One is approaching, the other is retreating.
With nowhere to retreat, Song Lan collapsed onto the bed.
"Wife, I think you're just afraid of me."
Qin Yanzheng stretched out his long arm and pulled the person into his arms.
"Let's talk this out, okay? Just let me go."
Song Lan looked up and caught sight of the man's beautifully shaped chin. She quickly looked away, afraid that if she looked any longer, something might happen.
Because she felt her heart rate was accelerating and it wasn't returning to normal, and she... she was quite naive when it came to relationships, but she had already opened her heart to this man, which meant she had feelings for him, and she also knew that he had feelings for her.
If they were to hug each other so closely again, something unspeakable would inevitably happen.
The room was filled with pink bubbles.
Both of them had taken a bath, and even though they were dressed neatly now, they could still smell the fresh scent of each other's bath.
"I won't let go!"
Qin Yanzheng whispered in Song Lan's ear, "You are my wife, my revolutionary partner, and the lover I want to spend my life with. It is impossible for me to let you go."
Song Lan: "..." Was that what she meant? She clearly wanted him to let go of her, okay?
"Sweetheart, let's drink the nuptial wine first."
Holding the person in his arms, Qin Yanzheng walked to the table, picked up a small wine cup and handed it to Song Lan, then picked up another one for himself. Then, while Song Lan was in a daze, the two completed the ritual of drinking wine together.
Qin Yanzheng actually wanted to say more, but he was afraid of arousing Song Lan's suspicion, afraid that Song Lan would guess that he already knew her secret, and become unnatural in front of him, or simply propose a divorce.
Even though he didn't actively seek out the secret, he genuinely learned from her innermost thoughts that she wasn't the woman he had married.
Of course, he also knew that she did not take his place voluntarily, but that it was a kind of fate that made her become Song Lan in this world.
Otherwise, how can we explain the many things she knows?
In short, Qin Yanzheng felt that the wife he was holding in his arms had come to save him, his family, and everyone she cared about in this body... Perhaps, her arrival was requested by Song Lan of this world.
Regardless of the possibilities, he only knew that she had no ill will towards those around her or the world, and that she was an open-minded and loving hero.
On the other hand, there was no romantic relationship between him and Song Lan, whom he had married out of necessity. He didn't even know what she looked like on the day he married her.
Marrying her was out of necessity, responsibility, and commitment.
Qin Yanzheng knew very well that if he refused when Song Weimin and his wife came to his door making trouble and demanding that he take responsibility for "Song Lan" and marry her, there was a high chance that someone would die.
Rumors spread quickly. Even after he carefully took the rescued girl back to her home, the next day, not only in the staff and family compound but also in the villa area, many people were gossiping and mentioning his name.
They say he was hugging and looking at the person while rescuing them, so it's not his responsibility. Does that mean the two thugs who were arrested should marry the person?
It concerns human lives, and he cannot stand idly by.
Qin Yanzheng remembered that when he made the decision, he thought it would be best if the couple could cultivate feelings for each other; otherwise, he would use kinship to maintain the marriage and be responsible for her for the rest of his life.
Living under the same roof and spending a long time together will definitely foster a family-like bond.
Unless the other party is as hard-hearted as iron and cannot be warmed up.
Even so, as long as the other party doesn't bring up divorce, he can still keep their marriage going.
At worst, we just won't live together.
Given his job, it's common for him to be unable to go home for ten days or half a month at most, possibly even one or two years.
According to his original life plan, he would not start a family and would dedicate his life to the country.
Unexpectedly, an accident will occur.
As his thoughts drifted to this point, Qin Yanzheng let out a sigh.
The woman he married was gone. How she died was beyond scientific explanation, but he knew very well that he could do nothing but sigh inwardly.
Occasionally, he would think that perhaps she too had encountered some kind of opportunity, like his current wife, and had been reborn in another world.
"Qin Yanzheng".
Song Lan's gentle voice suddenly rang out.
"Um?"
Qin Yanzheng responded.
"You asked me what I was thinking before, now can you tell me what you're thinking?"
Lost in thought, he stood with her for a while, and even though he wasn't tired, she was exhausted and wanted to go to bed to rest immediately.
"I'm wondering why my wife's face is so red."
Qin Yanzheng lowered his eyes and smiled at the person in his arms: "I just don't know if I'll have the honor of knowing the reason."
The heat on Song Lan's face had already subsided, and she guessed that the man was teasing her, but her cheeks still stubbornly burned up. To hide her unease, she deliberately stepped on his foot, and while he was in pain, she used a clever trick to free herself.
"Making fun of me comes at a price!"
Staring at the man with an arrogant expression, Song Lan asked, "This room is mine. You can find somewhere else to sleep."
Qin Yanzheng chuckled softly. He felt that Song Lan's glare at him was equivalent to her flirting with him. Not only did it not have any deterrent effect, but it also made him feel numb and very happy.
"No, this is our bedroom. I have to sleep with you. Besides, we just drank the nuptial wine, so we should have a perfect wedding night."
"That's all in the past."
When did this happen?
Qin Yanzheng cooperated with Song Lan in acting.
"What do you think? We've been married for quite some time now!"
