Chapter 163 - 124: And I Am a Modern Person Who Traveled Here from Who Knows How Many Years in the Future_3
In this life, even after death, it’s a place unreachable.
"Nuannuan, if you dream about your fa... parents again, remember to tell them that there’s someone here who will take care of you as lovingly as they did.
No more pain, no more longing, no more discomfort. From now on, you have me, I’ll handle everything, and I will never let you be wronged again."
At this moment, Yelyu Lie truly understood.
His little darling didn’t like that Regent King at all. Even if that fool regrets later, it’s too late!
However, he should thank that fool too.
Without him, the true Great Xia princess wouldn’t have died, and his little darling wouldn’t have come from some unknown place to here.
Yelyu Lie held her tightly.
He had always inexplicably felt that he couldn’t hold onto his little darling, feeling that she might really leave at any moment.
He thought it was because of the shadow left in his heart from the time she ran away.
Thinking about it now...
Perhaps it was the sense of discord that she didn’t belong to this body, causing his anxiety.
The embrace tightened, Yelyu Lie thought deeply, "Nuannuan... will you... leave again?"
She said she came to inhabit this body for unknown reasons; does that mean she could leave at any time too?
What if she leaves?
The world is vast, where would he go to find her?
"No." Yun Chunnuan also held him tightly, "Coming here through time, the luckiest thing was meeting you. Even if the chance to go home was right in front of me now, I might... choose to stay."
"Really?!" Yelyu Lie was incredulous; after all, his little darling always got terribly sad whenever she mentioned her parents.
He thought that if given the chance to return, she would leave him without hesitation...
"Yes." The little darling nodded firmly, "My dad once told me that whether parents or children, they are mere passersby in life. The only one who can accompany you for a lifetime is your companion.
True love is hard to find in this world, only when you meet the right person can you stay together for life.
And I have found the right person.
Through unknown stretches of time, I came here just to come to you.
Yelyu Lie, I am so happy, meeting you is really my great fortune. So I won’t leave, never ever."
As she spoke, she pulled that big hand around her waist, drawing circles in his palm, "Let’s agree like this, we will be together for every life, okay? If there is a next life, and the one after that, let’s still be together, okay?"
Her sweet and soft voice lingered in his ears.
Yelyu Lie only felt his eyes heating up, a surge of emotion from the depths of his heart, making his whole body tingle, skin hairs standing on end.
"Okay." He slightly bent his head, his warm lips tightly kissed the brow of his little darling, again and again.
The tears of Yun Chunnuan had long blurred her little face.
Yet her heart felt more at ease than ever before.
Since crossing over to here, she had always longed for home, her parents, her world, while being tangled with this man’s kindness to her.
Knowing well she couldn’t go back, she’d still set herself pointless dilemmas, fantasizing about what to do if one day she really faced such a choice?
This feeling was like that ridiculous thought as a child: which should I choose, Qinghua or Peking University?
Now it’s fine, after telling this man everything, she suddenly felt incredibly relieved.
And at that moment, she spoke her heart’s truest thoughts.
She would stay.
To accompany him, for a lifetime.
Yelyu Lie let his little darling cry her heart out in his embrace.
She had been so aggrieved, holding these words in her heart from the moment she came to this body, for a very long time.
He was still bullying her back then.
How helpless and scared must she have been?
The more Yelyu Lie thought, the more his heart ached, wishing he could slap himself a few times.
Thankfully, from the start, he cherished her tears and didn’t trust the crap that marriage envoy spouted.
If there had been any mistake in his original choices, he would have missed this life’s most precious treasure.
"Yelyu Lie." Her small nasal voice came out.
Yelyu Lie actually wanted to correct her, it’s ’husband.’
But seeing her pitiful little look, his heart ached endlessly, using his rough thumb to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eye, his voice soft, "Hmm?"
"Great Xia Country is not my home. From the moment I opened my eyes, they hurt me, and harmed me. How did that bellyband end up in the marriage envoy’s hands? That scumbag had it in mind to harm the Little Princess from the start!"
