Chapter 137: Should Be

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Regarding the question you’re worried about, I think I can answer it now. Indeed, my feelings for you may not be particularly deep, but I’m not an easy person either. Since I’ve agreed to your marriage request, I’ll take it seriously.”

Caroline hesitated for a moment. “Of course, I’m not too interested in this engagement ceremony, but that’s because I don’t think it’s important. It’s more like a show for the public. It’s not very useful for the development of our relationship.”

Seeing the disappointed look on Edwin’s face, Caroline quickly tried to salvage the situation. “I’ve neglected your feelings. I didn’t expect you to take this matter so seriously. I’m sorry.”

Edwin squeezed her palm. “Although I’m really looking forward to the engagement party, this whole thing was arranged by the Anderson family from the beginning to the end. I didn’t ask for your opinion. This is also my negligence.”

Every time Edwin showed weakness, Caroline couldn’t take it anymore. She went forward and hugged him. “You’re making me look unreasonable.”

Edwin hugged her tighter and lowered his head to smell the faint fragrance of her hair. “This shouldn’t be something you should be worried about. If you don’t like my arrangement, you can just say ‘don’t like it’. I won’t be unhappy.”

“You’ll spoil me and make me more and more willful.” Caroline’s head was buried in his shoulder, and her voice was a little muffled.

“I like to see you become more and more willful.” Because you’re supposed to live a carefree life. Edwin laughed dotingly.

Caroline got out of his arms, shook her head, and smiled. “There’s no such thing as ‘should’ and ‘shouldn’t’ in this world.”

Edwin’s eyes fell on her face, and his deep voice sounded like a cello as he made the most determined and beautiful promise. “Perhaps there’s no ‘should’ or ‘shouldn’t’ in this world, but in my world, there are many ‘should’s, some very beautiful’ should’s.”

“Then what about ‘shouldn’t be’?” Caroline asked.

Edwin shook his head. “In my world, there’s no such thing as ‘shouldn’t’ for you.”

In Luo Ling’s world, she had been instilled with too many ‘should’ and ‘shouldn’t’ words since she was young, causing her to hate these two words. She felt that they were like shackles firmly placed on her body.

That was why she worked so hard, so hard to break through the barriers that others had woven for her, just to tell those people that there was no such thing as ‘should’ or ‘should not’ in this world, only ‘she wanted to’.

But now, Edwin had also said ‘she should’ , but the ‘should’ he said was different from others. The ‘should’ they said was a standard requirement for her to do something, or to not do something.

The ‘should’ that Edwin mentioned meant that she could do anything she wanted. She didn’t need to force herself to do anything she didn’t want to.

The same words, coming from different people, had two different meanings.

Caroline touched Edwin’s eyes. “Has anyone ever told you that your eyes are very beautiful?”

Edwin’s eyelashes fluttered. “I didn’t before, but I do now.” Because in the past, there were very few people who dared to look him in the eye and even say such things.

However, when this sentence came out of Caroline’s mouth, Edwin didn’t feel offended at all. Instead, he felt happy.

Caroline stood on her tiptoes and pressed her lips against the corner of his eye. “From the first time I saw you, I realized that your eyes are very beautiful. It was just that it was too mysterious and dangerous, so people would subconsciously stay away from it.” After that, Caroline added, “Although your entire face is very beautiful and completely fits my aesthetic taste.”

“It’s my honor.” Although Edwin didn’t care much about his appearance, when they first met on the street, Caroline’s eyes lit up when she saw him. At that moment, he was glad that he still had a good appearance.

“However, your eyes look much better now than when we first met,” Caroline said.

“Why?” Edwin was puzzled. He didn’t do anything to his eyes. “Because I see a better version of myself in your eyes,” Caroline replied..
