Chapter 674: You Are the First
Yan Sijue gazed into her eyes, and suddenly remembered the time when he gave her that cabinet full of jewelry, she also used that word, ’magnificent’.
If that’s considered ’magnificent’ then...
He gently shook his head, "No, I have never pursued another woman, you’re the first."
Mu Yiliang was startled.
"And you will be the last," he added with a smile.
Mu Yiliang felt that the answer was becoming clearer and clearer.
He once said he had a past relationship. The heroine in that story, was actually her, wasn’t it? She just forgot about it.
He knew her intentions, yet had no intention of hiding anything, and instead, continually confirmed her suspicions.
She almost couldn’t resist asking, she wanted to know since they once loved each other, why they later separated, why his feelings for her never faded, yet it took a year for him to appear before her.
Why did she forget him, forget such an important piece of their past?
The man’s dark eyes seemed bottomless, she knew all the answers could be found with him, but would he tell her?
Mu Yiliang suddenly smiled, "If in the end I still reject you, do you plan to stay single for life?"
Yan Sijue looked at her, his gaze filled with deep affection.
"Yes," he said softly, "But don’t feel pressured. If you are willing to accept me, it’s my good fortune. If not, that’s okay too."
Mu Yiliang was startled.
She suddenly realized, he wasn’t joking.
She remembered when they first met, the sadness and despair that seemed to perpetually shroud this man... Could it all be related to her?
Mu Yiliang suddenly dared not delve deeper.
She averted her gaze, avoiding his overly intense eyes.
"I should head back!" she coughed lightly, "I had a great time tonight, thank you."
He responded with a soft "mm" and draped his coat over her: "Let’s go, I’ll take you home."
"Xiaoze is still in the hospital..."
"I’ve already sent someone to take him home, so you won’t have to worry about running to the hospital," his voice was gentle, "The doctor is also on standby next door until Xiaoze recovers, don’t worry."
Mu Yiliang had no way to refuse, especially after... realizing this man could possibly be Xiaoze’s biological father.
No wonder when she mentioned Xiaoze, he wasn’t the slightest bit surprised.
...
The next day, Mu Yiliang prepared breakfast for her son and brought it to his room, only to find the little guy already awake, his injured leg propped on the edge of the bed, with a laptop on his lap, engrossed in something.
"Stop playing, eat your breakfast," she set the small table in front of him.
"Mommy, did you know they launched fountains over the river last night? It’s all over the internet now!" Xiaoze typed away rapidly, "A lot of people saw it and even took videos, it was really beautiful! Some suspect it was a surprise from the S City government to the citizens... haha, as if! Do the math and you’ll see how much a few minutes of fountains would cost! Don’t you think so, mommy?"
After speaking, he looked up at her with a bashful smile.
Mu Yiliang was speechless with shock!
This kid must have guessed already, yet still dared to tease her!
"I think maybe some wealthy person had too much money and decided to burn it for fun?" Mu Yiliang replied exasperatedly.
Now, whenever she thought about how this boy knew everything yet collaborated with Xiao Qi to deceive her, she couldn’t help but feel angry.
