"What’s wrong with you? Why aren’t you saying anything?" Xue’er was getting a bit anxious while waiting, and she couldn’t help but urge him. She was an impatient person, and she was truly worried seeing Mu Qiancheng .
She wanted to know what was going on with Mu Qiancheng before, why he seemed so sullen. Logically, seeing her earn money and join the Calligraphy Association, he should be happy.
But he didn’t seem too happy, rather he appeared to be burdened with heavy thoughts.
"Xue’er, I just, just..." Seeing Xue’er getting anxious, Mu Qiancheng bit his lip, and finally spoke, "I’m just worried that you might leave me. After all, you’re so outstanding now, and I’m afraid I don’t match up to you. I’m even more afraid that I can’t protect you."
As soon as he said that, Xue’er was stunned. She never imagined that Mu Qiancheng’s concern was this. She had thought, had thought that Mu Qiancheng’s feelings for her had changed, even doubting his love for her.
Thinking of it like that, Xue’er immediately felt guilty, feeling she had wronged Mu Qiancheng. So, she reached out, wrapped her arms around Mu Qiancheng’s waist, and said, "Fool, what are you thinking so carelessly for? No matter how outstanding I become, am I not still your wife? Don’t worry, for this lifetime, I won’t leave you. Unless, unless, you don’t want me anymore."
Xue’er originally hadn’t planned to confess to Mu Qiancheng so soon, but she hadn’t expected him to think this way. To stop him from thinking wildly, she had to confess.
This way, he shouldn’t worry that she would leave him anymore.
"No, I wouldn’t, how could I not want you? I couldn’t adore you more, otherwise, I wouldn’t have let my mom go to your house to propose, nor insist on marrying you when you didn’t want to."
"Since you wouldn’t not want me, you can put your mind at ease, I also won’t leave you."
"Really?" Mu Qiancheng was still a bit incredulous; he felt like he was dreaming.
"Of course it’s true." Xue’er said sincerely. She knew that she had done some foolish things previously, causing Mu Qiancheng to lack confidence in her. However, she would change, she would let Mu Qiancheng see that she was not the same Jiang Xue as before.
The person she was now was no longer the silly Jiang Xue who only caused trouble and thought about divorcing him. The person she was now only wanted to love him well, then have a few children with him, and accompany each other into old age.
"I believe you!" Mu Qiancheng smiled, very pleased. Xue’er wouldn’t leave him, that was wonderful. At the same time, he secretly made a decision in his heart, to better protect Xue’er, he must quickly become stronger.
It seemed that when he returned, he must contact that person. Previously, he had rejected the other party because he felt that even without relying on him, he could achieve what he wanted. It was just a matter of taking some more time, and he had time.
But now, he eagerly wanted to become stronger. He didn’t want to delay protecting his beloved due to time constraints.
After clearing the air, both Mu Qiancheng and Xue’er felt relieved. Mu Qiancheng glanced down at Xue’er, then looked at her slender jade-like hand wrapped around his waist, and a smile spread across his face. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
He gently removed his little wife’s hand, then lay down beside her.
Seeing that Mu Qiancheng also lay down, and lay down beside her, Xue’er’s mind couldn’t help but drift to what had happened when she woke up in the morning, causing her face to flush again as she turned her head, not daring to look at him further.
