All of the food in that restaurant were expensive and only rich people like Yun Shen and Zhou Yiren could afford something like that. After ordering the food, the waitress left them there.

Zhou Yiren finally looked at Yun Shen after they were left alone in the room. "Why you?"

He took a glance at her and smirked, "Why me? This handsome man is your fiance, you should be happy."

"I should be happy? I'm going to marry my friend who's- oh yeah, a huge player. I wanted to have a simple and happy marriage life but that won't be the case since I know you, I can see myself getting a lot of headaches from you."

He smiled, "I stopped being a player a year ago. Besides, I am the kind of man who takes marriage seriously."

She scoffed and rolled her eyes. "As if that can be true."

Yun Shen's smiling face became serious, his playful facade earlier was gone, "You don't have to believe it since I will show it to you and prove my words through my actions."

The look on Yun Shen was something rare for Yiren, he looked like he was a total different person when he gave her that look, for some reason, it made her want to believe him.

She shyly looked away, she couldn't stare back at him if he continues staring at her that way.

"I just want you to give me a chance to prove it, Yiren."

Upon saying those words, Zhou Yiren was reminded of Luke. Those were the same words Luke told her when she was blinded and confused by the pain of heartbreak she had when she confronted him.

She lowered her head, if she was more forgiving, if she listened to him, if she really gave him another chance... maybe she could be a little bit happier, right? If she wasn't afraid to love and get hurt, if only she trusted his words, maybe she'll end up marrying Luke in the game world, maybe she wouldn't meet Michael and wouldn't make a contract with him, maybe she'll accept the fact that living in the game world could be nice too since Luke will be by her side... but that wasn't the case, she was afraid to take the risk of loving him.

Noticing the sadness and pain in her eyes made Yun Shen's heart tighten as if someone was trying to crush it. What is this feeling? He always saw Zhou Yiren as a friend after he gave up his goal in making her one of his women back in the good old days in medical school.

He started treating her differently from the women he 'hangout' with. She was like a little sister to him.

He didn't cared about what will happen to him when he saved her from the fire. He visited her everyday and watched her sleep in the hospital. There wasn't a day where he wouldn't visit her, even when the doctor proclaimed that she won't survive since she had a brain death.

After learning her brain death from the doctor, he felt like an ice cold water was thrown to him as his heart wrung the blood out of it. The girl who never fell for his tactics, the girl who he watched ever since he knew her, she slipped off his fingers just like that.

It was a miracle when he saw her wake up. When she rushed and hugged him, the name she mentioned made him wonder who that person was but he ignored it. He was too happy that she was alive.

When he learned from his mother that Zhou Yiren was going to be his fiance, he happily accepted it. Why was he happy? Ah, it was because he finally realized his feelings for her.

Seeing the sadness and pain in her eyes made him question himself, was she that sad to learn that he was her fiance? Did she never fell for him even a bit after the years they spent together?

The heavy atmosphere around them was disturbed when the waitress came with their orders. "Mam, Sir, here are your orders."

Yiren snapped out of her thoughts and watched as the waitress placed their orders on the table and after that, she left.

"Lets eat?" Zhou Yiren returned to her normal self and smiled at him.

Yun Shen quickly hid the disappointment in him and instead, he smiled back at her. "Sure."

As they started eating, they became quiet again. For some reason, Zhou Yiren felt something strange with Yun Shen's smile, it was not the same warm and genuine smile he usually gives her. Did something bothered him?

Yun Shen placed his fork and knife down before he wiped his lips with a napkin, he faced Yiren. "Do you want to break this engagement?"

It was a good thing that Yiren just swallowed the food she ate before Yun Shen asked that question or else she could have choked on it.

Did she want to break the engagement? She was doing this for her parents so the answer should be no, right? She has been engaged to Alyn and Spade while she was in the body of Violet and she tried breaking the engagements off from them, she didn't feel like wanting to get married yet since in the game world, she was too young for that.

She looked at him and smiled, "No. I accept this engagement. And besides, you are someone I have spent my seven years with that's why I decided to trust you."

Yun Shen was touched by what she said, he couldn't stop his smile from growing in his lips when he heard her words.

"You are someone I trust so lets do this."

For some reason, Yun Shen was feeling a de javu when she said that she trusts him, it feels like he heard those words somewhere. Was it when he saved her? No... that wasn't it.

"Besides, this is better than marrying someone I do not know."

Yun Shen moved the joystick that was on the arm rest of his chair. Moving the joystick made him go to her side.

He grabbed her hand and kissed the back of it as a loving smile appeared on his lips. "I promise you that you won't regret this."
