Chapter 162 The Gentle Male Supporting Character Fights and Snatches Away 69
Jiang Li turned over, leaving him with the back of her head protesting.
Last night, he... forced her to shout "I want you in the next life" in a tearful voice.
Pei Shiheng sat down on the edge of the bed and pulled her, blanket and all, into his arms.
"Are you still angry?"
He lowered his head and kissed her cheek.
"Shall I give you a back massage?"
"Get away from me."
Jiang Li grabbed his wrist and bit it.
She didn't use much force, leaving only a faint ring of teeth marks.
Pei Shiheng smiled and let her bite him.
The promises he had made filled the void of his long-standing unease.
He was in a state of unprecedented relaxation at that moment.
"Baby."
Pei Shiheng picked up the bowl of porridge, scooped out a spoonful, blew on it to cool it, and fed it to her.
"How about I take you to an island to see whales next week?"
Jiang Li swallowed the porridge and asked indistinctly:
"Don't you have a cross-border merger and acquisition deal to discuss next week?"
"Let Yu Bai go; he needs more experience."
Pei Shiheng made his attempt to shift the blame sound perfectly respectable.
Poor Pei Yubai, stuck with such a love-obsessed older brother.
The system watched the show from the sidelines.
"Aren't you afraid he'll break off the negotiations?"
Jiang Li's cheeks were bulging from being stuffed with steamed buns.
Pei Shiheng carefully wiped the soup from her lips with a tissue.
"If it collapses, it collapses. The Pei family can afford the losses, but we can't reduce the time we spend with you."
Hearing his self-righteous words of love, Jiang Li's anger subsided considerably.
As long as this man doesn't become obsessive, he can spoil people rotten.
Jiang Li's fingers quietly hooked around his hand that was hanging over the edge of the bed.
Pei Shiheng looked down at their clasped fingers, a slight smile playing on his lips.
Then his gaze shifted to the cow-patterned cat curled up on the windowsill.
The cat's fur was glossy, showing no signs of aging.
Pei Shiheng's gaze darkened for a moment.
That dream.
That person.
Those past events that Jiang Li was unwilling to talk about.
He won't pressure her.
But he has already made up his mind.
Whether it's this life or the next life she mentioned.
He will never lose to anyone.
Including the man who lives in her memory, whose name she doesn't yet know.
Their whale-watching trip to the island became a microcosm of their lives for the next few decades.
Lu Chengye and Lin Xiaoman's married life was not peaceful.
Lin Xiaoman never adapted to the rules of a wealthy family.
The small talk at the banquet made her feel uncomfortable, and the critical remarks from the Lu family elders made her feel suffocated.
Lu Chengye initially protected her, but as time went on...
Exhaustion will gradually erode patience.
Every time I see Pei Shiheng and his wife in public, I see Jiang Li behaving very appropriately.
Looking back at Lin Xiaoman's slip of the tongue at the dinner party, Lu Chengye felt a surge of inexplicable disappointment.
Lin Xiaoman was also dissatisfied.
She initially thought that marrying Lu Chengye would bring her favoritism, but she never expected to receive more rules and comparisons instead.
She couldn't help but compare herself to Jiang Li, who was relaxed and carefree, and the more she compared, the more frustrated she felt.
Lu Chengye occasionally thought of Lin Zhi's dignified and proper demeanor, which made him even more irritable when faced with Lin Xiaoman's arguments.
But once the child was born, they were bound by their families and pressured by public opinion, so they could only continue living amidst the chaos.
When Jiang Li heard this news, she simply said "Oh".
Pei Shiheng wrapped his arms around her waist from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder:
"Don't you feel bad?"
"What's there to feel sorry for?"
"I feel sorry for your ex-boyfriend, he must be having a hard time."
Jiang Li slapped his hand away: "How old are you to still be jealous?"
"I'll eat it even when I'm a hundred." His voice was muffled.
[Hilarious! This man's jealousy could last a lifetime.]
The life extension project has been underway for many years, but ultimately it has not achieved true immortality.
Extending human lifespan by more than ten years and improving functional limits is already the limit.
When Pei Shiheng was 120 years old, he rarely left the manor.
On the last day, the roses outside the manor were in full bloom.
