Chapter 71.3 — This is Love
"Yanyi, wake up. As long as you wake up, I will listen to you no matter what…"
"Yanyi, are you still not willing to wake up? As long as you are willing to wake up, even if you don't want to see me anymore, I will be willing to do so…"
Time after time, day after day, and year after year, she heard similar words numerous times for a span of three whole years. When it first happened, she was confused then slowly she was moved. In the end, she even started to believe it was a little frightening that she heard his voice for an entire three years!
How come she believed it was frightening? Because she really couldn't imagine a person who loved another, just under what profound situation would they do something like that? That they would be willing to lose themselves.
Su Yanyi wasn't able to comprehend this type of feeling. Therefore, she felt it was terrifying. It was terrifying for a person to love another and in the process, lose themselves. But Qi Jiran was willing to do so for her. This had genuinely moved her. It led her cold and detached heart to return back to the warmness a normal person should have.
Su Yanyi really wanted to say to Qi Jiran that he didn't need to change anything of her or listen to her. They are different people so they should have different opinions and thoughts. It is not necessary for one person to definitely listen to another!
But, Su Yanyi was unable to say this because she knew that the only reason she was willing to live together with this man was due to the past life that she trusted him but also due to this man's original personality which led her to be satisfied. Whether it's that he tolerated her or complied with her but in short, this man listened to her words and she felt really relaxed when she spends her time with him. Otherwise, even with the past life's cause and effect, she would only protect this man in secret and let him obtain power but not necessarily live with him.
Therefore, when she just rebirthed, she declared they will 'temporarily not divorce' and not 'won't divorce.' If it weren't for the time spent together that made her felt comfortable with this man, she might've chosen to divorce still.
Su Yanyi was never someone who would force herself. There were many ways to repay back a favor. She didn't need to insist on devoting her life to him. Therefore, it could be exclaimed that more or less, she liked this man.
But right now, she was willing to interact with this man and enjoyed his embraces as well as the intimate kisses. She even started to like this man's odor. She believed that this might be the so-called love. No, she should exclaim this in definite confidence that this is love!
"Jiran…" Su Yanyi imitated Qi Jiran and said his name by his ears. Then, she watched as the tips of Qi Jiran's eyes slowly turned red. This man was bashful again.
"Hm?" Qi Jiran stepped back a bit and looked at Su Yanyi in question as though to ask what happened.
The corner of Su Yanyi's mouth held a soft smile. Each word was declared with extreme seriousness: "In the future, let's spend our days together."
In the past, Su Yanyi also exclaimed that she wanted to try being together and even wanted to attempt to be a good wife. But the promise during that time and the meaning of the sentence right now was extremely different. At that time, it was the promise towards responsibility for her life. But right now, it was based on her acknowledgment of her feelings.
It could be considered that in the past if Su Yanyi wanted to just pa.s.s by each day then right now, the extended meaning of the words were for the two of them to lovingly live each day with one another.
Qi Jiran's eyes were filled with warmness. Although he wasn't sure if the hidden meaning in Su Yanyi's words was love towards him, yet he loved these words of living together. He and Yanyi will be together and spend the days together. Such simple words but it were the words that moved him the most.
