Chapter 399
“Yes . ” Su Qianci walked in and took off her jacket . Getting in the bed, she wrapped her arms around his neck . “Why are you awake?”
Li Sicheng turned around and embraced her, asking, “What did you say?”
“I thanked him, apologized, gave him our phone numbers, and then came back . “
“Okay . ” Feeling her forehead, he checked the time . “Are you hungry? Shall we eat something?”
“Not really . I don’t have an appetite . “
“Well then, take your medicine . “
She pouted .
He pecked her on the lips and whispered, “Be good . “
She felt like she was struck by a lightning bolt . He kissed her? How could she let that happen? She covered her mouth and stared at him with wide eyes, her heart racing .
He noticed her behavior and squeezed her nose . “What’s that reaction? It’s not like we have never kissed before . ” He got up to get some water . Making sure the water was lukewarm, he took some pills and walked over to her . “You take it . “
Su Qianci’s hands were trembling . When she saw the water he brought, her eyes became red . She stuttered, “Mr . Li, I…”
I was raped by someone with HIV . I might have it as well .
“No excuses . Take it . ” Li Sicheng put the pills in his palm . “Open your mouth . “
She swallowed her words back again . She took the water and gazed at the pills .
“Do you want me to feed you?” He arched an eyebrow and approached her . “With my mouth?”
No, no!
Su Qianci immediately put the pills in her mouth and swallowed them with water .
“Then go to bed . ” He got in the bed and helped her down . The bed was a bit narrow for two .

With so much on her mind, Su Qianci could not fall asleep . Because Li Sicheng had taken a nap, he did not fall asleep either .
“Mr . Li?”
“Yes?”
“If one day… I am sick with the disease that has no cure, will you still be together with me?”
“Yes . “
“What if I got the disease very soon?”
“Yes . “
“What if I am about to die?”
Without saying a thing, he raised his face . He had already turned the lights out in the room . Dim light came through the glass door, making his cold and deep eyes look like a galaxy . “Then I will die with you . ” His voice was going to resonate for a thousand years in her mind .
Her heart suddenly raced . Her tears fell uncontrollably . She immediately wiped them off, afraid that they were going to fall on him . She sobbed, “Why?”
“We’re husband and wife, silly girl . ” Li Sicheng gazed at her deeply . “I have only one wife . Without you, what is the point of living alone?”
Su Qianci bowed her head and put an arm around his waist, sobbing, “Mr . Li, I mean it . “
“And you think I don’t?” He took her into his arms, making her rest her head on his chest . Lying like that, she could clearly feel the vibration of his vocal cords . “I mean everything I said, Mrs . Li . ” Last night, when he thought she had been killed, his heart was empty . His only thought was to be together with her… If those people did not stop him, Li Sicheng would have plunged himself into water .
