"Apart from you, it's hard for me to fall in love with anyone else," Lu Chaoge said seriously. It seemed that in her heart, there was nothing more serious and important than this in the world.
She confessed! Was this a confession?
In the end, she still said it!
Although she knew that it wouldn't end well, after saying it out, her depressed mood was relieved a lot. The big stone in her chest shifted a little, at least she could breathe normally now —
However, after she had done this, her heart was filled with guilt.
She put down the chopsticks in her hand, like a child who had done something wrong. She looked at Fang Yan who had a gloomy expression and said, "I know I'm being selfish by doing this. You purposely rushed to Huacheng, especially made such a sumptuous dinner, and then told me that you're getting married — I already understood what you meant. I'm not stupid, and I'm a very scheming woman, right? "
"I know, you don't want to hurt me, you don't want to make me wait for too long, you want to solve this problem in a relaxed and casual state — Yes, I have to admit, I've become a problem in your heart."
"It's not like that —" Fang Yan wanted to explain.
"Fang Yan, just like how you understand me, I also understand you." Lu Chaoge interrupted Fang Yan's words. Her feelings were actually the same as Fang Yan's. Fang Yan didn't want her to get hurt, and she also didn't want to put Fang Yan in a difficult position. "You know my feelings for you, so you've been avoiding talking about it. It's good to avoid it, at least it won't make our relationship so awkward — at least there won't be a gap between us, and our cooperation has always been so tacit. "
"But now, you've met your destined lady, the woman you want to spend the rest of your life with. You're getting married, and this is something to be happy about. As your friend and business partner, I should say congratulations — Actually, when I heard this news, my heart was very heavy, and I felt very depressed, as if I couldn't breathe. But I still want to congratulate you — You must have chosen a very outstanding woman. You like her, and she also loves you deeply. You two are a perfect match. "
"You are also very outstanding," Fang Yan said in a deep voice.
"Yes. I'm also very outstanding. I've always thought so. "Lu Chaoge smiled and said," After my parents passed away, I was alone. She ate alone, slept alone, read alone, traveled alone, went abroad alone — and then came back to Rosefinch. Under the watchful and guarded eyes of the men, fighting for power with them — "
"Many times, I wonder what my life would be like if I hadn't returned from America, if I hadn't entered Rosefinch Secondary. She listened to the Jiang Family, married the son of her enemy, and pretended that she never knew about those things. Or was he killed by the father and son of the Jiang family because he resisted, and his body was thrown into the sea — but that is only if. "
"I came to Rosefinch, and you also came to Rosefinch. We met, and you saved my life again and again. You changed my life, and because of me, you changed your own life — I even think, if it wasn't for me, perhaps your father wouldn't have died —"
"This has nothing to do with you. Don't think too much. "Fang Yan stopped her.
"Fang Yan, I can't help but think. I know how much trouble I've brought you, and I know how many enemies I've brought you — the Rubik's Cube is a devil that tempts people to commit crimes. It makes countless people covet it, and it makes them do the craziest and most inhumane things. I can't protect it, and it has always been you who has been protecting it — "
"Many people wonder why I said that Chao Yan is your Chao Yan — she should be your Chao Yan. How much you've sacrificed for it, and how much effort you've put in. Those people don't know, but I remember it in my heart — so, during the three years you were gone, no matter how difficult it was, no matter how dangerous it was, I gritted my teeth and persevered. I told myself — Lu Chaoge, you must hold on. They want to defeat you, and they want to take away the Rubik's Cube from your hands — this Rubik's Cube is not only the blood and sweat of your parents, but also the blood and sweat of Fang Yan, because they've sacrificed too much for it — "
"Before I met you, my biggest dream was to avenge my father. I've been looking for an opportunity to let the father and son of the Jiang family get what they deserve — but I know better than anyone that I'm no match for them. If I show even the slightest flaw, I might be killed by them — "
"Do you know? I've even prepared to accept Jiang Zhuliu's proposal. Because only then, I can have the chance to do what I want to do. And only then, can I let down the Jiang family's guard against me — can you understand that? I've endured that kind of vigilant gaze every day, as if they're guarding against a thief — for more than ten years. Every day, every year, it's the same. "
