What did he mean by those words?
He didn't really mean to marry her, did he?
However ??
Didn't he love her?
Qing You had once said that he had rejected her feelings because of his illness. Actually, he had always loved her ??
Could it be that Serenity made a mistake?
But if Qingyou hadn't confirmed it, it was impossible to tell her. So, could it be that he had other reasons that he couldn't marry her for?
Just as An Yaru was at a loss as to what to do, the Little Princess said in a soft voice, "Mommy ??"
An Yaru regained her senses, and immediately regained her usual gentleness and gentleness, sitting down on the edge of the bed. Little cutie still hasn't slept? "
The little princess held her sleepy eyes and mumbled, "A teddy bear ??"
"Mommy just forgot. I'll get it for you now, but you have to close your eyes and go to sleep, okay?" An Yaru said softly.
"Yes.
An Yaru rubbed Little Princess's hair and then left the room.
When they were about to return to their room, Nina came in front of the little princess and reported, "Miss An, the young master wants you to go to his room. He has something to talk to you about."
An Yaru was filled with suspicions, she could not guess the reason why he was looking for her, but maintained the smile on her face, "Alright."
After handing over the Teddy bear to the little princess, and seeing the little princess peacefully fall asleep, An Yaru gently knocked on the door to Que Yan's room.
"Come in."
Que Yan's calm voice came out.
An Yaru immediately turned the handle and walked into the room.
In the huge room with a classical European style, Que Yan sat on the sofa.
An Yaru immediately sat down on the sofa opposite Que Yan, and a smile appeared on her face. You were looking for me?
Que Yan nodded his head, his expression serious. From the time I woke up to today, I don't seem to have formally expressed my gratitude to you. At this moment, I sincerely thank you for the care you have shown me over the past year. "
Not knowing why, An Yaru felt that Que Yan's words made them feel distant. After all, he did not need to formally thank her, because he knew very well that she loved him. At this moment, what she wanted was for him to confess to her, and not for his to thank him.
An Yaru maintained her bland smile, but did not know what to say.
Que Yan continued, "Tonight, my parents have already mentioned to me about our wedding. What do you think?"
An Yaru realized that she was unable to answer Que Yan's questions no matter what she said.
Did he still need to ask that question? Of course she did.
It was just that when he asked this question, it seemed to have a deeper meaning.
An Yaru was not used to beating around the bush. After all, she had a straightforward personality, so she maintained her smile and said softly, "Whatever you want to say, just tell me ?? To tell the truth, just now, you and your parents ?? "Oh, I mean my aunt and uncle's conversation. I overheard a few words."
Suddenly, she was no longer able to call the Qu??s couple's parents.
Que Yan's seductive eyes sunk. He probably never would have thought that she would hear the conversation between him and his parents.
An Yaru noticed the change in Que Yan's expression, and immediately said, "I'm fine. Actually, Uncle and Aunt were never able to make decisions in your place, and I have always treated Aunt's words as a joke."
She did not take the words of the Qu??s couple seriously, but she had always thought that as long as he woke up, they would reveal their intentions to him.
Unfortunately ??
Reality seemed to be starting to diverge from her expectations.
"The words I just said to my parents are just hoping that they will respect me, but that doesn't mean I don't want to marry you." Que Yan looked at her profoundly.
"Oh, but allow me to say offensively that I do not think you would like it very much. Of course, you do not need to feel the need to repay me with marriage for the care I have given you over the past year. After all, I have been willing to take care of you." "No," she replied.
"Are you speaking the truth?" he asked quietly.
"Of course, you know that I don't keep my thoughts to myself." From start to finish, An Yaru maintained the smile on her face.
"Then, I'm sorry." Que Yan finally spoke the truth.
No one knew that, but at this moment, it was as if An Yaru's heart had been heavily struck. Intense pain came over her in an instant, but it was concealed very well by the smile on her face.
"Ya Ru, you are indeed a very good girl, but I have told you before that the girl I like isn't a girl like you. Previously, I registered with you as husband and wife only because you have my child, and my life is not going to end so I hope that you and your child can receive the protection of Qu Family in the future. This can also be considered my compensation to you and my child." Que Yan spoke each word clearly.
An Yaru looked at his now recovered face and said calmly, "I thank you for thinking for me and the child when you were 'not long in life' at that time ?? However, I really don't know what you want to say after what you said just now.
Que Yan looked at her, and then slowly said, "I don't love you, so if you and I were to marry, we would not be able to be happy, but I am truly grateful to you for giving me such a cute daughter, and also to you for taking care of me over the past year, so other than marriage, I can give you whatever compensation you want."
An Yaru gently laughed, "I roughly understand what you mean ?? "Actually, you wanted to say that before we were married, you wanted to use this marriage as compensation for our children and me because you didn't have much time left to live, but now that you have recovered, you think that if we really get married, there's no way we can be happy, right?"
"Yes." Que Yan answered without hesitation.
An Yaru's complexion finally paled at this moment.
She stared at the man sitting in front of her, as if it was her first time meeting him. She stared into his calm eyes, a bitter mist instantly shrouding her clear eyes ??
"Of course you can refuse, because the care you've given me in the past year alone is enough for me to repay you with my marriage." Que Yan added.
"No need." An Yaru was finally no longer able to smile and said expressionlessly.
"I want you to think it over." Que Yan looked at the expression on her face.
"I don't need to think it through, because I don't want this kind of forced marriage, and I don't love you as much as you think I do."
Que Yan scrutinized her.
An Yaru also met his gaze.
The man sitting opposite her seemed very close but also very far away. At this moment, she realized that she had never known him before.
"I don't need you to compensate me with your marriage. If you really want to compensate me, then just give me a sum of money!" An Yaru looked at him, and said bitterly but firmly, "Also, the custody of the child belongs to me."
"Are you in charge of the child?" Que Yan looked down at her. You know, with how much my parents cherish their children, even if I'm willing to let them go, they might not be willing. "
