Chapter 161: Weixi, You are My Life

Ji Weixi was held very tightly.

She couldn’t calm down—the scent of shampoo wafting from the person behind her left her mind in a mess.

Biting her lip and adjusting her breaths, she said, “L-Let me go, I have to sleep.”

Her lips were slightly parted beneath his straight nose, and his eyes were devilish, and sparkling as if baptized by the waters of spring.

So fatal.

Ji Weixi could not tear her eyes away, and gulped unwittingly.

Li Shaoling was inching closer, and she held her breath.

That was when she heard a hoarse, quiet voice rasping beside her ear. “Good night.”

The lights were out, and the bedroom was taken by darkness and silence.

She suddenly felt a hand over her hip.

Surprised, she looked down. Beneath the bright moonlight, the heavily bandaged hand was wrapped tightly around her, with some blood appearing over it.

Those fingers were long and thin, as exquisite as art.

Her eyes suddenly became watery. She felt her heart breaking when she remembered that his hand could be disabled.

Holding his hand, she softly asked, “Li Shaoling, would you have died in exchange for my life?”

“Of course.”

There was no pause in his voice.

“Am I that important to you?”

“It’s not a matter of importance. You are my life.”

She turned around to come face-to-face with him. “But you don’t have your memories from four-years ago. Won’t you regret this?”

Her heart only ever felt tangled when it’s about what happened four years ago.

She had the feeling that he would regret all that he has done for her when he remembered.

Even if she had muddleheadedly consummated with him back then, he now insisted he loved her despite his lost memories.

Such a sentiment was hollow and vague.

Ji Weixi was always left worrying, just as she could not help falling for him.

Meanwhile, Li Shaoling was starting to frown, and firmly pulled her closer as his voice turned cold. “I’ll swallow you whole if you keep saying such things.”

“…I won’t ask, then.”

Ji Weixi tamely slept in his embrace.

Unable to sleep, he closed his eyes lightly to rest but suddenly said, “Ji Weixi, I’ll love you whatever happens.”

His undoubting tone caressed her worried, upset heart.

“Okay…” She smiled, before abruptly opening her eyes and helping him sit up too. “Right, I have something to talk to you about!”

Li Shaoling grunted an affirmative as he slowly sat up and watched her cross her legs. “Tell me.”

“Our son is not a baby anymore. It’s time for him to attend kindergarten, what do you think?”

Li Shaoling’s reaction was flat. “That’s up to you.”

“…You have many contacts… I hope that you could get an excellent one.” Ji Weixi was embarrassed, but also told herself that it was natural to have her son’s father do such a thing. “I’m working with you and wouldn’t have time to care for him from now on if things get busy, so, you…”
