Love You for the Rest of My Life

Chapter 2410: Chapter 2409: My Immaturity Made You This Way

He lies there alone, so lonely and helpless, so haggard.

That pale face is truly devoid of any color, making her heart twist with pain.

"Alvin." Nangong Lin choked as she walked over, step by step towards the bed, where there’s only a small high stool. She sat on it, looking at his incredibly pale face with heartache.

"How can you be so foolish?" She couldn’t help but reach out to touch his pale features, gently tracing them as if trying to engrave his image into her very bones.

"You tell me, what’s the point of working so hard for me? In the end, you’re lying here, unconscious. The doctor said you might become a vegetable, do you understand what that means? It’s like being asleep for years, not dead but not alive either. You ended up like this, aren’t you afraid I’ll find someone else to marry?

So, do you see how foolish you are?"

As she spoke, Nangong Lin’s tears fell, landing on Alvin’s hand.

She hurriedly took his hand and carefully wiped them away.

Taking a deep breath, she muttered to herself, "But don’t worry, I won’t find someone else to marry. People like me, an old auntie, don’t have many admirers. I’m so prideful, probably only someone naive like you would love me.

Alvin, actually, do you know? Let me tell you a secret: long, long ago, before you came to the Empire and before you fell for Xiaoran, I quite liked you. I was your little fan girl, but not in a crazy way. I don’t chase stars, probably because I am a celebrity myself. But I really liked you, liked your songs, liked your dances, even liked how you looked.

Back then, I even thought about whether there’d be a chance to stand on the same stage with you. But you’re a singing and dancing superstar, and I’m just an actress. Honestly, I don’t have as much talent as you, and you’re younger than me. It always felt a bit indecent, like an old cow trying to flirt with young grass, something I really couldn’t bring myself to do.

Later, Gu Xiaoqi got pregnant, and the Third Young Master of the Empire celebrated it grandly. You came unexpectedly. I didn’t realize you had such a good relationship with Xiaojin. At the time, I was quite excited, thinking I could have a chance. But before that chance, I saw the way you looked at Xiaoran.

At that moment, I knew you liked Xiaoran because your gaze was fervent, a look I’d never seen from you before. So, as an old auntie, there’s no way I could interfere with you young people’s affairs.

But who would have thought that after going in circles, fate would bring us together as lovers. I admit I’m someone with high standards, sometimes pretending to be proud, clearly liking you but finding reasons not to. That’s why it was so hard for you to win me over.

About going to B Country, at first, I really resisted. But when the relationship was announced, I decided I would go with you, marry you, become your princess. But I purposely didn’t say anything, wanting to surprise you. I had planned to tell you in front of everyone at the film premiere, but I really didn’t expect..."

At this point, Nangong Lin’s tears flowed uncontrollably, like a broken faucet that couldn’t be turned off.

"But, but, I really didn’t expect... you would become like this before hearing my words..."

"Alvin, you should slap me; I’ve taken advantage and complained... it’s my fault, I’m an old auntie but still acting like a young one, deliberately keeping you hanging. I just wanted to see you love me a bit more to make up for how you initially fell for Nangong Ran.

Alvin, am I childish? I really am childish; my childishness has led you to become like this, I..."
