Chapter 1219: Chapter 1217: Opening Up

No matter the reason, Wang Dadong lied to Lin Shiyan, so he was actually a little uneasy at this moment.

Love is the thing that cannot tolerate lies. Even though his intention was to protect Lin Shiyan, he still lied, didn’t he?

“Dear wife, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hide it from you. I was just afraid you would be hurt because of me, afraid you wouldn’t like this version of me…”

“Husband, I love you.”

“Actually, I’ve always wanted to tell you… you, what did you just say?” Wang Dadong, still trying to explain, was suddenly stunned.

Stunned by Lin Shiyan’s words.

Both “husband” and “I love you” were words Lin Shiyan had never said to him before.

Since Wang Dadong met Lin Shiyan from the first day, he had shamelessly called her his wife, but she never agreed to be called that. She hadn’t formally said the words “I love you” nor had she called him husband!

The word “husband” encompasses too many things; it’s a form of trust, acceptance, and signifies a woman’s true love for a man.

Throughout the journey, the two had experienced too many ups and downs.

Because everyone’s personality is different, and the values of men and women are different, even ordinary people will still have conflicts when together.

For Lin Shiyan and Wang Dadong, this was even more so.

One is a proud and domineering female CEO, the other is a king in the Mercenary World.

It can be said that the two are not people of the same world. Both have their own views on life and values, and it’s basically impossible to make them accept each other’s ideas.

For example, Lin Shiyan used to think that men should focus on their careers rather than just sweet-talking, only trying to make girls happy.

Such men might be liked by ignorant young girls but ultimately cannot rise to the occasion and are not qualified to be her man.

For Wang Dadong, isn’t a career just money? If he wanted, he could instantly have endless wealth.

He just needed to take up an A-level task, and perhaps the reward for once could equal the monthly profit of the Shiyan Group.

Perhaps you might think that the monthly profit of the Shiyan Group isn’t that impressive.

But think about it, how many people contribute to the monthly profit of the Shiyan Group? That’s the collective effort of thousands of employees generating wealth together.

And Wang Dadong just needs to take on an A-level task. An A-level task he can complete alone, spending at most a week.

He earns in one week what a thousand people earn in a month. Doesn’t that say something?

It’s no exaggeration to say that money is like dirt to Wang Dadong.

Returning to the city, Wang Dadong just wants to be a regular person, so his focus is on Lin Shiyan.

Compared to making money, naturally, he’s more concerned about how to make Lin Shiyan happy.

Because of their different focuses, it leads to a deviation in values.

Therefore, Wang Dadong often puts in a lot of effort for little gain.

And Wang Dadong feels that Lin Shiyan is someone who places her career above everything, perhaps even a bit cold-blooded.

So, the two often have conflicts, and they are quite intense.

Furthermore, both are very proud and often unwilling to explain many things, leading to minor issues escalating into more heated conflicts.

Like the matter concerning Yang Wanru’s father, even though Lin Shiyan knew Wang Dadong misunderstood her, she wouldn’t explain it to Wang Dadong.

In the end, Wang Dadong directly left home.

Logically speaking, these two people aren’t really suited to be lovers.

But when Lin Shiyan said, “Husband, I love you” to Wang Dadong, the two finally became true lovers.

This is love, there is no reason behind it.

True love is simple, it’s not about understanding the other person in-depth, nor changing their views, trust, acceptance, and understanding are enough.

Of course, saying these words is easy, doing them is hard.

Because people tend to be particular, especially with those they love, leading them to make a big deal out of a casual word or action.

There’s really no need for that; it not only exhausts the other person but drains you as well.

No one in this world is perfect; Wang Dadong isn’t perfect, Lin Shiyan isn’t perfect either.

If you always focus on the imperfections in the other person, creating conflicts, such love can only lead to destruction.

In the past ten months, Wang Dadong and Lin Shiyan have learned one thing: if you think the other person hasn’t done something right, then do it for them.

So, they eventually achieved true results and found true love.

Lin Shiyan held Wang Dadong’s face with both hands, smiling like a peach blossom, “I said, Husband, I love you.”

“I love you too, wife!” The two embraced tightly.

“Damn it, are you looking to die?” Just as the two were lost in each other’s eyes, a loud screech of brakes sounded, followed by a torrent of curses.

It turned out, the two were standing in the middle of the road at the time.

Although the population in America is sparse, and there aren’t many cars on the road, few doesn’t mean none.

“Sorry, sorry.” The two quickly apologized to the person.

“If you want to get cozy, get a room; what’s the point of being lovey-dovey on the main road!” The driver cursed away as he drove off.

The two exchanged a smile.

“You know, dear wife, I think he’s right,” Wang Dadong blinked at Lin Shiyan.

“Me too…”

Next, the two found a hotel and got a room.

It wasn’t a five-star hotel, nor was it a small hotel, because both had a fear of small hotels.

This was bound to be a sleepless night; the two had a lot to talk about.

After taking a bath, they lay on the big bed in the hotel, Lin Shiyan lying on Wang Dadong, her fingers gently caressing the scars under Wang Dadong’s robe.

This wasn’t the first time Lin Shiyan saw these scars. Previously she didn’t know how they came to be; now she seemed to know a bit.

Wang Dadong’s hand mischievously landed on a certain fun part of the female CEO’s body.

“Husband, you speak first,” Lin Shiyan said softly.

She originally thought she might never utter these corny words in her lifetime, but at this moment, it’s so natural and harmonious without the slightest awkwardness or pretense.

Wang Dadong nodded seriously and said, “Alright, I’m going to speak.”

“Go ahead.” Lin Shiyan listened intently.

“Wife, can I take off the bra? No good feeling.”
