It's terrible. Mr. Lu is too clingy.

I wasn't very interested in it at first, so I didn't continue after finishing it once.

It was still broad daylight and sleep was impossible, so the two of them just huddled together in bed.

Lu Ci also hugged her waist with both hands, buried his head in her chest, sniffed occasionally, and otherwise remained silent, as if in a trance.

Xie Xingran stroked his hair again and again, his eyes full of tenderness and care.

The atmosphere was warm and quiet for a moment, and the strong wind and heavy snow outside the house howled, making the windows creak.

This movement drew Lu Ci's mind back to its empty state, and he held her hand tightly.

After a moment, he bit his lip and said, "Wife, do you think I'm quite... quite careless? It seems that people who have experienced this kind of thing are not as calm as me and still live a carefree life."

After the incident, the company came back to life under the management of that pedophile without waiting for the investment, and even reached a higher level than before. Many people fawned over him just to cooperate with him, Lu.

This made Lu Ci's self-proclaimed "sacrifice" look ridiculous.

At that time, he cursed the fate that had played tricks on him in his dreams at midnight, and beat himself in a self-abuse manner, and regret almost overwhelmed him.

But what can be done?

Even at this point, he was never one to be weak and incompetent, or to dwell on regrets.

He was taught from a young age that if the path he chose was wrong, he would have to bear the consequences himself.

So he secretly used his family connections to collect evidence of the pedophile's crimes over the years and sent him to prison. At the same time, he threatened him with his son and told him not to add him to the list of victims.

At this time, there was no need for him to sacrifice his reputation to seek the so-called justice that belonged to him.

He just needs to make sure that the man will be "taken care of" in prison and will not die unexpectedly in prison.

In addition to his reputation, the more important point is that his father had just passed away, and he didn't want his family, especially his mother, to be sad and blame themselves for his own mistakes.

Two years later, after the man died, he gradually came out of the shadow, but he could not overcome some stress reactions.

He is unwilling to make friends, neither male nor female, and he cannot accept close contact with people outside his family.

He had always been a day student during his school days and never lived in a boarding school. Even after he started working, the assistants he hired had to be married.

Later, when he exchanged bodies with Xie Xingran, he did not reject it because he always felt in his heart that his body was dirty.

So changing his body, without her memory, and starting a new journey made him feel more like a new life.

He was able to quickly fall in love with Xie Xingran in just a short time of getting along. In addition to her personal charm, he also wanted to use this to "like" her body.

Because he is an extremely contradictory person.

I feel that my body is dirty, but I always reject this idea and force myself to like this body.

After the exchange, he became addicted to the feeling of openly liking himself with the help of external forces.

But as they got to know each other better, he realized that even if they hadn't exchanged, he would still like Xie Xingran.

Because they are equally entangled, equally contradictory, and equally - love themselves too.

There is mutual understanding and mutual redemption between them.

At this moment, after hearing his words, Xie Xingran held his face and said seriously:

"This isn't being careless, Lu Ciye. You should live a better life and let people know that crime ruins the perpetrator's life, not the victim's.

The body can be saved by others, but the soul trapped in the abyss can only be reborn by breaking the cage by itself.

So Lu Ciye, you have already saved yourself, so don't feel inferior and afraid because of me. I hope,

I should be your strong backing, your solid armor, not a shackle or a weak point of compromise."

Her words shook his soul, and Lu Ci's pupils dilated, as if countless stars were filled in them.

Seeing him like this, Xie Xingran smiled, walked up to him, kissed his lips, stroked his face and said:

"Lu Ciye, you must always be proud and bright. That's how I love you."

Lu Ciye's Adam's apple rolled twice. He blinked his moist starry eyes, supported himself with both hands, and kissed her lips passionately, tossing and turning.

During the pause, he leaned against her forehead and said sincerely:

"Xie Xingran, if it were you, I would be willing to put on shackles for you and compromise everything for you."

Xie Xingran gently knocked his head away, raised an eyebrow and said lazily: "Aren't you afraid that I will let you down?"

Lu Ci also shook his head firmly, but it didn't mean he wasn't afraid. Instead, he said with certainty: "You won't. Wife, I believe that we will not let each other down."
