On the day of graduation, I was dragged by my rich father to get the certificate

"Some... fragments." Gu Wan nodded gently, "Yunyuan... balcony garden... your favorite... noodle soup..."

Si Yehan's breathing became rapid. He leaned over and gently rested his forehead on their clasped hands, his shoulders trembling slightly. "Great... I'm already very satisfied to be able to remember these..." His voice was muffled, and he asked expectantly: "Then tell me, who am I?"

"You are..." This question was like a key, opening a locked door in Gu Wan's heart. In the dark basement, when Jin Ling's men tortured her, when death was imminent, what she regretted most was not that she could not recover all her memories, but that she could not tell Si Yehan how much she loved him, and that she could not truly become his woman.

You are the one I will love until I die.

An unprecedented courage surged in his heart. Gu Wan raised his other hand with all his strength, tremblingly stroked Si Yehan's cheek, and wiped away his tears.

"Ye Han... don't cry... stop and wait for me... now it's my turn to love you, you just have to enjoy this pursuit." She said word by word, watching his eyes widen in shock, "In... that basement... I thought... I was going to die... The thing I regret most... is that I couldn't sleep with you..."

Si Yehan's expression froze, as if he couldn't believe what he heard. A faint blush appeared on Gu Wan's pale face, but she didn't look away.

"I may not remember it completely..." She continued, each word took a lot of effort, but she had to finish, "but I know... I love you... from the past... to now... I don't want to miss it again..."

Si Yehan's breathing became heavy. He carefully held her face, as if he was treating the most precious treasure in the world. "Wanwan, do you know what you are saying? You... are still very weak..."

"Kiss me..." Gu Wan asked softly, with a determined light in his eyes, "before I... pass out again..."

Si Yehan's eyes flashed with struggle, but he couldn't resist her request. He slowly lowered his head and gently pressed his lips against hers, an extremely gentle kiss, filled with endless cherishment and restraint.

When their lips parted, Gu Wan had used up all her strength and her eyelids began to feel heavy, but she still tried to keep smiling.

"Wait until I feel better..." She promised weakly, "I must...sleep..."

Si Yehan made a sound somewhere between laughter and sobbing, and gently laid her back on the pillow. "I'll wait." He whispered back, stroking her lips with his thumb, "Now rest well."

Gu Wan wanted to respond, but the darkness came again, this time it was a warm, safe darkness, because she knew that when she woke up again, he would be here waiting for her. And this time, she would not hide her feelings anymore.

In the last moment before she fell into a deep sleep, she felt Si Yehan's lips gently press against her forehead, and he whispered in a low voice: "I will never let you fall into danger again, I swear."

A week later, the smell of disinfectant from the hospital finally faded from Gu Wan's life. She stood in front of the French window, looking at the bright sunshine outside, and stretched. The scratches on her body had scabbed and fallen off, leaving only a faint pink mark.

"Ms. Gu Wan, Mr. Lou Yue's medical report is out. He has passed the critical period and all indicators are stable." Agent Xiao Lin pushed the door open with a stack of documents in his hand, "But the doctor said he has to stay in the hospital for a while."

Gu Wan turned around and showed the first sincere smile in these days: "That's great, he was injured because of me. If I hadn't remembered some memories about Yunyuan and asked him to accompany me, he wouldn't... Fortunately, he is fine, otherwise I will never forgive myself for the rest of my life."

"You can't be blamed for this. If you want to blame someone, blame that damn crazy woman Jin Ling."

Gu Wan walked to the sofa and sat down, picked up her phone and swiped the screen. The invitation to Paris Fashion Week was still lying quietly in her mailbox, and the reply deadline had passed.

“In Paris…”

"I've contacted them, and they expressed their understanding and said that we can work together again next time." Xiao Lin handed over a cup of warm honey water, "Now you can have a good rest."

Gu Wan took a sip of honey water, and the sweetness spread on the tip of his tongue.

Rest? She didn't think so.

Ever since that day when Si Yehan rescued her from Jin Ling, she already knew what she was going to do next.

"When will Si Yehan come today?" Gu Wan suddenly asked.

During the days that Gu Wan was in the hospital, Si Yehan came over every day and never missed a visit, no matter how busy or late it was.

"Assistant Wu just called and said that Mr. Si is on his way and asked you to wait here for him to pick you up from the hospital."

"So fast! It's too late, Xiaolin. We have to go now." Gu Wan put down the cup, a cunning light flashing in her eyes. She was finally going to eat the "swan meat" that she had been thinking about for so long.

Xiao Lin looked embarrassed: "But, Mr. Si and his team are coming soon! How about we wait a little longer..."

"That's why we have to leave right away." Gu Wan stood up and hurried out of the ward.

"Ms. Gu Wan, wait for me." Xiao Lin was confused, but he still ran out after her. "Where are we going?"

In a flash, the two arrived at the VIP room that Yueyin specially prepared for Gu Wan, who was quickly becoming popular.

Gu Wan rushed into the cloakroom as soon as she entered the door. Her fingers slid over each piece of clothing, finally stopping on a burgundy velvet dress.

This was a runway piece for a luxury brand at Milan Fashion Week last week. It was well-cut, neither too formal nor too tight, and it perfectly outlined her figure.

“This one.” She took out the skirt and compared it to the mirror, “Pair it with the black stilettos from Jimmy Choo.”

Xiao Lin stared at Gu Wan's sudden glow in amazement: "Wan Wan, you don't want to..."

"Can your reaction time be longer?" Gu Wan raised an eyebrow and said with disdain.

“Hehe…” Xiao Lin smiled.

"Call Assistant Wu and tell him to meet at the 'Yunding' restaurant in Tian Shang Ren Jian at 7pm."

"Got it! I guarantee to complete the task!"

As night fell and the lights came on, Gu Wan stood in front of the French window of the "Heaven on Earth" Cloud Top Restaurant, overlooking the lights of the entire city that were as bright as the stars.

Her slender fingers unconsciously stroked the velvet box in her pocket, and her heart beat so fast that it almost jumped out of her chest.

"Ms. Gu, everything is prepared according to your requirements." The restaurant manager walked over respectfully and said in a low voice.
