Jing Jiaren held the contract as if she had found a treasure...
When he signed one page, she took out one and held it in her hand, fearing that he would regret it at any time. With three copies in her hand, she sorted them out and said, "It means you have chosen to live."
Ximen Longting stretched out his hand coldly.
Jing Jiaren immediately took two steps back: "Do you want to regret it?"
Ximen Longting smiled coldly: "Once I have done something, I will never give myself room to regret it."
"Um?"
"Now that the contract is signed, I will cooperate with this operation." He promised, "If I don't want to cooperate, what if I sign the contract?"
That's right... the contract is just waste paper to him, what matters is his decision.
"Come here, let me hold you." He stretched his hands in the air.
Jing Jiaren let go of the contract and walked to the bed to let him hold her.
Ximen Longting leaned his sharp chin on her shoulder and said, "Beauty, this decision proves that I have chosen you."
Jing Jiaren's back stiffened.
"I will not marry Ji Zihan."
"Why?" Jing Jiaren turned back to look at him in surprise.
"Originally, I got married to Ji Zihan, and I planned to use this wedding to die together with the old man," he said of his plan. "I was afraid that the operation would fail, and I was afraid that if I died, I would not have time to take revenge, and let the old man continue to live freely."
Jing Jiaren: "...Then you are not afraid now?"
"Now I'm looking forward to surviving the surgery..." He held her in his broad hand, "I can't bear to leave you."
Jing Jiaren's heart hurt so much, like rocks being hit one after another. The pain made her lips tremble and she was speechless.
She turned her face away slightly to prevent him from seeing her strange expression.
"I decided to have the surgery because I wanted to survive and let's live together."
"Why didn't you want to live with me before?" she asked hoarsely.
"Your anklet puts you in danger. Even if my operation is successful, I can't protect you," he said secretly, "No matter what happens, my first thought is to protect you."
He would rather die than let Jing Jiaren live. This was his choice before finding the "Heart of the Deep Sea".
And they lived together, and he lived with her. This was the choice he made after finding the "Heart of the Deep Sea".
Jing Jiaren's heart ached, it turned out that she had always been the one to make the decision.
She originally thought that Ximen Longting couldn't let go of his hatred for Mr. Ximen...
"Ximen Longting, don't be so nice to me." Jing Jiaren stretched out her hand and pulled him tightly, breathing in his scent greedily.
"Idiot, if I'm not nice to you, who will be nice to you?"
"You will make me addicted..." She took a deep breath, "It will make me greedy for you and I will never be able to leave you again."
Ximen Longting slowly raised the corners of his eyes, Qingjun said with a shocking smile: "This is the effect I want!"
"Then what are you going to do if you don't marry Ji Zihan?" Jing Jiaren turned back and asked him, "Continue to hide me and live the same life as before?"
"I'll take you to elope."
Jing Jiaren clenched her hands tightly. He wanted to take her to elope?
"The Ximen family doesn't want it anymore? Is your eldest son Ximen a bad boy?" She couldn't believe it, "Drop everything and come with me?"
"I'm not even afraid of death, do you think I still care about this?" Ximen Longting said in a serious tone.
Jing Jiaren was so heartbroken that she couldn't speak: "Aren't you afraid that Mr. Ximen will hunt us down?"
"Of course I won't let him find us."
But she didn't find the real heart of the deep sea...
