She had just sat down when Mo Ningyi started to feel sleepy. Nan Yuesheng wrapped her arms around her, "Divine, how old are you?"
"You guess."
He opened the food box, which had many varieties of pastries. He took one out, took a bite, and it tasted quite good.
"100 years old?"
Xu Mohan glanced at her, "You’re way off."
"Ah... Then, 25 years old?"
"..." He raised his eyebrows, "I said you’re way off from 100, aning much older."
"Is it 2000 years old?" Nan Yuesheng widened her eyes.
"You’re not even close."
"Could it be tens of thousands of years?"
Xu Mohan said, "137,000 years old."
"Goodness!" She blurted out. "That’s really o..."
Even though she stopped herself in ti, Xu Mohan guessed what she wanted to say, "Old what?"
"Old...people."
He coldly huffed, "Don’t think I didn’t know what you were going to say."
Nan Yuesheng shrank her neck and said sheepishly, "You could be my great-great-great-great-great-great-great...grandfather."
"I wouldn’t have such a foolish great-great-great-great-great-great-great...granddaughter." Xu Mohan unconsciously ate two pieces of pastry, "To chase after a man to the brink of death along with your child."
"I am indeed foolish, falling for a man and wanting to spend a lifeti with him."
"Your daughter is asleep. Put her on the bed."
Nan Yuesheng placed Mo Ningyi down and covered her with a blanket, placing her hands on top, "Divine, are you married?"
"No."
"Don’t you feel lonely living so many years alone?"
"Do you think I can’t live without a partner like you?"
His words embarrassed Nan Yuesheng again, "I was just too shocked at the ti, I couldn’t accept it."
"Life is just a few decades; love or not, being together or not, drinking ngpo Soup and continuing the new cycle of reincarnation after death, who still rembers anyone? You start looking for new love again, don’t regard him as too important. He has always belonged to himself, not you. Whether you are together or not, you are just passerby in his life."
These words resonated deep within Nan Yuesheng. She covered her face with her hand as tears slid down, choking up, "My dad was a gambler. My mom remarried after their divorce and never cared for . All I have ever wanted was a family. From the past till now, I have had no ho, and I don’t know if I will in the future. I feel like I can see my whole life now; is there still any happiness to speak of in the future? I know nothing, but no matter what, I won’t take my life anymore. If my child and I were to die, they would still live happily; nothing would change, why should I end my life?"
A blue handkerchief was passed to her, "It’s good that you think this way, it ans I didn’t save you in vain."
"Thank you."
Nan Yuesheng took it and wiped her tears, the handkerchief carried a faint masculine fragrance.
"I like this place, quiet environnt, fresh air, with mountains and water. If I have a chance in the future, I would also want to live in such an environnt and lead a peaceful life."
"Why wait for a chance in the future? If you want, you can do it now."
Nan Yuesheng was stunned, "Now?"
"Do you want it?"
"Is it possible?"
"If you want, it’s possible."
"I want it." Nan Yuesheng replied, "I really do."
"If you agree to one thing, I will let you live here." He raised his eyebrows, "Do you agree?"
