With that, he gently closed the door for her.

She could not sleep through the night.

He had accepted her for what it was like to be in love with her, but it was a pity that such a beautiful time had passed in the blink of an eye. In just a few days, she had fallen from heaven to hell, and not only did she lose a kidney, she had been suffering from a lifelong illness, and it was very likely that she had died young, even her only cherished child …

"Mom, why don't you want me …"

"Mom, I'm so cold …"

"Mom, I'm in pain …"

The shouts of a child woke her up abruptly. She touched her forehead and felt sticky to the point that it was covered in cold sweat.

She sat on the bed and stared blankly for a long time. When she came back to her senses and looked at the sky, she realized that it was already very bright. The next day had already arrived.

This time, she sat there silently for a long time without making any sound, until her phone finally rang.

She grabbed her phone and fed it to him. Suddenly, she found that there was no sound coming from the other side. After thinking for a while, she realized that it was the alarm clock that she had set last night.

She was speechless for a while, then helplessly shook her head and stood up. She recalled her dream from last night and was stunned for a long time.

No matter what, she would have to face this situation. When Si Lianye saw her again, she had already recovered her calm demeanor.

After a silent lunch, the two boarded the plane to return home.

This time, she didn't have any scruples. After sitting for a while, she said to him, "I want to rest for a while."

He stopped reading the magazine and looked at her with a smile.

She hesitated for a moment before resting her head on his warm shoulder. She kept telling herself that this was the last time she would ever love him again. She would never do this again.

She gradually closed her eyes. The dreams from last night had consumed so much of her energy that she barely had time to struggle before she fell into a deep sleep.

Si Lianye looked like he had thought of something along the way.

It wasn't until they arrived at the airport that she came to her senses and saw the side of his handsome face.

She was stunned as she looked at him and then at her surroundings. She felt a little embarrassed when she realized that she had slept all the way to her destination.

"I'm fine." He seemed to notice her uneasiness and comforted her, "You're not in a good condition right now, so it's normal to be lethargic. Don't mind it."

"But it will delay others." She was still very uneasy as she stood up and said.

"No problem, I've already told them." He also stood up, then took her bag and said, "Then let's go out."

She nodded and hurried out.

It was so embarrassing to fly back and forth twice. Could it be that she was drugged?

The thought came to her, and then she thought it ridiculous.

When he reached home, Le Le was still at school.

Si Lianye helped her by bringing the things in. She turned around and packed her luggage, then turned around to look at him.

Si Lianye looked at her deeply: "You're welcome." After saying that, she paused again. "You know that's not what I want to hear."

She paused, saying nothing.

Si Lianye laughed, and then walked over and gently caressed her hair: "I'm just joking, don't mind me, just pretend that I didn't say anything."

She couldn't help but ask, "Just what is the meaning of this?"

"What?" He was stunned.

"I don't believe you." She took in a deep breath and decided to reveal her cards to Si Lianye: "I don't believe you, Si Lianye. Even if you are displaying an incomparable expression to me right now, I will still never forget what happened five years ago. So, if you want to compensate me, that's fine.

Then she felt a hot breath in her eyes, making it hard for her to bear, and she turned her face away from him.

Si Lianye looked at her thoughtfully: "So that's how you see me."

"Isn't it?" "Perhaps the reason why you're so good to me is because I've already told you that Le Le is not your son. Therefore, you don't have to be this nice to me.

She spoke in a rush, her face flushed.

Si Lianye looked at her and slowly asked: "Are these your heartfelt words?"

She nodded. "Is it not?"

He shook his head. "You're wrong. Things aren't as complicated as you think."

"What?"

She looked at him quizzically.

He smiled slightly, gently picked up a strand of her hair and said: "I'm not treating you as compensation, I'm not doing it for Le Le." As he spoke, he looked at her resolutely: "Listen up, I did this not for any other reason, but for your own sake. You, I like you, I love you, and that's why I proposed to you, wanting to make you mine. Whether Le Le is my son or someone else's, I want you.

He finished speaking in one breath and stared deeply at her, his gaze filled with a sense of oppression, as if as long as she didn't say anything, he would immediately think of a way to make her listen to him again.

Under the pressure, she nodded slowly.

