"Didn't lie?" He sneered. "If you didn't lie, does that mean you still have me in your heart? Do you still love me? You never got over me, have you?"
"Yes," she replied.
The sarcasm at the corners of his lips grew thicker. "Then why don't you prove to me that you have me in your heart, that you love me, and that you never got over me? What do you think?"
Ling Yiran stared blankly at the man in front of her. What Gu Lichen said after taking her to the mansion made her realize she had always been in love with the man in front of her.
Even after Gu Lichen talked about missing and never missing, she figured she would still fall in love with Yi Jinli regardless.
What she felt for Gu Lichen was limited to their childhood friendship and gratitude for saving her life. She was also touched, but... it was not love.
She was willing to swear to stay with Jin for the rest of her life. It was not just for the children but probably for herself too.
If she did not love him, then maybe she would not have any expectations for her future marriage and would not have firmly said that she had never fallen for Gu Lichen when he asked her those ‘what ifs’.
What woman would not fall for a man like Gu Lichen who would even give his life to save theirs?
The only reason she did not fall for him was that another man had already occupied her heart.
Ling Yiran raised her hand and gently held Yi Jinli's face. The look in her eyes seemed like she had made up her mind. Her head slightly closed in the space between them, and she pressed her lips on his.
