Pet name
There were times where Nian Jiezhen admired how open he was when it came to intimate things and how he didn't have a hard time expressing his feelings for her.
She clenched her fists tight and averted her eyes from him. "I... I love you... and..." She paused. Why was she holding herself back? Yes, she was almost at her 30 and yet she has never experienced sleeping with someone. Shouldn't this be a good time to lose her virginity to someone she loves?
She looked at him and tried her best not to look away, "I do want you, Shiyuan... But I don't think I'm ready. I was serious when I told you that... I'll do it with you after we get married."
"I understand." He held her hand and smiled, "I told you right? We can have sex later... There are other ways of pleasing ourselves with each other. For example..." He trailed off and released her from his hug.
