Tang Nian's smile faded, and she said uneasily, "I trust him, he's not like Wei Chengfeng, I know he truly cares for and loves me, but our relationship doesn't allow me to love him."
Su Li, slightly dazed, looked at Tang Nian and suddenly realized that Tang Nian might love Tang Mubai, but she dared not love him.
"You... love him, don't you?"
Tang Nian shook her head, "I love him, but it's the love between family, because he is my older brother, not the kind you're thinking of."
Despite her repeated denials, Su Li still saw the struggle and doubt in her eyes.
Forget it, perhaps this was for the best for Tang Nian. Even if they loved each other deeply, their relationship would not permit it. If they forced themselves to be together, the pain and pressure they would endure were unimaginable.
"I understand."
Tang Mubai came out of the study, cajoled, and took Tang Nian away.
