"Am I really more important to you than a child?" she asked cautiously.
Si Ye nodded with a smile, his gaze sincere. In fact, she was more important than his own life—for her, he would do anything.
As long as she loved him.
All he wanted was for her to love him, just having her by his side was enough...
"Really, you're not lying to me?" Chen Zhi asked excitedly.
"It's true, don't doubt it anymore." Her cautiousness made his heart ache somewhat.
It must be because he had given her too little love that she felt so insecure and was reluctant to believe what he said.
Chen Zhi, overwhelmed with joy, couldn't help but throw herself into his arms and hug him tightly.
With Si Ye's words, she no longer needed to worry or fear anything, no longer needed to be uncertain about his feelings for her, nor fear the day they might part.
Si Ye held her in his arms with a smile, gently patting her back without a word.
