Chapter 1431: Chapter 1431: Fallen
Ding Ge has many people, and sent someone specifically to watch over their camp, and ever since Ding Ge sent Silver to Fang Tian, the Fan Family also sent people to watch them.
Even though their carriage was surrounded by several carts and tents, and there were people patrolling the camp, it was not easy for the Ding Family and Fan Family to find out their true situation. But now, it’s a sensitive moment with Fang Tian riding high, they can’t reconcile too quickly, they have to keep pretending.
"Don’t worry, I’ll go out thirty minutes after I come in, and then I’ll spread the word that my friendly gesture was rejected, and we fought again." Qin San Lang placed the food box on the low table, took off his shoes and outer robe, got into the carriage, pulled down the carriage curtain, and stared at Gu Jinli.
Gu Jinli felt annoyed by his gaze: "What are you looking at? It’s not like you haven’t seen it before."
Qin San Lang laughed, reached out his hand to her: "Come over, hug me."
Gu Jinli snorted: "Here we go again with this trick, I’m not going over."
Ever since they got engaged, every time he came back to see her, he’d ask her for a hug.
Qin San Lang guessed she wouldn’t come over, so he moved his body, extended his long arm, wrapped it around her waist, and pulled her into his embrace... the warm, soft body cuddled into his heart, finally settling the heart that he’d been thinking about for a day and a night.
"Did you really cry last night?" Qin San Lang asked, for ever since last night until today, he’d been remembering the tears in her eyes, although the tears didn’t fall, he could feel that at that moment, she was really sad.
He had been worried ever since he was waiting outside the Fan Family camp last night, and even today while traveling, several times he couldn’t help but want to return to the carriage to ask her, but did she really cry? Tell her not to be angry, not to be sad, he won’t say things again that make her sad.
Gu Jinli was slightly startled, did not expect him to ask about her almost crying last night, she turned her head aside and said: "All these years have you ever seen me cry? You’re overthinking, I won’t cry."
Qin San Lang looked at her turning her head away, feeling even more upset: "Liar."
Gu Jinli stubbornly said: "I’m not lying, I’m a grown person, would I lie for this?"
Moreover...
"And you? Were you telling the truth last night? Do you really think I don’t like you enough?" Gu Jinli turned back, raising her chin slightly, looking at him with some arrogance.
Boy, be careful with what you say, otherwise I’ll really get angry!
Qin San Lang looked at her, remained silent.
Gu Jinli was mad: "You really think I don’t like you enough!"
She’s furious, for the first time in two lifetimes she had treated a man so well, yet you think it’s not enough?
"Sorry, I have become too greedy." Qin San Lang’s arms tightened, embraced her more, expressing words hidden for a long time: "At first, I thought I was dragging you down, so I wanted to be nicer to you; then when I discovered I had fallen for you, I wanted to silently stay by your side, protect you, make you happy; later I was unwilling, I wanted to marry you; now that I have married you, I want you to like me more, like me to the extent that you see me as your life, or even more important than your life."
Then hastily said: "My feelings for Xiao Yu are like life itself, so Xiao Yu don’t feel like liking me more is a loss."
She loves money, her nature is rather calm and cold-blooded, and to avoid sadness she would intentionally control her emotions. She had said before, if a person cares too much for another, that is a losing proposition, and she doesn’t do losing propositions.
Gu Jinli was shocked to hear this.
Qin San Lang had always been a calm and reserved person, most of the time, whether happy or sad, he would only slightly show it, rarely exhibiting intense emotions or strong feelings.
The most intense thing he had done was when she agreed to engage, he jumped through the window to kiss her forcibly, and becoming so anxious on their wedding night that he tore off her skirt.
She knew he liked her, but she didn’t know to what extent he liked her? Or would it change?
Gu Jinli became somewhat dazed, didn’t know what she was thinking.
In short, she felt comfortable with Brother Qin, he made her feel relaxed, made her want to spend her days with him, but making a huge fuss about being lovey-dovey didn’t seem to be within her plans.
But does she really not like him that much?
"Xiao Yu..." Qin San Lang saw her not speaking, his face darkened, unsure what she was thinking, his heart also sank, hugging her tighter, kissing her, gently nibbling, murmuring: "Xiao Yu, don’t stay silent, okay?"
His voice carried a plea, he had become greedy, wanting her to see him as life itself, rather than just liking a little.
Gu Jinli’s mouth moved, intending to speak, but her throat choked, making it difficult to articulate, after a silent half an hour, on the verge of his despair, she finally found her voice, cupping his face, looking into his eyes, said: "I like you, in my heart, you surpass life and Silver."
Qin San Lang upon hearing, his heart that had plunged into the sea of bitterness fell into a honey pot, laughing loudly, unable to express this joy in words, could only kiss her lips fiercely, indulgently nibbling, using this method to express his happiness.
But Gu Jinli became saddened, avoiding his kiss, laying her head on his shoulder, said: "I feel like I’m finished, what if you like someone else in the future?"
On the night of the coming-of-age ceremony, when he came to see her, saying he wanted to be engaged to her, and confessed, asking her to respond, she had said she liked him.
But at that time, her liking was within her controllable range, if Qin San Lang changed his heart, she could step back anytime and continue doing as she pleases.
But now she had given him her whole heart.
If she owned this heart entirely, she could be fearless!
Yet when this heart is given to him, she starts to panic, afraid of future changes.
After all, whether ancient or modern, men who never change their affections are extremely rare, she doesn’t naively believe she can encounter a man who never changes his heart.
Qin San Lang upon hearing her slightly choking tone and fear in her speech, felt heartache like twisting, hugging her comforting: "It won’t happen, my heart is already given to you, I won’t like any other woman, my body and mind along with my assets are yours."
Gu Jinli: "Nice words everyone can say, but you are not a stone, if you really change your heart, you can’t control it."
After saying that she pushed him away, irritably said: "You go out, I don’t want to see you now, let me be quiet."
With that, she dragged over the quilt to cover herself, a posture of not wanting to see him.
Qin San Lang was anxious, not knowing how to soothe her, helplessly crawled into the quilt and forcefully hugged her.
Gu Jinli initially wanted to struggle, but when he shoved a dagger into her hand, she was afraid of accidentally stabbing him and could only remain still.
"Xiao Yu, don’t be afraid, I can assure you, that day won’t come, if it really does, you can kill me, my life is yours." Qin San Lang held her hand, placing the dagger against his heart.
