Lu Yanchen looked at her once before turning his sights onto her parents’ photo, speaking softly, “Thank you for raising her so well, to be so courageous to have saved my life. Without her, my life would have ended in that river. She is the only reason why I’m alive right now, and the only reason why I’ll be as well. I love her. But, I know that you guys loved her more than I do. Your entire family was living a blessed life in the past. It was all because…”
He paused for a moment. “… of me that everything happened in your family that had you guys leaving her prematurely. She had always been alone. I wish to be with her, but I don’t want to leave her because of this reason! If you guys get angry because I insist on being with her, please don’t blame her for it. All of it is my fault, please blame me instead!”
“I promise you guys that I will take good care of her. Even if she’s the most ungentle, unvirtuous, unreasonable, and even venomous woman on this world, I will definitely love, pamper, and cherish her even more so than I care for my own life.”
s.h.i.+ Guang listened slowly as she started sniffling, feeling a surging warmth in her heart.
She sniffed and looked at him. “Even though my temper isn’t that great sometimes, you shouldn’t say that I’m the most ungentle, unvirtuous, unreasonable, and venomous woman!”
Lu Yanchen looked at her, then at her parents’ photo again and smiled out exasperatedly. “Father, mother, look, she’s trying to find trouble with me again.”
s.h.i.+ Guang pouted her mouth. “I merely said a statement. How is it my fault again?”
“No, it’s not your fault.” Lu Yanchen shook his head. “It’s mine. It’s also my fault for the quarrel previously. I’m apologizing to you now.”
“Lu Yanchen,” s.h.i.+ Guang’s heart was going all fuzzy right now as she choked out, “T-This is the first time you’re apologizing to me all serious.”
“And I’ll always apologize to you when we quarrel in the future.” He reached out and held her hand.
“Does that mean that you won’t look down on me, bully me, or get fierce at me again?” s.h.i.+ Guang truly had not expected him to apologize to her. After all, there was no true right party in a quarrel between husband and wife.
As long as he would give her a platform to let her ego down, she would take it as though nothing had happened.
Lu Yanchen raised his hand and swore. “I swear to your parents that I will never ever bully or get fierce at you again!”
“You’re short of something.” Her eyes shone with sparks of tears as her lips curled up into a beautiful, natural smile.
“I’ve never ever looked down on you. Since when have I done so?” He would occasionally give off looks of contempt, but those were often times when he liked her the most as well.
“You’re saying everything for real?”
“How would I dare lie in front of your parents? If any single word was a lie, I’d die a horribl…”
s.h.i.+ Guang covered his mouth. “Don’t talk nonsense… We can look down on one another mutually occasionally as well. I heard that it will help improve our relations.h.i.+p.”
She then hugged him tightly.
In the past, she was afraid that if she were to just be with Lu Yanchen as though nothing was wrong, it would seem as though it was a selfish excuse for herself in the name of love.
But now, if she were going to be selfish, so be it. Her parents had told her in the past that even if they couldn’t always be by her side because of their work, they were still the people who loved her the most in this world.
If so, they wouldn’t blame her for being selfish, right?
