Chapter 2588: That is just his image!
“He pinned me to the bed and kissed me so passionately that I-I… couldn’t help but respond to his advances! I eventually came back to my senses, though, so I pushed him away and told him ‘no’. His expression turned somewhat cold at that, and he thought that my reluctance is due to me not loving him enough. I felt so aggrieved and explained to him that I wanted to save my virginity for our wedding night.”
“What happened next?”
“He asked me what I am afraid of. He’s unable to understand why we can’t do the deed when we’ve already met each other’s parents and decided to tie the knot. I feel really conflicted; was I wrong to turn him down?”
Yun Shishi kept silent for a moment before finally saying, “You’re not wrong; you just don’t feel very sure about him. You love him so much that you’ve lost yourself.”
“That’s indeed so…” Her friend’s eyes flickered as she nodded in agreement. “Somehow… I don’t exactly feel sure about him. You’re certainly right in that.”
“To be honest, the society now is considered quite open about s*x. If the guy loves you enough, he won’t be bothered whether you’re still a virgin or not on your wedding night. It’s also not a shameful matter to break up with your boyfriend after sleeping with him. Men have their desires, and so do women. In fact, women tend to be more emotional, so they’re more likely to lose themselves when they fall in love. Premarital s*x isn’t something shameful; it’s about whether the guy is worth it or not. You have your concerns, so you’ve turned him down time and again, but instead of trying to understand your feelings, he’s pinned the blame on you. I’d be really disappointed in him if I were you.”
The two women grew silent.
“Why is it okay for men to engage in premarital s*x but not women? Men and women are equal in this day and age. As long as it’s out of love, people are free to sleep with whoever they want. There’s nothing wrong with that as long as they take precautions and not get themselves hurt in the end. You have nothing to be ashamed of for sticking to your principles. On the contrary, seeing how he could say such things to you, he’s obviously just taking you as a pastime; how important can you be to him?”
She continued asking carefully, “Are you really sure that he loves you back?”
“Of course!” answered the lady in full confidence. “He told me so himself. He’ll never lie to me.”
“I truly doubt it.” The actress decided to get to the point. “Let’s be honest with each other here. I have a lot to say about him.”
Xiao Xue’s brows furrowed as she asked in puzzlement, “About what?”
“On account of our years of friendship, I’d like to tell you this…” The actress paused, then added, “Gao Nan isn’t a reliable boyfriend; he’s not worthy of you!”
The abruptness of the other’s words caused her expression to change; she simply could not fathom why her friend would say that.
“Why isn’t he reliable?” She laughed. “He’s tall, handsome, gentle, and considerate; he even has a good family background. Even though we do have some conflicts, I’m really happy about this relationship.”
“That’s just his image!”
