Chapter 938 - Recollection of the Mad Rogue (1/2)

The young woman walked up to the empty deck chair and sat down beside the man. She gazed at his still fast asleep face, a faint warmth in her heart. It was really hard to look back on that nightmare three years ago. Fortunately, that was all behind them now.

As long as she could be with him, even if it was just quietly staying by his side, she felt truly blessed.

The young woman fell asleep. As she opened her eyes, she found herself walking down the aisle, her father by her side. At the altar stood the young man wearing a suit, a kind smile on his face.

This beautiful dream was of her happiest moment alive. A year ago, she’d married the man of her dreams in a small private setting. After which they took their time traveling the world.

Still half asleep, she slowly woke up to a tickling sensation on her chest. Opening her drowsy eyes, she found the young man had woken up. His hands were on her breasts, softly kneading them.

“Nie Yan! You ass!” Xie Yao pouted.

“You look so sexy. How could I not?” Nie Yan whispered in Xie Yao’s ear with a teasing smile.

This was the very Nie Yan who got shot in the heart three years ago. Against all expectations, he’d pulled through. If the world were to find out, who knew what kind of large waves that would set off. Back then, Nie Yan was only an inch from death. Even with the ability of his pocket watch to alter the direction of the bullet as well as Bayonet’s warning shout, he still hadn’t had enough time to dodge. He only moved a little to the side before the bullet pierced his heart.

Nie Yan had a massive haemorrhage of the heart. Fortunately, two special forces military doctors performed an on sight procedure to seal the wounds with a special coagulant. This simple treatment preserved his life until he arrived at the hospital.

Nie Yan was fortunate to have such a strong body. If it were an ordinary person, they’d have died without a shadow of a doubt.

Huahai First Hospital unfortunately couldn’t do much for Nie Yan. His heart was too badly damaged. Even if they did all they could to patch him back up, he wouldn’t make a full recovery. There would be a loss to the function of his heart. His only hope was to find a match for a heart transplant. However, though the technology for it had advanced tremendously, hearts were in short supply. Especially since it was forbidden by law for a healthy person to offer up their heart. So, Huahai First Hospital had done what they could, then frozen Nie Yan in. The next morning, he was transported away.

Two maids walked over toward the beach before promptly turning around and bolting away, their cheeks a deep red.

Xie Yao finally found some strength and shot Nie Yan a reproachful look.

“Don’t blame me, I’m innocent. You asked for it,” Nie Yan looked at Xie Yao with a smile on his face.

“Stop it.” Xie Yao slapped Nie Yan’s chest, her cheeks a gorgeous pink.

Xie Yao draped a jacket over her shoulders, secretly glancing at Nie Yan. Maybe this time she would get pregnant. The reason she’d seduced Nie Yan with her outfit today was because she’d just ovulated. After being married for a year, their feelings for each other had grown all the more profound. She really wanted to give Nie Yan a baby. Thinking back to what just happened, she couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. Not to mention they’d even been spotted. Fortunately, apart from Nie Yan, there were only women on the island. Though even with them, she wasn’t sure if she could ever look them in the eyes again.

“Let’s head back.” Looking at Xie Yao’s embarrassed look, Nie Yan laughed.

One man, one woman. They walked along a trail to the middle of the island, where a castle towered over the trees. It was an auspicious and peaceful scene, as though the outside world couldn’t disturb their tranquil life.
