Chapter 456 - 434: I’ll Wait for You No Matter How Long it Takes
Lu Jinxi paused for a moment, then reached out and pulled her into his arms, comforting her, "Yinyin, forget about those unhappy pasts. From now on, I will take good care of you."Huo Nanyin looked up at him with a smile, her eyes showing a hint of lingering attachment because she never thought she could lean on him again and receive his love one day.
"I can’t forget him. Even now, I still haven’t forgotten. I’ve always wanted to go back and find him, but maybe he doesn’t remember me anymore."
Lu Jinxi was full of heartache, "Why insist on waiting for someone who can’t give you a future? Yinyin, marry me. Although I don’t have as much money as the person you mentioned, I will give you everything I have."
Huo Nanyin’s eyes couldn’t help but moisten. She looked at him with a knowing smile and said, "If I gave up, you wouldn’t have a chance now."
Lu Jinxi looked at her in confusion. She just smiled, then put the ring back in the box and said, "Let’s not rush into things. Wait until you regain your memory before making a decision."
"Yinyin, you don’t need to worry. I may not remember the past, but I remember the present. Even if I regain my memory, I won’t forget you, will I? No matter what my memory brings back, I will never let go of you."
"If... the person you met here wasn’t me, would you fall in love with a girl like her too?"
Lu Jinxi didn’t quite understand her words but answered earnestly, "If that person isn’t you, how would I know if I would fall in love? But I know that right now, I want to be with you."
"Aren’t you afraid there might be someone very important in your memory, and that you’ll regret marrying me later?"
"You are the most important person in my memory. The past is in the past. The person by my side now is you."
Huo Nanyin smiled, unsure whether to call it fate or destiny. She wasn’t unmoved by his words. She also longed to marry him. Though she once resented, she no longer did. She just feared that history would repeat itself.
When he regains his memory and returns to the Lu family, the barriers that separated them will still exist. Last time, she narrowly survived. What if she isn’t so lucky this time?
Seeing her dilemma, Lu Jinxi didn’t press her anymore. "Alright, I’ll wait for you no matter how long it takes. I really want to regain my past memories now so you can know my heart won’t change."
Huo Nanyin smiled, turned back to the room to put the box away, then walked out and asked him, "Do you want to go to the city?"
"The city? Off the island?"
"It’s even more prosperous than outside the island. When you drifted here, you were wearing an expensive suit, and your broken watch was also valuable. You must have come from a big city. You might remember something if you go there."
"Alright, we’ll go tomorrow!" In the past, when his unknown past was mentioned, he didn’t want to explore much. But now, he only wanted to quickly regain his memory so she could follow him with peace of mind.
At dinner, they told Ah Ma about going to the city. Ah Ma knew neither of them belonged here and wouldn’t try to keep them. Though she was reluctant, she could only let them have their wish. Early the next morning, Huo Nanyin bought boat tickets and embarked on the journey.
She didn’t know if helping him retrieve his memory was right or wrong. Maybe when he regains his memory, he’ll remember that she was the one he loved before. Or maybe they will still face the helplessness of the past and eventually part ways.
