Xie Yunjin felt somewhat embarrassed as he lowered his gaze and spoke.
After a good while, he gently said, "Jiaojiao, you may not realize how important you are to me and our four little ones. You are our light, the source of our happiness.
Sometimes I wonder, if you didn't exist, what would we have become? Certainly not the sunny and cheerful individuals we are now. We might have turned gloomy, ruthless, unable to tolerate the beauty in the world. In the end, we might have destroyed others and ourselves."
Lu Jiao looked at Xie Yunjin in astonishment. In the book, they did ultimately become such people.
Seeing Lu Jiao's stunned expression, Xie Yunjin thought she might be frightened by his words. He leaned down and kissed her cheek.
"I will overcome everything to be with you."
Lu Jiao took a second to regain her composure. She reacted by glaring at him fiercely.
This man was truly pushing it.
"Sleep."
