She pushed Shi Wenye away, hugging the quilt to cover the traces of love on her body, her eyes turned cold, "Do you think I didn't divorce you and chose to stay with you because I knew your true identity?
"
Shi Wenye stretched out his hand to pull her back into his arms, but Ye Nanyue dodged it.
"I... whatever you want, I can give it to you." He said anxiously, "Power, status..."
"Shi Wenye!" She interrupted him with an angry face and sneered at herself, "So, do you really think that I want to gain power and status from you?"
He closed his eyes and opened them again, having calmed down the bitterness in his heart. "Nanyue, I know you dislike my identity as an illegitimate son. But this identity is not something I can choose."
"What I can give you is nothing but my power. As long as you want it, I can give it to you." He rushed over forcefully and held her in his arms, "I can give you whatever you want.
For you. As long as you are by my side."
He hugged himself hard and whispered in his ears over and over again that he could give her power and benefits.
Ye Nanyue felt a chill in her heart.
A piece of sincerity has been misinterpreted!
She couldn't help laughing, and her whole body was shaking slightly.
Shi Wenye hugged her, feeling worried and flustered, "Nanyue, I said the wrong thing, I..."
She pushed him away suddenly, stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears that overflowed from the corner of her eyes, "You are right, I, Ye Nanyue, am this kind of person. I only love power and status. Whoever has power and can bring me status, I will accompany him."
Eat, drink and sleep together.”
"Nanyue, that's not what I meant..."
She waved away his extended hand, hugged the quilt and stood barefoot beside the bed, "Shi Wenye, you have never truly understood me. I have never truly known you."
"We started this marriage wearing a mask."
"It's natural to be reduced to this situation."
Shi Wenye's hand dropped weakly, and his voice was weak but full of anger, "Isn't it enough?"
Ye Nanyue: "..."
"Even if I promise to give you these things, is it still not enough?" He slowly raised his eyes, with a surprisingly depressed emotion in them, "What do you want, tell me?"
He got out of bed without any scruples and walked up to her, "What do you want?"
He asked in a painful tone.
"You can't stand my identity as an illegitimate child. Even if I give you everything, you're not even willing to pretend?"
Ye Nanyue listened to the question in his tone, "What are you pretending to be?"
"Pretend to love me!" he yelled, "or do you have to wait until I put all the things I promised you in front of you before you pretend to love me?"
Ye Nanyue: "..."
"Xia Junyan, Shi Wenzhi, Fang Nianshen, these people can let you choose. Apart from being a direct descendant, what else can compare to me. You can pretend to love them, why can't you pretend to love me!" Just pretend for a while!
, are unwilling to do so.
Does she hate his illegitimate son status so much?
The words she once said flashed through my mind.
She said she was disgusted with him and their closeness.
Because he was an illegitimate child, she hated illegitimate children and mistresses the most in her life.
"You..." Ye Nanyue took a step back and turned to leave.
Shi Wenye grabbed her and asked, "Where are you going?"
Ye Nanyue shook off his arm and took a few steps back. She said weakly: "Shi Wenye, I have never disliked your identity as an illegitimate child. I said, this is not a choice you can make."
Shi Wenye's face froze, then he rushed over and hugged her hard, "Yeah. If you say it, I will believe it."
"..." He didn't believe it.
Ye Nanyue struggled in his arms, but Shi Wenye hugged her harder.
She said muffledly, "I want to take a shower."
"I'll accompany you."
"I want to wash alone."
"……good."
In the bathroom, the sound of the shower covered the faint sound of crying.
Ye Nanyue huddled herself in a corner of the bathroom, crying softly and suppressedly.
Shi Wenye took out his bathrobe and put it on his body casually. He touched the cigarette case beside the bed, took one out and put it to his mouth.
ignite.
He leaned against the bathroom door and smoked, raising his head slightly in the smoke.
Didn't he know what he said wrong?
He is just afraid.
I'm going to the Imperial Capital soon and won't be able to see each other for a long time.
There was Xia Junyan in Ancheng, who sometimes heard about it and sometimes thought about it deeply.
They are all people Ye Nanyue has chosen.
He just wanted to tell her that he could bring her everything she wanted.
This is his only bargaining chip, and he can give it all to her.
What he was afraid of was that she didn't even want these things from him, and he didn't know what else he could do to keep her by his side.
…
Airport.
Ye Nanyue drove Shi Wenye to the airport, which was what he strongly requested this morning.
"Call every day."
"……Um."
"Be careful with Ye Jinzheng."
"I know."
Shi Wenye stretched out his hand to hook her over, his dark eyes facing hers, his thin lips tightening, "I think a wedding is still needed."
Ye Nanyue met his dark eyes and remained silent.
Shi Wenye stretched out his hand and wiped her lips, which instantly turned bright red. He suddenly bit her lips and nibbled them gently.
The kiss was very gentle.
After he finished the kiss, he said, "I want everyone in the world to know that you are my wife."
Ye Nanyue leaned weakly on his shoulder. She slowly stretched out her hand and patted his back, "Be safe."
Just these words made the gloom in Shi Wenye's eyes dissipate, and he hugged her harder.
"Do you love me? Nanyue!"
Before Ye Nanyue could speak, Shi Wenye immediately said, "Even if you are lying to me, I hope you can say you love me at this time."
Ye Nanyue closed her eyes and whispered in his ear, "Shi Wenye, I love you."
After a second's pause, he said, "I mean it sincerely."
Shi Wenye laughed, "Even if it's fake, I'm still very happy."
Ye Nanyue: "..."
He let go of her, his eyes burning, "When I come back, I will definitely give you a grand wedding."
"Um."
He pushed the suitcase and left, walked to the airport gate, turned back and smiled at her.
The warm winter sunshine shone on him, bathing his whole body in soft light.
This smile seemed to make the coldness around him disappear.
Ye Nanyue touched her racing heart and smiled to herself.
…
Shi Wenye is very busy, but no matter how busy he is, he will take time to call or video chat with her every day.
She will wait every day, no matter how late it is.
On this day, Ye Nanyue was sitting on the bedside reading a book while looking at her mobile phone. It was almost twelve o'clock, and Shi Wenye hadn't called or sent a video yet.
Time passed minute by minute, and when the second was approaching twelve, the phone suddenly rang.
Ye Nanyue answered the call immediately.
There was a whistling sound from the opposite side, which seemed to be at the seaside.
