There was one thing that Bai Ruozhu didn't say, and that was her firm belief that Jiang Yichun wouldn't listen to rumors, nor would he distrust her.
They did not swear to each other eternal love on top of a mountain or next to the sea, but they had faced life-and-death situations together. They did not have a grand, passionate love story, but his soothingly quiet approach warm little by little her heart. Therefore, she believed in him, and he believed in her in the same way.
From another perspective, she had a tall, handsome, and relatively wealthy man; so why would she choose Meng Liangshen, who was just as old as her father? Why would she reject a man who was wholeheartedly devoted to marrying her, only to chase after an old man with a wife, concubines, and a bunch of children?
She mustn't have water in her brain!
Only a person with water in their brain would entertain such thoughts!
