Reborn as the Cinnabar Mole of the Prince of Beijing's Elite Circle

She started using her usual coquettish tone, saying she didn't like hospitals and didn't want to go there, that things would be fine as they were, and that maybe a rest would help.

All she wants now is to spend every moment with Xie Yu'an; she asks for nothing more.

Finally, Xie Yu'an couldn't resist An Cinian's insistence and went to bed with her, holding his beloved wife in his arms. It had been a long time since they had embraced so intimately.

"Wife, go to sleep. I will stay by your side."

He patted An Cinian on the back, just like he was coaxing a child.

And so, An Cinian slept soundly, without having to think about or worry about anything; just lying at home was enough.

In the darkness, Si Qiyan sat alone on the windowsill, curled up with his eyes closed.

In his dream, he saw An Cinian.

Qingqing, I've been thinking about you for so long. If you hadn't left, I would know that your youth and your adulthood will always be together. I also think that I would definitely look for you first, because your voice and appearance have never left my world.

I will wait for you forever, but now that I have you, your heart will never belong to me.

“Brother Ayan.”

In the dream, little Si Qing appeared in front of Si Qiyan, cute and chubby.

"Qingqing, Qingqing!"

Si Qiyan reached out to hug Si Qing, but instead passed through Si Qing's illusory image and hugged thin air.

She turned to look at Si Qing, who was still standing there, smiling brightly at her: "I thought you had come back to my side, but it was just a dream."

“Brother Ayan, you should let it go.”

Such a simple sentence, yet it weighed a ton on Si Qiyan's mind.

"Let go? Qingqing, don't you understand? My life is only happy when you are by my side. Without you, nothing can grow, and I have lost all meaning."

Si Qing shook her head, walked up to Si Qiyan, looked up at her own little head and shook her head: "Brother Ayan, it's not like that. Everyone has their own life. No matter what we've been through, we should live our own lives. Your life has countless possibilities. You're amazing now. An amazing Brother Ayan can do anything he wants. Brother Ayan, you always say you can't live without me, but that's not true. Have you ever thought that it's only because I'm the only one close to you in your world that you're willing to like me? Brother Ayan, everyone's personality is different. You need to feel with your heart. You'll find that there are many, many people in this world who love you very much."

Little Si Qing spoke clearly and deliberately, slowly explaining her current feelings to Si Qi Yan.

"But, but I can't feel it. I hate those people's hypocrisy. They're not as innocent as you. They're only with me because they want to be with me."

Si Qiyan shook his head and touched his heart.

This is an empty space, as desolate as an abyss. In the twenty-nine years he has met all sorts of people, but not a single one, not even for a moment, has lingered in his heart. They are just passersby in his life, coming and going in a hurry. No one is willing to truly stay and ask him what he wants, whether he is happy or unhappy.

“Brother Ayan, because your heart has never been opened, no matter how beautiful a pearl is, if the oyster is unwilling to open its shell, no one will discover its beauty. Brother Ayan, Qingqing will always be by your side. As your family, we believe in you. So, please believe in yourself, Brother Ayan, and try to open your heart to accept the kindness of others.”

As she spoke, at that moment, Si Qing embraced Si Qiyan from her dream; this was the bond between them.

"Then do I need to forget you?" Si Qiyan was reluctant; this feeling had accompanied him for most of his life, and he couldn't forget it.

Si Qing cupped Si Qiyan's face in her two small hands: "Brother Qiyan, let bygones be bygones. No matter what happened in the past, it's all in the past. Life is long, and we can't live with memories. Qingqing just hopes that you can embrace your new life, wake up and start afresh."

When the dream ended, Si Qiyan also woke up.

This time when he woke up, there was no emptiness. Now his Qingqing was willing to come into his dream, and she didn't blame him. She even hugged him and said comforting words to him.

Qingqing, I missed the best version of you. It was all my fault. And now, the only thing I can do for you is to leave you and let you embrace your happiness and freedom.

No matter what you do, I will support you unconditionally.

Qingqing, I'm sorry, but I will always love you and protect you. If Xie Yu'an dares to bully you, I will definitely make him suffer!

After returning home and resting, An Cinian let everyone around her know that she was safe, so that they wouldn't worry about her personal safety.

"Come here, my darling wife."

Lin Shu missed An Cinian, whom she hadn't seen for a long time. She had heard about it yesterday at the Si family's house, and when she returned, Xie Yu'an had already brought An Cinian back to the bedroom.

Knowing that An Cinian needed to rest, he didn't want to disturb her. Now he couldn't wait any longer. He immediately got up, took An Cinian's hand, and made her sit next to him. Then, he carefully looked her over from all sides. Seeing that she was not injured, his heart finally settled down.

"Mom, I'm okay."

The moment she got home safely, she should have told everyone so they wouldn't worry, but she was too tired yesterday and didn't want to say anything.

Just after she got up, she suddenly felt that she could hear completely again, so she hurriedly washed up and went downstairs with Xie Yu'an.

"Xiao Nian, look how thin you've become! You've really suffered!"

Shu Yunji didn't care at all. She pouted, looking as aggrieved as could be. Anyone who didn't know better would think that Shu Yunji was the one who was wronged.

An Cinian sat down next to Xie Yu'an and smiled: "I'm sorry to have worried everyone, but don't worry, Si Qiyan didn't do anything to me. I was just throwing a tantrum and refusing to eat because I wanted to leave."

This really can't be blamed on Si Qiyan. He provided her with good food and drink every day. It was just that she wanted to leave and came up with a plan to force Si Qiyan to let her go.

Hearing An Cinian's words of comfort, Shu Yunji still disliked Si Qiyan. If it weren't for this person, they wouldn't be like this.

"Alright, don't worry, I'll take good care of my wife." Xie Yu'an, who was half-hugging An Cinian, was a little jealous and impatient. He interrupted them and assured them.

After waking up, An Cinian kept thinking about these people and kept greeting them. They didn't even care about him. He was very anxious about it. He was frowning every day, unable to eat or sleep.

"Okay, okay, I know my husband hates seeing me sad. I love you so much. You're such a jealous person, aren't you?"

Seeing Xie Yu'an's sullen face, An Cinian reached out and pinched his nose. This guy hadn't changed at all; he was still a jealous old man. He was jealous over such a small thing. How much would she have to swallow... well, probably, she'd have to drink jar after jar of vinegar.

Xie Yu'an didn't care; now that his wife was back, all his thoughts were definitely on her.

This time, Shu Yunji didn't argue with Xie Yu'an. After all, they had both seen it over the past few months: with An Cinian gone, Xie Yu'an was constantly worried and anxious.

"Xiao Nian, what you need to do most right now is to eat well and rest well, okay?"