"In fact, I've already given up all hope. I know it's hard for me to fight against the father and son of the Jiang family — but at that time, you appeared. You gave me the courage to refuse, and you also gave me the hope to avenge my parents, and indeed, you helped me do it — you may not be able to imagine how happy I was when Kiang Long Tan and Jiang Zhuliu got the punishment they deserved, when the part of Longtu Group that originally belonged to my parents returned to me — because it meant that my parents could finally rest in peace in the underworld. They could finally heave a sigh of relief, close their eyes quietly, and rest for a while. When they saw that I was living in my enemy's house, they must have been so worried that they couldn't sleep well, right? "
"Fang Yan, I'm 29 years old this year. If I can only live to 60 years old, I've already lived half of my life. The first half of my life, I lived for revenge, but what am I going to live for in the second half? In the past, I thought that I wanted to build an economic empire for you, and I wanted you to have the strength to fight against any enemy — no matter if your opponent was the Jiang family or any other family, Chao Yan would always be your strong shield. "
"I wanted Chao Yan Technology to become the world's number one energy company, and I wanted you to become the richest man in the world — I thought I could do it, and I never dared to slack off. Because this is what I promised you, so I must do it. "
"Actually —"
"Actually, you don't have to do that? You don't have to work so hard? "Lu Chaoge smiled bitterly and shook her head. "Fang Yan, apart from this, what else can I do? My parents are gone, and my aunt is also gone. I don't have any relatives in this world, and even my friends are pitifully few — tell me, what should I live for? People have to do something when they're alive, right? They have to have some spiritual support, right? "
"— —"
"Don't worry, I'm not telling you this to make you change your mind — —" Lu Chaoge had a slight smile on her face, as if she was laughing at herself for saying such words and doing such things. When a man told you that he was going to get married, she jumped out and said that she liked him, loved him, sacrificed so much for him, and was pitiful and lonely — this kind of behavior was really unforgivable. "I've said it before, the woman you choose must be an excellent woman, and it must be the woman you love deeply. No matter what, I still want to say my blessings to you — — Fang Yan, I hope you will be happy and blessed."
"Thank you," Fang Yan said gratefully.
"But, since I said such words and did such — — things that are hard for people to accept and understand, I still want to ask — — I know that if I don't do this, I may not have another chance in the future. Is this the last time I ask you to stay? Or is it an attempt? No matter what, Fang Yan, I want to ask you: Do you like me? "
"— —"
"If it's possible — — I think it's good for us to get married. You can focus on what you like to do, and you can pursue the martial arts you want — — I'll take care of your business, give birth to a few children, clean up your house — — we can live here, or we can buy a bigger house. I know what kind of food you like to eat, I know what kind of flavors you like, I remember every single one of them. We — we can live together, not alone — alone after work, alone for dinner, alone for TV, alone for sleep, alone for wake up, alone for shopping, alone for couple's accessories — "
"Chaoge — —" Fang Yan tried very hard to open his mouth, but he didn't know what to say. Say, okay, let's get married, get off work, eat, watch TV, sleep, get up, go shopping together, buy couple's accessories together — — say, let's get married, you'll give birth to my children, clean up my house, and take care of my life, and make me the happiest man in the world.
Or say nothing, walk over, and hold her tightly in his arms.
Fine beads of sweat began to appear on Fang Yan's forehead, and even his legs began to tremble.
This was the most difficult choice he had ever encountered in his life — — whether in the past or in the future, there shouldn't be a moment more difficult to choose than this one.
Lu Chaoge nervously waited for Fang Yan's answer, waiting for his final choice.
But when she saw that he was even more nervous than she was, she began to feel sorry for him.
Why did she have to make things so difficult for a man?
She pushed the chair away, stood up, walked over to Fang Yan, and leaned over to kiss Fang Yan's lips.
She desperately asked for it, putting her lilac tongue into Fang Yan's mouth, twisting and stirring.
A long, long time passed.
She pushed Fang Yan away, panting, and said with tears in her eyes, "Fang Yan, I know your answer. This time it's true — — I wish you happiness. "
