Chapter 480: You’re Finally Back (10)
"I’m sorry, it’s my fault."
There were no intense kisses, just light pecks, and with each kiss, Sheng Jianan would say "I’m sorry," each time lower than the last, without a trace of the Young Master Sheng’s arrogance, as if he were just a man constantly pleading.
The fortress that Su Anle had been building in her heart crumbled with Sheng Jianan’s repeated apologies.
Tears fell unknowingly, and Sheng Jianan kissed her again, the tears spreading between their lips, salty and bitter.
Su Anle finally no longer appeared calm as water. She began to struggle, her fists pounding against the man before her, but Sheng Jianan only held her tighter.
Su Anle didn’t know when she fell onto the bed. All she knew was that when Sheng Jianan held her naked body, buried his head in her neck, and whispered a word softly in her ear.
Three years... he had finally waited for her to return, three years... he could finally hold her in his arms again.
Holding her, he occasionally kissed her on the forehead, and every few seconds, pecked her on the lips.
He could feel that she loved him, even if she herself hadn’t realized it.
But none of that mattered; as long as he believed it, then reasons for her sudden departure, who she may have been with these past three years, the word "mother," and that child.
None of it mattered anymore. Now that she was back, she couldn’t leave. No one could take away the person Sheng Jianan had recognized, and even if she truly had a child with someone else, she couldn’t leave.
Sheng Jianan was very tired, but he didn’t dare sleep, for fear that if he slept and woke up, it would all be just a dream.
For three years, he had dreamt such dreams countless times, and waking up from them felt like a million tiny needles pricking his heart. The feeling was unbearable, and he didn’t want to go through it again.
After calming himself for a while, Sheng Jianan gently lifted the covers, got out of bed, dressed, and went out. He reached the staircase, turned back into the study, took a key from inside, locked the bedroom door, and then left with peace of mind.
He drank a large cup of coffee to stay awake, stood in the yard, took out his phone, found several numbers, and called them one by one.
After hanging up, he looked at the flowers blooming beautifully in the yard. The yellow crocus means "I’ll always wait for you," purple lavender signifies "waiting for love," dandelions are for "waiting for reunion," irises are "I’ll wait for you to come back," and pansies represent "missing and waiting."
He had filled the yard with all of these, and now, he had finally waited for her return.
Sheng Jianan couldn’t help but let the corners of his mouth lift again and again, his handsome face beaming, the arrogance between his brows reemerging, as if the once unparalleled Sheng Family Crown Prince had returned.

When Su Anle woke up, it was already nearly dark outside, and she had not been this wild in three years; now her whole body was aching.
