Ling Yiran subconsciously wanted to escape Yi Jinli's arms, but he held her a little tighter instead. His nose was full of her scent. He even took it in greedily, and once his hands embraced her, they did not seem to want to let go anymore.
How long was she going to influence him for? All his reason and insistence seemed to crush easily when it came to her!
She was the one in distress right now, but why did he feel like he was the one utterly defeated? He even... abandoned his armor and surrendered?
He held her with his face buried deep in her shoulders as if to hold her forever.
Ling Yiran was stunned. 'Doesn’t he hate me? He hates me to the point of disdain, so why is he hugging me now?'
"I... can give you two million dollars." Finally, Yi Jinli's thin lips parted gently and a hoarse voice escaped his mouth. "I can also find better hospitals and doctors to treat Qin Lianyi. I can even pay for all of Qin Lianyi's treatment expenses."
Ling Yiran's eyes widened, and she could hardly believe what she heard.
'Did... Did he say... he'll save Lianyi?'
"Re-Really?" Her lips trembled as she choked, afraid that he was only giving her another glimmer of hope so that he could crush it again.
"If you can sacrifice everything for Qin Lianyi, then... let's get married," he murmured, never thinking that one day he would have to make such an offer just to marry her.
Ling Yiran stared blankly at Yi Jinli, finding everything so unreal. 'What did he say? Get married? He wants to marry me?'
"You want to... marry me?" she asked blankly.
"Aren't you willing to do anything for Qin Lianyi? Then it won't be difficult for you to marry me," he said nonchalantly.
