Lu Wan stared at Shen Yan without blinking, not missing any expression on his face. This was her true thought. Since she had decided to be with him, she would not hide it from him. A relationship requires joint efforts from both husband and wife, so she spoke out about it openly. Even if she was rejected or accused of dreaming, she had already prepared herself mentally.
Hearing these words, which would be considered as treasonous in today's world, Shen Yan's eyes widened, his mouth slightly opened, and he was very shocked.
According to the normal reaction of a man, hearing this, he would angrily throw his sleeves and leave, and then spread rumors that Lu Wan was disrespectful to her husband, jealous, and violated the "Seven Reasons for Divorce". However, Shen Yan did not do that. He just felt that he was greatly shocked.
He thought that all women were the same. No matter how much they cared about the existence of concubines and illegitimate children, they would appear to be tolerant and generous as ladies from noble families. But in reality, they would harm each other behind their backs. This made him sick. It was so hypocritical! But come to think of it, isn't it precisely because of her uniqueness that he noticed her?
口口五六③⑦四三六七五
Seeing that Chen Yan didn't speak, Lu Wan's expression gradually froze. She lowered her head, clenched her hands into fists subconsciously, and uttered an indifferent voice from her small mouth: "I expected that you would not want to...we..." Hadn't I already prepared myself mentally? But why does my heart still hurt so much at this moment?
He thought he would be different, but in the end...it was over. She covered her chest, turned around and faced the door. Just as she was about to utter the last six words "The bridge is the bridge, the road is the road" and leave immediately, she heard Shen Yan behind her suddenly say something that made Lu Wan stunned: "When did I say I don't agree?"
"Then what you just did..." Lu Wan scratched his hair, did he understand it wrongly? But he didn't say anything just now, so she thought he disagreed. However, hearing the tone of his question just now, she found it a little unbelievable, "Do you agree?" She saw him nod, looking up and down at Shen Yan, still feeling unbelievable. You have to know that he is not the son of a commoner family. Even a commoner family may have one or two concubines. How could he, a child of a prominent family, agree to it so easily? Did he really not tease her? Because he was worried, Lu Wan repeated what he said before: "Are you sure? No matter how deep the relationship between us is, once you have another woman, I will leave without hesitation. Will you reconsider it?"
"Pfft..." Chen Yan found it a little funny as he watched Lu Wan confirming again and again, "Do you still hope that I will refuse to be with you?" He felt funny and a little distressed at the same time. He knew why she was like this, it was because of the insecurity deep inside her. Ever since she broke up with Xiao Yu'an, she no longer fully believed in the relationship between men and women. What's more, the gap between their status was so huge that if she encountered problems and suffered losses, no one would support her. This also meant that after marrying him, she would have nothing but him. If he feels in the future that his wife can no longer provide him with any help, he can divorce her and marry another one without any burden. How can she feel at ease with this?
"No..." Lu Wan blushed and shook her hands, not knowing how to explain.
"Hey... I know you don't mean that." Shen Yan stood up from the chair and walked to Lu Wan, reaching out to hug him, but his tone was more serious than ever before, "I understand what you are thinking, there is no need for you to explain."
Just when she was shocked that he knew everything she was thinking, she heard him continue, "Your idea is also my idea, a couple for life! I was born in the capital, and I'm used to the intrigues and conflicts of interest between people. I'm really tired of these! I want to have a pure and sincere relationship, without exploitation and hypocrisy, only that piece of true heart, so I haven't married yet. I want to marry a wife who I love and who also loves me, which is really beautiful. As for concubines, haha, because of them, how many wives of families are no longer pure, and the harem is not at peace. Naturally, I don't want them. And how can a true relationship allow another woman to interfere. Don't worry about your identity and background. I have no desire for power. What's wrong with marrying a wife with a high family background?" It must be said that Shen Yan's words were very comprehensive, and almost dispelled all of Lu Wan's doubts.
Lu Wan looked up and saw the sincerity in his eyes that could not be ignored. She couldn't help but choose to believe it. Forget it, just let things take their course when it comes to love. Since she likes him and he likes her, why think so much? It's nothing but adding trouble to yourself. Thinking of this, she suddenly hugged Shen Yan back.
Shen Yan was very excited. Did she believe him? Although she was the one who proposed to be with him, she rarely took the initiative because of her inner insecurity. Now this behavior naturally made him feel flattered.
After their relationship was officially established, they became closer. On this day, Shen Yan, who had been thinking about it for a while, planned to take Lu Wan home to meet his parents, and then marry her and stay with her for the rest of her life!

On the carriage to the capital, it was impossible for Lu Wan not to be nervous. After all, this was her first time to meet people like her parents-in-law. But she could still remain calm. There was no other way. She had experienced many ups and downs in her past and present lives. How could this incident make her lose her composure? No matter how bad things get, isn't there Chen Yan by my side? She didn't choose a husband to let him watch her being bullied. Of course she wouldn't make things difficult for him, because she was his biological mother, and filial piety was more important than anything else. In fact, she was quite surprised when Chen Yan told her that he wanted to take her home. She didn't expect him to do it so quickly. But when he said "I can't wait to have you become my wife", she was really moved, so there was the scene of them riding home in a carriage together.
