Although she had expected it, when hearing it, Su Qianci still felt panicked and stood up.
However, Lu Yihan reached out and quickly pressed her down. His pair of eyes, under the gorgeous lights around, looked bright and beautiful. He looked at her, perturbed. Lu Yihan slowly said, “How about a bet?”
Su Qianci was fascinated by his eyes and asked subconsciously, “What?”
“Aren’t you insisting that he is still alive?”
“Yes, he is still alive!” She did not hesitate to blurt out and looked at him resolutely. “Last time, my daughter and I were saved by him. If it weren’t for him, I am afraid we would have fallen to death.”
Lu Yihan heard this, and his heart became bitter. He was dead, he was dead. Everyone knew that he was dead, but why was she unwilling to accept the fact? Looking at her with pity, he said slowly, “Then let’s have a bet.”
Su Qianci pursed her lips and looked at him without speaking.
“If he is still alive, if the person that time was really him, then he would definitely come back. He hates me very much. You know that.” Lu Yihan curled his lips into a self-deprecating smile. “He would beat me up whenever he sees me. So, he will never put up with the fact that you and I are getting married, right?”
Yes, completely correct. In the past, she did not understand what Lu Yihan felt about her, but Li Sicheng had already seen it thoroughly. Therefore, he tried to block Lu Yihan from her side. Whenever he saw Lu Yihan, he saw him as an enemy and hid her well. She knew all of that. After hearing his words, she nodded.
“So, he will never stand the fact that you are going to marry me. If he is not dead, if he is still alive, he will definitely come back and try to ruin it.” Lu Yihan looked at her, and there was a secret pleading in the depths of his eyes. “You know his means and his character the best, don’t you?”
That’s true. He can’t accept it.
Su Qianci trembled and looked at him, asking, “You mean, we can use this method to force him out?” If Li Sicheng did not want to come out, she would never be able to find him.
“Yes.” Lu Yihan nodded in disbelief. “Try marrying me. If he comes out, I will let go and never badger you again. But if…he doesn’t come out, just give me a chance, will you?”
“Yihan…”
“The children need a dad.” Lu Yihan looked at her. “You are not alone. Qianqian, you have them. All three children have accepted me. If you let me be their father, it will be the most appropriate, won’t it? Do you want to raise the three children in a single-parent family for a lifetime? This is unfair to the children, Qianqian.”
However, if she accepted him, it would be the most unfair to him. Li Sicheng had lived in her heart for two lifetimes. She could not love any other man than him. Su Qianci looked at him, and her eyes became warm. Her voice choking, she said, “You know I have been waiting for him. I can’t think of you as anything else than a friend. Yihan, I…”
“Try it. If he is still alive, he will definitely come back to stop you from marrying me. Qianqian, don’t you want to see him?”
Lu Yihan’s words undoubtedly hit her weakness.
