Chapter 141: Confession
Originally, Jiang Liuli didn't plan to get married, she was ready to leave here in two days and go to Wu Yueguo to find her stepmother, but now she was rejected by him, and she was a little unwilling in her heart, the more she didn't want to marry her, the more she wanted to marry him.
She knew that Lan Tingxuan had her in her heart, and Lan's mother also knew this, so she would bring up the matter of getting married, but she didn't understand why she suddenly refused to marry, so she wanted to find out.
"Lan Tingxuan, I have nothing to do with you, so I don't need you to take care of my affairs." She shook off his hand with all her might, and turned to look at the calm river.
Seeing her like this, Lan Tingxuan's eyes showed a painful look, he also wanted to marry her, but he felt that he was not worthy, such a beautiful woman as her should be loved by better people.
"Ruri, I'm sorry." He lowered his head and closed his eyes in pain, only to realize at this moment that his love for her had reached the point where he could not extricate himself, and he was reluctant to let her be wronged, reluctant to be hurt, and reluctant to let her wronged himself.
"Let's go, I want to be alone for a while." She said coldly, completely ignoring his apology.
"Ruri, can you stay away from the river?" Seeing her standing by the river, he could fall into the river with just one step, and he was terrified to see her.
"Do you still care about my life or death?" Jiang Liuli smiled mockingly, she said this completely to stimulate him.
"Of course I care, I care all about you, but ...... I'm not qualified to care. The courage he had finally mustered up was once again discouraged, and he did not dare to let her see his dirtiest side, for he was afraid that she would despise him, which would be more uncomfortable for him than rejecting him.
"It's not up to you to decide whether you're qualified or not." She turned her head to look at him, and it only took more effort to know what was really going on in his heart.
Lan Tingxuan looked at her with a serious face, and a voice in his heart was telling him that if he said it, it would rain and the sky would be clear.
"I ...... I like you, but I like another girl at the same time, how can I be qualified to care about you and love you when I'm so greedy? He closed his eyes and smiled bitterly, and finally said what was in his heart, at this moment, he felt a lot more relaxed, it turned out that it was not so difficult to say what was in his heart, but waiting for her trial made him more tormented.
Jiang Liuli was stunned when he heard his words, what did he mean by this? Like her and like another person at the same time? Is that person the way he was when he was ugly? If that's the case, then he really likes her and will be tempted by her no matter what she looks like.
Looking at his painful face, he suddenly regretted that he didn't make things clear earlier, it seems that he has been living in pain all this time, otherwise he would not choose to escape.
"Fool, I can not only paint myself ugly and accompany you to the hospital, but also be disguised as something else to wander the rivers and lakes alone." She looked at him distressedly, but she didn't expect that her unintentional action would make him suffer in his heart.
Lan Tingxuan raised his head and looked at her in surprise, he was still waiting for her to pronounce his death sentence, but he never thought that she would say such a thing.
"You...... What do you mean......" He stared at her with wide eyes, was his guess correct? Is she the same person as the girl?
"You and I worked together on a disfiguring drug, have you forgotten that?" Seeing that he was frightened by herself, she smiled helplessly.
At this moment, Lan Tingxuan remembered the disguise medicine she had developed, if the girl at that time was Jiang Liuli in front of her, then she would have become like that after taking the disguise medicine at that time?
"Girl, it's really you." After figuring it all out, he was still a little incredulous.
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you the truth." She smiled apologetically, if things had been clarified earlier, so many things would not have happened.
Lan Tingxuan still looked at her stunned, as if he hadn't recovered from the shock, it seemed that this blow was a bit big for him.
He looked at it for a long time, and finally slowly stretched out his hand, wanting to touch her face, but he timidly stopped in front of her eyes, not daring to take another step.
Seeing him so cautious, Jiang Liuli reluctantly sent his face to his palm, and the feeling of skin to skin made him come back to his senses, and gently stroked her face, and then gently hugged her into his arms as if he had mustered all his courage.
Jiang Liuli meekly stuck to his chest, listening to his rapidly beating heartbeat, feeling sweet in her heart, and a sense of happiness slowly pouring out, such a warm and sweet feeling made her want to go on like this forever.
Originally, Lan Tingxuan's body was a little stiff when he hugged her, but when he felt her meekness, he slowly relaxed and hugged her tightly, feeling satisfied and happy like hugging the whole world.
"Ruri, I want to marry you, is that okay?" I don't know how long it took, Lan Tingxuan finally mustered up the courage to say what he wanted to say the most, at this moment, he had no scruples, even if he was rejected by her in the end, he had no regrets in this life.
"Didn't you just refuse?" Jiang Liuli said teasingly, his resolute look just now made her half angry.
