Chapter 709: Future

I took a deep breath and tried my best to calm myself down.

“Ye Qian is the calmest and most intelligent woman I’ve ever met. Her IQ and EQ are second to none among the people I know. She never lets her emotions get the best of her. In her eyes, there are only gains and losses. I once thought that a woman like her would never fall in love with anyone in her lifetime. She only loves herself.”

Cousin Mo looked a little surprised. It was obvious that the Ye Qian in front of him and the Ye Qian I mentioned were two different people.

“If she were the Ye Qian of the past, she would calmly discuss with me how to save your life. She would find something equivalent to your life to exchange for my blood. She wouldn’t be like this, all clammed-up because of your instructions. Do you know how anxious she is? I’ve never seen this on Ye Qian before. She only cares about herself, but she is willing to bend her principles for you. How deep does she love you?”

Cousin Mo didn’t say anything, but I could see the shock in his eyes.

“She won’t tell me anything. She said that you’ve told her not to. Cousin Mo, how did you win over a cold person like Ye Qian?” I asked him in a relaxed tone.

Cousin Mo heaved a sigh of relief. He leaned back, and I placed the pillow behind him.

“Nanxing, Ye Qian has always been full of praise for you. She admires you very much. She said that you are the most unrestrained and carefree girl she has ever seen.”

Cousin Mo lowered his eyes and looked at the blanket in front of him. Under the blanket were his legs that couldn’t walk. “Nanxing, I know my physical condition very well, so I can’t drag Ye Qian down. In the future, can you take care of her for me? Financially, she’s independent enough, but emotionally, she’s a little girl without a sense of security. Her heart is fragile and sensitive. It’s interesting that she trusts you this much. Promise me that you’ll protect her for me. I hope that she can find her own happiness.”

This blockhead!

“Only you can give her happiness,” I retorted bluntly.

Cousin Mo smiled wryly. “I’m a person who’s on the brink of death. How can I do that?”

I was stunned. “So, don’t you have a romantic relationship with her? You haven’t… done it?”

I looked at cousin Mo in disbelief.

Cousin Mo nodded slightly. “She’s a woman with self-respect. I don’t want to drag her down with me.”

Heh! For real?!

In my previous life, Ye Qian was a person who didn’t care about anything for the sake of benefits. She could make Jing Ning abandon his wife and children for her.

In this life, Ye Qian was also a straightforward person. She would never drag things out.

I could understand why she rejected Jing Ning. This was because she had never considered Jing Ning a worthwhile man. She didn’t even have the slightest bit of sincerity towards Jing Ning. It had always been Jing Ning who imagined everything.

But I didn’t expect Ye Qian would change so much after meeting my Cousin Mo.

It was a strange world.

“Protect your own woman. Don’t count on others.” I couldn’t help but feel a little annoyed.

Cousin Mo wasn’t annoyed. He looked at me quietly. There was a faint smile on his lips. “It’s been so many years, but you haven’t changed at all. You’re still that awkward child. Even if you’ve promised someone in your heart, you won’t admit it on your lips.”

I was stunned and quickly asked, “Does that mean I’m a lot like Cousin Zhuo and first uncle?”

My voice was very soft because I didn’t have any confidence in this matter.
