Liang Zixuan had indeed wanted to leave earlier, but not because she was angry, but because she was hesitant. The fear of having her worries exposed to Han Yuanjun made her unable to think. All she wanted to do was escape.
Now that she heard him say that, the fear in her heart finally subsided. She pursed her lips and pretended to be angry as she asked, "You really don't think I'm a monster?"
"What monster?" Han Yuanjun also pretended to be angry and bit Liang Zixuan's cheek. "You are my woman, not a monster! Before I found out about your secret, I loved you, doting on you. After I learned about everything, I felt hurt, loved you even more, and wanted to pamper you even more."
Han Yuanjun then sighed. "I'm just scared, scared that one day when I wake up, you won't be by my side anymore. I'm afraid that when I ask everyone, they will tell me that they don't know you and have never seen you. It's fine if they don't feel it, but I feel it. If you suddenly disappear, I'll definitely go crazy."
Not to mention Han Yuanjun, Liang Zixuan would also go crazy.
She wrapped her arms around Han Yuanjun's waist, buried her head in his neck, and hugged him tightly. "I was scared before, but now, with you by my side, I'm not scared anymore."
"Little scoundrel!" Han Yuanjun bit Liang Zixuan's earlobe in a punitive way. "If you scare me again, I'll show you how I'll deal with you."
"Aiya, stop it! My hair isn't dry yet!" Liang Zixuan smiled as she dodged to the side, but she was pushed onto the bed by Han Yuanjun.
He looked at her tenderly and sincerely. "Even though I'm scared, I won't let you go."
That night, Han Yuanjun wanted Liang Zixuan so badly. No matter how unbearable it was, she just gritted her teeth and endured it.
As if they would lose each other in one day. The two of them secretly turned their fears into love, as well as deep pain.

No matter how annoying Gao Nianzu's words were, Han Yuanjun had to call him back.
When Gao Nianzu received a phone call from Han Yuanjun, he felt flattered. "Third Brother, what's up? You called me two days in a row! Did the sun rise in the west? You are already married to sister-in-law, right? Don't tell me that you found out that you're really in love with me?"
Han Yuanjun rolled his eyes without saying a word. Ever since he and Liang Zixuan got married, this group of shameless men had become too bold. If they were bored, they could find joy in him.
"If you don't behave properly, I'll hang up."
"Hey, don't. Third Brother, I was wrong!" Although Gao Nianzu still had a smile on his face, his voice became serious. "Tell me, what is it? Is it related to rebirth?"
The Gao Family was very sensitive to such things, and just like Han Yuanjun, they all felt respect for this kind of art deep in their hearts.
Moreover, Gao Nianzu knew that Han Yuanjun wasn't a person who liked to ask questions. The fact that he called him within two days proved that something very important must have happened.
Han Yuanjun finally became serious when he heard this, so he lowered his voice, and said, "Yes, where is the person who studied rebirth? I want to meet him."
Gao Nianzu was shocked. "Third Brother, you don't really meet people like that, do you? Oh my God, quickly introduce him to me and let him tell me which stock I should buy. I want to get extra money!"
Han Yuanjun was speechless. This brat is back again.
He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words. "Want to earn extra money?"
Hearing his voice, Gao Nianzu knew that Han Yuanjun was angry, and immediately pretended to be serious. "No, I was just joking. It's my cousin, you've met her before, the one you guys used to laugh at when she was little, the one you guys called a godmother. She's on the archaeological team now. A while back she found a small book in a tomb and it was written by the owner of the tomb."
Gao Nianzu paused, then suddenly laughed cynically. "Haha ... This person knew that the Qing Dynasty would be destroyed and the allied armies of the eight nations would burn the Yuan Ming Dynasty. So he secretly hid a priceless treasure and used all his wealth to buy a lot of properties to hide it."
"Then the team that followed after found another tomb. It was really full of treasures! My God, when my sister sent me the picture, I was shocked!"
Han Yuanjun sneered. "Since he knew that the Qing Dynasty would be destroyed and the alliance army of eight nations would burn the Yuan Ming Dynasty, why didn't he stop it?"
"He tried, but it was useless! No one believed him and they thought he was crazy!" Gao Nianzu sighed. "Who would believe such a thing? If it were you, you wouldn't believe it either!"
"I do." Han Yuanjun pursed his lips. "Why not?"
Gao Nianzu was a very sensitive person and he easily caught Han Yuanjun's words. "Because you have someone like that with you and he's close to you, that's why you believe it?"
Every time he talked to Gao Nianzu, Han Yuanjun would always feel tired. He wanted to hide it, but he couldn't anyway. Gao Nianzu, this brat, would always be able to see right through him.
Han Yuanjun didn't want Gao Nianzu to get involved in this matter, so he changed the subject. "Does your cousin know someone has been reborn? Does she have a deep understanding of this matter?"
"Of course!" Gao Nianzu was unhappy about Han Yuanjun's suspicions against his sister and wanted to defend his sister's reputation. "Have you forgotten about this? She has a pair of yin-yang eyes and can see many things that we can not see. When we were young, didn't you say she was a godmother because she always told you strange things? Back then, Zhang Feng, the coward, was so scared that he wet his pants!"
Han Yuanjun had a deep impression of this person. When she was young, she had two ponytails, making her look like a young girl. However, her face did not have the innocence and immaturity of a child. She always had a mature and cold face, as if she had seen through everything.
It was unknown if she had touched something in her ancestors' tombs, but there would always be one or two people who were different from the ordinary people in the clan. This little girl was one of them.
Han Yuanjun nodded. "'And where is she now? Would it be possible to meet her?"
"That's hard to say. I'll have to contact her and ask her. How about this, I'll call you when I'm done asking."
After hanging up, Han Yuanjun stood by the window in his office with his phone. He looked at the clouds in the sky, and his mouth slowly formed a straight line.
No matter how difficult the situation was, he had to hold onto Liang Zixuan's hand firmly.. He could not let anything happen to her again.
