Lu Lan was in her thoughts that she didn't realise that someone had come inside her cabin.
"It seems that my wife is not happy by hearing the news that I have awakened" Si Li voice was echoed in the room.
Hearing a familiar voice, Lu Lan looked up. When she saw Si Li standing in front of him. She was stunned, she thought she was hallucinating, then she looked down again and try to focus on her work.
"It seems that you are really not happy" Si Li said it again with the disheartening tone when he saw that she ignored him.
"You are really here" Lu Lan immediately got up from her seat and strode towards him and touched his arms to confirm that he was really here.
"Umaa… why are you here?" After realising, Lu Lan widely opened her eyes and covered her mouth with both her hands.
Si Li narrowed his eyes and frowned.
"Because of you…. Fool" Si Li replied annoyingly.
Lu Lan retreated her hand back and lower her eyelashes "I-I'm sorry….".
"You should be," Si Li said coldly.
Lu Lan took a deep breath and said in a low voice "You were right, I should stay in Country M".
"Good then, Mu Che is standing outside and I have already made all arrangements for you to go back. You can leave now" Si Li said indifferently.
Lu Lan was stunned, she already prepared herself but now when Si Li didn't object her opinion and even without telling her, he already made the arrangements, her heart ached. Lu Lan tightened her fist and her nails were digging into her palm.
Lu Lan was still standing there in a daze.
"It seems that you don't want to go" Si Li saw she was still standing and her face was calm, but her eyes showed the sadness and slightly moistened.
He also knew that she didn't want to go but only for his sake, she was ready to do anything, even she didn't want to do so.
Lu Lan unhurriedly started to take step towards the door then she halted near the door and turned around and strode towards Si Li and started pounding his chest with her small fist and crying "How can you say to me to leave? Didn't I save you? How…How could you?"
Si Li laughed and teased her "Isn't it you who want to go?"
"No…No… I don't, but I don't want to see you like this. This was because of me, you are standing here" Lu Lan chocked as tears were falling from her eyes.
"Right. I am standing here ALIVE only because of you" Si Li replied calmly.
Lu Lan looked up to him as if she didn't understand what he just said.
"If it wasn't you who turned the car at the right time, do you still think I would be able to stand here? Lan, I have many enemies and I don't know how long I would be able to live, but whatever time is left, let's live together. If you leave me today, I am sure I wouldn't be able to live anymore". Si Li calmly said while his deep ocean like blue eyes showed tenderness.
"But I am not strong and I don't want to see you like this".
Si Li smiled and patted her head "Then, make yourself strong and protect me like you did that night".
Lu Lan immediately hugged him tightly and said in a rasped voice "I…I was so scared….I thought….you don't want to see me again…Please hubby… don't leave me…I love you…Hubby…Please don't sent me away."
Suddenly, Si Li's body was rigid when he heard 'I love you'. This was the word which he wanted to hear from so many years and now when he heard that he didn't know how to react.
Lu Lan saw that his body was stiffed and he didn't show any movement, a sadness appeared in her eyes.
"Hubby, don't you love me anymore?" Lu Lan's twinkling eyes saw him.
"W-what do you say?" Si Li stutteringly confirm again.
Lu Lan saw his reaction and understood that he was shocked by her sudden confession and thought to tease him back and nonchalantly said: "What did I say?"
Si Li narrowed his eyes "Fine, I think you should go back to Country M. Mu Che…".
Si Li was about to call Mu Che, but his words were cut-off suddenly by a kiss.
When Lu Lan saw his narrowed eyes and when he was about to call Mu Che, she didn't think anything to stop him except to kiss him.
It had been a long time since they hadn't kissed each other and therefore both of them didn't resist themselves.
Si Li pressed Lu Lan against the wall and both of them hungrily kissed each other. Si Li pushed his body towards her and even Lu Lan pulled him closer. No one wanted to leave this moment, soon she entered her tongue into his mouth and their tongues were intertwining with each other.
After a long time because of the lack of oxygen, both of them apart from each other. Both were panting heavily and their foreheads were touching each other. After regaining their senses, they were about to kiss again, then suddenly, Lu Lan felt something wet in her hand. Her hand were on his arms and when she saw her palm, there was blood.
Instantly, she was shocked and she looked up and panickedly said "Hubby…".
