Because I no longer have any close relatives in this world, he feels particularly sorry for me and is very accommodating. He is afraid that I might suffer even the slightest grievance, worried that I might feel even a bit unhappy.
On the day we confirmed our relationship, Li Yunfan formally introduced me to his family and friends. I didn’t know if it was a coincidence or something else, but when he introduced me to his younger siblings, he said something I found very familiar.
“From now on, when you see Xia Lanlan, don’t call her anything else; she is your legitimate sister-in-law.”
The girl who came with him to the Ye Family banquet that day smiled at us.
“Sister-in-law, I knew Yun Fan liked you!”
I felt a bit shy and surprised; I had previously doubted their relationship.
“The moment we walked in, Yun Fan’s eyes were glued to you.”
Li Jia laughed as she wrapped her arms around mine.
“But sister-in-law is really beautiful; I like you too!”
I couldn’t help but turn back to look at him.
Heaven is truly fair; what you lose will always be compensated in some way on another day.
“What are you looking at?”
He reached out to touch the top of my head, his eyes filled with a mix of helplessness and affection.
“Your eyes are going to pop out.”
“How can you be so good-looking?”
I clung to his arm and couldn’t help but sigh softly.
In that moment, it felt like I had returned to my carefree girlhood.
Li Yunfan looked at me with a hint of restraint.
“A person as beautiful as you will always be mine from now on. Are you happy?”
I was certainly happy. Taking advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention, I tiptoed and secretly kissed his chin.
He cleared his throat softly, and the tips of his fingers holding mine grew warmer, gradually becoming hot.
"Don't rush; it's not dark yet," he whispered to me.
But I held onto his hand, pulling him out of the hall and running to the end of an empty corridor.
"Xia Lanlan..."
He grasped my hand, urging me to slow down.
Bathed in the moonlight, I admired his handsome features. Unable to resist, I raised my hand to cup his face.
"Doctor Li..."
"It seems my issue with hyperplasia hasn't been resolved; it’s hurting a bit again tonight. Would you like to give me a check-up?"
My fingers slowly slid down along his chest to his fingertips. Then I grasped them gently, lifting his hand and pressing it against my heart, holding it tightly.
"Doctor Li's medicine doesn't seem to be working."
"Then how about we try a different approach? I've heard that having the patient's husband perform some appropriate massages can relieve pain..."
As he spoke, he lowered his head, and the moonlight enveloped us completely.
Li Yunfan kissed me, our fingers intertwined tightly.
"Xia Lanlan..."
"Mm..."
I felt dizzy from his kiss.
"I mentioned before that I had a girl I liked."
"Mm?"
I instinctively widened my eyes, ready to push him away.
“She once fell asleep in the library, right in front of me.”
He said this while gazing at me with gentle eyes, a hint of laughter in his voice.
“I watched her sleep for a long time.”
“When it was time to leave, I woke her up and pointed to her book.”
“I left my phone number in that book.”
“But she never saw it.”
“Li Yunfan…”
I was stunned. At that moment, I was too embarrassed about him catching me drooling to pay attention to the book he pointed at.
How could I have noticed?
“However, it’s good that it’s not too late. What’s meant to be mine will eventually be mine.”
He held me tightly and whispered in my ear, “Xia Lanlan, you are the most important thing I’ve regained.”
