Chapter 1119 Ruka stopped breathing at that point, and something went off in her mind. “Uncle...” However, he refused to let her finish her sentence as he quite domineeringly planted a kiss on her red lips, and subsequently, he managed to muffle her words.
Ren hated that form of address because he didn't want to hear that from her lips at all.
At that point, Ruka stiffened, and her mind was a mess. She could no longer figure things out in her mind properly. She felt his soft touch on her lips, and perhaps he didn’t want to frighten her, so he didn't kiss her too intensely. It felt as if he was savoring the sweetness of her lips.
Ruka hadn't yet cto her senses as to how the kiss happened, but he had already released her from his arms. He whispered in her ears, “Ruka, | love you. | love you romantically, the way a man loves a woman.” At that point, Ruka’s heart skipped a beat, and she shoved him aside. She turned around and ran off toward the third bedroom on the left before pushing open the door and burrowing into the room. She hyperventilated as if she had just completed a marathon.
No. No. No. That can’t be possible. This is not possible at all! How could he possibly be in love with me?! Ruka felt as if she were about to pass out. This man, whom she had regarded as an elder since she was young, had suddenly confessed his love to her. He was such an impressive man too, so she couldn‘t quite accept the fact.
Ruka‘’s mind was scrambled at that moment and she remained in a dazed state for quite stime. In her mind, she could only hear the words that Ren had whispered in her ears, “Ruka, | love you. | love you romantically, the way a man loves a woman.” She covered her face with her hands and blushed to the tips of her ears. This must be the most inconceivable thing that had happened in her life. What should | do? Currently, she was frantic, and she panicked quite badly.
She was the one who was supposed to confess her love for Jethro tonight, but now she was the recipient of another guy's love confession. Besides, the guy was not just any other man; he was an elderly figure whom she respected and was in awe of. She felt quite lost at the moment, and she felt as if she had barged into Ren’s territory accidentally. She wasn't quite sure of what to do.
