Gu Yan paused for a moment, not expecting his beloved to say such a thing. He had to admit that he did think that way, so when he held the knife to his own neck, he did have that thought: what if she hated him and resented him?
He was willing to leave this world to let her escape his control because he loved her. If Wange could not accept his morbid love, he had no choice but to die.
"I thought you would be afraid of me..." I thought you would be afraid and hate me like this, but you said what I really thought.
"Gu Yan, you will never, ever lose me. We will be together forever." I know you only love me, just as I only love you.
Gu Yan just leaned against her without saying anything more.
…
…
Another month passed, and Wan Ge sat by the window, lost in thought. Ruan Ruan softly asked, "What are you thinking about, sir?"
"I'm wondering why my son hasn't shown up yet?" He used to be very reliable; he would come whenever I needed him. Now, even though Gu Yan and I have been working so hard, there's still no sign of him.
"Don't worry, sir. The young master should appear soon. Otherwise, we can make a purchase from the shop, and maybe he'll appear." When the shop automatically gifted the young master when they detected something unusual about his soul, they might do it again now.
"I think you make a good point, so let's give it a try."
The soft change didn't seem to have any effect on the day it was applied, but Wan Ge noticed it the next day.
…
…
In the system's space, Wan Ge saw her child's soul for the first time and inexplicably felt that his appearance was somewhat familiar.
Xiao Chen immediately hugged his mother: "Mother! Mother! Did you look for me? I fell asleep."
He was asleep and didn't sense that his mother needed him; it was only because of the system shop that he was awakened.
Wan Ge sensed power within the child, but her power was suppressed, so she couldn't gauge how strong it was: "Mother needs your help. Could you lend me some of your power?"
Xiao Chen's eyes sparkled with a smile: "Okay!"
Xiao Chen obediently lent his power to his mother. Although he didn't know what his mother wanted to do, he gave her whatever she wanted.
"Good boy!" Wange patted his head. He wasn't very affectionate with her in the little world, but he was really sensible.
Following her plan, Wan Ge used the child's power to create a clone of herself, with a slightly altered appearance and a new identity. This other self would approach Shan Liang under a different guise.
As long as Gu Yan and Shan Liang don't see the other version of myself, then everything will be fine.
After doing all this, Wan Ge's soul returned to her body.
Xiao Chen obediently followed.
…
When Wan Ge opened her eyes, she saw Gu Yan looking anxious. Seeing how nervous he was, she rubbed her eyes and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Why did she feel that Gu Yan seemed very scared?
"Wange, you're finally awake." It really scared him.
"What's wrong?" Is something serious?
"You've been sleeping for two days straight, and I can't wake you up no matter what I do." And the doctor said his wife is pregnant.
"Did I sleep for that long?" I guess something went wrong when I was doing that, which is why I'm only coming back now.
