Yan Yiming seemed to not understand Jiang Yi's meaning for a moment. His delicate face was rarely stunned. He raised his head to meet Jiang Yi's gaze, and his smile froze on his lips.
"……What?"
Jiang Yi held Yan Yiming's shoulders tightly to prevent her from escaping, and repeated, "I said I will marry you."
Time stood still for a moment. Suddenly, Yan Yiming shook off Jiang Yi's hand. His smile disappeared in an instant and he shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Jiang Yi grabbed her wrist, his expression more serious than ever before, "I'm not talking nonsense."
"I'm your sister!"
"We are not related by blood!"
Jiang Yi spoke each word clearly. When he said this, he felt an unprecedented sense of relief. Perhaps because Yan Yiming's expression was too shocked, Jiang Yi was a little worried about scaring her, so his voice softened a little, "We are not related by blood, so I can marry you and you can marry me."
Yan Yiming's eyebrows were knitted together, and the hand held by Jiang Yi was shaking uncontrollably. Jiang Yi's voice was disordered, "A Ming, what's wrong with you?"
Yan Yiming tried to pull his hand away again, but Jiang Yi held it tightly, so he could only glare at him and gesture to the stone bench not far away, "Help me over there, I feel uncomfortable in my chest."
Jiang Yi's heart trembled slightly, and he hurriedly helped her move over.
Yan Yiming covered his chest and took a deep breath for a while. Finally, he took his hand back while Jiang Yi was nervous. Seeing the urgency on Jiang Yi's face, he said hurriedly, "Sit still. I won't leave."
Jiang Yi sat back down obediently.
"Shaojun," Yan Yiming called him for a long time before speaking, "Everyone thinks I can't get married, laughs at me and feels sorry for me, but I never feel sorry for myself, so Shaojun, you don't have to say such things for me. Although we are not related by blood, I have always regarded you as my own brother."
Jiang Yi smiled, and in the dark night, his smile was somewhat bitter and cold, "But, I never thought of you as a sister."
Yan Yiming's hands, which were twisting the handkerchief, trembled slightly. He looked up at him without saying a word.
"I said I wanted to marry you, not because I felt sorry for you, but because I really wanted to marry you," Jiang Yi answered frankly, "I never thought of you as a sister. When I understood what love was, I thought of you and no one else."
Yan Yiming's eyes finally changed. She looked at him in disbelief and said word by word, "You are really crazy."
"A Ming," Jiang Yi called her name, "You always asked me why I called you that before, and now I can finally answer you, because I like it, because I want to be close to you..."
"Jiang Yi!" Yan Yiming couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted his nonsense, "I said I'm your sister. Even if we're not related by blood, you've already joined the clan. Your last name is Jiang!"
Jiang Yi chuckled and said jokingly, "If I can marry you, I don't have to have the last name Jiang."
"You, you..." Yan Yiming seemed to be extremely angry, and didn't know what to say for a moment. Jiang Yi suppressed his smile, "A Ming, you told me a few days ago that you only married for the master and the lady, so no matter who you marry, it makes no difference to you. If it makes no difference, why are you refusing so much?"
"But I never thought that this person could be my brother."
"I said I'm not your brother," Jiang Yi said unhappily, "Mr. Jiang has never met you and you never refused. I've known you for so long, am I not better than him?"
Yan Yiming glared at him angrily, "You know very well that's not what I meant."
"Then what do you mean?" Jiang Yi looked at her seriously and asked, "A Ming, I am really sad when you say that."
Yan Yiming almost laughed out of anger when he saw him pretending to be hurt. How dare you feel wronged?
Seeing that she was silent, Jiang Yi knew that she must be angry. He paused for a moment before whispering, "It was still snowing heavily when I first came to the Jiang Mansion. The old lady ordered me to wait outside. I didn't dare to disobey and could only wait. I didn't know when I lost consciousness, but when I woke up again, I was already sick."
At this point, Jiang Yi recalled the scene when he first met Yan Yiming. "I thought I would die on that snowy night, but you saved me. Later, I heard from the master that it was because of you that he took me away from the old lady that day."
I thought the Jiang Mansion was cold and heartless, but after meeting you, I realized how lucky I am and how grateful I am to Master Jiang Wu for sending me here.
So it's too late to say anything now.
"No one will marry you, so I will marry you. No one wants you, so I want you, Ming. No one in this world will care about you more than I do."
"I know……"
Yan Yiming took a deep breath and said, "I know, and I believe it, but Shaojun, I can marry anyone except you."
Jiang Yi stood up suddenly, extremely angry but also extremely sad, "Why!"
"Because I can't bear to leave you, because you are very important to me."
Jiang Yi was stunned for a moment. Yan Yiming looked away, looked at the darkness and spoke slowly, "My mother lied to the Jiang family that I was fine, but I know that it is a miracle that I can live to this day with this congenital disease. I may only have a year or even only half a year left. With a body like this, I shouldn't marry and bring bad luck to others. Instead, I should stay here quietly until I die. Don't say anything and wait for me to finish."
"The reason why I agreed to marry Mr. Jiang is because I don't care. I don't care whether he will be sad or upset after I die. But you are different. I have watched you grow up, and I have never doubted that one day you will stand out and become a superior person. You will have the best future and marry the best wife, instead of being obsessed with wanting to be entangled with a woman who will not live long!"
"But I don't care," Jiang Yi looked at her and said softly.
He was angry at her for not understanding, but now he understood that it was not that she didn't understand, but that she understood too well.
"I don't care that you're not in good health. I will do my best to find the best doctor to cure you, Ming. If it's because of other reasons, I might give up, but if it's because of me, I will never let go."
After saying that, Jiang Yi stood up.
Yan Yiming immediately grabbed him and asked him urgently, "Where are you going?"
Lan Xiu couldn't wait and came over again, holding Yan Yiming's cloak in her hand.
"Go see the master and the lady." Jiang Yi took the cloak from Lan Xiu's hand, carefully put it on Yan Yiming's shoulders and tied it, "Ask the master and the lady to make the decision."
"They will never agree to that."
Jiang Yi shook his head, his tone firm and gentle, "They will, because they are just like me, they just want someone to treat you well, Lan Xiu, take good care of the lady."
"Yes..." Lan Xiu responded timidly, watching Jiang Yi walk away, and turned back to ask Yan Yiming in a low voice, "Miss, what should we do now?"
Yan Yiming stood up and gathered the cloak on his shoulders. "I don't know either. I have a headache..."
"Do you want to go after the young master?"
"Why are you chasing him? Stop making trouble. It's late at night. Go back to your room and sleep."
Have a good sleep, because tomorrow she has to cooperate well in a play, Yan Yiming sighed, life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills, she will consider becoming an actor after she goes back, she is really talented.
