Shancai Rebirth: My Choice

Lei opened his eyes wide, why was she so abnormal today? Why did she suddenly say such a thing?

"I will never bother you when you ignore me. If you ignore me, I will slowly ignore you. If I can get used to having you, then I can also get used to not having you. If you cherish me, I will return you double. If you don't take me seriously, then let everything go back to zero."

"I treat you sincerely, and I hope you do the same." Shan Lai said word by word. She just wanted to finish what she wanted to say and make the interests involved clear. She didn't want the two of them to be embarrassed in the future.

Lei's expression turned serious. "I'll say it again, for the last time."

"Deng and Shanlai, listen carefully. I will never cheat on you in my life, nor will I do anything to let you down. You are my only wife, and you are my only one."

"I love you, you know."

"I know." Shan Lai closed her eyes slightly and answered him calmly.

The two didn't say anything else and just stayed there quietly.

"Shanlai?" Lei called her cautiously, but she did not answer.

When he lowered his eyes, he found that she was sleeping with her eyes closed. She seemed to be sleeping very uneasily. His brows were slightly frowned. He gently stroked her eyebrows, sighed, gently picked her up and walked towards the bedroom.

He gently put her on the bed and covered her with the quilt, then kissed her forehead lightly. Thinking that they had just got off the plane and were called back home by their mother, and that she had not eaten anything for lunch, he tiptoed out of the bedroom to prepare dinner.

The moment the door closed, Shanlai slowly opened his eyes.

I hope we won't let each other down.

……

She was fiddling with the flowers on the table out of boredom, rubbing her chin with her hand while waiting for Huo Yan. When Shan Lai got tired of waiting, Huo Yan finally came.

He was wearing casual clothes today, a baseball cap, and a white backpack, looking like a pure and innocent male college student.

Shan Lai just glanced at it, just a glance, slowly lowered his head, took the coffee next to him and took a sip.

"Sister." Huo Yan smiled, revealing his little fangs.

She hadn't seen Huo Yan for a long time. At first glance, he seemed to have changed a lot. He no longer had the cynical look he used to have, and gave people a feeling that he had become more stable.

It seemed that he did not attend her wedding with Lei on the day, because she did not see him. Instead, Huo Guangwei sent a gift to congratulate them on their marriage, and his eyes were always on her. That's right, it seemed that his son Huo Ting went in because of her.

"Yeah." This was the first time Shan Lai directly responded to Huo Yan's address.

Huo Yan was not calm. The sun really rose from the west. He hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Sister, why did you suddenly agree to my request?"

"Nothing, I just think it's just a name." Shan Lai shook her head. She was married now, so there wouldn't be anyone who would have any thoughts about a married woman like her. She didn't think she had the charm to make people miss her.

Huo Yan chuckled, "Sister, are you happy in your married life?" He stared at her with burning eyes.

Shan Lai was not at all shy when talking about this, "It's fine. Both my parents-in-law and my husband are very good to me. It's just that there are a few more people spoiling me. It's no different from before." She was telling the truth.

Hearing Shan Lai say this, Huo Yan's eyes dimmed. She was talking about "my husband". Although he had known it for a long time, when he actually heard these words from his sister's mouth, he had an indescribable feeling in his heart, which was just blocked.

But she is already married, and the temperament she exudes is quite different from before. Before she got married, she was bright and flamboyant, with a pure girlish aura. After she got married, she exudes the charm of a young woman.

After all, she and Huaze Rui had already obtained a marriage certificate, but they just got married later. What should have been done had already been done, and he should have let it go long ago.

"By the way, is there something you want me to do?" Shan Lai remembered the real purpose of her coming here, so she asked this question.

Huo Yan took a sip of coffee and said, "Sister, I will be taking over Huo Ting's position soon." The coffee was added with milk and sugar, but he still felt it tasted bitter.

Shan Lai was stunned. To take over Huo Ting's position? Does that mean to replace Huo Ting and become the next heir of the Huo family?

"I originally wanted to be a small artist under Nadel, and then rely on my own looks and talent to step by step reach the most dazzling position." He said lightly, without much emotional ups and downs, but his eyes were always fixed on Shanlai.

"In that case, as long as sister opens the entertainment headlines, there is a high chance that she will see me." He smiled with his eyes curved. "Although sister is married, I still like you very much. If you are not happy one day, just call me and I will take you away." He said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

This was the first time that Shan Lai carefully examined the boy from years ago. He seemed to be helpless. If she remembered correctly, Huo Yan had two older sisters. Huo Guangwei's line originally had a Huo Cheng, but Huo Cheng killed himself, and another Huo Ting had also been imprisoned.

It seems that the most suitable successor to the Huo family now is no one other than Huo Yan, so has Huo Guangwei set his sights on him?

But according to her observation, Huo Yan did not seem to be a person who was keen on official struggles. He lived a free and easy life and had his own persistence and ideals. For a moment, she still couldn't understand why he was involved in these messy things.

"It's okay. It's good to be the heir of the Huo family. If anything happens in the future, I can protect you in my own way." Huo Yan smiled and took another big sip of coffee.

His father is an artist. As far as he can remember, his father seemed to be very busy. Every day he was either busy fiddling with his artworks or participating in auctions everywhere, and he had little time to take care of him.

His two elder sisters were also sent abroad early. His mother only knew how to shop. Sometimes she would go on trips with her sisters and stay away from home for several days. He lived alone in a villa without any human touch. Every day, he was accompanied by a large group of silent servants. During festivals and his birthday, he would use the cards his parents gave him, all kinds of credit cards. To him, such days didn't seem special.

Because no one talked to him and he didn't want to talk to others, he gradually developed a taciturn character. No matter what others said, he would not argue. Sometimes he even felt troubled when he was ridiculed and scolded by others, so he was unwilling to speak to them and let them do whatever they wanted.

Once when he was bullied and was about to fight back, a little girl ran out to protect him. It was at that moment that he suddenly felt that it was not bad to speak up.
