I owe you a lifetime of love

"Once upon a time, we had a three-year marriage... At that time, I was worn out with arrogance, and I even felt inferior and cowardly."

"Formidable as Fu Qingshen, he stood at the peak, and I looked up to him. In those three years, I followed his footsteps like crazy, longing for the day when he and I stood together as equals."

"But, I didn't succeed. In the end, I was completely defeated by Shen Yuxi. I'm so tired..."

"Xu Yicheng, it's really tiring to follow in someone's footsteps. For nine years, I'm about to lose myself."

The girl's shoulders trembled, she sat on the floor with her knees bent, her head buried in her arms, wrapping herself up in such a fragile and pitiful way.

She seemed to be begging God for mercy.

At this moment, she is lonely but also strong; she is cowardly but also brave.

She was so lonely that she never told anyone about the hardships of these years, but she was strong enough to walk alone for so many years.

She was too cowardly to face Fu Qingshen, yet she bravely followed him for nine years!

Xu Yicheng was shocked by An Nian's strong emotions.

He seemed to finally understand a little bit about that year abroad.

When An Nian remembered the past, it was a year of wandering overseas.

She works from dawn to dusk for sketches, she is almost crazy and wants to break her body and usually works several jobs a day.

She didn't finish college.

But overseas, she applied for many design classes.

That year was a brilliant and outstanding year for her.

She has won many awards and has been praised by many lecturers.

Those lecturers often say that she is very talented and a good candidate for design.

But no one knew that An Nian had spent countless times of hard work in exchange for it.

She is strong and independent.

Even though she knew that Xu Yicheng was financially independent and had a rich family background, she never coveted him at the most difficult time.

Because of her family's decline, life has undergone earth-shaking changes. Compared with many people in the world, she lost at the starting line, but she never complained about the injustice of fate.

She smiled lightly, accepting all the trials and tribulations that fate brought her...

But now, she was easily defeated.

It's not the dark predicament in front of me, it's just because of Fu Qingshen.

She wants to become stronger, and she wants to stand at the top with Fu Qingshen, so she can't bear the great changes that are invisible to the eyes.

She began to lose confidence, she began to have no hope for the future.

This is a terrible truth.

Xu Yicheng suddenly became frightened, he wanted to see that smiling Anian always with his chin slightly raised and arrogant.

He didn't want to see such decadence, just like the poor woman with red circles around her eyes like a porcelain doll who was flustered when he took off the bracelet two years ago and saw the scar on her wrist.

he can not!
He couldn't see her like that!

Xu Yicheng trembled slightly: "Annian! Get up, get up! There is nothing difficult in this world, as long as there is still a glimmer of hope, I will not allow you to be knocked down!"

She refused, she shook her head and shrank into the corner in resistance.

But it was the first time that Xu Yicheng was so stubborn, using almost rough methods to help him up.

"Where are your documents? Where are your documents? An Nian, I will take you abroad, and then we will go to country M to find the doctor from back then. We will visit the whole country!"

"I don't believe it, I don't believe you will be like this!"

"It won't get better..." An Nian cried hoarsely and shook his head, "It won't get better Xu Yicheng!"

"I don't allow you to say such things! An Nian, I don't allow it!"

An Nian stood up straight, because she couldn't see, she didn't even know where to put her hands and feet.

She just stood in the corner so pitifully.

Xu Yicheng's heart fluctuated violently, he was emotional, he took a deep breath, and finally asked in a negotiating tone: "Country M, do you want to go?"

An Nian closed his eyes and pondered for a moment: "You're right, I can't be defeated! I've been on this road for nine years, and I haven't given up yet. Why should I let go at the end?"

"Xu Yicheng...I..." An Nian raised his hands, rubbing those helpless hands in the cold air.

Xu Yicheng handed her his arm in distress.

An Nian sniffed, looking pitifully like a little tabby cat that was discarded.

"I...I owe you a lot..."

"Fool..." Xu Yicheng murmured softly, he raised his hand and patted her forehead mercilessly, "I, Xu Yicheng, have few friends in my life, and you are the best one."

"You don't need to be polite between friends. Besides, the more you owe me, the more you will pay back in the end..."

An Nian sobbed softly: "But I can't do anything now..."

"What do you think I'm missing?" He teased her with a smile.

An Nian's head was like a paste, but she still thought about this question for a while and then shook her head: "I don't know."

"Lack of a home..." Xu Yicheng stared at An Nian with amorous peach blossom eyes, "Why don't you introduce your best friend to me?"

"Lu Jingsi?"

Xu Yicheng raised his eyebrows and smiled: "It's a beautiful woman."

"No." An Nian frowned and shook her head embarrassingly, "She's already married."

"Is that so..." He already knew that Lu Jingsi was married.

"Where's Xia Qing?" An Nian became faintly excited, "I remember that your family and Xia's family are still old friends. I heard Xia Qing say that you two have baby relatives."

"That eldest lady..." Speaking of Xia Qing, Xu Yicheng's voice was full of disgust, "It's not bad if you don't hang me up, and you will start a family with her."

An Young smiled: "Xu Yicheng, don't talk about girls like that."

"I'm just kidding." Xu Yicheng said, "Girls are the cutest creatures in the world."

An Nian nodded in agreement.

Xu Yicheng helped An Nian to the sofa: "It's noon."

An Nian lowered his eyelids: "Did you pack the claypot rice?"

"A dog's nose is so good." Xu Yicheng said as he opened the lunch box.

"I feed you."

"I want to eat by myself." An Nian stretched out his hand along the side of the voice, "I don't know how long this situation will last. Do you want to let you take care of me all the time?"

"Xu Yicheng, you are almost becoming an old mother."

A joke interspersed with a serious topic.

He is happy to be this old lady.

Xu Yicheng took An Nian's hand and handed her the spoon, and put the tableware in front of her.

He grabbed her hand and fed her a few mouthfuls just like that.

"Can you?"

"No problem." The trough period has passed, and she said it very easily.

As if to reassure him, she even slowly scooped up a spoonful of rice and fed it into her mouth.

"My previous house was withdrawn due to the fire, so I have always lived in Shengshihaoting."

"My luggage and documents are also there. Xu Yicheng, I need to trouble you to make a trip. In the bedroom on the second floor, in the third drawer of the third row of cabinets on the left."

Xu Yicheng smiled faintly: "No problem."

An Nian gave Xu Yicheng Song Chao's phone number.

"Call this number, Assistant Song will take you there."

Fu Qingshen didn't care about work.

He seemed to have returned to the time when he was in a daze two years ago.

In the new week, he was lying on the sofa and looking at An Nian's picture album.

He flipped through these picture albums back and forth, but he didn't feel tired of them, and even the corners of his mouth slightly twitched every time he opened them.

For a brief moment, he forgot the fact that An Nian was not in the prosperous family.

He was watching intently, when suddenly there was the sound of a car engine outside the door.

Song Chao brought Xu Yicheng to the prosperous palace...
