Chapter 1034

"I promise, as long as I live for one day, I will protect her for one day; I will absolutely never let her come to harm."

Ning Chen looked at the middle-aged man, his eyes filled with an indescribable preciousness.

The middle-aged man had lived most of his life, dealing with all kinds of people every day; he could tell whether a person was truly lying or not.

Seeing Ning Chen's unreserved gaze and his oath, word by word, the middle-aged man was very satisfied.

He could see the most sincere heart on Ning Chen; this kind of sincerity could not be acted out.

"Good, good, good, I believe you."

Seeing the middle-aged man's face beaming with joy, clearly very satisfied, Lin Yi was almost dumbfounded.

What is this situation? Did Ning Chen's short sentence just conquer the father-in-law?

Lin Yi looked at the middle-aged man, then looked at Ning Chen, countless question marks popping up on his head, so what he just did... was it useless work?

Sensing Lin Yi's dazed state, the middle-aged man was also a shrewd person; he looked at Ning Chen and said, "You have two good brothers; they are great."

Hearing the middle-aged man praise him, Lin Yi felt much more comfortable; he grinned and occasionally patted Facing Huo Jinglin.

He just said it; how could he possibly do useless work.

Facing Huo Jinglin looked at Lin Yi's silly, dazed appearance and subtly shifted to the side; he was not with this fool.

The middle-aged man had passed this hurdle; he shouted into the house, "Wife, come out and cook quickly; it's so late already."

As soon as the words fell, the middle-aged woman walked out smiling, with Gu Yanqi behind her, her face already flushed red.

"I'll go cook; old man, you come help me here first, let the young people chat by themselves."

The middle-aged woman desperately signaled the man with her eyes.

The kitchen door was closed; Gu Yanqi moved to the position where the man had originally sat and sat down.

Her cheeks were crimson, and she dared not lift her head to look at the person opposite.

Just now in the room, after chatting with her mother for a while, she had leaned against the door to eavesdrop.

The soundproofing of the house was not good; the sounds outside could be heard clearly.

When she heard what Lin Yi and Facing Huo Jinglin said about the things Ning Chen did for her, and Ning Chen's own promise, her whole body was almost shy enough to smoke.

Yet her mother even teased her, "This young man is not bad; Miss, get along well with him."

Now, Gu Yanqi did not dare to make eye contact with Ning Chen at all.

Seeing Gu Yanqi in such a state, how could one not know what had happened.

Lin Yi and Facing Huo Jinglin exchanged a glance; it seemed everything just said had been heard, though they didn't know how much had been heard.

Seeing Gu Yanqi's face full of shyness, Lin Yi gave Ning Chen a look; your person, you solve it.

"Ah, cough, um, suddenly remembered something, we two will go back to the RV first; come call us when it's time to eat, okay?"

Saying this, Lin Yi and Facing Huo Jinglin quickly stood up, rushed to the door, opened it, and left.

The whole process took less than a minute.

Only Ning Chen and Gu Yanqi remained in the living room, which seemed even more awkward.

Gu Yanqi rubbed her hands; what should she do? She simply didn't know what to say.

And Ning Chen had no intention of speaking either; now that Shiya had no memory, Ning Chen feared speaking would expose something; as the saying goes, the more you speak, the more mistakes you make.

"Um, there is a park nearby; shall we go for a walk first?"

Gu Yanqi regretted it immediately after speaking; walking is usually something done after a meal; going out for a walk before eating seemed too strange.

Hearing Gu Yanqi's words, Ning Chen looked at her; seeing Gu Yanqi's face full of regret, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

Although she had lost her memory, many things had not changed, such as her confused appearance in front of him.

Thinking of this, Ning Chen stood up and came to the doorway.

Sensing no sound behind him, he turned his head to look at Gu Yanqi; since he was not a very talkative person, he signaled Gu Yanqi with his eyes, why aren't you following yet?

Seeing this, Gu Yanqi hurriedly stood up, ran lightly to Ning Chen's side, and followed him.

The two walked on the road; the night wind was somewhat cool, blowing on their faces, feeling especially comfortable.

Gu Yanqi, because of this cool breeze, saw the redness on her face gradually fade, and her muddled mind gradually became clear.

The moon hung in the half-sky, especially dazzling; there was no light around, only moonlight sprinkled on the earth, appearing and disappearing.

In the park, there was a stream; the sound of the stream water made noise, like a symphony, ding-dong-ding-dong striking the heart.

Neither Ning Chen nor Gu Yanqi spoke, enjoying this moment of tranquility.

Gu Yanqi turned her face to look at Ning Chen; perhaps because of the cover of night, her action was especially bold, looking at the other party without concealment.

Under the moonlight, Ning Chen's indifferent eyes and handsome face were slightly hazy, as if truly like an immortal.

Gu Yanqi could clearly hear the sound of her own heartbeat, stronger with each beat.

At this very moment, Gu Yanqi could only think of one poem.

On the path, the person is like jade; the Young Master is unmatched in the world.

Perhaps because the atmosphere was simply too good, Gu Yanqi could not control herself; she wanted to know why Ning Chen would make such a promise.

"Ning Chen, I want to ask a question."

Ning Chen did not look at her but responded lightly.

"Mm."

Gu Yanqi took a deep breath to bolster her courage; she said anxiously, "Why did you make such a promise to my father?"

Ning Chen stopped walking; Gu Yanqi turned her head and saw, under the moonlight, the eyes of the person before her were tender beyond belief, flowing like warm water, as if wanting to suck a person in.

While Gu Yanqi was dazed, Ning Chen's voice came to her ears.

"A secret."