Pei Shiheng leaned against the headboard, holding Jiang Li's hand in his.
Those once long and strong hands, now covered with thin wrinkles, still never let go of her hand.
His dark chestnut hair had turned frosty white, but his facial features remained handsome.
He's aged, but the way he looks at Jiang Li is no different from when he was twenty.
The black and white cat sat quietly at the foot of the bed.
Its fur is still distinctly black and white, and its tail sways slowly.
Pei Shiheng glanced at the cat.
"Baby, come a little closer."
Jiang Li leaned down and got closer to him.
Due to the effects of system and lifespan gain, ginger and pear age much more slowly than normal people.
Pei Shiheng raised his hand to touch her face, his fingertips trembling violently.
He stared at her for a long time, tracing her eyebrows and eyes with his fingertips.
"The baby is still so beautiful."
He said.
Jiang Li's nose felt incredibly sore.
She held his hand and pressed it against her face, preventing him from letting go.
"Pei Shiheng, you're handsome too."
"I'm an old man." He chuckled, his Adam's apple bobbing.
"Does my baby still want me?"
"Yes." Jiang Li's eyes reddened.
Pei Shiheng's thumb brushed against the corner of her eye.
Don't cry.
"good."
Jiang Li sniffed and pulled his hand to her lips, kissing it.
Pei Shiheng looked at her, tears welling up in his eyes.
Those eyes still held the possessiveness and infatuation of youth.
It just has a lot more gentle things in it, so gentle that it makes your heart ache.
"Baby."
"Um."
"In the next life, you must come find me."
Pei Shiheng's breathing quickened, and he squeezed her fingers tightly.
Jiang Li buried her face in the crook of his neck and nodded frantically.
But Pei Shiheng was still worried.
His anxiety was amplified to the extreme when facing death.
"If in the next life, I will forget everything."
He stared into Jiang Li's eyes, his tone revealing a pitiful yet stubborn plea.
"If I became a really bad person, with a bad temper, selfishness, and possessiveness ten thousand times stronger than I am now..."
"If I am no longer a gentleman, I will not even bother to pretend anymore, and I will not listen to any reason."
They even forgot about you, were indifferent to you, and told you to get out...
He was panting heavily, clutching her sleeve tightly.
"Baby, will you still want me?"
He wants a guarantee.
An absolute promise that sustained him toward an unknown death.
Jiang Li looked up at him, her eyes glistening with tears.
She straightened up, cupped his wrinkled face in her hands, and leaned down to press her forehead against his.
Their noses touched lightly.
"Pei Shiheng, did you hear me clearly?"
Jiang Li looked directly into his handsome eyes and spoke each word with absolute certainty.
"No matter what you are in your next life, even if you are a complete villain or an unreasonable madman."
"As long as it's you, I will take the initiative to pursue you and flirt with you in every way possible."
Even if you try to drive me away, I won't leave. I'll just stubbornly stay by your side.
She smiled through her tears: "You've taken care of me my whole life, in the next life I'll spoil you."
The gloom in Pei Shiheng's eyes finally dissipated completely.
His long-held obsession was soothed, and he smiled contentedly, tears sliding down his graying temples.
"it is good."
With his last ounce of strength, he hooked Jiang Li's neck with one hand and forcefully pressed her against himself.
Pei Shiheng's lips pressed against Jiang Li's red lips.
This was a kiss devoid of lust, yet profound enough to transcend time and space.
A hundred years of love, all poured into this kiss.
"Baby."
"Don't keep me waiting too long."
Pei Shiheng murmured indistinctly as his lips touched hers.
"it is good."
Jiang Li wrapped her arms around his neck and accepted the kiss.
Pei Shiheng's breathing gradually became shallower and lighter.
Then she and he closed their eyes together.
The manor was very quiet.
A rose petal drifted in through the window and landed on the edge of the bed.
The black and white cat stood up and walked to the two people's clasped hands.
Its tail swept gently over the pair of rings that had been worn for nearly a hundred years.
A pure white light shone from the cat, enveloping the two people on the bed.
The light grew brighter and brighter.
Until the entire room was swallowed up by white.
The roses outside the window are still in full bloom.
The Second World.
Finish.
