Chapter 477: Chapter 477, Please Make a Vow (1)_1

Han Jingnian nodded for the third time, this time accompanied by a very faint "mm-hmm".

Xia Wan’an thought back to last night; his reassurances had been just as warm then, but in reality, he’d knocked her out cold. She pondered the memory before saying aloud, "Given your behavior last night, my trust in you is rather low. Maybe you should make a vow..."

Han Jingnian: "..."

Xia Wan’an stared intently at Han Jingnian and waited patiently.

Three minutes later, Han Jingnian opened his mouth, and in the end, chose to remain silent.

If he were to face a similar situation again like last night’s, he would do the same thing, and so, he couldn’t possibly vow to do otherwise.

Moreover, a vow is such an important thing, how could he make one when he knew he couldn’t follow through?

Xia Wan’an watched as Han Jingnian opened his mouth and didn’t say a word, and immediately, she felt a surge of annoyance.

What was he implying? That he’d rather die than make a vow? So, his quick "mm-hmm" just now was only to appease and deceive her? Does this mean that if they were to face a similar situation, he would act as he did last night again?

That settled it for Xia Wan’an, "So you’re saying you can’t do it? Then fine, since you can’t, let’s lay down some rules because every country has its own laws, every family has its own rules... Considering how you treated me yesterday, if you want me to forgive you, it’s not impossible. I don’t need you to kneel and pick up shards, or stay kneeling on the TV remote, or buy me lipstick... All I need is for you to abstain from seeing me for a month, starting from today."

She’d laid down the ultimatum in such a stern tone, indeed, he should compromise now, right?

Unexpectedly, just as Xia Wan’an was finishing her remarks, Han Jingnian’s eyes abruptly cooled, and he looked at her before coldly throwing back, "No."

No? At this moment, shouldn’t he back down, assure her that he wouldn’t behave as he did last night if they were to encounter a similar situation? But he just said no?

Xia Wan’an was taken aback before she could ask, "What were you saying on the plane? You admitted that knocking me out was your fault, and you agreed to accept punishment. But now that I’ve given you a penalty, you refuse to comply? Also, last night, how did you act after promising to take me with you? Han Jingnian, is it fun for you to deceive me over and over again?"

Han Jingnian pursed his lips, and then moved them again, "Is this the only way for you to forgive me?"

"Yes."

Sitting on the couch, Han Jingnian pressed his lips together tightly, as if making a hard decision. After a while, he nodded, said "Fine," got up, went into the master bedroom, gathered some personal items, and tossed out a casual "Take care of yourself this month" to Xia Wan’an. Then he left.

As the door closed, Xia Wan’an, sitting on the couch, was completely stunned.

He left? Han Jingnian actually just left?

Couldn’t he have compromised, assuring her that he would never behave the same again in such a situation? But how could Han Jingnian just leave?!

She had just said "don’t see me for a month"... He wouldn’t really stay away for an entire month, would he?! If he did, wasn’t she effectively digging a hole and burying herself in it?!

Who could tell her, what kind of bizarre puzzle was Han Jingnian’s brain?!

Xia Wan’an rolled around on the sofa in frustration and glanced towards her bag. Instinctively, she reached out to grab her phone. But the moment she opened her bag, she stopped herself. She couldn’t call Han Jingnian, wouldn’t that mean she was spoiling him through such behaviour?!

As Xia Wan’an tried to rack her brains for a solution to salvage this situation, she spotted the few pregnancy tests stuffed in her bag...
