After that night, Shen Yan's daily routine was completely changed.

Those projects that often required working around the clock were cut off, and Shen Yan never attended any social drinking parties again.

Inside the spacious and bright villa, top nutritionists, private doctors, and even full-time sports coaches frequently come and go.

These highly paid professionals revolve around one man every day.

The vacant lawn in the backyard of the villa was urgently transformed into an all-weather, temperature-controlled running track.

The food served at the table has also become extremely strict.

The two sat at the dining table.

Shen Yan ate the bland meals that the nutritionist had carefully prepared.

In front of Jiang Li, the gluttonous girl, there was still a large spread of high-calorie food and various desserts.

The man didn't comment on it and picked up a napkin to wipe his mouth.

Jiang Li knew perfectly well what he was wary of.

She gazed at the tall figures sweating profusely on the track.

The man was wearing a tight-fitting sports vest, which perfectly accentuated his broad shoulders and narrow waist.

His shoulders were sharp, and the veins on his arms bulged clearly as he ran.

Even as I get older, that aloofness and coldness remain deeply ingrained in my bones.

Only when he saw Jiang Li outside the glass window would his dark eyes reveal an extremely restrained tenderness.

"Baby, Old Man Shen has recently secretly invested several hundred million more into those gene-based anti-aging labs."

The black and white cat was perched on the back of the sofa, leisurely licking its right front paw.

His special assistant is traveling the world, gathering the latest research data on human physiology.

Look how serious he is; he's terrified of dying.

Shen Yan's long career in a position of power has instilled in her a strong sense of self-control.

Even with the age gap, the man's shoulders and back still exuded an unyielding, hardened aura.

A nine-year age difference isn't much when you're young.

In his later years, however, it became the biggest thorn in the side of this strong man.

This gangster boss, accustomed to being in control and never having witnessed bloodshed in battle,

My biggest fear is that I'll be the one to leave her first.

His obsessive possessiveness made it impossible for him to tolerate anyone else standing next to her in the future.

Jiang Li lowered her head and touched the cat's ears.

[The system.]

【I'm here.】

Is there any way to get him to come with me in the next world?

She asked herself the question.

This gluttonous cat always has some special trump cards up its sleeve.

The system, unusually, abandoned its usual nonchalant demeanor, and its mechanical voice carried a serious tone.

"Baby, if you're sure you only want Shen Yan, I can apply for a unique partner spot for you."

Jiang Li's breathing became lighter.

What does this mean?

After he dies, I can collect his soul and take him to the next world.

However, the rules have limitations; he cannot retain memories like you, nor can there be any guarantee that he will become someone else.

[He might be the male lead or a supporting male character, he might be a passerby, or he might have a very low social status.]

[What's more troublesome is that he has no memories of this life, so he might fall in love with someone else.]

Jiang Li looked down at the cat in her arms and remained silent for a long time.

Night fell outside the window, and only a floor lamp was on in the living room.

She recalled the hospital room many years ago, when Shen Yan's wound reopened and he still wanted her to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

She also recalled the moment at their wedding when he slipped the ring onto her ring finger.

Standing amidst flowers and sea breeze, yet their eyes were filled with risk and lingering fear.

He valued her more than his own life.

In his old age, what he feared most was leaving her first.

I do.

The system paused for a moment.

Are you sure? Once this slot is linked, it can never be changed.

【Sure.】

The system paused for a few seconds.

Okay, but there's a condition: he must voluntarily give his soul to you.

However, I cannot mention quick transmigration or my actual existence.

Jiang Li slowed down her petting of the cat.

What if he refuses?

Then we can't force them to buy.

【it is good. 】

In the bedroom late at night, the sweet scent of fir and pear blossoms mingled together.

The two, having taken a shower, leaned against the headboard of the large bed.

The man wore a silk robe, the neckline revealing a large expanse of his healthy, bronze-colored, firm chest muscles.

His long-term, rigorous, personalized workout regimen has allowed him to maintain amazing stamina and physique.

His neck is clean and sharp, and his jawline is sharp, exuding the wild charm of a mature man.

Jiang Li nestled limply in his arms, half of her body slumped over.

"Shen Yan".

A soft, delicate voice rang out in the quiet room.

"If that day ever comes, would you be willing to give me your entire soul?"

The question was thrown out without any preamble.

