"I'm married, and I have a child," Lin Jingyue stated truthfully, her agitated emotions now calming down considerably.

Her deceased husband's face was right in front of her, yet she dared not look at him. A strange feeling stirred within her; she felt as if she were cheating on him, but could such a coincidence really happen?

Zhao Weiguo grinned, showing off his bright white teeth, and didn't back down. Instead, he said, "But when you're with someone, isn't it because you value that person? Your previous marriage was because your ex-husband treated you badly, which is why you got divorced, wasn't it?"

If he disliked this person simply because they were divorced and had children, then his affection was far too superficial. He wasn't attracted to them at first sight; rather, the moment he met them, he knew they were meant to be.

Lin Jingyue was conflicted. She didn't know whether she should agree or not. She couldn't bring herself to refuse him, but she also couldn't just agree immediately. Back then, if he hadn't protected her in that car accident, she might have died too.

Even though she's already dead, she can't possibly find someone with the exact same face, right? If her dead husband saw it, wouldn't he feel so disgusted that he'd die again?

"I'm in my second marriage, and you're in your first. I don't think you need to jump into this fire pit. Besides, marriage isn't just about whether two people are willing. You have your family, and you have to consider their feelings." Helpless, she could only run away.

"They won't have any objections, don't worry, I'll handle those things. I just hope you can give me a chance, a chance to pursue you."

Perhaps after this departure, we'll never have the chance to meet again. But if things go smoothly this time, he can come here when he visits his family.

Zhao Weiguo is a very stubborn person. Once he has decided on something or someone, he will never give up easily.

Lin Jingyue couldn't describe her feelings at that moment, so she could only remain silent, suppressing the memories that had suddenly erupted in her heart. It seemed that this would lessen her guilt towards her deceased husband.

How awful! She loved him so deeply back then, and now that he's dead, she still has to remain chaste for him in spirit. Is there something wrong with her?

But using a stunt double really doesn't seem to work.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhao Weiguo was a little frustrated, but he still felt that he had to fight for himself, otherwise he would live with regret for the rest of his life.

“If I stay with you, we can live on our own from now on, and we won’t have to go back to our hometown. You can continue working here, and if you don’t want to work, my allowance can support you and the baby. When I get promoted, I can also apply for you to join me in my military post. If you don’t want to join me in my military post, I can come here to visit you anytime.”

“You don’t need to worry about those people back home. I’ll handle it myself. You don’t need to worry about any of that. My parents are taken care of by my brothers. I just need to provide the money. I can also find the three essentials for the wedding. Whatever you want, I will do my best to satisfy you. To be honest, the moment I saw you, I knew that you were the one for me.”

By the end, the young man's face was flushed, and his ears were practically bleeding. He was afraid that if he didn't speak up, the other person wouldn't sense his sincerity. He was nervous while speaking, and even more nervous afterward, waiting for the other person's response.

Lin Jingyue pursed her lips and finally asked a question that concerned her, "Even if you don't have your own children in the future, is that okay?"

To be honest, she was a little tempted. Who wouldn't want a man who would dote on them? But she wanted to put everything out in the open, rather than regret it later.

Zhao Weiguo was visibly taken aback for a moment, but his eyes quickly hardened. "It's alright. What I care about most is you as a person, not the child that doesn't even exist yet. Besides, don't you already have a child? You can treat him as mine!"

"At worst, I'll get a tubal ligation later and say it's my problem."

She even thought of that? She really underestimated this seemingly simple and honest rough man.

She won't have any more children, not because she doesn't want to, but because she's a mission taker. Mission takers don't have their own children, also to prevent them from returning to the original plane of existence after the mission ends, missing their children. That would cause a plane-wide crisis.

However, the official explanation given to the public was that she suffered severe bleeding during childbirth, which damaged her reproductive system and rendered her unable to have children.

"Let me think about it." Lin Jingyue touched her hair, her mind a little confused.

She might not find the right person in this world, nor will she necessarily get married. But now, an ideal man is standing in front of her, even though he has the face of her deceased husband, the conditions he offers are indeed tempting.

Should I agree or not?

She looked at the cloudless sky outside and thought to herself, "You bastard, if you don't agree, it'll rain right now. If it doesn't rain, I'll take that as a yes."

After waiting for a while, the weather outside was still fine, but the inside was already lively.

I'll take that as a yes.

Lin Jingyue turned her head, cleared her throat, and said, "I admit I am indeed attracted to your conditions, but I don't have strong feelings for you as a person for the time being. If you have time, perhaps we can try to get to know each other. If not, then let's just pretend nothing happened."

A balance of advance and retreat is excellent!

Zhao Weiguo's eyes lit up instantly, and he blinked his dark eyes, looking like a big dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy.

"I have three days of vacation left. We can try to get to know each other during these days, and then we can correspond by letter. If you feel it's right and the time is right, I'll immediately file for marriage!"

"Okay. But I have one last question for you."

"you say."

"Why aren't you married yet?" A 25-year-old single man is considered quite old for marriage these days. Is there some hidden reason why he's still unmarried at this age?

Speaking of this, he scratched his head shyly, "I hadn't met the right person before. Although I had been on blind dates, I just didn't feel anything. Until I met you, I felt that you were the one for me."

He didn't want to marry someone he didn't love, no matter how good that person's circumstances were. He'd been living a carefree life on his own, so why make himself unhappy?

Lin Jingyue lowered her head, concealing the complex expression in her eyes, and looked up to leave only one sentence: "I just hope you won't regret it later."

Not everyone around you is kind; malice can turn a kind person into a demon.

Zhao Weiguo knew what she cared about, so he straightened his expression and said, "Time will tell!"

Yes, time will tell!
