Chapter 429: I Believe, It’s Fate Between Us
At that time, Shi Nuan was eleven and Song Yansheng was nineteen. His feelings towards Shi Nuan were already different.
But Song Yansheng himself was unaware, and he had no intention of revealing it, thinking that protecting Shi Nuan was nothing significant for him.
As for protecting Song Yansheng’s father and mother, he wasn’t worried, since his foster father Zhong Jinnan was still in the country and could handle it.
After that, to protect Shi Nuan, he met with Shi Nuan more often, albeit always in disguise and under the guise of surveillance.
Shi Nuan never noticed him, or perhaps she simply didn’t bother to notice him.
This situation persisted for about a year until suddenly, Song Yansheng forbid him from contacting Shi Nuan, saying he had entrusted someone else with the task of protecting her.
At that time, Song Yansheng was twenty years old. Having been overseas for so many years, he had indeed achieved enough to arrange for someone to clandestinely protect Shi Nuan within the country.
Thus, he no longer inquired into matters concerning Shi Nuan.
It wasn’t until later, when Yan Ke casually said upon returning home: "A Yu is probably interested in that girl called Shi Nuan!"
Only then did he have a sudden realization, understanding why Song Yansheng had stopped him from continuing to protect Shi Nuan!
At twenty-one, when Song Yansheng returned home, the responsibility of protecting Shi Nuan no longer concerned him.
At that time, the person who worried him more was Yan Ke, who had been responsible for protecting Song Yansheng abroad all those years...
Yet even so, he was still distinctly and deeply aware of Song Yansheng’s feelings for Shi Nuan.
Gone for four years and upon returning, many things had drastically changed, but what surprised him was that Song Yansheng had already married Shi Nuan.
He never asked Song Yansheng how he managed it, but he was glad for him marrying the woman he had long cared about.
Yet Shi Nuan was no longer the warm and radiant little girl from his photos; after experiencing so many things, she had become someone with a colder heart.
Song Yansheng wanted to give Shi Nuan warmth, exceedingly so, and he knew this, very much knew it.
But how to provide it, even Song Yansheng had no clue.
Thinking this way, he considered that wanting to destroy the Song Family and rebuild the Shi Family through Yu Dou’s hands, to deliver a stronger Shi Family to Shi Nuan, was likely one of the things he wanted to do for her.
Since the moment Song Yansheng returned home eight years ago, he never intended to take the Song Family, including the Shi Family, either!
The only thing he truly wanted, was a single Shi Nuan!
Only a single Shi Nuan!
...
That night, Song Yansheng and Shi Nuan slept together. Initially, both slept soundly, but soon, Song Yansheng became restless.
The last time he got what he wished for with Shi Nuan, although it created a slight distance between them, he indeed found it unforgettable.
Because Shi Nuan’s leg was injured and he feared startling her again, he had not touched her these past few days.
He tried raising his hand to hold Shi Nuan, feeling her body tense for a moment, but she did not resist.
Shi Nuan had her back to him, as he started kissing her from the ear, circle after circle, tirelessly.
Shi Nuan’s body trembled slightly, enduring her breathing and soft moans, such a Shi Nuan amused him.
He turned Shi Nuan around to face him, gazing into her eyes in the darkness, lowering his head to touch her nose with his.
He asked her, "Nuannuan, do you believe in fate?"
Shi Nuan’s eyes shimmered slightly, and she softly replied, "Mm."
She believed, yet felt it was something not quite related to her.
Song Yansheng clasped her fingers tightly, a smile playing on his handsome face, he said, "I believe...I feel that between you and me, it’s fate, a fate that’s lasted many years, many years!"
Shi Nuan was stunned for a moment, not yet reacting, when Song Yansheng’s kiss pressed down...
