"Don't compare me to you either." An Ning replied.
"Okay, okay, okay." Jiang Lichuan said as he glanced at her exquisite curves, "Tell me first, have they gotten bigger?"
peaceful:"……"
"I have time every day this week, what about you?" Jiang Lichuan suddenly asked again.
"What?" An Ning didn't react. It doesn't matter whether you have time or not. What do you want to do?
"marry."
These two words were said by Jiang Lichuan as a matter of course, but An Ning felt a little abrupt when he heard them.
"Jiang Lichuan, this is too fast."
"Quickly? Or... you have no intention of marrying me at all?" Jiang Lichuan said.
Under his suddenly sharp gaze, An Ning lowered her gaze slightly and turned to one side, feeling guilty.
"Not in a short time." She replied truthfully.
However, Jiang Lichuan said: "What if I insist on you starting to make this plan?"
From his sharp sword-like eyes, An Ning saw a determination to win by any means necessary.
Want to threaten her again?
An Ning immediately said: "Jiang Lichuan, don't forget that you just promised me to let my cousin go."
However, Jiang Lichuan just said calmly: "Oh, have I ever said such a thing?"
Seeing him acting shamelessly, An Ning immediately said: "Jiang Lichuan, you can't be so shameless. You just said it yourself, as long as I...I admit that I love you, you will let my cousin go."
"Are you sure?" Jiang Lichuan raised his eyelids slightly and smiled brightly and cunningly, "Are you sure I said that?"
"Don't deny it, you obviously..." An Ning said, and suddenly became speechless under his playful gaze.
Yes, he did not say that, he just created an illusion for her that he said it.
For a moment, An Ning's face darkened, but just when she thought Jiang Lichuan was going to repeat his same trick and threatened her with cutting off An Xiaofeng's arms and legs, Jiang Lichuan said: "An An, you should at least be kind to me.
The most basic trust, although it is very satisfying to catch a person's weakness and step on it hard, but that is for those enemies who are not worthy of respect. You are not an enemy, you are the most important person in my life.
The most important person."
Zhou Lu also said that sentence when we were downstairs, and there was basically no difference in a few words.
An Ning couldn't help but wonder, "Am I already under your surveillance from the first moment I walked into the Painted World?"
"Why do you see that?" Jiang Lichuan raised his eyebrows.
"Zhou Lu also said this when we were downstairs about my lack of basic trust in you."
"Do we need surveillance to know this? You must have already convicted me in your heart when you opened the door and entered. You believed that the person inside was An Xiaofeng, and you believed that I would treat him like that, didn't you?"
Jiang Lichuan's expression was extremely calm when he said this, and there was no trace of waves in his eyes.
But An Ning couldn't help but feel a little thump in her heart, feeling like she was a very small person.
"An'an, you remember what I told you, how I accumulated my wealth in the first place was not just speculation. There are not so many lucky people in this world. As you can see, I am indeed
You can do things like that, even things that you think are more incredible and cruel."
His expression told her that what he was talking about was definitely a fact, a fact that didn't sound bloody, but the detailed details must be unacceptable to ordinary people.
"Are you scared?" Jiang Lichuan looked at her slightly frowned brows and smiled, "But you will not have a way out. I will never give you a way out. You can try your best to redeem me, but I will give you
You have a better suggestion, An An, the eighteenth level of hell is actually more like the human world."
He was obviously smiling, but An Ning felt sad again and again.
"So, you see, you are right to lack basic trust in me. Don't trust me. I don't need you to believe that I am a good person and that I will take you to heaven. I just need you to believe what you should believe."
An Ning was confused by him, "What should you believe?"
Jiang Lichuan took her hand and put it against his heart, saying: "I believe you are the most important person to me. I believe that I will never feel better when you are sad. I believe that if you are hurt, then I
The wound in my heart must be more tragic than yours. I believe that I intend to lie in the coffin with you hand in hand. Even if it is eaten by insects and ants and rots, don't be afraid. I am by your side... As long as you believe this,
Will suffice."
The palms of her hands felt the firm and powerful heartbeat in his chest. An Ning was so shaken by it that she couldn't utter a single syllable. She just looked at the faint smile on his lips through the rising mist in her eyes. Quiet, nothing.
The gorgeous colors are like the faintest cloud in the sky, looming but making the whole sky shine with it.
Suddenly, An Ning thought of the essence of the marriage she had always wanted. It didn't need to be grand or colorful, but just plain and steady.
