Chapter 337: Chapter 337 I Will Never Go Back on My Word

Wen Ran felt uneasy after asking this question.

She was afraid that the harmonious scene would shatter like a bubble because of her words.

Fortunately, Fu Chenlie didn’t change his expression.

He smiled faintly and said, "She is the past, you are the present and the future."

"What kind of answer is that?"

"Compared to the past, the present and future are more important. If I say this, you should understand, right?"

Wen Ran’s eyes flickered. After a brief silence, she smiled lightly and pursued, "Why don’t you just speak plainly?"

"As long as the meaning is clear, isn’t that enough?"

"It’s clear."

In his heart, does she still lose to Jiang Wan Ning?

She knew that the first love buried deeply within him wouldn’t be so easily replaced.

His feelings for her were perhaps only a faint liking, insignificant at best.

Thinking this, Wen Ran laughed at herself.

Fu Chenlie caught the expression on her face, frowned slightly, grabbed her hand, and positioned her to stand right in front of him, asserting his stance: "Wen Ran, I genuinely want to be your husband."

"Mm." She responded indifferently, her attitude seemingly unconvinced.

He raised his tone and asked, "You don’t believe me?"

Wen Ran looked up and smiled faintly, "I do believe you. Before Ms. Wan Ning comes back, you genuinely want to be my husband. But once she returns, you’ll probably want her to be your wife, won’t you?"

The man’s face changed slightly: "Is this how you think of me?"

Wen Ran tilted her head and casually looked elsewhere, speaking calmly, "Your feelings for Ms. Wan Ning run deep. We are merely bound by an agreement marriage. Isn’t it normal for me to think this way?"

Fu Chenlie was far too clever.

He almost instantly understood the implication behind those words.

The man curled his lips into a smile: "Mrs. Fu, are you worried?"

She met his gaze with an indifferent attitude: "What would I have to worry about?"

Fu Chenlie’s gaze deepened, and he spoke in a low voice: "You’re worried that once Wan Ning returns, I’ll leave you—divorce you?"

These words struck precisely at Wen Ran’s weakest point, causing a tide of bitterness to rise within her heart.

This was indeed her worry.

If Fu Chenlie’s indulgence and patience with her were all founded on the premise of Jiang Wan Ning’s absence, then once Jiang Wan Ning returned, all of it would collapse. By that time, she would drown in the agony of losing everything, while he could reunite with his first love in blissful harmony...

Just imagining it brought her unbearable pain.

She’d rather temper her fleeting feelings now, forcing herself to rationally face their relationship, than find herself crying with nowhere to turn later.

Just as Wen Ran was contemplating "self-preservation," her chin was suddenly gripped by the man’s strong hand.

He adjusted her face to meet his gaze directly, his deep and sincere eyes locked onto hers, and he spoke in a low tone: "Rest assured, even if Wan Ning comes back, I won’t divorce you. When I say I genuinely want to be your husband, I mean it—I won’t go back on my word."

These words took her by surprise.

A hint of astonishment appeared on her face, leaving her temporarily unsure of how to respond. After several seconds, she tentatively probed, "Really?"

He nodded earnestly: "Yes."

Wen Ran lowered her gaze, secretly curling her lips into a smile.

Her unruly heart began to stir again, even daring to dream of sharing a life with him until their hair turned gray.

If she truly could experience a normal marriage with Fu Chenlie and grow old with him, she would naturally feel joy.

After all, she liked his looks and demeanor, and she admired his ability and methods.
