Jiang Yanshen’s dark eyes were bloodshot, and his tightly pursed lips were trembling. He pulled her into his arms without hesitation. How could there be such a stupid person in this world?

She was so silly that his heart ached.

Lin Qingqian kissed his chest with the side of her face and grabbed his clothes with both hands. Her voice was gentle. “I’m not soft-hearted or hot-headed when I’m with you, nor am I forcing myself. It’s because I like you and want to be with you.”

“It’s just that I won’t treat you as everything to me this time. I won’t let you be so tired.”

Jiang Yanshen turned his head and planted a deep kiss on her forehead. His voice was hoarse. “Silly girl.”

Lin Qingqian looked up and smiled. “It doesn’t matter if we don’t have a child.

You have one in your body anyway.”

This time, Jiang Yanshen didn’t change his expression because of her words. His dark eyes were filled with warmth as he stared at her.

His fingertips caressed her delicate face and he couldn’t help but lower his head to kiss her twice. “I’ll dote on you if we don’t have children. You’re my princess, my baby…”

Lin Qingqian smiled. The orange light made her cold eyes look a little warmer. “You said this yourself. You can’t go back on your word.”

“I won’t go back on it even if I die.” Jiang Yanshen raised his head and kissed her lips. He stood up and pressed her onto the sofa…

After a round of commotion, Lin Qingqian lay on the bed tiredly, not even bothering to move her toes.

Jiang Yanshen got up to pour a glass of water and sat up with her in his arms.

“Drink some water. Your throat hurt from shouting just now, right?”

Lin Qingqian’s face was covered in a thin layer of red as she glared at him with her watery eyes.

Jiang Yanshen looked satisfied and kissed her hair. “What do you want to eat? I’ll get Auntie to make it.”

Lin Qingqian’s throat felt much better after drinking half a glass of water. “I want to eat steak.”

Jiang Yanshen’s thin lips curled up slightly. “I’ll go make it. You go take a shower.”

Lin Qingqian nodded.

Jiang Yanshen stood up with the cup in his hand. When he turned around, he suddenly paused and turned around to ask, “Do you need me to carry you to the bathroom?”

“No need, thank you!” Lin Qingqian rejected without thinking.

It was unknown how she moved Jiang Yanshen’s heart. He bent down and kissed her lips. He rubbed his nose against his round little nose twice and said sincerely, ‘Qianqian, you’re so cute.”

With that, he left with the cup without waiting for Lin Qingqian to speak.

Lin Qingqian’s face was filled with spring waves. Her heart was numb and sweet from his actions and words. She touched her nose and couldn’t help but laugh.

As she smiled, she covered her head with the blanket and hid to laugh secretly…

Lin Qingqian took a shower and changed into a set of home clothes before going downstairs. Jiang Yanshen’s steak had also just been prepared and was brought to the dining table.

The auntie walked out with a plate of salad and quickly returned to the kitchen.

Jiang Yanshen asked, “Do you need red wine?”

“No.” Lin Qingqian rejected the alcohol.

Jiang Yanshen did not persuade her anymore. Instead, he took the cutlery and patiently helped her cut the steak evenly.

Lin Qingqian sat at the side, resting her chin on her hands as she looked at him happily.

Who would have thought that this man who was so decisive in the business world would help her cut steak at home?

If it were eight years ago, she would not have dared to imagine that she would be treated as a treasure by him one day. She was afraid that she would lose it if she placed it in her palm and put it in her mouth.

In the past eight years, the verse she had begged for, “The body is unparalleled, but the heart has a little spirituality” finally came true. Jiang Yan saw her staring at him in a daze. “What are you thinking about?”

Lin Qingqian’s lips curved. “In the end, my wish was fulfilled.”

“Huh?” Jiang Yanshen looked up, not understanding.

“Nothing, just eat.” Lin Qingqian did not explain to him and lowered her head to enjoy the fruits of his labor.

Seeing that she did not say anything, Jiang Yanshen did not ask further and ate quietly.

When he was almost done eating, the phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller ID and put down his cutlery to answer the call.

She didn’t know what the person on the other end of the phone said, but his expression changed slightly. His low voice was concise as he said, “I understand. I’ll be there in a while.”

Lin Qingqian looked up at him, her bright eyes filled with curiosity and confusion.

Jiang Yanshen put down his phone and looked at her. “Chairman Liang passed away two hours ago. I’m going to the Liang family.”

Lin Qingqian put down her cutlery. “I’ll go with you.”

Jiang Yanshen hesitated for a moment and nodded. “Alright. Madam Liang has always liked you. You might be able to make her feel better if you go over and comfort her.”

At 10 pm, Lin Qingqian and Jiang Yanshen arrived at the Liang Family.

The servants were already setting up the mourning hall. Chairman Liang’s body was placed in the hall for the people who came to pay their respects.

Madam Liang sat on the sofa with her son, wife, and granddaughter beside her. Her face was haggard, and her eyes were red, but she did not shed any more tears.

Jiang Yanshen held Lin Qingqian’s hand and walked over, saying in a low voice,

“Madam Liang, my condolences.”

Madam Liang looked up at them, especially when she saw Lin Qingqian, there was a hint of consolation in her eyes. “You’re here.”

Lin Qingqian comforted her softly. “Madam Liang, please take care of yourself.”

