Chapter 1539: The Last Step

The moment Zhang Yulan heard the familiar voice, she stopped in her tracks. After a moment of hesitation, she turned around and walked toward the man.

Standing a few steps in front of him, she asked, "Brother An, you are still injured. Why are you coming out?"

An Xuyuan stared into her eyes and asked, "Yulan, are you planning to leave without even seeing me?"

Meeting his gaze, Zhang Yulan lowered her eyes and replied with a smile, "Brother An, you are overthinking."

"Is that so?"

After a moment of silence, An Xuyuan let out a sigh and held her hand. He didn’t give her room to refuse as he pulled her into his house while saying, "I know you care about me. That’s why you asked my neighbors to check on me once every hour."

Hearing this, Zhang Yulan said, "I’m just worried."

An Xuyuan nodded and replied, "I know, that’s why I’m feeling happy and eager to meet you."

After they entered the house, he pulled her to the bench and let her sit down before he sat beside her. He didn’t let go of her hand and said, "Yulan, I know that you don’t have any romantic feelings toward me and only treat me as a friend. But I can’t lie to myself."

When she heard his words, Zhang Yulan had a premonition in her heart, and she looked at him with wide eyes. She shook her head and said, "Brother An, I—"

Before she could finish her words, An Xuyuan said, "Yulan, I like you. My heart desires you, and I want to be part of your future."

Zhang Yulan was shocked by his sudden, direct confession and was at a loss. She could only stare at him with an agape mouth.

"When I was attacked by the wolf, I thought that I would die. During that moment, I only had one fear and regret. I feared that I wouldn’t be able to come back and see you again. I regretted that I was not brave enough to confess my feelings to you," An Xuyuan said solemnly.

Taking a deep breath, he continued, "Now that I managed to come back and was given a second chance, I don’t want to miss my chance anymore."

"Yulan, it’s okay if you don’t have the same feelings as me. I only want you to know that I like you as you are. As for your family background or what other people will say about me, I don’t care."

Zhang Yulan’s eyes teared up, and she quickly blinked to hold back her tears. Lowering her head, she said hoarsely, "Even if you don’t care, what about your family? If you marry me, your future will be ruined. I don’t want to harm you."

The moment he heard this, the corner of An Xuyuan’s lips lifted. He tightened his hold on her hand and said, "Yulan, the one marrying you is me. I will take care of my family. They will like you. As for my future, I believe with my capability, I can still have a bright future."
