Xu Tingchuan nodded and pursed his lips, saying, "If Mu Zhi knew that Su Yan got into trouble because she went to see him, he would go crazy."
"But won't they all blame you for this?" Ni Sitian felt sorry for him. He must have had to endure so much right after the accident.
Xu Tingchuan smiled faintly. At that time, he did indeed suffer some, including Shen Muzhi's anger and the condemnation from Su's parents.
But this is better than letting Shen Muzhi lose his mind. Shen Muzhi doesn't know that Su Yan likes him, and he doesn't know that the person Su Yan is looking for is also him. This way, his psychological burden is a little lighter.
Even so, Shen Muzhi is still obsessed with it. If he knew that Su Yan liked him, he would probably never be able to get over it for the rest of his life.
"So Jia Yue mistakenly thought that you were still hung up on Su Yan and couldn't forget her, which is why you haven't dated anyone else?" Once Ni Si Tian thought about it this way, things made sense.
"They probably all think so, including Mu Zhi, Pei Yang, and even Mom and Dad." Xu Tingchuan didn't want to have to explain to everyone that he and Su Yan didn't love each other after Su Yan was no longer alive.
Anyway, he didn't mind being misunderstood. In fact, the misunderstanding helped him avoid a lot of blind dates.
After listening to everything, Ni Sitian lowered her eyes and remained silent, carefully digesting such a large amount of information.
"Actually, I've been waiting to see when you'd lose your temper." Xu Tingchuan pinched Ni Sitian's nose and smiled faintly. "I didn't expect you to be so composed, not asking at all. I've even started to wonder if you don't care whether I like other women..."
"I...I..." Ni Sitian lowered her eyes, gritted her teeth, and took a breath: "What I care about is that I don't want you to like other women!"
"Hmm?" Xu Tingchuan raised an eyebrow, wanting to hear her continue.
"You're only allowed to like me!" Ni Sitian raised her eyes, met Xu Tingchuan's gaze, and emphasized again, "You can only like me!"
"Why?" Xu Tingchuan held Ni Sitian's small hand, stroking her wedding ring, and said softly, "Ni Sitian, you can't be so domineering. If you want something unique, you always need a reason."
Ni Sitian lowered her eyes, pursed her lips, and remained silent for a long time before finally saying in a muffled voice, "I am your wife, so you are only allowed to like me."
Xu Tingchuan chuckled, pinched her chin, lifted it, and looked directly into her eyes, saying, "Then I am your husband, do you like me?"
Ni Sitian met his dark, inky eyes and felt flustered, avoiding his gaze.
“Look, this reason doesn’t seem to hold water.” Xu Tingchuan released her and stood up.
Seeing that he seemed to be leaving, Ni Sitian quickly stood up and hugged him tightly from behind, stammering, "It's true, it's true."
Xu Tingchuan's lips curled up slightly as he grasped her arm that was wrapped around him, making a move to break free.
Ni Sitian grew anxious, wrapping her arms around his waist to prevent him from pushing her away. In her haste, she blurted out, "I like him, I like him..."
After her initial anxiety subsided, her voice grew softer and softer, her cheeks flushed and burning, and her heart pounded so hard it felt like it was about to jump out of her throat.
Joy slowly gathered in Xu Tingchuan's eyes, his gaze filled with a gentle light that surpassed even the warmth of spring.
