Chapter 182: 142 Fifth Master confesses, with marriage in mind [New Year’s Day message]_2

His gaze was scorching, as if to sear right into the depths of her heart.

“We can try to make it real.”

Outside, the fireworks were at their peak, “Bang—” exploding loudly, while the glow from the rockets flooding through the window bathed him in light.

The fireworks burst forth, the sound shaking her eardrums, throwing her breathing into disarray.

Everything seemed like a dream.

She felt a layer of sweat forming on her palms, perhaps because the sound of the fireworks was too loud, and he moved a bit closer.

“I enjoy being with you, and every time I see you, an unbidden joy rises in my heart…”

“I like you, and I respect you.”

“That’s why I don’t want you to feel compromised or uncomfortable in our interactions, not even slightly. If you think I’m still okay…”

“Maybe we can seriously consider marriage as a basis? What do you think?”

Jiang Jinsang spoke tentatively, not daring to say anything definitive before Tang Wan could respond.

Logically, at this moment, he should go all-in, risk everything to tell her he wanted to spend his life with her, but he feared being too aggressive, scaring her off instead.

Yet, Jiang Jinsang suddenly reached out and grasped her hand; her fingers were squeezed so tight, her knuckles had turned somewhat white, and the tension that had stifled her, with just his touch…

Collapsed completely.

Her body softened, and her heart was even more chaotic.

“Brother Wu…” Tang Wan’s voice was raspy.

“You don’t need to feel troubled. I’ll go to my brother’s room later. You can sleep here and think it over slowly. No need to rush your answer…”

Jiang Jinsang held her hand, their palms together, but his heart was even more nervous than hers.

Swallowing nervously, no one knew that his back was sweating from the tension.
