The Days of Being in a Fake Marriage with the CEO - Chapter 185

Chapter 185: You Can’t Force Trust

Those that were thick with powder, where one could lose some makeup when walking around, were absolutely not allowed.

Mu Huan: “…”

Her putting on thick makeup was par for the course!

They were opposing forces. Those that he didn’t like were all the things that she needed to be!

Her heart was tired!

Suddenly, Bao Junyan asked, “That difficulty you have that causes you to act against your will, does it still exist?”

Although her stepmother could no longer threaten her, there was probably still something between her and her grandma.

Someone as astute as Bao Junyan naturally sensed that Mu Huan had been trying very hard to hide something from him. It wasn’t that he couldn’t find out about it; it was just that he respected his wife and wanted her to trust him enough to tell him what’s going on.

“Hubby, I can’t tell you this. Can you not ask me about it? I… I…” Mu Huan did not know what to say and could only lower her gaze to avoid his line of sight.

Bao Junyan looked at her, and his gaze darkened a little. “Xiao Huan, I hope you know that compared to your irresponsible father and your biased Grandma, I am someone you can very much rely on. I am your husband, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. No matter what difficulties you have, you can talk to me about them. I don’t care what difficulty it is that’s leaving you with no alternatives, I will help you to solve it!”

Mu Huan was touched by his words, but she still couldn’t say it. If he found out about her difficulty and those other things, they would become the swords that would ruin her life!

“Hubby, it is not that I don’t trust you, but I… I only need… need time…” Such truths would be revealed sooner or later. She needed the time to work hard and make herself stronger as much as possible!

Bao Junyans’s gaze became even darker. “Is this difficulty going to put your life in danger?”

If it would affect her safety, she had to say it even if she didn’t want to.

“No! No! It will not endanger my safety. They are just some secrets between me and my grandma that I can’t say!” Mu Huan knew that Bao Junyan definitely detected that she had her reasons for listening to her grandma despite not being filial to her. Therefore, she might as well tell him about it.

Bao Junyan did not say anything else.

“Hubby, please don’t look into it, alright? I really, really need the time! Please, I beg you…” Mu Huan was afraid that he would go and investigate if she didn’t tell him. The moment he found out about it, everything would be over.

Bao Junyan stared at her speechlessly.

“Hubby, they are really secrets between me and my grandma that I cannot say. They will not affect my safety, so, please… I beg you, alright?…” Mu Huan begged, grabbing his arm.

Despite usually having a heart of stone, Bao Junyan could not reject her pleading every single time.

“I will wait for you to tell me willingly. I will not investigate it.” She was not a dumb nor cowardly person. She was definitely not an obedient and gentle person either. She knew to come to him for help when she was facing a danger she couldn’t deal with. Therefore, he did not want to force her to tell him if there was something she did not want him to know about.

Trust could not be forced.

“Thank you, Hubby! Thank you!” Mu Huan hugged him emotionally. “Hubby, I will remember your kindness for the rest of my life!”

Even if they would separate eventually, she would do anything for him as long as he needed her!

Bao Junyan caressed her head silently.

What he wanted was not her gratitude.

…

After Long Feiting had left the hospital, he immediately went to find Mu Kexin. He could not accept that his Little Star would become someone like that after growing up!
