The two of them just lay in silence on the grassland, admiring the night view and listening to Chunchan's calls. It was so peaceful and beautiful.
Time passed, and it was unknown how much time had passed. When Yan Mo was about to fall asleep, Si Ze slowly spoke:
"Momo, come back to Mocheng with me!"
Yan Mo didn't react for a moment and was still on the verge of falling asleep.
It took her a while to realize what Si Ze had said, and without a second thought, she opened her mouth to answer him again with the same answer she had given in the store.
But the next moment, Si Ze seemed to have foreshadowed something, and just as Yan Mo was about to speak, he said lightly,
"You love me, I can feel it."
There was confidence in his tone, as if he was just stating a fact.
Yan Mo opened her mouth, wanting to deny it, but as she listened to the soothing sounds of the spring cicadas, looked at the magnificent night, and then looked at the man beside her who was not looking at her, she couldn't say anything against her will at this moment.
For a moment, there was silence in the air.
Her hesitation, far from making him discouraged, made the corners of his mouth curl up. As for her not lying like she did at the beginning,
From what he knew about her, she was not someone who would easily agree to a promise. Her hesitation now, although she might still have concerns, proved that this was a development in a good direction.
He reached out his hand, slowly held hers, turned his head to look at her, and spoke again calmly:
"Since you love me and I love you just as much, why should two people who love each other be separated by such a long distance?"
Yan Mo was speechless. She had never doubted Si Ze's love for her, even though they hadn't seen each other for half a year. However, sometimes, love alone is not enough for two people to be together.
After this incident, she probably can't get over the hurdle of being his parents. Even though she gave birth to three little ones for him, as a parent, who would want their son to have a person who is like a time bomb and poses a threat to him next to him!
As a mother now, if her son faces such a situation in the future, she thinks she will probably do the same!
What's more, Si Ze has Zhenghong's huge family business in her hands. To put it bluntly, if Zhenghong encounters problems because of her in the future, it will be a sin for her whole life. How can she be worthy of her grandfather?
For a moment, she thought a lot of things in her head, but the final result all pointed to her not being able to agree to him.
Just this one question stood between the two of them. Si Ze saw her worry at a glance. He didn't intend to beat around the bush and said directly:
"Momo, I know what you're worried about. Let me be frank with you! Even if that shot wasn't fired by you, by any of my comrades, like Xun Jiage and the others, I would have stopped it at all costs, even if it cost me my life."
Si Ze was speaking the truth. A trace of pain emerged in the depths of his eyes, and the scene of his instructor sacrificing his life to save him appeared in his mind. In his life, as long as that person was worthy, he would do the same.
"So, you don't have to blame yourself." Si Ze thought for a moment, then spoke out the things that Yan Mo cared about one by one:
"Also, I don't know what you guys were talking about last time. Before I woke up, there was a period of time when I was fine, but suddenly I became critically ill. I have a vague feeling that someone rushed into the intensive care unit that day and seemed to have added something to my medicine. After that, I don't remember anything. I guess my critical illness must be related to this person."
As he spoke, Si Ze turned slightly and lay on his side, gazing deeply at Yan Mo. His other hand suddenly stroked Yan Mo's cheek:
"They said that I woke up because the evil spirit dissipated after my divorce from you, but Mo Mo, do you know the real reason why I woke up?"
Yan Mo was bewildered: "Isn't it?"
Si Ze chuckled, looked at her, shook his head, and said with certainty:
"It's because of you. You brought me back to life."
Yan Mo didn't know whether he could explain his recovery from the divorce with himself. From another perspective, it seemed that it was also because of him.
In a word, Yan Mo's thoughts went astray again.
Si Ze sighed lightly and explained:
"I told you, it's not because of a good divorce from you, so I'm asking you, did you go to see me the night before I woke up?"
"Yes." Yan Mo nodded. There was nothing to hide.
"That night, you talked to me a lot."
Yan Mo nodded again.
Si Ze understood:
"That's right, you know! I don't know what my condition was that day, but at that time I felt like I was in a dark swamp. Just when I was about to sink into it and suffocate, it was you, Mo Mo, you know it!"
"It was your voice that pulled me back and gave me the courage to come out again."
His dark eyes stared at her closely:
"So, stop saying you're evil and that you're against me. To me, you're a ray of light that redeems me and brings me light."
After hearing Si Ze's words, Yan Mo fell into confusion:
"Is that really the case?"
"Of course." Si Ze was very sure that in his life, he could lose everything, but he could not live without him.
"But..." Yan Mo still found it a little unconvinced. The master from Guanghua Temple clearly didn't say that, and she thought the fortune teller must have said something similar, otherwise, his mother wouldn't have had that expression at that time.
"You want to say those words of the charlatans! Then you don't have to care about it. I don't believe in them at all." Si Ze pointed out Yan Mo's doubts as if he had telepathy.
"But they believe it!" Yan Mo said in a voice that only he could hear.
"My parents? I've already talked about them. If my Si family really relied on them, there wouldn't be the Si family we have today." Si Ze said indifferently.
"I'm telling you!" Si Ze leaned closer to Yan Mo's ear and whispered, "I went to Guanghua Temple too. I also went to look for the master who told you your fortunes, and he said he never told you your fortunes. And that fortune teller, everyone who knows him says he's a liar and his fortunes are never accurate."
Hearing this, Yan Mo subconsciously asked:
"Does mom know?"
Hearing Yan Mo addressing his mother, Si Ze felt even better, unable to hide the smile on his face. Then, he slowly spoke:
“Yes.”
After he went to Guanghua Temple to investigate the matter, he told his parents about the result. However, they didn't believe him and said that he had gone crazy for the little girl. They also said that it was wrong to force a confession in such a sacred place as Guanghua Temple.
Si Ze did not comment on this statement. It was not that he did not respect the gods, but those people used the so-called gods to destroy his family and force her away. No matter what it was, he would kill the gods if he met one. What was there to be afraid of?
