Let's Get Married novel Chapter 690

"What do you want?" He says helplessly. His voice fills with pampering and indulgence that he doesn't even notice.

Jasmine sniffs and doesn't say anything.

What does he mean by "What does she want"? From beginning to end, it is he who is being unreasonable. He is the one who is pushing her around, okay?!

Pehry is so upset by her crying but he isn't able to drop his pride to comfort her. So, he only snaps at her with a threat, "Do you believe that I will kiss you if you cry again?"

Jasmine ignores him and continues to cry.

"Alright, this is your real goal, isn't it?"

"...I don't want to see you." Seemingly afraid that he would kiss her, Jasmine finally speaks. She sounds vulnerable in such a sweet and soft voice, "You go."

"Don't cry yet."

"I won't cry if you leave."

"..."

Pehry feels defeated. He has never felt so helpless towards anyone before.

Right now, it is as if he is hanging in the air, neither going up nor down, not even having a single step.

He feels awkward.

"Isn't it just a bracelet? If you don't want to wear it, then don't wear it. Why did you throw things and cry? What kind of message that sends? Did I bully you?"

Jasmine looks up and glares at him with resentment, "You are bullying me."

Her watery eyes are melting Pehry's heart.

"Alright, alright. It's all my fault." The man grits his teeth and squeezes out the last half of his sentence. "I apologize to you."

One has to know that apart from apologizing to his parents, he has never admitted defeat in front of anyone, let alone a woman.

Evidently, Jasmine knows his temperament. She is surprised to hear him apologize. But she doesn't intend to forgive him like this. "I'm going home. Don't follow me."

"It's so late. How do you go back?" Pehry could not let her leave alone crying, "Get in the car, I'll drive you back."

"No." Jasmine refuses without thinking. She doesn't want to stay in the same space with him at all.

This attitude makes Pehry very upset. But he couldn't continue to force a crying girl, he has no choice but to say in a gentle tone, "Well, get in the car and I'll walk back on my own."

Jasmine is even more uneasy when he suddenly gives in. "No need, I'll just go back myself."

"Can't you stop making things difficult?" Pehry gets a little angry by her consecutive rejections. "Or I have to do something to make you get in the car?"

Isn't she just refusing to get in the car?

However, Jasmine doesn't dare to speak anymore when she sees the pair of gloomy eyes. She turns around and looks at the car parked behind her. Thinking of the bracelet, she organizes her words and slowly says, "Do you think I'm being unreasonable? I'm not mad at you for giving me something. I don't like the way you throw it away. I know it might be a worthless gadget for you. But for a poor student like me, even if I don't want it, I can't watch you throw it away. It's very expensive jewelry for me. So, I can't accept it. It is too precious and too delicate to me, even the way I look at it is almost cautiously. The move that you threw that bracelet away is like throwing it on my self-esteem..."

Life is like this. If you have nothing, then you can only live without pride. Pehry just wants her to understand that he doesn't mean to hurt her self-esteem. But he doesn't expect that those words give her a bigger blow.

However, he doesn't regret saying that. In the end, she still has to learn to face her own heart, instead of simply escaping.

However, now that he has finished speaking and she is about to cry again, what should he do?

Looking at the watery big eyes, the man grinds his teeth tightly. Before the sparkling tears roll down, he holds her neck closer to him and lowers his head to kiss the rosy lips.

Jasmine is shocked by his sudden action and immediately struggles to dodge. Unfortunately, Pehry doesn't give her the chance to refuse. The hand on her neck seems to be the strongest shackle. It firmly controls her but doesn't hurt her.

Pehry doesn't close his eyes. His thin, slightly cold lips are pressed against hers. He narrows his eyes and looks at her. He doesn't take a step further, but just sticks close to her like this.

He doesn't let go of her until he can't find a trace of crying in her eyes. Jasmine's tears are replaced by embarrassment.

She immediately takes a few steps back, rubbing her lips, and stares fixedly at him, "You..."

"I told you: If you cry again, I'll kiss you."

He sounds like he is indifferent, but his expression betrays him.

Those are clearly the same words. But this time, it feels different from the last time. Jasmine can't explain, but she knows something is different...

"It doesn't matter whether it is because of inferior complex or pride. But you're my girlfriend. I won't let you be influenced by these obscure emotions. Jasmine, prepare yourself mentally. This bracelet is just the beginning. You have to learn to accept other people's kindness towards you." With that, Pehry no longer gives her time to hesitate. He strides over to her, holding her by the hand and walks towards the car behind them.
