Chapter 1195: Reunion (8)
The whirlpools in his dark eyes grew deeper and deeper. Afraid of scaring the amnesiac treasure, Gu Yelin took a deep breath, regulated his Inner Breath, and suppressed the heat within him rapidly.
"Get some sleep, don’t overthink. I’ll always be here."
An Yiqing nodded, tightly gripping Gu Yelin’s large hand, and slowly fell asleep.
Even though she had lost her memory and her vision, there was a voice in her heart telling her that this man was the one person in the world she should never doubt and always trust.
Perhaps because of the exhaustion from all the turmoil on the ship, An Yiqing slept all the way until the next morning. Gu Yelin repeatedly assured the An Family that An Yiqing was merely sleeping deeply, easing their near-desperate anxiety.
The next morning, the warm sunlight poured into the room, its delicate rays scattering onto the little figure on the bed.
The room was quiet. On the large bed, Gu Yelin leaned against the headboard, his unwavering gaze fixed on the sleeping An Yiqing.
He hadn’t slept all night, nor had he changed his clothes. Last night, when he was about to change his clothes and remove An Yiqing’s hand, he discovered that even in her dreams, she grew extraordinarily restless.
Gu Yelin’s heart ached sharply as he grasped her hand again, calming her unease.
Seeing An Yiqing like this made Gu Yelin ache to the point of suffocation. She had lost her memory, lost her sight—this world was entirely foreign to her. Now, she seemed like a lonely orphan, without a past and uncertain of a future.
Amidst the pain, Gu Yelin felt a hint of joy. Even though the treasure had forgotten everything, she still trusted him unconditionally.
All night long, he sat there, unmoving, simply watching An Yiqing. His eyes bore faint traces of red, yet he felt an unprecedented sense of energy coursing through him.
Taking advantage of the shy little girl still being asleep, he slowly lowered his head and planted a deep kiss on her cheek.
