Shu Ying nodded knowingly, but then quickly waved her hand and said, "It doesn't matter anyway, I never intended to divorce you from the beginning."

Her drowsiness was completely dispelled. Thinking of Xie Zhiyan, who had applied for her to join the army as soon as he learned of the Shu family's troubles, Shu Ying stared intently at his face.

“I already know about everything you’ve done for me. When I arrived at the army, someone told me that my application had been approved and that the leaders had even assigned me a separate compound. I know that you had already made arrangements for this beforehand.”

She originally thought that all men were big and burly, but she didn't expect that Xie Zhiyan could be so thoughtful.

Shu Ying looked down at the ends of her hair, her voice becoming even lower.

“I know who is good to me. The children are growing up, and I just want to live a peaceful life. The past is just a memory. We can't keep looking back. I know you are good to me, but I hope you can also take care of yourself.”

Her voice was very soft and gentle, like a feather brushing lightly past Xie Zhiyan's ear.

"If you can't even guarantee your own health, how can you protect me and the children? Our family has finally reunited."

Xie Zhiyan clenched his fists tightly. If his injuries hadn't still been healing, he would have rushed over and hugged Shu Ying.

Realizing that his idea was too abrupt, his deep gaze suddenly dimmed again.

"Oh, actually, I hate saying these mushy things the most. I'm glad you understand what I mean. Anyway, I don't like other people. Now that you're awake, there's even less chance I'll divorce you. Yueyue looks at your photos every day. Even if I changed her dad, she might not agree."

She has always respected her children's wishes, so even though she has been raising them alone all these years, she has never thought about remarrying.

Two people living together is like a pot and a spoon; they're bound to clash sometimes. If it were someone else, they might not necessarily treat their two children as their own.

Xie Zhiyan smiled; Shu Ying was unusually adorable now.

These words seemed to become more and more affected, and Shu Ying couldn't help but shiver. She didn't dare to look at Xie Zhiyan anymore, so she quickly pulled the quilt off and covered herself with it, and hurriedly closed her eyes.

"Time to sleep, time to sleep, I'm so sleepy."

She turned around again, her tone somewhat commanding: "You should go to sleep now. You still have many injuries, so don't think about anything right now."

Her voice carried a hint of arrogance and cuteness, which amused Xie Zhiyan.

His deep voice was exceptionally pleasant to listen to, and Shu Ying's ears couldn't help but turn red.

In both her past and present lives, apart from the first few days of her marriage, she had never shared a room with a man.

Although Xie Zhiyan was already her husband, they hadn't lived under the same roof for so long, and they felt quite awkward when they suddenly met again.

The two talked about everything late at night, and the distance between them narrowed considerably. Shu Ying felt a different kind of emotion in her heart.

But now that she was suddenly so intimate with Xie Zhiyan, her little heart was about to jump out of her chest, and her palms were sweating nervously when she said those mushy words.

Shu Ying muttered to herself, "We're already this nervous even though we haven't slept in the same bed yet. What will we do when Xie Zhiyan is discharged from the hospital and we'll be sleeping in the same room sooner or later?"

Thinking back to her wedding days, Shu Ying felt her cheeks burning. If an egg were cracked into her face now, it would probably be cooked to a crisp.

She could no longer hear anything from Xie Zhiyan's side. Shu Ying put her hands on her face, forcing herself to calm down.

With those distracting thoughts cleared from her mind, drowsiness quickly crept in. Perhaps it was because she hadn't had a proper rest in the past few days, because soon Shuying's even breathing could be heard.

Xie Zhiyan turned his head and stared at her almost in a daze.

Whenever he closes his eyes, Shu Ying's face appears in his mind. This has been the case for years, and he simply cannot control it.

"Xie Zhiyan, can you please stop being such a beast?"

Xie Zhiyan cursed under his breath and forced himself to close his eyes.

He was well aware that his feelings for Shu Ying were not only psychological but also physical.

This sudden reunion and the resulting panic made him want nothing more than to pull Shuying into his arms and kiss her passionately.

Only in this way can we further confirm that all of this is true.
