Chapter 39: I'll Definitely Unload You!

At that time, she didn't dare to sleep alone at night, and whenever night fell, she sneaked into his room early with a pillow, got into his quilt, and waited for him to return from training.

Sometimes, when he came back late, she was alone in the quilt shivering, and she never dared to sleep. But most of the time, Lei Jiuchen would let him go back to rest as soon as possible, after all, he also knew that Miss was waiting for him to go back.

At that time, his bedside table was always full of all kinds of storybooks, he read, she listened, he leaned against the bedside mat, she curled up in his arms, and in a few moments the little man dozed off. And he always took the trouble to pull the quilt for her, stretched out an arm to wrap her in his arms, and gently patted her back to make her sleep more peacefully.

I don't know how many days and nights went through like this, day after day, year after year, and I thought it would continue indefinitely, until that day, when he discovered his secret, a secret that he was ashamed to open up, and this cycle of days and nights was unilaterally and decisively terminated by him. Even though she was crying and complaining at the door with a pillow, he still ignored it, and ruthlessly put a lock on the door to isolate himself from her.

Since then, he has kept telling himself that it's time to end, that everything should be over...... The self-suggestion and suppression again and again made him naively think that he might be able to deal with it calmly, but a decision from his grandfather instantly pulled him back to reality.

The mixed feelings of that moment suddenly made him realize that it was impossible for him to live up to the rules he had set, and it was impossible for him to cut off the connection between himself and her, as if from the moment he met him in the basement, from the moment she bandaged him, from the moment he blocked the dragon's head and crutches for her...... He and she had long been bound together.

Now, the image that had been replayed countless times in his mind and in his dreams had finally replayed it—she was lying beside him, sleeping peacefully.

But why is my heart so bitter? Mu Yan clenched the nightgown on his chest.

The scene in front of him is long different from the past, the moment he agrees to his grandfather's request, a galaxy has been drawn between him and her, and the relationship between the two can only go to one extreme - tormenting each other.

Mu Yan raised his eyes and caught a glimpse of the jewelry box that had fallen on the carpet. He bent down to pick it up, opened it, and the brilliant starlight shot out—it was a diamond ring designed in the shape of a crown, inlaid with priceless star gems, and under the moonlight, it became more and more dazzling, as if the stars had fallen to the mortal world.

Mu Yan took out the ring and tossed it around his fingertips for a moment. He turned his head slightly, looked at Mu Yueli, who was sleeping, and for a while, as if he had made a big decision, he stretched out his hand, slowly groped her left hand in the quilt, and then carefully put the ring on her ring finger.

"Will you marry me? Monthly? Mu Yan looked at the ring on her hand and said to herself.

Perhaps, he will never hear the answer he wants in his life.

Mu Yan hooked the corners of her lips bitterly, put her arms back into the quilt, and carefully tucked the corners of the quilt for her. When he got up to leave, his hand unconsciously reached over and wanted to touch her hair, but when he was about to touch her hair, his hand suddenly stopped in mid-air, and finally, he retracted it.
