C2717 Would He be Willing to Marry Me?
Actually, she had expected that this day would come. Jiang Ci would know the truth, but she did not expect it to come so quickly, so quickly that it seemed difficult for her to bear.
She did not dare to imagine how cold and disgusted Jiang Ci would be in the future, or perhaps he would never see her again, never appear in front of her again.
Her heart was already numb from the pain. Huo Yan lowered her head and covered her face with her hands. She did not want to think about this, but everything was still lingering in her mind.
At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open. She still covered her face and said hoarsely, "You guys go out, don't bother about me."
The person did not leave, and even walked towards her step by step.
Huo Yan removed her hands and slowly raised her head. When she saw Jiang Ci walking towards her, her face was filled with shock. "Jiang Ci!"
Jiang Ci walked in front of her and looked at her crying eyes. He bent down on one knee and said with a light smile, "Yan Er, let's get married."
Huo Yan stared at him blankly, as if she had heard wrongly, or as if she was hallucinating.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you that night, and I also didn't know that you have always liked me."
Huo Yan still did not speak.
"Yan Er, are you willing to marry me?" Jiang Ci asked softly.
Huo Yan suddenly lowered her head and closed her eyes.
She did not believe that this was real. She thought that she was hallucinating.
After a long while, she raised her head and opened her eyes again. The man's handsome face was still in front of her.
It didn't seem like an illusion.
Seeing her thoughts, Jiang Ci said, "It's not your illusion, it's me, Jiang Ci. I'm serious. I won't ignore you. You are different from other women." After a pause, he continued, "I went to look for your brother just now. He told me everything. Yan'er, you can't deny it, and you can't change the fact."
Huo Yan stared at him blankly for a long time before she slowly said, "Mr. Ci, everything was voluntary. It's not your responsibility. You don't have to be responsible for me. Just pretend that you don't know anything, okay? I've already caught Huo Fanrou. I won't let her say anything again, and I won't let anyone know about this."
"It's my responsibility. I did it, and the child is mine. Of course, it's my responsibility."
"No, it's not. I knew that you were... drugged, but I still ran into your room. If I didn't do that, you wouldn't have... Mr. Ci, thank you for being willing to care about me. You don't hate me or hate me..."
"You saved me. How could I hate you or resent you?"
"It's not..." Huo Yan choked, "Actually, I could ask Chu Xi for the antidote and send you to the hospital, but I didn't. This matter has never been your responsibility. You really... really don't have to be responsible for me."
Jiang Ci paused for a moment and said again, "Actually, I didn't do this because of my responsibility. Yan'er, do you remember when you were living in my house in Country E?"
Huo Yan was slightly startled, then she nodded.
"At that time, you were always by my side, eating breakfast and dinner with me, making me feel like I was not so lonely, and the house was not so cold."
Huo Yan's eyes moistened slightly, as if she couldn't believe it, "Really?"
"Really," Jiang Ci replied sincerely.
Huo Yan moved her lips, but she suddenly couldn't say anything.
Jiang Ci continued, "Actually, I wanted you to stay for a longer period of time, but you left in a hurry every day. I thought you didn't like to live with me, so I didn't say anything."
"I… I was pregnant at that time, so I was worried that you would see through it, so I hurriedly moved away." Huo Yan immediately explained.
"Yes, I know now. It's all my fault. If I had paid more attention to you at that time, I wouldn't have let you give birth to a child in Country E alone."
Huo Yan had never seen such a gentle Jiang Ci before. It was the first time he had said so much to her, making her feel like it was a dream, a sweet dream.
When she woke up, everything would change.
She lowered her head again, pursing her lips and not saying anything.
Jiang Ci looked at her quietly, waiting for her reaction.
Huo Yan raised her head slightly after a while. "Is this really not an illusion? Is this really not a dream?"
"No." Jiang Ci's slender and handsome hand suddenly grabbed her small hand and asked softly, "Do you feel the temperature?"
Huo Yan looked at the hand that was holding her hand. She felt the temperature of his hand and felt his strength. Her heart, which was about to stop beating, suddenly started beating faster and faster.
"I... I can feel it."
Jiang Ci looked at her and asked again softly, "Yan Er, are you willing to marry me?"
Huo Yan's heart was beating wildly. After a while, she finally regained her voice. " Mr. Ci, when I was with you, did I really make you feel so lonely?"
"Really. Otherwise, I wouldn't have allowed Chi Yi to deliberately delay the time for you to find a house."
"You know that Chi Yi did it on purpose?" Huo Yan asked in surprise.
At that time, Chi Yi always wanted to match the two of them. Huo Yan knew that, but she didn't expect that Jiang Ci also knew.
"I know, but I didn't stop him."
Huo Yan looked at him in disbelief. If Jiang Ci really needed her, if she could make Jiang Ci feel no longer lonely, she was willing, she was willing to stay by his side forever.
After a long time, she said softly, "Mr. Ci, I am willing to accompany you for the rest of my life."
Jiang Ci's thin lips curled up slightly and he smiled. "Okay."