The large hand gripping her waist tightened immediately.

His Adam's apple bobbed slowly, clearly indicating he was suppressing his emotions.

The man sat upright, his shoulders and back taut, and all his muscles subtly tensed.

That force, carrying an absolute sense of restraint, pressed her against his burning hot body without reservation.

The two were pressed tightly together without any gap.

"As long as I can keep bothering you,"

"Not only your soul after death, but your life in the next life will also be yours."

A deep, cold male voice fell close to his ear, carrying an undisguised obsessive possessiveness.

The man's breath sprayed onto her delicate skin, triggering a series of reactions.

Jiang Li was speechless at his decisiveness.

She raised her hand and poked the man's firm jawline.

"They didn't even ask me what I need a soul for. Aren't they afraid I'm a non-human monster who eats people without spitting out the bones?"

She looked up and met those dark, deep eyes.

"It doesn't matter if it's a monster."

He lowered his head to capture those two soft, red lips, his breathing heavy as he plundered them.

The intertwining of their lips and teeth exuded a powerful, domineering presence from the man.

Their breathing rhythms completely became disordered, and the temperature of their blood rose rapidly due to the close contact.

The broad, muscular back muscles stretched and bulged with sweat as he moved, creating a dangerously beautiful effect.

After this highly aggressive action ended, Jiang Li's eyes were already glistening with tears.

She pushed against the strong body on top of her and rolled off the bed.

A short while later, the black and white cat that had been lying outside the door was forcibly carried into the room and placed on the pure white mattress.

The chubby black and white woolly creature whimpered twice in dissatisfaction.

Jiang Li pushed the cat in front of the man's line of sight.

The two sat side by side on the edge of the large bed.

"This cat is exhibiting some inexplicable abnormalities."

"My body has that ability to recover quickly"

This strange body odor is directly related to it.

Some things don't need to be explained too thoroughly.

"At the very last moment, it can take charge of guiding our souls away."

Having put it this plainly, we've already covered the maximum allowed by the rules.

"However, there is a price to pay."

Jiang Li stared into the man's eyes, her hands gripping the corner of the blanket tightly.

This vague and ethereal concept sounds utterly absurd.

"We will go to an unknown place, and all your memories of this life will be erased."

The man's gaze was fixed on the cat, which was completely defying the laws of biological aging.

A turbulent undercurrent was suppressed in Shen Yan's eyes.

Many years ago, he had his subordinates verify all of Jiang Li's past background.

The girl in the information had nothing unusual about her.

She has neither an alluring body odor, nor does her physical condition or appetite exceed the normal range.

These bizarre changes occurred suddenly after the two became bound together.

In addition, this one has been with her since her junior year of college.

The fact that pets have not changed their appearance to this day is a clear indication of something illogical.

For a naturally suspicious person in a position of power, he only believes what he has in his hands.

He didn't want to delve into the reasons behind these supernatural phenomena.

His large, calloused hands cradled the girl's face, his fingertips tracing her contours with longing.

Will you remember me?

An extremely oppressive aura enveloped her beneath him as the man asked in a low voice.

There is no doubt about this; it is a mixture of all the ruthlessness and pleading in his bones.

Jiang Li nodded without any hesitation.

Warm hands grasped his broad hand, fingertips rubbing the bulging veins.

"I will come find you, no matter what you become."

Finally, a sense of peace settled in those cold, resolute eyes.

He shoved the black and white cat that was blocking his view aside.

Strong, powerful arms held the person firmly against his chest.

He buried his face in the crook of her neck, greedily inhaling the sweet scent that belonged only to him.

"Remember what you said today, you must come find me."

Jiang Li felt a lump in her throat and softly hummed in agreement.

I will definitely come to find you.

The night was deep.

Shen Yan held Jiang Li in his arms and didn't really sleep well all night.

He knew she still had things she couldn't say, and he also knew he had crossed some boundary that was beyond his control.

But compared to losing her, the unknown is acceptable.

The following morning, sunlight streamed through the windows of the hillside villa, illuminating a large carpet.

The special assistant stood in front of the desk with the newly compiled urgent report in hand.

Shen Yan looked down at the table full of the latest global life-extending medical solutions and said in a deep voice.

"Notify the finance headquarters to increase the budgets for all relevant medical research projects, with no upper limit."
