Chapter 584 - 586: At This Moment, He Belongs to Her
Her Nan Mo had grown up, no longer the naive young boy he used to be. In his arms, she felt so small and fragile, as if he were a tree, and she, a little blade of grass nestled beneath it.Since childhood, he had always been the tree that shielded her from the wind and rain.
She thought she could rely on him forever, look up to him, and be protected by him.
However, one day, her tree was taken away; she was left to grow up alone, facing the storms by herself. Later, she truly became like a little blade of grass, resilient against the winds and rains.
Whenever she felt like she couldn’t hold on, just thinking of him would fill her dark world with sunshine.
She believed that when she was finally able to reach him, true happiness would follow.
But when she did find him, he had overnight become another person—a married man who could only call her "sister-in-law" in front of others...
How cruel and ridiculous.
Yet all she could do was accept it.
Despite knowing how hard you’ve been searching, not daring to admit it; knowing how desperate you are, wishing to take your despair on herself, yet still, unable to tell you the truth.
Nan Mo... I’m sorry. I so badly want to tell you the truth. But seeing you already have someone you adore by your side, seeing your hopes and affection for Qiqi, how can I muster the courage to tell you that this imperfect me is the Qiqi you’re looking for?
I’m afraid, I’m timid, because there are so many other factors too.
Life has so many frustrations. It wasn’t until I grew up that I understood you can’t achieve everything just with absolute confidence and perseverance.
There are too many uncontrollable factors in life. In the vast cosmos, sometimes we are as small as specks of dust.
"Qiqi... I’m sorry... I’m sorry..." Liang Shaochen murmured in hoarse whispers by her ear. He spoke, slowly releasing her. Under the moonlight, his eyes were bloodshot and filled with tears.
Her face was also wet with tears, shining under the light.
He reached out, his trembling fingertips cradling her face.
"Qiqi, it’s my fault. It’s because I didn’t give you enough faith and courage, because I didn’t protect you well and lost you. It’s because I was so foolish, knowing you were right by my side, yet still searching the world like a madman...
I’m sorry, Qiqi..."
Xia Xiaonuan couldn’t control her tears. She just shook her head, bewildered, "No... it’s not... I..."
Before she could finish, he suddenly cupped her face and bent down, pressing a fierce kiss on her lips.
She was completely stunned.
His lips touched hers with a fervor and hunger, then it was unstoppable.
Their tears mixed together, and their breaths heated the air. He embraced her tightly, fervently kissing her as if he wanted to embed her into the depths of his soul.
Her heart was filled with excitement, confusion, panic, and helplessness. Instinctively, she tried to break away, but he gave her no chance to turn back, his soul anchored by some force, madly and drunkenly sucking on her lips. Her heart was pricked repeatedly, tingling with pain; yet an indescribable sense of happiness washed over her entire being.
Nan Mo... Her Nan Mo.
She didn’t know when he found out that she was Qiqi, but at long last, she could be sure of one thing: in this moment, he belonged to her.