Madam Liang nodded and waved at her. “I haven’t seen you in a long time. Come to my side and talk to me.”

Lin Qingqian first glanced at Jiang Yanshen. Seeing him nod, she walked towards Madam Liang.

When Madam Liang saw this, she stood up and said softly, “Lan’er, accompany me to burn incense for Grandpa.”

Liang Lan nodded with red eyes. She stood up and followed her mother to the mourning hall to burn incense.

President Liang and Jiang Yanshen walked to the balcony outside.

Madam Liang held Lin Qingqian’s hand with her withered fingers and said in relief, “You’re really considerate to make this trip so late.”

Lin Qingqian held her hand back. “Madam Liang…

Madam Liang patted her hand gently with her other hand. “There’s no need to comfort me. I’m already so old. I can’t force those who should leave to stay. It’s not good. ”

She glanced at the ceiling, implying something.

“I heard that Chairman Liang died very peacefully and didn’t suffer.”

Chairman Liang suddenly had a cerebral infarction and left before he could be saved. In less than a few minutes, he left quickly without any pain. It was also a form of comfort for the family.

Madam Liang nodded. “Yes, I was by his side when he left. He don’t have any regrets.”

Lin Qingqian’s curled eyelashes looked at her weathered facial features. It was a faint atmosphere after experiencing all the suffering in the world.

“I believe that Chairman Liang will always look after you even in the sky, so you have to take good care of yourself. Don’t let him worry.”

Madam Liang lowered her eyes and looked at her. She pursed her lips. “Child, at our age, there’s nothing we can’t let go of. I’ve been with him for my entire life and I don’t think I’ve let him down!

Now that he’s gone, although I’m sad, I also know that we won’t be separated for long. In the remaining time, I want to go out and take a look at Yu Mountain. ”

Lin Qingqian didn’t persuade her not to wander around at her age. Instead, she comforted her. “Alright, my Auntie is at Yu Mountain. If you go back, I’ll get her to make delicious food for you.”

Madam Liang nodded. “Alright.”

“Lass, you’re a smart child. Take it easy and don’t make things difficult for yourself.” Madam Liang comforted her.

Lin Qingqian blinked, her bright eyes filled with confusion.

Madam Liang smiled. “It hasn’t been easy for you and Yanshen. How many more seven years do you have to waste? Let go of what you should.”

She sighed earnestly.

Lin Qingqian was stunned and subconsciously looked at Jiang Yanshen’s tall figure outside the window.

Jiang Yanshen was talking to President Liang when he seemed to sense something. He turned his head and met her gaze.

The autumn dew was heavy. In the dim light, the two of them looked at each other through the cold glass, but their hearts surged with warmth. 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝒎

It was past one in the morning and Madam Liang was in low spirits. Madam Liang and Liang Lan helped her upstairs to rest.

Jiang Yanshen and Lin Qingqian also returned to Begonia Courtyard.

When Lin Qingqian came out of the bathroom, she saw Jiang Yanshen standing in front of the window sill with a cigarette in his hand. Pale smoke curled up, but he did not bring it to his mouth for a long time.

She walked over and hugged his waist from behind. The smell of ebony agarwood and tobacco mixed in the air.

Jiang Yanshen immediately extinguished the cigarette butt, opened the window, and threw it out. He then opened the window to ventilate.

He turned around and wrapped his arm around her shoulder. He lowered his head and said, “What’s wrong?”

Lin Qingqian shook her head and buried her head in his arms without saying a word.

“Then go to sleep.” Jiang Yanshen bent down and carried her to the bed to put her down.

Lin Qingqian sat on the bed but didn’t lie down. She watched as he pulled open the blanket and covered himself with it. When his slippers landed on the bed, she turned sideways and pulled open the bedside table, taking out a box.

Jiang Yanshen covered himself with the blanket and paused when he saw the box in her hand from the corner of his eye.

Lin Qingqian opened the velvet box and a sparkling diamond ring entered her vision. Her red lips curled up slightly. “Ah Yan, do you know why I’m unwilling to remarry?”

Jiang Yanshen’s eyes were deep as he stared at her quietly without saying anything.

Because he didn’t know.

Lin Qingqian turned her head to look at him, her clear eyes flowing with gentleness. “Because I always feel that as long as we don’t get married, when you want to break up one day, I can also convince myself that it’s just a breakup and not a divorce. I won’t be so sad.”

If a breakup was a serious injury, a divorce would be a process of skinning and tendon removal.

No one understood how determined she had been when she decided to get a divorce. No one would understand how exhausted she had been in that marriage. She had almost emptied herself and exhausted all her strength.

How could she dare to marry him again so easily?

Jiang Yanshen’s heart sank. His thin lips pursed slightly without saying anything, and his black eyes were filled with heartache as he stared at her.

Lin Qingqian took out the ring from the velvet box and looked up at him with a

smile. “Now that I’ve thought it through, no matter what happens in the future, I just have to respect my heart now.

Marriage might not guarantee our relationship. But at the very least, if something happens to one of us one day, the other party can legitimately sign and arrange the rest.

If we’re lucky, we can officially be buried together when we’re old.”

Her fair and slender fingers pinched the wedding ring, wanting to put on her ring finger.

Jiang Yanshen suddenly grabbed her wrist and refused to let go.

Lin Qingqian looked up at him in confusion..
