The Rejuvenation System of Hehuan: Starting with a Young Woman in an Apartment

Chen Mo was stroking Bai Ling's face, but suddenly pulled away, causing Bai Ling's already dazed eyes to widen slightly. She looked at Chen Mo with some confusion, not understanding what he was doing.

Bai Ling was somewhat unsatisfied, even slightly disappointed. However, although Bai Ling was a career-oriented strong woman, as a woman, she certainly couldn't bring herself to ask Chen Mo why he didn't continue.

So Bai Ling tried to open her mouth several times, but she couldn't open it at all.

But deep down, Bai Ling asked herself, if Chen Mo kissed her, would she refuse? The answer was definitely no, because even Bai Ling felt that she was a little unable to control herself.

But what if she went any further? Bai Ling would definitely tell herself that it was probably impossible. Although Bai Ling was already incredibly impulsive, she always felt that there was some kind of barrier in her heart that she couldn't break through.

However, given this situation, Bai Ling couldn't be sure whether she would take the next step, so at this moment, Bai Ling's heart was filled with great entanglement and even confusion.

She didn't even know whether Chen Mo was going to continue to meet her expectations and take it one step further, or whether he was going to stop there.

Because in Bai Ling's heart, although Chen Mo's image no longer fits the image of her perfect lover, Chen Mo is still her grandfather's friend and is older than her.

It wasn't just because Chen Mo was older, but also because of this ethical barrier. While Bai Ling hoped to take things further, she was also afraid that Chen Mo would take things even further.

Even Bai Ling herself didn't know what was wrong with her. She could only say that although Chen Mo had moved her, it was still far from that point.

After all, while Chen Mo saved Bai Ling's apartment, it wasn't just Chen Mo who could save Bai Ling's apartment; there were many other people as well. However, Bai Ling trusted Chen Mo more.

So after being guided by Chen Mo, Bai Ling subconsciously felt that Chen Mo's behavior was truly kind and righteous, perfectly matching the image in her mind.

However, Bai Ling is, after all, just a living, breathing human being. As long as she is a human being, she has the instinctive reactions of her body. Although Chen Mo had deliberately guided her, Bai Ling still subconsciously felt that although Chen Mo was good, he was still not enough to help her break through that step.

Therefore, if Chen Mo wants to take things further, he will definitely be rejected by Bai Ling.

It can only be said that Chen Mo's sudden stop, while leaving Bai Ling feeling somewhat empty, also lowered her guard once again.

He stared blankly at Chen Mo, wanting to know what Chen Mo was doing.

Knowing this, Chen Mo released his hand from Bai Ling's cheek, gently placed it on her shoulder, and said, "Although I know that she may be the one truly destined for me, I know I cannot interfere with her life."

Upon hearing this, Bai Ling was instantly terrified, her heart skipping a beat. This time, she could no longer maintain her composure and hurriedly asked Chen Mo, "Why, why?"

Even Bai Ling didn't realize that she was getting a little anxious.

Seeing this, Chen Mo couldn't help but smile. The next moment, Chen Mo pretended to sigh and said to Bai Ling, "After this incident, I have calmed down. Perhaps I am better off staying single for the rest of my life and not hurting her again."

"Although I don't know much about my girlfriend whom I've only known for one day, I can't understand her at all. She's a good girl and she's so considerate of me. She even helped me chase away a scammer, not only preventing me from being deceived emotionally but also keeping me from getting hurt."

"But I'm already so old, I don't have many years left. How could I possibly hurt such a good child? So I've decided to keep this feeling deep in my heart."

"If she's doing well, then I'm doing well, and that's enough."

After saying this, Chen Mo completely shattered Bai Ling's last bit of mental defense.

After hearing Chen Mo's words, Bai Ling couldn't help but tremble, her voice shaking as she said to Chen Mo, "Uncle Chen, you..."

If the Silent One were to attack relentlessly, it might provoke Bai Ling's defenses. However, Chen Mo not only refrained from attacking but also considered Bai Ling's well-being, not wanting to ruin her future because of his age.

Especially for someone like Bai Ling, who is inherently a person of loyalty and righteousness, Chen Mo's act of loyalty and righteousness completely shattered her image.

Chen Mo's words made Bai Ling feel as if she was about to lose something important. Her heart began to clench, and she even started to have trouble breathing, becoming anxious.

Although she was afraid that Chen Mo would take things further, Bai Ling now felt that she was more afraid of losing Chen Mo, especially after Chen Mo expressed his feelings, yet he was so considerate of her and silently chose to keep boundaries.

Isn't this just erecting a high wall between two people whose fates were originally intertwined, so that they can only look at each other but not get close?

For someone like Bai Ling, who is only passionate about her career and has no experience with relationships, the impact of such behavior on Chen Mo is incredibly strong, so they are eager to stop him from doing so.

Although Bai Ling hadn't decided whether she could accept Chen Mo taking things further, she absolutely could not accept Chen Mo, as it would create a rift between them.

Women are creatures of feeling. She was already immersed in this wonderful feeling, but then she had to cut it off. Even a strong woman like Bai Ling would find it hard to accept this feeling.

This made Bai Ling panic instantly, but when she opened her mouth, her instincts prevented her from saying anything. She could only say "Uncle Chen" and then she didn't know what else to say.

Because for Bai Ling, she could never let go of her pride.

Upon seeing this, Chen Mo's lips curled slightly. He thought to himself, "The real climax isn't here. What I'm about to do will surely break through Bai Ling's last defenses."

The next moment, Chen Mo reached out and covered Bai Ling's mouth, which was about to speak. This scene made Bai Ling pause slightly. Bai Ling, who didn't know what to say, stopped and looked at Chen Mo.

At this moment, Chen Mo said to Bai Ling, "I know what you want to say, but you don't need to say anything more. My mind is made up. Let me keep this deep feeling to myself."

"But before that, I want to give her something."
