Danger.

He can remain so calm even after falling from heaven to hell. This shows his strong character. This man is not simple.

Looking at each other from a distance, she didn't move or speak.

Then, Ling Wenzhan rolled over in a wheelchair:

"Can we talk alone?"

Feeling Chunmiao pulling her sleeve from behind, Mu Lianzhi knew she could no longer hide, so she turned around and sent the maid away.

"Zhizhi, are you afraid of me?"

"Shouldn't I be afraid?"

The two of them were standing and sitting at a distance from each other. Ling Wenzhan had been brewing his sad emotions for a long time, but he didn't expect to be greeted with such a ruthless and yet meaningful remark, which caught him off guard again.

Their eyes met, and Mu Lianzhi's gaze did not avoid at all.

There was an awkward pause in time. Ling Wenzhan unconsciously clenched his hands under his sleeves, and a dry smile appeared at the corner of his lips:

"You've become different."

This time, Mu Lianzhi didn't respond.

"Zhizhi, you really can't recognize me? I know I'm sorry for you, and my current appearance may disappoint you. I understand that you can't accept it, and I won't force you to do anything. It's just that you don't recognize me... It really makes me sad."

What does he mean?

Do you want to repent to yourself when you feel guilty?

The thought flashed through Mu Lianzhi's mind, and the next second, a basin of cold water was poured over his head:

"You know, you're the one I care about most."

puff~

In one sentence, Mu Lianzhi almost vomited because of nausea, and there were thousands of horses running wildly in her heart. It is said that "a dying man's words are good", but this person is not a human being at all.

She really thought too highly of him.

"Zhizhi, we are separated after getting married. You can't imagine how much pain I have suffered these years and what kind of life I have lived. I'm not trying to lie to you, nor am I not wanting to come back. It's just that I can't come back."

"You also know that all the expenses of our mansion depend on the business in the south. I went to the south because I was ordered to do so in times of crisis. I had no choice but to do so. I didn't want to leave you. I just wanted to settle everything before the court appointed me, so that I could have a good future and give you the best life."

"Alas, man proposes, God disposes. Our team encountered robbers on the road. Although I was lucky enough to escape with my life, I was actually in a coma for several months before I really woke up. After waking up, my leg was injured and I lost my memory."

"I couldn't contact my family at all, and I didn't know that they thought I was dead."

"Because the village where the family that saved me lived was very poor, I followed them to a farther place to seek survival and treatment, until I slowly remembered the past and tried my best to come back..."

"I didn't expect that the disaster would happen again. This time, I was not only robbed by refugees, but I was almost bitten to death by a poisonous snake. In the end, I was thrown into a mass grave. If it weren't for a lightning bolt that happened to strike my heart and woke me up, and if I hadn't met a kind old coroner and a traveling monk who saved my life, we would have really been separated forever."

"Even so, I still lost an eye. Because of the poisonous blood of the venomous snake, I became half human, half ghost now."

"I couldn't accept it, and I wanted to die several times."

"It's just that I couldn't let go of you and the family in the Marquis Mansion, so I wanted to come back before I died to see if you were doing well. But when I came back, I realized that I couldn't bear to die, and I couldn't bear to leave you."

"Even though I'm half human and half ghost, at least I still have a breath of life. If I really die, how can I be worthy of so many people saving my life, and how can I be worthy of the breath that God has left for me?"

"Zhizhi, sometimes living is no better than dying, but people can't just live for themselves, right? In fact, as long as I can see you, I'll be satisfied."

"On the wedding night, when your name was on the list of successful candidates, I will never forget the scene of marrying you with a gorgeous wedding dress..."

"Zhizhi, I know you've suffered a lot over the years, and you may no longer be able to accept me as I am now, but please don't be afraid of me or reject me, okay? No matter what happened, my feelings for you have never changed."

"Ah, in fact, my body can't last for three years at most. In the last days of my life, I just want to quietly wait for you and live with you the life of harmony that I once dreamed of."

"You really don't recognize me? Can you stay in the mansion for a little longer?"

"It doesn't matter if you pity me or if you care about your future reputation. One year from now, whether I'm still here or not, if you want to leave, I'll let you go. If you don't want to, and if you can still accept me, we can adopt a child and live a good life in the future. Even if I'm gone in the end, you'll still have someone to rely on."

"Anyway, I will arrange the rest of your life..."

I didn't expect that at this time, he would still have such a wishful thinking.

Although she knew that most of his words were false, Mu Lianzhi still managed to grasp some information after careful analysis. For example, the part about him being bitten by a snake and resurrected by being struck by lightning might all be true.

Even if she doesn't know much about medicine, she knows that electric shock can save lives.

Man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation.

Although she was really angry, Mu Lianzhi didn't show it on her face. Instead, she followed his words and said:

"I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful that you even considered the matter of the child. Do you really love me that much?"

"Of course, Zhizhi, everything I said to you is true. I swear to God that if I tell even a single lie, I will—"

May you be struck by lightning.

Raising his hand, Ling Wenzhan paused. In the past, he didn't believe these things, but he was able to wake up this time. According to the old coroner and the monk who saved him, the lightning strike seemed to have really had some effect.

At least, if it wasn't for the thunder, the old coroner would not have been able to find him at all, and he would have no chance of being rescued.

He was afraid it would come true.

Staring at him with burning eyes, Mu Lianzhi pressed on:

"What do you think?"

"Let me be deserted by my friends and relatives and die a miserable death."

After saying that, Ling Wenzhan quickly changed the subject:

"What I said is true. I have thought about the child. Whether it is my eldest brother or my second uncle, there is no shortage of illegitimate children. When the time comes, we can discuss adopting one and raise him..."

Hearing this, Mu Lianzhi really wanted to curse:

I'm in a big trough!

After going around in circles, he still wanted to bring Sang Xi and his son to her to raise?

Yes, Sang Xi is now his sister-in-law, and this is open and aboveboard and witnessed by many people. At least on the surface, it is impossible for the two of them to be together.

And now that he is in such a disabled state, which normal woman would be willing to marry him?

I was scared to death at night~

Can't we seize this ready-made plan of hers?

This would not only help him cover up and raise his son, but also maintain his face and even provide for his old age and funeral. What a beautiful dream.

a year?

Not to mention a year later, can she still do what she wants after that?

The sharp nails pierced into the palm of his hand, and Mu Lianzhi immediately took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes:

"Do you really love me?"
