Chapter 1319: I Only Want You (17)

An Xiaoning stared at him in satisfaction and said coquettishly, “Oppa, saranghae (I love you).”

Henry’s heart skipped a beat; he was at a complete loss for words.

An Xiaoning lay down beside him and draped her arms around his neck. “I went to shop for some baby products together with Lianzhi and Qingyue today. The moment I saw those products, I instantly felt an urge to give birth to another child. We’ll have three children at home then. How wonderful.”

He moved his lips slightly, unable to speak his mind.

After a long while, he was still remaining silent. Thinking that he must have fallen asleep, she looked up at him, only to discover that his eyes were wide open and that he seemed to be deep in thought.

“Why do I have a feeling that you’re troubled?”

“I’m not.”

“Henry, let’s sleep together.”

“Okay, let’s sleep.”

She repeated her words and emphasized the word “sleep.” She added, “Okay?”

“Okay.”

An Xiaoning was dumbfounded. She sat up straight and looked at him closely. “Qingyan?”

“I’m Henry.”

“!!!”

An Xiaoning inched closer toward him and said, “What’s wrong with you? If you’re upset about something, tell me about it. Don’t bottle your feelings up.”

“An Xiaoning.”

“Yes?”

“If I never ever vanish, will you detest me to the core?”

“I… refuse to answer your question,” she answered.

He nodded, seemingly having understood something.

“Ah! What are you doing!?!” she yelled. “Henry, you’re out of your mind. What’s wrong with you? Let go, I told you to let go. You’re nuts, let go!”

“…”

Due to the superb soundproofing effects, no one could hear the ruckus going on inside the room.

It was the afternoon.

Auntie Chen knocked on the door and said, “Young Madam, Young Sir, it’s time for lunch. It’s already three o’clock.”

An Xiaoning answered feebly, “Got it, Auntie Chen, we’ll go downstairs now.”

Upon hearing her reply, Auntie Chen hurriedly zoomed downstairs to make the preparations.

An Xiaoning opened her eyes and stared blankly into space before shifting her gaze onto the man beside her.

It had never crossed her mind that Henry would take the initiative to get intimate with her. In fact, he was incredibly passionate and hysterical.

Usually, he wouldn’t even let her lay a finger on him, let alone get intimate. She was incredibly shocked.

An Xiaoning sat up straight to see that there was a piece of paper on the headboard.

There was a pen beside it too.

Staring at the words on the paper, she picked it up.

He had written a message.

It read: “I’ve lost the bet that we made with each other. I’ll keep my word and disappear on my own. Today… is the happiest day of my life. You were the one who gave me that joy, though you used to be the person I detested the most. Thank you. —Henry”

An Xiaoning’s hands trembled after reading his message.

He had completely taken her aback today.

She had no idea when he started falling in love with her.

She initially yearned for him to vanish.

However, she could not help but feel a little upset about his sudden farewell.

She spaced out for a long while before lying down again to hug Jin Qingyan.

He hugged her back and murmured, “Xiaoning…”

“Yes.”

He opened his eyes to look at her before looking at himself.

He soon realized what happened.

They were both stark naked.

A sudden memory popped up in his head.

Soon, his mind was flooded with various memories that he never once had, causing him to spring up all of a sudden.

“Qingyan, what’s wrong?”

Jin Qingyan hugged her and said, “Xiaoning.”

“Yes? What’s the matter?”

“Why do I suddenly possess Henry’s recollections?”

An Xiaoning finally figured out what was going on.

Their memories were now connected, at the expense of Henry’s existence.

“He kept his promise and vanished on his own. Actually, you’ve just walked out of your traumatic past and let go of everything that you’re upset about deep down. You’re still you, regardless of whether you’re Henry or Jin Qingyan. You two are the same person in the first place. However, your condition is a breakthrough. For now, there is no official cure for dissociative identity disorder, and yet you’ve now recovered, haven’t you? Incredible.”

“He fell in love with you? That’s way sooner than I had expected. I thought that you guys would have to interact with each other more for him to fall in love with you,” said Jin Qingyan, who found it to be rather incredible although he had already expected it.

“I find it a little too sudden as well. I thought about it in detail and I reckon that he probably only realized today that he had developed feelings for me. He was not acting like his usual self today, and he even got intimate with me out of the blue. Hmph.”

Jin Qingyan raised his brows and said, “So…”

“So what? I’m getting up now. It’s already three in the afternoon. I’m going to have my lunch. Since you now possess his memories, I no longer have to explain some things to you, especially regarding Li Baozhen. Henry wants you to visit her parents and treat her well. I’m in support of that. After all, they’re your saviors and we ought to repay their kindness. What do you think?”

“It’s a must. But say it once more.”

“Say what?”

“Oppa, saranghae.”

“…”

An Xiaoning conceded, “Oppa, saranghae. Brother, I love you.”

Beaming with joy, he pulled her into his embrace.

——

It was Jin Qingyan’s birthday on the 16th of October, according to the Lunar calendar.

The best gift to him would be the breaking of the curse.

They were not at all worried that Wu Haigang would deceive them. After all, Wu Haigang knew clearly how important the lives of his descendants were to him.

At this point, he did not have an option.

He broke their curse on the 16th of October, the very same day that he died.

The witchcraft of the Wu family would now cease to exist.

The price that the Donggong family had to pay for attempting to kill An Xiaoning was the death of Wu Haigang.

Nothing else mattered anymore.

Wu Haigang was executed in secret after the curse was broken.

An Xiaoning felt as if the rock on her chest had finally been lifted. It was the most relaxed she had ever been.

Wu Lianzhi’s application for a household register had been approved.

“Since you’re now allowed to enjoy permanent residence, I’ve arranged a job for you. You may become a counselor at a university. Although staff-student relationships are prohibited, university campuses are densely populated with girls. Once you’ve found a suitable partner, you may switch to another job. What do you think?” said An Xiaoning.
