Chapter 38 Getting Married With a Child

n his arms, tightened her hand, and comforted her gently: "It's okay, it was just a dream... everything is fine now..."“Mm.” Under Li An’s gentle soothing, Yan Luoxi gradually calmed down. She subcons...Chapter 38: Marrying While Holding a Child

Yan Luoxi looked up at Li An. The happy smile on her face when she was holding the child had vanished, and she asked coldly, "You haven't left yet"

Li An's good mood was completely ruined by Yan Luoxi's question. Without any regard for anything else, he sat abruptly at the edge of Yan Luoxi’s bed, puffing up and saying, "My daughter is here; where am I supposed to go Why should I leave"

"What do you mean Are you implying that you will always follow your daughter like a shadow and never leave this place Yan Luoxi looked at Li An in disbelief.

Li An was not usually a patient person, but he would endure things when facing Yan Luoxi. However, there were times when he couldn’t hold back. Now, he had decided to be unyielding. He suddenly raised his head and stared directly into Yan Luoxi’s eyes: "Yes, I will follow my daughter and you wherever you go. For the rest of your life, you are destined to be bound to me. If you choose to forgive me, our family of three can live happily together from now on. Even if you don't forgive me, we will still live as a family of three. Whether it’s comfortable or happy is something only you know."

When Yan Luoxi saw that Li An was about to play the part of an unreasonable man again, she felt extremely annoyed and wanted to scold him, but all the words worth saying had already been said before. She simply lifted her leg and kicked Li An hard; Li An, feeling guilty originally, had only sat at one end of Yan Luoxi’s bed which was covered with smooth bedding. Unprepared for Yan Luoxi's kick, his body slid out, making him fall awkwardly to the ground.

When Li An's bottom hit the ground, his face turned red immediately. When had he ever received such treatment from a woman before He felt somewhat embarrassed and ashamed, but seeing Yan Luoxi’s face made him feel that all of it was what he deserved.

Lian took a deep breath and swallowed his frustration. He sat on the carpeted floor, unwilling to get up. His thick hair was slightly disheveled, and he frowned prettily, with sunken eyes that conveyed his exhaustion. His dark eyes, like an endless abyss under the night sky, curved at the corners in infinite委屈.

Formerly, Lian had been full of confidence and charisma, proud and capricious.

Yan Luoxi bit her lip; she knew that what she did was a bit too much.

She was a woman with a soft heart who couldn't bear when others were kind to her. She preferred being slightly let down by others rather than owing them too much.

In Yan Luoxi's heart, the pain caused by Lian’s past actions made it impossible for her to forgive him; however, she still remembered his kindness towards her and the life-saving act when the car had plunged off the mountain.

Especially in these days, the preterm labor triggered by her accidental fall added immense pressure and fear to her pregnancy. Lian's constant companionship truly gave her a sense of reliance and support.

This kindness diluted some of Yan Luoxi’s resentment towards Lian and made her more tolerant of his domineering behavior recently. When she had time, she would reflect on her own mistakes during the incident that caused him pain. If she had been more honest and brave back then, not lying to Lian or giving him such a strong sense of insecurity, they wouldn't have reached this point.

Seeing Lian sitting quietly on the floor, Yan Luoxi knew that his current humility was as low as he could possibly go given his personality.

Her softened heart wavered a bit. If not for her stubborn insistence and insecurity, which she reinforced daily with the belief that "I won't go back," she might have already compromised.

"What are you still sitting on the ground for Get up quickly!" Yan Luoxi glared at Li An reproachfully, though her voice was much softer.

"Didn’t you tell me to sit here Now you want me to get up. Yan Luoxi, tell me, what should I do to make you satisfied What should I do to earn your forgiveness"

Li An's eyes showed a childlike grievance. This look reminded Yan Luoxi of the little girl lying in bed; the young girl had grown increasingly beautiful these days, just as Li An said, resembling him with his same eyes.

Yan Luoxi was more emotional than rational. Upon realizing that the girl and Li An shared similar eyes, she began to extend her affection towards him by association. Her wholehearted love for the little girl made her overlook Li An's mistakes and offenses, making everything seem less distinct.

"Get up quickly before people come in and think I've done something to you." Unconsciously, Yan Luoxi pouted cutely.

In this moment, it felt as if Li An’s entire world lit up. He had watched Yan Luoxi grow since childhood; he knew her disposition, temperament, and mood like the back of his hand. At that moment, he was sure that Yan Luoxi wasn't truly angry with him anymore.

He leaped excitedly from the ground, hopping to Yan Luoxi's side and said with a smile, "Luoxi, I'll listen to you in everything from now on. Can you slowly start forgiving me"

Yan Luoxi's mood improved slightly, and she gave a noncommittal hum.

Lǐ n saw hope on the horizon. His heart felt like two doors had opened, and he rubbed his hands in delight. Looking at the little girl in the crib, he said with satisfaction, "Baby, hurry up and make Mom happy. Once Mom forgives Dad, we can go home.

When we get back home, Dad can carry you around to meet lots of people and make your uncles and aunts jealous—especially that unreliable Uncle Míng who is old but still doesn't have a girlfriend or children.

Dad and Mom will hold you when we get married. Let's show everyone the special wedding..."

When Lǐ n mentioned "getting married," Yan Luoxi's heart trembled heavily, and this uncomfortable feeling quickly spread throughout her body with the flow of blood.

Yan Luoxi understood that some wounds, even if you try to ignore them and pretend they don't exist, still hurt when they are suddenly exposed.

The slight happiness she had felt just now vanished again. She turned around to look out the window at the setting sun and said indifferently, "Lǐ n, let's discuss how you can spend time with the child in the future. Your frequent comings and goings from my home are causing significant inconvenience for me and my family."

Still basking in his own joy, Lǐ n hadn't noticed that things had changed behind him. Hearing Yan Luoxi's cold voice, he quickly turned to look at her with some surprise. An still managed to effortlessly cradle her in his arms.“Mm, what are you doing Li An, let me go quickly!” Yan Luoxi became frightened and struggled urgently.Li An held her tightly, stroking her hair...
