She wanted to straighten her back and escape, but Jiang Ye suddenly hugged her slender waist tightly. Then, he raised his head slightly and gently deepened the kiss.

The taste of candy flowed through her tongue and lips. Jiang Ye’s gentleness was like a light spring rain. All the grievances and regrets that had once been buried in Tang Shuang’s heart were washed away by this spring rain. Her heart was full of vitality.

She responded clumsily until he let go of her, breathing heavily. His voice was hoarse and low. “Okay, the candy has melted.”

If he continued on, he would completely lose control.

Tang Shuang blushed. When she remembered that she had actually taken the initiative to ask for a kiss, she was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a corner to hide in.

Just like that, the two of them ‘shared’ a candy. It was as if they had completely integrated into each other’s lives at that moment.

“Xue’er, if you stay with me, you might suffer a lot in the future. But I swear, I will make sure that things don’t stay this way. Do you trust me?” Jiang Ye hugged her and gently stroked her long silky hair. He buried his head between her neck and greedily breathed in her scent.

When Jiang Ye said this, there was a hint of pleading in his confident voice, as if he was very afraid that Tang Shuang would not believe him. It was rare for him to show such a vulnerable side.

A few minutes ago, Jiang Ye could still harden his heart and ask Tang Xue if she wanted to leave him. Now, he just wanted to use everything he had to keep her by his side.

Tang Shuang did not move. She just hugged Jiang Ye. A tacit understanding naturally formed between the two of them.

Tang Shuang was not afraid of suffering. During her years in the Tang family, she had lived like a female servant and had to endure Tang Xue’s insults. What kind of hardship had she not suffered? In order to teach herself acupuncture without the Tang family knowing, she used silver needles to prick her arm and learned the most essential Chinese medicine knowledge through pain. She persevered through all this.

With Jiang Ye, she didn’t feel like she was suffering. Every second she could see him was the happiest and sweetest moment in her life.

The night was ending. Outside the window, the dawn was breaking.

Tang Shuang slept very peacefully. She curled up slightly in Jiang Ye’s arms, her beautiful and smooth long hair spread on the bed, like a sleeping beauty in fairy tales.

Jiang Ye listened to Tang Shuang’s breathing and felt a sense of satisfaction and joy that he had never felt before. However, at the same time, a trace of regret flashed through his heart—if only he could see her sleeping. She must be very cute, just like an angel…

He was lost in his thoughts when he heard footsteps in the corridor outside the door. The thump of boots against the wooden floor sounded harsh in the early morning.

Jiang Ye frowned. He put on his coat, covered Tang Shuang with a blanket, and left the room.

Jiang Wei looked at Jiang Ye, who was standing in front of him. He looked at Jiang Ye’s face seriously, trying to find a hint of defeat and loneliness. However, he was very disappointed. Jiang Ye’s expression was the same as before. There was a hint of disdain for Jiang Wei in his arrogance and coldness.

He thought resentfully. Hadn’t the people he’d arranged for done enough?

This guy actually didn’t bow down when he saw him.

“What are you doing here?” Jiang Ye had come out early to wait for him because he didn’t want Jiang Wei to disturb Tang Shuang.

Jiang Wei could not understand how Jiang Ye could still be so arrogant. Did he think that he was still the young master of the Jiang family? He was already a cripple. How dare he speak to Jiang Wei like this?

Jiang Wei’s facial expression was a little sinister. After a long time, he suddenly smiled disdainfully and maliciously. “Cousin, how did you feel on your wedding night last night? To be honest, I really didn’t expect that a woman would be willing to marry you when you’re already like this. I think that woman is not only mute, but also a fool. Hahaha…”

Although Jiang Ye could no longer see, his gaze that had lost its focus was still powerful. His tone was cold. “You only dare to be impudent in front of me after I am like this. As expected, you haven’t improved at all. Tell me, why did you come to find me?”

Jiang Wei glared at Jiang Ye fiercely. After Jiang Ye became blind, Jiang Wei really wanted to kill him if it was possible.

Unfortunately, it was not the time yet.

Jiang Wei took a deep breath and slowly repressed his uncontrollable emotions. He revealed a mocking smile and casually lit a cigarette. He took a drag and exhaled a mouthful of smoke at Jiang Ye before saying unhurriedly, “I’m here to inform you to come to the Jiang family’s funeral the day after tomorrow. Of course, since you’ve already left the Jiang family’s house, you can only stay outside. You’re not allowed to join the funeral procession.”

“A funeral?” Jiang’s heart skipped a beat. He had a bad feeling. “What do you mean?”