"Then, I'll ask again." Si Lianye breathed a sigh of relief in her heart as she reached out to put his arm around her waist and asked softly: "Are you willing to be my wife?"

His heart couldn't help but pound when he asked this question.

How he wished that she would nod her head in agreement, but to his disappointment, after a period of suffocating silence, she gently shook her head and took a step back. She whispered to him softly and firmly, "I'm sorry, I can't agree to that."

"Why?" Si Lianye could no longer hold it in and went forward to ask.

She smiled without the slightest hint of a smile: "There's no reason. I don't want to agree, it's as simple as that."

The fire in Si Lianye's eyes extinguished bit by bit, and in the end, became dim. She used all her strength to turn her head away from him.

Si Lianye took a step back, turned around and walked out.

When that heavy sound reached her ears, her whole body shuddered before falling powerlessly onto the sofa.

She was silent for a long time. In the end, she could not hold back her laughter.

Si Lianye, Si Lianye, in the end, you still have to fall in love with me.

However, she did not know why, but she was originally very happy when she reached her destination, but from beginning to end, she was depressed and could not muster up any energy. After thinking about it for a while, she felt that her condition was not very normal, so she called her friend: "alba?"

Shangguan Zhe's eyes immediately became serious. He immediately called for the people beside him to continue, but when he walked out of the conference room, he did not care at all that the thing that was being discussed was the huge project of hundreds of millions of dollars. "Xiran? What's wrong? "Are you in a bad mood?"

"Strange, how did you know?" She was surprised.

Shangguan Zhe laughed: "It's simple, you only call me alba when your emotions are very complicated and heavy. Didn't you go on a business trip and come back?"

She gave a soft "hmm" and jokingly said, "It seems that you really do understand me."

The meaning behind his words was that Shangguan Zhe's guess was right, he laughed and said: Of course, the person who knows you the best is me, who else could it be? Speak, what is it that you don't understand? "

She laid herself flat on the sofa, and with a trace of doubt and confusion in her eyes, she said to him, "Just last night, he asked me to marry him."

Shangguan Zhe's hand that was holding the phone tightened, and his heart suddenly dropped as if he had fallen into a bottomless abyss. "And then?"

"And then, I refused." she said in her most relaxed voice.

"Yeah, but you're still in a bad mood. Why?" He felt a great sense of relief at her refusal.

"I don't know. I thought he was just trying to atone for his sins, but just now, he told me, no, he said she was in love with me." she said with unspeakable melancholy.

His heart rose again. "Then what do you mean?"

"I feel that my current mood is very strange. I feel very good about it, and I actually thought that Si Lianye would have such a day. At the same time, I feel that my heart is very strange, just like … "It looks like …" She frowned as she tried to find an adjective.

"It's like my heart is sore and sore, like I ate a lemon?" Shangguan Zhe helped her think of an adjective.

"Yes, that's the feeling." She happily said, "You're really smart."

"You flatter me." Shangguan Zhe laughed bitterly. He knew in his heart that the reason he could say it so quickly was because he could often feel this kind of feeling.

Now, even if he didn't want to admit it, he knew that his beloved woman still harbored another man in her heart, even though she didn't want to admit it yet.

He pursed his lips and decided to be selfish for once. He didn't remind her, "That's why you're so upset. That's why you want to talk to me."

"Right." She straightforwardly agreed to play. Suddenly, she felt that something wasn't right and asked him, "What are you doing now? Am I going to disturb you? "

"It doesn't matter, I don't have anything on hand right now anyway, so I can talk to you about it." What Shangguan Zhe had said was very true, and it was as if he was speaking the truth. The subordinate who had just come out to seek his signature heard this and couldn't help but be shocked.

Right now, there was more than nothing important to him. He didn't need to do too much good things in the company. There were too many documents and matters to wait for the boss to make a decision.

Shangguan Zhe obviously did not know that his subordinates were spitting nonsense in their hearts, as he said without a change in expression, "It's fine, so I can chat with you for a bit longer."

"Alright then." She relaxed, lazily holding the phone as she asked, "How is our plan going?"

Shangguan Zhe's lips revealed a slight smile: Everything is proceeding smoothly, the information you have given me is very useful, continue with your hard work, also, we have made contact with a few small shareholders, and have already reached an initial agreement, so I congratulate you, our plan is progressing smoothly, and it is not far from your destination.
