After Lin Yifan mentioned it, An Qi remembered the matter. Now, she was someone betrothed under a contract, precisely a person restricted by a marriage contract. Although the marital transaction stipulated in the contract was not legally recognized, she still had to pay back the five billion borrowed from the Zhao Family, or else her family would have to sell their assets to cover the debt; and if they still couldn't pay it off, she might end up in jail. She wouldn't mind going to jail, but her sick father and elderly mother needed care; hence she couldn't abandon them; that's why she had never dared to confess to Lin Yifan, fearing that her eventual refusal would hurt him.
However, secrets can't be hidden forever; each rescue, each touch, each spark of emotion deepened her love for Lin Yifan, until this time she couldn't hold back anymore. Even if they couldn't be together in the future, she wanted to love passionately at least once without any regrets.
