Chapter 874: Why is Your Face So Red?_1

Zhou Yuan frowned deeply with a heart unwilling to be cruel, and said, "I... I respect your choice!"

The girl in his arms was just too tender.

She never rejected him.

No matter how many misunderstandings there had been, she never held a grudge, and yet now he was about to do this—wasn't that a bit too much of a bastard move?

Zhou Yuan's anger genuinely flared up.