"I know an old Swedish couple. They are over ninety this year. They have four generations living together. However, there has never been a piece of paper between them. And they are more mature than any couple I have ever seen.
She still wants to be affectionate. I'm afraid you won't believe it. He still kisses her secretly to this day. He also gives her wild flowers picked by himself. He also says "I love you more" when she says "I love you".
You', but this is country A. Who makes my little girl very traditional and extremely insecure? I don't necessarily have to register for marriage. The reason for doing this is just to tell you that if the constraints of marriage can make you
If your wandering heart begins to settle down, then we will register."
An Ning did not deny that she was indeed somewhat traditional in her bones. The only heroic thing she had done in her life was to have a one-night stand with him and then to have a one-night stand, and she lost her heart again during the one-night stand.
The reason why she feels pain is also because of the constraints of traditional moral concepts.
She could tell herself that Lu Zhandong slept with more than one woman while their marriage was still alive. She just fell in love with him unexpectedly. Even if he had a one-night stand later, she had nothing to do with him. The only thing she was sorry for was that this relationship existed in name only.
It's just a ridiculous marriage.
However, she could not convince herself to accept continuing to have sex with a married husband.
But for marriage...
She used to think that only by getting married could she have security and real possessions. However, after experiencing a failed marriage, all her naive ideas had been overturned one by one.
Reality teaches people more.
"Jiang Lichuan, you have to understand two things. First, I agree that if two people really love each other, they don't need that piece of paper to bind them. If they don't love each other, even if they get married, they will divorce at some point. And even if they endure it all the time,
If we don't divorce, it will be a great torture for both of us until death. Secondly, if I really get married again, I will not divorce again, so I must be cautious and prudent in this matter."
"I have no plans to get divorced again. You also said that I am an evil capitalist. Everything I do will be carefully considered. Life is like a chess game and I have no regrets." Jiang Lichuan said.
"Then we'll all think about it again."
"You don't understand what I mean. I mean... I have thought carefully about marrying you."
I've said so much, but it's all in vain.
"Jiang Lichuan, you..."
"Shh..." Jiang Lichuan put a finger on her lips, "I'll correct it a bit, just think that I'm insecure and need marriage as a guarantee."
"Are you insecure? Are you kidding me?"
"Because the target is you, you will sneak away when I am not paying attention. Tell me, can I not feel insecure?"
"Someone gets married and has a quarrel and runs away from home!"
"Are you reminding me to just break your legs?"
"I'm reminding you that your reason for feeling insecure is not valid."
"What about Lu Zhandong? This reason is valid!"
Why did you go back again?
"I said, he is already in the past tense."
"For you, he is, but for him? Maybe it's just the beginning!"
An Ning was silent for a moment. Just like she knew how Jiang Lichuan treated her, but still deliberately told herself "he doesn't love me", she also had the same mentality towards Lu Zhandong, no, even more intense resistance.
But there are some differences between the two. She resists admitting her feelings for Jiang Lichuan, mainly because this feeling may be out of her control at any time, spread wantonly, and then hurt others.
But for Lu Zhandong, just because she once made a big mistake on him, so even if she saw the passion, regret, and pain in his eyes, she still chose to ignore it. The indifference was not because of attraction.
I'm wavering, but... there won't be any marriage, so why are you thinking so much about it? Isn't it a waste of brain cells?
For Lu Zhandong, it was just the beginning. For her, her love for him had already died when their marriage was still in name only. Divorce was just a formal announcement of the end.
That's all.
"An'an, you can't deny that you once loved him so much. It's just 'love'. The future is full of 'variables'. So you see, I care about Lu Zhandong much more than you care about Bai Jinyu.
Doesn't this explain it? Furthermore, have you considered the child in your belly? What an illegitimate child with an unknown father has to face is definitely beyond your imagination. I will never allow my child to become an illegitimate child, unless you want to
He killed his existence before he took shape, so An'an, if you really do that, you have to remember that you owe me a life." Jiang Lichuan said again.
child……
An Ning felt his heart feel heavy.
"I...will consider..." she could only reply.
But this is obviously not what Jiang Lichuan wants. "I don't have to ask for your consent. In one week, either you marry me or I marry you. There is no third option. But before that..."
As Jiang Lichuan spoke, something suddenly appeared in his hand.
An Ning took a look and saw that the golden thing hanging under the red rope was the ring hanging around her neck, wasn't it? She touched her chest again, and sure enough, it was empty!
"I'll keep it for you temporarily. You can take it as... the token of love you gave me." Jiang Lichuan said, clasping his palms.
