"It's not too late now, unless you think I'm too old to be good-looking …"
As for the things he didn't want to say, she knew that he was afraid that she would worry, so she would cooperate with him and pretend that she didn't know anything.
"He's talking nonsense again." He hugged her tightly, his chin lightly rubbing against her soft hair. "Why did you fall asleep when I came back? I'm still holding a warm photo in my hand. "
"Ah?" Yeah, maybe it's because I haven't seen any warmth for a day, so I miss her. "
"Warmth is with dad and mom. You can go visit her anytime."
"I know, I just went to take a look today. That little girl is really enjoying her time." Huaiyan leaned into his embrace, her face pressed against his chest. Just then, she heard the thumping of his heart.
He did not speak, nor did she. After a long time, when the black curtain of night seemed to have shrouded the place, he suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Yan Yan, why don't we hold the wedding next month?"
Next month? There were still seventeen days left. Her joy immediately shrank as she thought of the thick medical records, Qi Rongrong's merciless humiliation and ridicule, and what she had said to Qi Rongrong, and she suddenly pushed Shen Canghao away. When they separated, she realized that she had lost her composure, and when she raised her head, she saw the injuries that flashed across his eyes.
How was she supposed to tell him how she was going to shamelessly stay by his side, how she was supposed to face the pressure from his own mother, and how she was supposed to ignore the guilt and remorse in her heart?
"You don't want to? You're still complaining about me? "
He stared at her blankly, his beautiful eyes filled with sorrow. Her subconscious actions made it seem as if his heart had been ruthlessly stabbed.
"No, no." Huaiyan shook her head, suppressing her tears. "You know I love you. I want to marry you, but now …"
"You know, I'm always sensitive. Can you give me a little more time? I'm almost done with it. Two months, oh no a month, okay? "
She was afraid that if she agreed to marry him, she would cause a ruckus, and at such a critical juncture, he would be thrown into a pit of hatred.
"Alright." He suddenly smiled and put his arm around her. "No matter how long it takes, I will wait for you. However, you are not allowed to leave me. You are not allowed to leave me without marriage."
"How could that be?" She smiled, tears flickering in her eyes. Raising her face to kiss his lips, she said, "Shen Canghao, I really want to follow you for the rest of my life."
"Of course you'll be by my side for the rest of your life, because I only recognize you as my wife."
He kissed her back, his eyes filled with gentleness. It was true that no matter how bad the world was, or how difficult the situation was, he would never take the initiative to let go of her hand again.
How I wish that I can still have a child, how I wish that there is no longer any barrier between me and you, how I wish that everything that happened today was just a dream, how I wish that after experiencing so much, I can hold your hand peacefully without worrying that someone will push you away from me.
But these are all illusions. Five years ago, I was dreaming, and five years later, I was still immersed in my own dream, only now do I understand, only now do I understand, no matter how hard I work, how much I love you, in the hearts of others, it's all because I'm not worthy of you, not to mention, I only gave you a daughter, a daughter who will never inherit rights in the Shen family.
I know that you don't care and I don't care about that, but I also know that if I allow myself to be together with you, then what did you get? A lot of people turn their backs on you. You will be transformed from a high and mighty person into a frustrated man who has been kicked out of his office by the board of directors and has been replaced by someone else. Even my grandfather would point at me and scold me, scolding me for breaking the bloodline of the Shen family, scolding me for letting down on his all the love and love he had for me.
She bit the tip of her tongue. That sharp pain was like an electric current that covered her entire body in an instant.
But if I leave you, there's no way I can do it. If I give up, there's no way I can do it either. Ah Hao, tell me, what should we do?
I can't see the road in front of me, that is a dark place, I can't see the path of retreat, behind me is a bottomless abyss, trying my best to hold your hand, but I'm still a little short. If I knew that love was so tiring, shouldn't I have met you before? But if I didn't meet you, wouldn't my life be a pool of stagnant water?
She felt a salty taste in her mouth. When she raised her head again, she found that his eyes were filled with tears. She rarely saw him crying. He was proud and uninhibited, yet he still cried a few times for her.
"What's wrong?" Her heart ached as she hugged him, but she was suddenly pressed down by him. That kiss was like raindrops falling and it was numb.
I have a bad feeling about this. We are so good now, but I am afraid that this will be like a dream that will be broken with a poke. I am afraid that when I open my eyes one day, you will disappear without a trace." "Yan Yan, let's leave this place. We will go abroad and find a quiet place. Just us family together, okay?
"Alright, I'll agree to anything you say." She laughed, but only with tears in her eyes. She reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling his body down and sticking close to hers.
If separation was inevitable, and was an unchangeable fate, then when her love waned, she would desperately grasp at all the beauty that she still missed. No matter what would happen tomorrow, it didn't matter.
In the mayor's office.
"Who told you to do this? Who gave you permission to abuse my rights and make reckless decisions? " Deng Guangliang looked at the documents in front of him and slammed his hand on the table. He stood up!
"Guang Rui, didn't you promise me that I would take full responsibility for that piece of land?" Lin Qian laughed lightly as if she didn't care. She gently hugged his waist and pressed her face against his chest. Unexpectedly, Deng Guangliang pushed her out of the way. Her face was so gloomy that it looked as though water was about to drip out of it!
