Love You for the Rest of My Life-Chapter 2018 - 2015: Xiaoran, I Love You

Di Mingchen said this, and Nangong Ran’s tears flowed even more profusely, her heart feeling a bit wronged. She couldn’t help but struggle and lightly punch him, "Di Mingchen, you scoundrel, you liked me but didn’t say earlier. Do you know how upset I was when I thought you didn’t like me!"

The girl’s voice choked with sobs, her words playful, and her constant twisting in his arms—all of this made Di Mingchen feel particularly conflicted.

It was impulsive yet heart-wrenching.

"My fault, Xiaoran..." Di Mingchen held her tightly, enclosing her small and frail body firmly in his embrace. "I used to fear my busy life meant I couldn’t spend time with you, feared you’d not want this kind of life. I was more afraid of the dangers and uncertainties my profession brings.

I feared one day when you wake up and don’t see me, you’d think something happened to me. I feared even more that one day something truly does happen to me, and you..."

"Brother, don’t say anymore!" Nangong Ran quickly covered his mouth with her hand.

Di Mingchen’s brows softened in an instant, kissing her palm with a consuming tenderness, "Xiaoran."

His eyes were incredibly gentle and deep, the sound of him calling her name was so beautiful.

Xiaoran, Xiaoran, she loved how he called her this.

Listening to his words left her both shocked and deeply moved—Di Mingchen had liked her all along!

He dared not approach her; he refused her several times simply because he didn’t want her to bear all these!

It turns out this love was far heavier, deeper, more intense than imagined, making her eyes sting with pain.

It turns out the man she fell for truly was an upright and outstanding man.

Di Mingchen looked at her, gently pulling away her hand, kissing her tears gently from the corners of her eyes, softly asking, "Xiaoran, stop crying, alright?"

"I won’t cry!" Nangong Ran nodded, unable to help but smile amid tears, "You like me, I’m too happy to cry."

Her words made him feel even more bittersweet.

Then Nangong Ran continued, "Brother, what you said is elusive. I know you’re very busy, I also have studies, your profession has certain risks. But isn’t it unsafe for me to drive on the street? I don’t crash into others; what if a rookie crashes into me?

No one knows what will happen in the next second. But I’m grateful you consider this for me, yet brother, you know? Knowing you like me, love me, is more important than anything else, as long as you like me, nothing else matters. Even if we only have one second together, I am willing to spend a lifetime for that second."

Upon hearing Nangong Ran’s words, Di Mingchen was directly stunned.

Even if we only have one second together, I am willing to spend a lifetime for that second!

A twenty-year-old girl was so carefree and unrestrained.

Di Mingchen couldn’t help but feel amused; had he known she’d be happy just to hear him say he liked her, had he known her thoughts were like this, he wouldn’t have endured such hard restraint.

"You know, brother." Nangong Ran’s small hand caressed Di Mingchen’s firm and handsome face, "As long as this person is you, I’m willing for anything!"

At this moment, Di Mingchen’s heart completely softened, collapsed.

Just because of her words.

"Me too!" He responded eagerly and passionately, holding her tightly in his arms, "Xiaoran, I love you!"

Then he kissed her, fiercely, somewhat chaotically, domineeringly and urgently.

Nangong Ran also wrapped her arms around his neck, passionately responding to his kiss, brother, you know? I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time! 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Di Mingchen, I love you too, love your integrity and kindness, love your bravery and responsibility, love your uprightness and reliability, and also, love your deep and unwavering affection, such profound love.
