After ten years of waiting, Gu Zichen still didn't come to Country M, let alone Gu Zichen's promise.
Now ten years have passed, but time has not affected Leng Aotian. He is still the same as he was ten years ago, as cold and young as ever, and there is no trace that he is in his thirties anymore.
He still looks like he was in his twenties before.
They are getting older and older, men look younger and younger, but women look older and older.
Leng Aotian remains unchanged as he was ten years ago, but Ye Lan, who has been guarding him, is already old.
There are already several gray hairs on her hair, her body is not as flexible as when she was young, and there are even a few crow's feet on her face. But what remains unchanged is that she is still guarding Leng Aotian.
"Young Master Leng, otherwise, you can find an heir in our Country M." Ye Lan suggested.
Today's Country M is no longer the original Country M. Under Leng Aotian's management and rule, Country M has become richer and stronger. Not only in terms of weapons and military, Country M is among the strongest.
Strong.
It is the dream of many people to become the head of state of country m.
Everyone in country m knows that Leng Aotian has no heirs, so they are all waiting for Leng Aotian to announce the successor.
Since he has no heirs, he must be chosen from country M.
Leng Aotian exhaled a long breath, seemingly very melancholy: "That won't work, I just have my eye on that little guy Zi Chen. The others are not as good as him."
"I created Country M with my own hands. To say that I have no feelings would be a lie. So I must hand over Country M to someone worthy of my trust. That person must be Gu Zichen!"
Ye Lan smiled and sighed helplessly: "Young Master Leng, why are you so persistent? You actually know that where Gu Manman is, Gu Zichen will be there. He will not follow you to country M."
"Furthermore, with Gu Zichen's talent, he will not be willing to inherit what others have. Instead, he will think about what he has worked hard for. So, Mr. Leng, you should think about it again."
She knew that Leng Aotian had been sitting in this position for a long time, and even if he wanted to let go, he couldn't do it.
She knew that Leng Aotian was very lonely now and wanted to leave this seemingly superior position.
"Master Leng, you are already over thirty, you should think about your marriage quickly. You can't be alone, you need a family and a child..."
Leng Aotian rejected her suggestion without thinking: "Ye Lan, I have said this many times. Except for Gu Manman, I will not have a relationship with any woman, let alone other women.
After getting married, I, Leng Aotian, will wait for her all my life."
"But Mr. Leng, Gu Manman has her own family, husband, and children. She can't have a relationship with you! If you wait any longer, you will get the same result. It doesn't make any sense!"
When Ye Lan heard his words, her heart throbbed inexplicably. She wanted to wake up Leng Aotian every time and tell him not to have such thoughts, but she failed every time.
Leng Aotian spoke lightly, but his eyes were full of determination: "Ye Lan, I know what you want to say. But what I also want to tell you is that I will not give up. Never. I know that Gu Manman is
You will never be able to be with me again in your life."
"But I am also willing to watch her happiness all my life. She is my obsession that I will never let go of. So, no matter what, I am willing to spend my whole life protecting her."
His idea was very simple. It was her business who Gu Manman wanted to be with for the rest of her life. He just wanted to watch her, protect her, and see her happy for the rest of his life. Even if he had to be alone for the rest of his life, he would be happy with it.
Tears seemed to be welling up in Ye Lan's eyes, "Young Master Leng, why are you so stupid?"
Leng Aotian's temperament is like this. Before, he ignored human life and had no regard for human life. He was a complete "bloodthirsty demon". Everyone was afraid of him and stayed away from him.
Only Gu Manman gave him warmth when he was most lonely and cold. The remaining traces of warmth at that time have been carefully taken care of by him until now, and he will never forget the warmth.
If Gu Manman does something wrong in the future and everyone wants to kill her, then he will definitely favor Gu Manman without hesitation, stand in front of her, and kill everyone in order to protect her, no matter whether she is right or wrong.
It was a mistake. As long as that person was her, she would never be wronged.
"What about you? Ye Lan, you have been with me for ten years, why are you still not married? Why are you not living your own life?" Leng Aotian looked at her indifferently.
Ye Lan paused and couldn't help but smile a few times: "Young Master Leng, it's too late now. I'm already old, and as I get older, it's impossible to have children. So, I still have to marry.
What's the point? It's better to stay by your side."
Her thoughts are actually the same as Leng Aotian's. Leng Aotian is willing to spend his whole life guarding Gu Manman and waiting for Gu Manman. She, Ye Lan, is also willing to guard Leng Aotian and wait for Leng Aotian her whole life.
Even if she spends her whole life without a son or a daughter, she is still willing.
"Silly woman, country M is at peace now. Otherwise, if you follow me, you will be putting your neck on the edge of a knife. Haven't you ever been afraid?"
Leng Aotian didn't know how to describe his feelings. He felt guilty for Ye Lan.
He always felt that he was dragging Ye Lan down.
Ye Lan nodded: "Of course I have been afraid. I am also a human being and I have feelings. I have been afraid, but I have never thought about leaving, because you are still here, Mr. Leng, so how can I leave?"
She firmly stated that she would never leave.
The next day, the hospital sent a report.
After Ye Lan got the sealed report, she gave it to Leng Aotian: "Master Leng, the report about you was sent from the hospital."
Leng Aotian waved his hand lightly: "Open it and read it to me to find out what it is."
He trusts Ye Lan, so even if it is such sealed information, he can trust her to open it and learn about it.
Ye Lan nodded, then opened the sealed bag and took out a piece of information.
She paused and then continued: "Young Master Leng, it's... the hospital is concerned about you..."
Leng Aotian paused: "What? Tell me the whole story."
Ye Lan's face turned red all over, as if she couldn't get rid of the blush on her face.
"Well, how can this be easy to say? Mr. Leng, don't you know what you did when you went to the hospital before?"
The more he listened, the more confused he became, and then he stretched out his hand towards Ye Lan: "Bring it here, let me see for myself."
She hugged the information in her arms tightly, and then took a few steps back, as if she mustered up her courage.
"Master Leng, when did you go to the hospital to donate sperm?"
