Chapter 326: 326, as long as you are willing, it can last a lifetime
Shi Yuhuan remained silent, his handsome, icy face seemingly calm and undisturbed.
However, the nerve-racking pressure that emanated from his role put an unnerving anxiety in the heart of Song Qinghuan, which she was unable to suppress.
She swallowed nervously, not apologizing, not begging for forgiveness, but asked softly, “When did you discover it?”
She believed that some things, when pursued, inevitably come to light, regardless of how one tries to evade them.
Shi Yuhuan chuckled slightly, turning his gaze to the window, his profile graced with an ethereally beautiful light, “Does it matter?”
Song Qinghuan bowed her head, “Of course, it matters.”
Shi Yuhuan eased up his expression and said flatly, “When I married you, I knew that your brother is Yan Pingdan, the missing financial director of the company. I even knew that you joined the company to investigate his disappearance.”
Did he know that early?
Shock filled Song Qinghuan’s eyes. It took her a while to compose herself, “Then why didn’t you expose me? Why did you continue to marry me?”
Shi Yuhuan raised his eyebrows, “Why would I expose you? I also want to know where your brother has gone, because his absence is not merely a minor loss.”
Song Qinghuan frowned, gazing at him quietly, “So, you also do not know where my brother is, nor why he disappeared?”
Shi Yuhuan curled his lips into a cold, mocking smile, filled with disdain and ridicule, “What, did you always suspect that I harmed your brother or hid him somewhere?”
His words were like a sharp knife brutally thrust into Song Qinghuan’s heart, her face instantly turned pale as snow. Her reply came out hollow and weak, “No…”
She wanted to explain clearly that although she initially had some doubts, later on, she had never thought that way. She always believed that he might not be related to her brother’s disappearance at all.
For some reason, it was an inexplicable belief, but saying that seemed powerless and feeble.
She sighed, “There’s no point in explaining any more, it just makes me feel more guilty.”
Shi Yuhuan composed himself, staring at her emotionlessly, “I want to know where your brother is more than you do.”
Song Qinghuan bit her lip and looked at him, “Now that you know everything, what do you want to do?”
Shi Yuhuan said,”What do you mean ‘what do you want to do’? I told you, I knew back when we got married.”
A tinge of uncertainty reflected in her ebony eyes, a faint blush returned to her snow-white face, “So, you mean we should keep everything the same as before…”
Shi Yuhuan’s voice deepened, “Why? Don’t you want to keep it the same?”
Song Qinghuan’s expression became a bit shy, “Well, it’s not that, it’s just a bit surprising…”
“Fool,” Shi Yuhuan’s voice carried a hint of indulgent affection.
He softly said, “I quite like you as my wife, if you’re willing, continue being it, not just now, in the future too, for a lifetime if you want.”
Such an ordinary line, compared to the grand vows in the romance novels she had read, seemed too ordinary, strangely enough. But to Song Qinghuan, it sounded incredibly sweet.
Her heart melted like a pool of honey, a surge of blushing sweetness swept over her. This only added to her confusion and disbelief, “Do you mean, I am now, and will still be, your wife in two years’ time.”
Shi Yuhuan casually replied, “Hmm, if you’re willing, you can keep it that way, it’s quite good. Marriage is tedious, let’s leave it at that.”
