As the man listened to the girl muttering about their future and their son and he felt her tangible warmth, his breathing turned heavy and he peered down, fiercely kissing her on the lips…
When Ye Wanwan felt the abrupt fiery heat on her lips, she blinked, surprised.
Eh?
So passionate today?
Isn’t he a bit overly passionate? It really caught me off guard…
I originally intended to chat a bit and warm things up!
The man’s hand lay over her smooth skin, and he uncontrollably pressed her body against his.
Ye Wanwan sharply detected the concealed unease in his emotions and reflexively ran her fingers through his hair.
Si Yehan’s spine stiffened abruptly, and he froze.
Ye Wanwan gently kissed Si Yehan on the chin. “Baby, what is it? Did something happen?”
Si Yehan stayed silent for a long time before finally asking, “Wanwan… have you really thought it through?”
Ever since he learned about Tangtang’s background, an intense sense that things were surreal kept haunting him these past few days. He felt like he was being suspended in the air.
Ye Wanwan was bewildered. “Thought through what?”
“Being together with me.”
Ye Wanwan rolled her eyes. “Rubbish. Of course I have. Does that require thinking?”
Si Yehan pinched the spot between his brows and dejectedly got up. He silently sat on the edge of the bed, an unshakable gloominess plaguing his features.
A moment later, the man blankly stared at some point in the air, his eyes unfocused as he hoarsely said, “The person in your heart… is a pure and fine gentleman revered by people, and I—I’m merely an evil dragon.”
“Nonsense!”
Ye Wanwan’s expression changed the second she heard Si Yehan describe himself like that.
From her hypnosis sessions and the memories and fragmented pieces she recovered, she’d remembered Si Yehan’s past, so she knew that Si Yehan absolutely wasn’t the kind of person he was referring to.
His intrinsic nature was more kind-hearted than everyone, purer than everyone.
It was just…
He was entangled with the evil dragon for too long and became the evil dragon himself. He stared at the abyss for too long, and the abyss reflected back.
In this world, there wasn’t another living creature who could defeat an evil dragon aside from another evil dragon. He might have defeated the evil dragon, but he became the kind of person he loathed the most.
Si Yehan said, “Wanwan, you don’t need to lie to yourself. There’s no one who knows me better than I know myself.”
What he was most afraid of wasn’t losing her. It was that she would regret it eventually one day.
Ye Wanwan solemnly stared at Si Yehan. “Ji Xiuran is wonderful. He’s pure and fine, he’s revered by everyone, and he’s loved and respected by everyone, including my previous self…”
With every word he heard, his eyes dimmed a degree.
Ye Wanwan continued, “And you—you’re an evil dragon, the Great Devil in everyone’s eyes. Everyone is afraid of you, fears you, but so what? In front of me, you always retract your pointy claws and sharp fangs. You’re always so gentle and kind-hearted. To me, you’re the best person.”
“You…” Every word and sentence that came from her caused intense emotion to billow in her eyes. Si Yehan’s originally fractured and collapsed world started to rebuild itself simply because of her simple words.
Every time Ye Wanwan called him gentle and kind-hearted, he actually fiercely detested himself inwardly.
However, he never expected her to actually say that.
