That was what Quill thought.
However, when Vera heard this, she thought differently.
From her point of view, Quill denied that it was a proposal. Although it was a false alarm, as they had only been together for a short while and they weren't at the point of proposing, Vera was a little upset.
"Y-You don't have to worry. I didn't overthink. I was just talking nonsense, I..." Vera took a deep breath, lowered her head dejectedly, and whispered, "Then, you really don't need my help?"
"Actually..." She looked up at him, her face flushed. "Even if we don't get married in the future, I'm still willing to do it now."
When she said these words to him, her pair of eyes were wet, making one unable to control themselves. Even if Quill wasn't drugged, he would have thoughts about her.
Not to mention he was drugged at this moment.
If possible, he didn't want to endure.
However, his reasoning was still intact. How could he lay his hands on the woman he loved at this
time?
Thinking of this, Quill once again reached out and ruffled her head. "We can't do it even if you're willing to. It's girls who suffer a loss in this kind of thing. You can't be like this no matter when and where in the future, do you understand?"
Vera bit her lower lip pitifully.
"Then what are you going to do? One night is still long; can you really endure it?" She looked behind him. "Besides, it's not good for your health to take a night-long cold bath."
"Then I won't do it. I won't sleep tonight. Go take a shower and rest early."
Vera still wanted to refuse, but Quill had already pushed her into the bathroom. She leaned on the sink and sighed, aggrieved. She had said everything she could, but Quill still restrained himself. Vera knew he would not have any other thoughts no matter what she said tonight. She could only sigh and take a bath, resigned.
After her shower, Vera found that she did not bring her clothes into the bathroom, so she had to come out with a bath towel wrapped around her. The room was quiet, and she did not see Quill's figure.
Vera searched around and found that Quill was at the balcony, taking some fresh air.
Great, he would rather endure the cold air than lay his hands on her. He was really an idiot who didn't know how to love.
Vera went back to her room sullenly, still feeling uneasy. In the end, she couldn't help but surf the internet with her phone.
She registered a private account and logged onto the social love forum to post about the incident. A bunch of night owls actively participated in the discussion.
"Gosh, there's still a man who can refrain himself from touching a woman when he's drugged? I thought this kind of species was already extinct. Oh no... It probably has never existed. After all, most men cannot control themselves even without the drug. They wouldn't be able to stand it even if you casually touched them. He wouldn't touch you even if he is drugged now... Your boyfriend is probably not capable..." Post 2 said.
"Do you even know the full story? But what if Post 2 is right?" Post 3 said.
"I agree with Post 3." Post 4 said.
"Don't be so sure. Who knows if he is capable or not before being together officially? But according to what OP described, I think he's quite decent. His capability aside, just the fact that he can still control himself at this time proves that he has strong willpower and mentality. This kind of person is very strict on themselves. He must be a successful person in real life." Post 5 replied.
"I think Post 5's words are very reasonable. There are still very outstanding people in the world, it's just that we have never seen them. But we can't deny their existence. I want to give OP a suggestion. You should take the initiative if he is unwilling to let you feel aggrieved at a time like this. Maybe... seducing him or something like that. He should be at his weakest now. If you really like him, if not now, when?" From Post 6.
"Don't ask. He's obviously not capable." Post 7 commented.
