She knew that Gu Guanhai wouldn't compromise so easily, but she never expected him to make such a request!
Marry him?
There was a time when, facing him with his unshaven, rugged appearance, she too had those thoughts, but...
She asked herself, and she knew she couldn't afford that price!
I couldn't afford it before, but now...
After learning his true identity, she couldn't bear it anymore!
Yu Mingxiang took a deep breath. "Gu Guanhai, you must be joking."
She said in a deep voice, "What is your identity? You are a renowned commander of the elite force, a national sharp blade who has made numerous outstanding contributions, and an immortal hero whose name will be enshrined in a monument after your death!"
"What kind of woman couldn't you have? Why me of all people?"
“I already have a son and grandson, and my daughter is nearing the end of her life. We... are not suitable for each other, are we?”
Gu Guanhai stroked his chin and nodded, saying thoughtfully, "Come to think of it, it seems that's true."
Yu Mingxiang: ...
He breathed a sigh of relief without making it obvious.
But.
Before she could even catch her breath, Gu Guanhai said again:
"But what will you do if I don't marry you?"
He counted on his fingers, saying in a serious tone, "Look, first of all, you've been reborn and possess supernatural abilities. You need to know that there are no secrets that last forever. Once these secrets of yours are exposed, I'm not bragging, but there are very few people in this world who can keep you safe, and I happen to be one of them."
"Secondly, you want to kill Qin Yuzhu, but as I told you, the existence of the Superpower Bureau means that there is no perfect crime in this world. As long as you do it, you will inevitably leave traces. Even if you use your superpowers to deceive the local police officers, you cannot escape the eyes of the Superpower Bureau."
"So, whether for your own sake or to resolve the problem of Qin Yuzhu, marrying me is your best choice, isn't it?"
After saying that, Gu Guanhai looked at Yu Mingxiang with a sincere smile.
Meeting his gaze, Yu Mingxiang exclaimed, "!!!"
His face was contorted with rage.
"You're trying to scare me!"
She said in a deep voice, "If threatening me doesn't work, then you're trying to scare me now? Didn't we agree before that we'd each go our own way and not owe each other anything? Why are you bringing this up again?"
Gu Guanhai smiled and said, "Because I want to marry you!"
He said with a sincere expression, "From beginning to end, I've only had one thought, and that is to marry you! Before, you rejected me because I couldn't give you the promise you wanted, but now..."
"Now that you know my identity and the reasons why I can't make promises, could you... considering my identity, that I'm still somewhat useful and can help you, perhaps compromise a little?"
"I can't guarantee that I'll come back safely from every mission, but I will do my best to make sure I don't die before you."
His words resonated deeply.
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang exclaimed, "!!!"
His expression, however, was somewhat strange.
"Trying not to get ahead of me?"
She sneered, "How are you going to fight for it? With the nature of your job, do you think I don't understand what 'sharp blade' means?"
"I've seen your inscription and your statue!"
Gu Guanhai's lips twitched upon hearing this.
"Can you please stop making me feel glorious all the time?"
He patted his chest and said, "I'm still alive and well, aren't I? Let me tell you, Old Yuan said that evil people live for a thousand years. I have the face of longevity. I can live to ninety-nine!"
Yu Mingxiang: "Hehe."
He sneered and said, "I have seen your monument, your statue."
Gu Guanhai: "!!!"
His lips twitched.
"Old Yuan is the top dog at the Supernatural Abilities Bureau, and he's got a good eye for people!"
He gritted his teeth and said, "He said that if I don't live to be ninety-nine, I should take him with me."
Yu Mingxiang: "I've seen your..."
Gu Guanhai: "!!!"