"Liuli, you are so beautiful, so good that I am ashamed of myself, even now, I feel that I am not worthy of you." He hugged her tightly, and she couldn't see the loss and lack of confidence in his eyes.
"But I want to fight for it, or I'll regret it for the rest of my life." He waited anxiously for her answer, and even if he was rejected, he would not complain.
Jiang Liuli listened to his words, and suddenly thought of herself, she hadn't asked him anything, if she knew her true identity, would she be afraid of her?
She pushed him away, left his embrace, and looked at him seriously, she really couldn't say who she was.
"Lan Tingxuan, if I fall into the river at the same time as your mother, who will you save first?" She asked the cliché question again, wondering how he would answer.
Lan Tingxuan thought about it for a long time, but still did not have a satisfactory answer, for him, his mother and her are the most important people in his life, and saving either one is not the most satisfactory answer.
"I think I'll save my mother first, and then I'll die with you." After thinking about it for a long time, he said the answer uncertainly, with his ability, he could only save one person, and the remaining one person had no strength to save it, so he could only die with her.
Jiang Liuli didn't expect him to give such an answer, and was stunned for a moment, and when he reacted, his heart was actually warm, and he began to slowly loosen up with a hint of defensiveness.
Although his answer is not the most perfect, she knows that this is the answer she wants most, what she wants is not glory and wealth, not people who respect her and love her, what she wants is someone who can let go of everything and dare to accompany her to Huangquan, only such a person will love her and love her for a lifetime and never change her heart.
"I'm sorry, that's the only answer I can think of." Lan Tingxuan saw that she hadn't spoken for a long time, thinking that she was dissatisfied, and was immediately discouraged.
"Very good, I like the answer." She looked at him with a smile, this smile was a smile from the heart, and such a smile instantly fascinated him.
"Really? Are you willing to marry me? Lan Tingxuan asked excitedly.
Jiang Liuli didn't answer him, but lowered his head, stretched out his hand to grab his hand, and then interlocked his fingers.
Lan Tingxuan saw her move, and knew her answer, and held her back excitedly, holding her hand tightly, not planning to let go again, never letting go for the rest of his life.
Seeing this, Jiang Liuli smiled gently, then leaned his head on his shoulder, looking at the dark river in front of him, although he couldn't see any scenery, he felt that even if it was dark, he could feel the light in front of him.
The two stayed by the river for a long time, and then they went home hand in hand, and before they reached the door, they saw Lan Mu waiting anxiously at the door with a candle.
Seeing this, Jiang Liuli suddenly felt guilty, and just now she only cared about coming out to vent her emotions, completely forgetting how anxious Mother Lan would be.
Lan Mu felt someone approaching in the dark, but she wasn't sure if it was Jiang Liuli, and when they approached, she breathed a sigh of relief.
But soon, she noticed that the two of them were unusual, especially the hands of the two of them holding each other tightly, and seeing the smiles on their faces, she suddenly realized that her heart was even more excited.
"Ting Xuan, when do you plan to get married?" Lan Mu asked excitedly, she hoped that the two would get married as soon as possible.
Lan Tingxuan turned his head to look at Jiang Liuli, and seeing that she had no objection, his heart was sweet and excited, was he finally going to marry his beloved woman home?
"It's all up to my mother." He didn't know when it would be an auspicious day, so he could only leave the matter to Lan Mu, he didn't have so much time to take care of these things.
"Okay, then I'll get ready." Lan's mother was very satisfied with this answer, which showed that they were ready to get married.
"Hmm." Lan Tingxuan nodded without an opinion, and then turned his head to look at Jiang Liuli, not knowing if she had any other thoughts about marriage.
"Auntie, I don't have a family, so I may need your help in the marriage." Jiang Liuli thought for a while and said, although she has a stepmother, but now her whereabouts are unknown, and she can't come to her wedding at all.
As for Gong Changqing, although he really wanted to invite him over, but after thinking about it, forget it, the thief in Yishui Pavilion has not been caught yet, she can't take this risk, and her wedding can't be ruined by anyone, so she can only grieve Gong Changqing, and then write a letter to him after getting married.
"Liuli, in the future, Tingxuan and I will be your family, and in the future, there will be your children, and our small family will gradually become a big family." Lan's mother grabbed her other hand pityingly, she could understand the loneliness and regret of not having relatives by her side.
"Hmm." Jiang Liuli nodded with a smile, from now on, she will also have a family, and she is no longer alone.
Lan Tingxuan thought that she had lived alone all these years, and she was distressed, no matter how strong a person was, she also needed companionship, and at this moment she finally knew why she was always so indifferent.
However, from now on, he will let her no longer have indifference and loneliness, only happiness and happiness, although he is incompetent, he can make her live a worry-free life, let her live the life she wants, and do her best to make her the happiest woman in the world.
