"I want to!" Ye Chen tightened his grip on her hand, a dark light flickering in his eyes.
"After seeing you lying in a pool of blood that day, my heart ached as if it were being slowly sliced to pieces."
"At that moment I understood that although I really wanted a formal title, I wanted you to be safe and happy more than a title."
"So, as long as you can live peacefully, I'm willing to be used by you, and I can live my whole life without any official status."
He spoke very seriously.
Every word was like a vow.
Shi Nian stared at him for a few seconds.
Then, he lowered his eyes.
Looking at Ye Chen, who was so serious about her.
She suddenly remembered herself from her past life.
Back then, she was willing to give up everything and care about nothing for Ye Chen.
Even though Ye Chen had abused her.
Even if Ye Chen doesn't love her.
Even if Ye Chen has other women in his heart.
She didn't care about any of it.
She was content as long as he belonged to her and she could see him.
Now it's all switched over.
It was his turn to become inseparable from her.
Is this considered retribution?
But she felt no pleasure in the revenge.
Instead, I felt a heavy weight in my heart.
"Nian Nian..."
Shi Nian waved her hand, signaling him to stop talking.
She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and said slowly, "Okay, we can stay together, but I can't guarantee that I'll fall in love with you again..."
"Return?" Ye Chen's heart trembled when he heard this word.
He looked up at Shi Nian in surprise, a hint of excitement in his eyes.
"Nian Nian, did you... ever love me?"
If she hadn't loved him, why would she say "repay"?
When did this happen?
Why didn't he notice anything?
Even though he had never realized her love, the thought that she had once loved him made him feel uncontrollably excited.
Shi Nian was stunned for a moment.
She didn't expect that she would accidentally let something slip.
However, few people believe in the concept of past and present lives.
With Ye Chen's dim-witted brain, there's no way he could guess anything about past lives and present lives.
Even if she said it herself, he might think she was talking nonsense.
Shi Nian chuckled and said in a hoarse voice, "Let bygones be bygones."
Ye Chen wanted to ask more, but seeing that Shi Nian seemed unwilling to say anything more, he could only suppress his questions.
However, his mood suddenly became passionate.
If she once loved him, then it's not impossible for her to fall in love with him again!
He will definitely make Niannian fall in love with him again in the future!
…
In the evening, Shi Nian received a call from the old man, asking her to go back and spend the day with him the next day.
Shi Nian would not refuse her grandfather's request.
Seeing Ye Chen lounging at her maternal grandfather's house, she decided to go back tonight and bring Ye Chen back with her.
Otherwise, when Rong Qing returns, they might start fighting again.
So that very evening, Shi Nian and Ye Chen returned to the Bo family home together.
During dinner that evening, Shi Nian met the old man.
She left the Bo family home in the morning, and it was only a dozen hours before evening.
But when she saw her grandfather again, she felt that he seemed to have aged more than ten years in an instant!
The head that used to have a few black hairs has now turned completely white.
His complexion also became very poor.
Shi Nian was startled by the old man's appearance, and her eyes instantly reddened. "Grandpa, what's wrong? I saw you this morning, and you were fine. Why are you like this now..."
As she spoke, tears began to fall.
