Chapter 323: With You in My Heart, No One Else Can Enter
Su Niannian thought of many possibilities, but she had never thought that Gu Nan's first question would be this.
"Yes." When Su Niannian thought back to her previous life, tears instantly welled up in her eyes.
Crystal clear tears slid down Su Niannian's cheeks and onto Gu Nan's shoulders.
Realizing that his little girl was crying, Gu Nan let go of the hand that was holding Su Niannian and placed his hands on Su Niannian's shoulders.
"Why are you crying?" Gu Nan wiped Su Niannian's tears in a hurry.
Weren’t we together in the previous life? Why is my little girl crying so sadly?
Su Niannian felt Gu Nan's hand with slightly calloused fingertips wiping her tears, and couldn't help but think of how Gu Nan was like this before he passed away in her previous life.
The tears could not help but flow even more violently.
Gu Nan’s thoughts were completely confused now, and he could only hug Su Niannian again and comfort her.
"Did I do something to offend you in my previous life?"
"Don't cry! Don't cry." Gu Nan whispered gently to comfort Su Niannian.
Su Niannian shook her head.
"Are you stupid? If you did something wrong to me in my previous life, would I still come back to you in this life?" Su Niannian was amused by Gu Nan's words.
Gu Nan's heart softened as he looked at the little girl in his arms.
It’s not me… Could it be the little girl…
Impossible.
As soon as a bad idea came to his mind, Gu Nan immediately denied it.
Su Niannian didn't want to continue teasing Gu Nan, nor did she want Gu Nan to continue worrying.
She leaned in Gu Nan's arms, slowly opened her mouth, and told him about her previous life.
"At first, I was forced to go to the countryside and live in a mountain village..."
At the beginning, Su Niannian was forced to go to the countryside, and experienced a lot in Kaoshan Village. She was deceived by Lu Xingguang and Huang Yingying, two educated youth, and all her money was cheated away.
His life was miserable. He didn't have good relations with Song Zhaodi, nor with anyone else.
No one would feel sorry for such a little girl, and her reputation was almost ruined by Lu Xingguang and Huang Yingying.
Then, when the college entrance examination was resumed a year later, Su Niannian barely got into a university.
At that time, it was just the first year that the college entrance examination was resumed, and various rules and regulations were not perfect.
Su Niannian's college admission letter was stolen by her stepmother Tao Chunhua, who then sold her to a gangster.
The gangster beat Su Niannian every day and didn't give her a full meal. Su Niannian's body was covered with wounds of varying sizes, and her skin was torn and flesh was exposed.
Su Niannian's father knew about this, but he didn't care whether Su Niannian lived or died.
It was not until the gangster committed a crime and was caught that Su Niannian was able to escape.
Coincidentally, Su Niannian met Gu Nan again at that time.
When Gu Nan heard his own name in the story told by Su Niannian, he couldn't help but hug Su Niannian even tighter.
Gu Nan thought, now that he had met me, his life would be good from now on, right?
Su Niannian chuckled, hugged Gu Nan tightly, and continued speaking.
"At that time, I had lost hope in life, but you stayed by my side, always taking care of me and protecting me."
"But, because of this, you didn't return to the army."
In the previous life, after Gu Nan and Su Niannian met again, Gu Nan always took good care of Su Niannian, and the two later got married.
But at that time, Gu Nan was already alone.
Mother, elder brother, younger sister, all dead...
With his clever brain, Gu Nan quickly rose in the business world.
He was a very rich man, but he never returned to the army he longed for.
Time passed happily for several years until Gu Nan fell ill.
Gu Nan went to the hospital for a check-up and found that with the medical level at the time, there was no possibility of curing his illness.
Therefore, Gu Nan did not tell Su Niannian about his illness, but endured everything silently.
Moreover, I work harder to make money and save money than before.
Gu Nan hopes that when his life ends, Su Niannian can live a good life with the money he leaves behind.
When Gu Nan was dying, Su Niannian's grandfather recognized Su Niannian.
However, it was too late. Even the top medical experts and masters of traditional Chinese medicine at that time were unable to pull Gu Nan back from the brink of death.
"When I knew you were dying, I wanted to leave this world with you."
"I feel like my first half of life was terrible. I can't imagine how I would live without you."
"I can't imagine why God is so harsh to me."
"That day, you held my hand and told me that you wanted me to promise you that even if you were gone, I would live well..."
"I didn't want to agree to you, but the expectation in your eyes at that time made it impossible for me to say no."
"You're like a porcelain doll. If I don't agree to you, you'll break immediately."
Su Niannian leaned in Gu Nan's arms, muttering.
Gu Nan's eyes were red.
"I must have felt very powerless at that time. I wanted to protect the person, but I was unable to do so because my life was coming to an end."
"And then...after I die, will you be obedient and live well?"
Gu Nan's voice became hoarse, and his throat felt like something was blocking it, making it difficult for him to breathe.
Gu Nan has always boasted that he is a capable person. At that time, he must have felt extremely powerless lying on the hospital bed.
"You told me at that time to find someone who loves me and then get married." Su Niannian suddenly remembered this and said with a smile.
But after saying this, Su Niannian felt her nose sore again.
How sad Gu Nan must have felt when he said those words at that time.
Who is willing to give the person they love most to someone else?
If possible, if still possible, who wouldn't want to stay with the one they love until they grow old together?
The smile stopped and Su Niannian's tears flowed uncontrollably.
Gu Nan hugged Su Niannian, patted her shoulders gently, and comforted her.
At this moment, both of them felt very uncomfortable.
"Don't cry, at least we are still together now, right?" Gu Nan whispered to comfort Su Niannian.
"I have already accepted all of this. You must be feeling much worse than I am right now."
"I'm sorry to tell you about such a sad past life." Su Niannian raised her hand and touched Gu Nan's face.
Gu Nan shook his head. "No, knowing this will only make me cherish you and us even more."
When Su Niannian heard Gu Nan say this, she answered Gu Nan's question.
"I am living a good life, but you are in my heart. You are rooted there. There is no room in my life for anyone to come in."
