunned and nodded. "Go ahead."
"What do you think I am?"
Shen Guanlin frowned. Before he could say anything, he heard Ding Ruirui laughing at herself again. She continued, "Do you want me to become a canary that can't leave you?"1
Shen Guanlin's pupils constricted. He admitted that his possessive desire was really strong, so he had always disguised himself very well and played a proper role in front of Ding Ruirui.
He looked at the woman in front of him who could not hide her sadness. Her face was still gentle and beautiful, but it made him feel a little ethereal. It was as if as long as he admitted it, she would leave him forever.
It was only a moment of panic, Shen Guanlin quickly thought of a countermeasure.
He pretended to be surprised, and there was a trace of grief on his face. "Ruirui, what made you misunderstand? Why would I treat you as a canary?"
As he spoke, he paid attention to Ding Ruirui's expression. Seeing that she did not reject him so much, he heaved a sigh of relief. He continued, "After Ding Yaoyao kidnapped you last time, I was worried that something similar would happen again. That's why I cared about where you went every day... "
Ding Ruirui was stunned when she heard that. The dangerous situation last time was still vivid in her mind. If Shen Guanlin had not arrived in time, she was afraid that she would have already been bullied... Thinking of this, Ding Ruirui's heart tightened. Could it be that Shen Guanlin was protecting her?
She stared straight at Shen Guanlin. Other than sadness, there was no other expression on the man's face.
Could it be that she really misunderstood?
Ding Ruirui began to doubt her own thoughts, and her original thoughts began to waver.
Her series of expressions were seen by Shen Guanlin. In places that she could not see, a fleeting smile flashed across the man's face.
While the iron was hot, Shen Guanlin continued to speak, and his tone pretended to be downcast. "If you feel that I have offended you by doing this, then I apologize to you. I'm sorry, Ruirui. I'm just worried about you. I really don't want something terrible to happen again. If I am late and I am late, I am afraid... "
