Yu Keqing looked up at him, her lips moved and stopped, and finally she spoke softly, "Haochen, I have a question for you."
He glanced at her slightly, smiled softly, and said, "Ask."
"you……"
He was a little confused, "What's wrong? If you have any questions, just ask."
She left his arms, turned on the bedside lamp, and looked into his tired eyes quietly.
She took a deep breath and asked slowly: "Is it true that you and Jia Dina are going to get married?"
His body froze for a moment, his hand slipped from her body, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, "How did you know?"
"Jardina told me."
He took a deep breath, his face was solemn as never before, and there were deep and unpredictable emotions in his eyes, and finally he said slowly, "Yes."
Although the answer was the same as she expected, she still felt disappointed in her heart. She asked him in a trembling voice, "Then...why did you agree to her?"
He froze for a moment, and clasped his fingers in the dark, but did not speak.
He lowered his head, his hair hanging slightly from his forehead, softening the vague sadness between his brows and eyes.
"Is it a business marriage?"
He nodded slightly.
"Haochen, do you really have to marry her?"
He raised his head again, his eyes fell on her face, her expression was surprisingly quiet in the dim light, "I don't want to marry her, but I have to marry her."
"Why?" Yu Keqing couldn't wait to know the answer.
He stood up from the bed, walked slowly to the window, and stared at the deep, dark night sky.
His back in the dark space gave people a helpless and sad feeling.
He stared at the night sky for a long time and finally said, "It was because of you that I agreed to marry Mr. Jia."
"What?" Yu Keqing's face was full of shock and confusion.
He married Jia for his own sake? Why did he get involved in his marriage to Jia Dinah?
Cheng Haochen's expression was complicated and his face was very heavy. Even from a dark distance, she could feel his heavy breath.
"At that time, the uninhabited island was unexpectedly dropped, and you suddenly disappeared. Everyone pointed their fingers at you. It took a lot of effort for me to silence everyone.
But somehow, my father still knew about it. He was very angry and said that no matter where you were, he would find you and investigate the matter to the end.
