Chapter 303: Will You Marry Me and Remain As A Living Widow For The Rest Of Your Life?
All along, Gu Changye knew clearly that Qi Sumei did not love him.
Besides, he had gotten into an accident and became sexually impotent. Out of respect, he rarely touched Qi Sumei.
He changed his lovers frequently, all for the sake of catching her attention!
He tried to torture his lovers because he couldn’t restrain himself, and had violent tendencies. He was indeed rather brutal and extreme… but he had never tried to force his lovers to be with him. They were all willing parties.
Whenever he saw Qi Sumei blaming and berating him, he wouldn’t get angry and would simply comfort himself in joy.
At least, she wasn’t unfeeling towards him and still cared about him. Regardless of what her rationale was, what mattered was… she cared!
“Ye, I don’t want to adapt to it now. Don’t force me… okay?” Qi Sumei’s body stiffened and she retorted.
There was silence for a long time.
“Mei, the plum blossoms in your room, are withering soon, right?” He questioned calmly all of a sudden.
Due to the fact that Qi Sumei’s name contained the word ‘Mei’ (means plum blossoms in Chinese), and she was as pure and elegant as plum blossoms… Gu Changye would meticulously collect plum blossoms from everywhere, regardless of the season, and send them to Qi Sumei’s room.
All year round, there would be plum blossoms blooming for her… and right before they withered, Gu Changye would replace them!
His love for her was eternal.
“Ye, how many times have I said that you don’t have to worry so much! The flowers will bloom again after they wither, there can never be flowers that do not wither… ”
Qi Sumei looked down to hide her disgust and answered him calmly.
“So, are you really willing to marry me and stay as a living widow for the rest of your life?”
Gu Changye asked again. For the first time, he was willing to be frank about the issue.
Just as Qi Sumei was feeling slightly stunned, he slowly let go of her and took a step back. “Mei, I’m sure you know how I feel about you! I just want you to accompany me. I’ll give you what you want, except… we can’t have a child.”
After a short pause, Gu Changye clenched his fists and felt rather agonized because of his flaw. “However, I suddenly want to give you a way out! As long as you say that you regret your decision and refuse to marry me, you’ll still have a chance! I’ll step out and call off our engagement… ”
They looked at each other and Qi Sumei felt that Gu Changye was behaving rather strangely today.
Could it be… that he knows something?
No, it can’t be!
However, he really wanted to know the truth. Given his ruthlessness, how could he be so calm?
He loves me? Psht, what does an eunuch know about love!?!
The only possibility would be that he’s testing me!
“Ye, I’m yours and I’ve always been yours. Of course I’d be willing to marry you.”
She said calmly after a long while.
“Hah, is that so?”
Gu Changye chuckled gently after hearing her words.
He then lowered his head in a bid to kiss Qi Sumei on her lips.
Qi Sumei quickly moved her head towards the side, causing Gu Changye’s kiss to land on her cheeks instead of her lips.
Afraid that he may be displeased, Qi Sumei fiddled with her fingers and explained, “Ye, you have always respected me and I… I am very grateful for that! There’s still some time left before we get married. I’d like to slowly get used to being intimate with you… Before then, don’t force me, alright?”
Gu Changye looked at her while feeling utterly disappointed. He felt as if he were looking at a joke that was being played on him.
After a long while, he said calmly, “Okay.”
He then extended his arm slowly and pulled her into his embrace. He muttered softly, “You clearly know that I’ll never turn you down. Throughout all these years, haven’t I been giving in to you for everything?”
“Ye, thank you.”
Trying her best to bear with the disgust, Qi Sumei extended her arm and tried to hug him.
However, Gu Changye didn’t find the hug to be heartwarming at all… instead, he felt disappointed!
