Chapter 323 With you in my heart, no one else can get in.
Su Niannian had considered many possibilities, but she never expected that Gu Nan's first question would be this.
"Yes." Su Niannian's eyes instantly welled up with tears as she recalled her previous life.
Crystalline tears slid down Su Niannian's cheeks and onto Gu Nan's shoulder.
Noticing that his little girl was crying, Gu Nan let go of Su Niannian's arms and put his hands on her shoulders.
"Why are you crying?" Gu Nan hurriedly wiped away Su Niannian's tears.
Didn't you two get together in your past life? Why is your little girl crying so sadly?
Su Niannian felt Gu Nan's slightly calloused hand wiping away her tears, and couldn't help but recall that Gu Nan looked just like this before he passed away in her previous life.
Tears flowed even more profusely.
Gu Nan's thoughts were completely in disarray, so he could only hold Su Niannian in his arms again and comfort her.
"Did I do something to offend you in my past life?"
"Don't cry! Don't cry," Gu Nan gently comforted Su Niannian in a low voice.
Su Niannian shook her head.
"Are you stupid? If you did something to wrong me in my past life, would I still come back to find you in this life?" Su Niannian was amused by Gu Nan's words.
Looking at the little girl in his arms, Gu Nan's heart softened even more.
It wasn't me... Could it be a little girl...?
impossible.
As soon as a bad idea popped into his head, Gu Nan immediately rejected it.
Su Niannian didn't want to tease Gu Nan anymore, nor did she want Gu Nan to continue worrying.
She leaned against Gu Nan's chest and slowly began to recount her previous life.
"At first, I was forced to go to the countryside and live in a village near the mountains..."
At first, Su Niannian was forced to go to the countryside and experienced a lot in Kaoshan Village. She was deceived by Lu Xingguang and Huang Yingying, two educated youths, and all her money was swindled away.
His life was miserable, and he had no good relationship with Song Zhaodi or anyone else.
No one felt sorry for such a young girl, and her reputation was almost ruined by Lu Xingguang and Huang Yingying.
Then, a year later, when the college entrance examination was reinstated, Su Niannian barely managed to get into a university.
At that time, it was the first year that the college entrance examination was reinstated, and various rules and regulations were not yet perfect.
Su Niannian's university admission notice was tricked into being obtained by her stepmother, Tao Chunhua, who then sold Su Niannian to a hoodlum.
That thug beat Su Niannian every day and never gave her a full meal. Su Niannian's body was covered with wounds, big and small, with her skin torn and bleeding.
Su Niannian's father knew about this, but he didn't care whether Su Niannian lived or died.
Su Niannian was only able to escape danger after the thug was arrested for committing a crime.
Coincidentally, Su Niannian met Gu Nan again at that time.
Gu Nan heard his own name in Su Niannian's story and hugged her even tighter.
Gu Nan thought that since she had met him, things should be better from now on, right?
Su Niannian chuckled and hugged Gu Nan tighter as she continued speaking.
"At that time, I lost hope in life, and you stayed by my side, taking care of me and protecting me."
"But because of this, you didn't go back to the army."
In their previous life, after Gu Nan and Su Niannian reunited, Gu Nan took good care of Su Niannian, and the two eventually got married.
But at that time, Gu Nan was already all alone.
Mother, eldest brother, and younger sister are all dead...
Gu Nan quickly rose to prominence in the business world thanks to his intelligence.
He was a very wealthy man, but he never returned to the military unit he longed for.
Several happy years passed, until Gu Nan fell ill.
Gu Nan went to the hospital for a checkup and found that, given the medical level at the time, there was absolutely no possibility of curing his illness.
Therefore, Gu Nan did not tell Su Niannian about his illness, but silently endured everything.
Moreover, they became even more diligent in earning money and saving money than before.
Gu Nan hoped that when his life ended, Su Niannian could live a good life with the money he left behind.
As Gu Nan lay dying, Su Niannian's maternal grandfather recognized her as his own.
However, it was too late. Even the most renowned doctors and practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine at the time could not pull Gu Nan back from the brink of death.
"When I learned that you were nearing the end, I really wanted to leave this world with you."
“I feel like the first half of my life was terrible. I can’t imagine how I would live without you.”
"I can't imagine why God is so cruel to me."
"That day, you held my hand and told me that you wanted me to promise you that even if you were gone, I would live a good life..."
"I didn't want to agree, but the expectation in your eyes at that time made it impossible for me to refuse."
"You're like a porcelain doll; if I don't agree to your request, you'll shatter instantly."
Su Niannian leaned against Gu Nan's chest and murmured something.
Gu Nan's eyes reddened.
"At that time, I must have felt very powerless. I wanted to protect the person I wanted to protect, but I was powerless to do so because my own life was coming to an end."
"And then... after I died, did you listen to me and live a good life?"
Gu Nan's voice became hoarse, and his throat felt like something was stuck, making it difficult to breathe.
Gu Nan had always considered himself a capable person, but at that time, lying on his sickbed, he must have felt utterly powerless.
"You even told me back then to find someone who loves me and then remarry," Su Niannian said with a smile, suddenly remembering this.
But after saying that, Su Niannian felt her nose sting.
Gu Nan must have felt so terrible saying those words back then.
Who would willingly entrust their most beloved person to another?
If possible, if still possible, who wouldn't want to stay with the one they love and grow old together?
Her smile vanished, and Su Niannian's tears flowed uncontrollably.
Gu Nan hugged Su Niannian and gently patted her shoulder to comfort her.
At that moment, both of them felt very sad.
"Don't cry, at least we're still together now, aren't we?" Gu Nan comforted Su Niannian in a low voice.
“I’ve already accepted all of this. You must be feeling much worse than I am right now.”
"I'm sorry to tell you about such a tragic past life," Su Niannian said, raising her hand to touch Gu Nan's face.
Gu Nan shook his head. "No, knowing all this will only make me cherish you and us even more."
Seeing Gu Nan's response, Su Niannian answered his question.
“I am living a good life, but you are in my heart, rooted there. There is no longer any gap in my life that anyone can walk in.”
