Chapter 780: You Are My Heart

However, it was fortunate that such a thing had not happened. She did not have to bear a burden to be with Mobai. She could hug and kiss him like they were now and then go to sleep.

Si Mobai looked at Feng Tianlan lying down with her chin supported by both hands. Her bright eyes fixed on him while her mouth opened and closed. Her loveable face was sincere as she spoke.

“Even if the world were one where the strong prey on the weak, we must have our bottom line and principles in life. My bottom line is I will return the same favor to whoever hurts me. But whoever hurts my people, even one bit, I will return it to him a hundredfold. That is my weakness and also my trigger point. Whoever triggers it is dead,” she said.

Si Mobai raised his hand and gently tucked her parted hair behind her ear. He gazed at her bright eyes and asked, “Then what am I to you?”

“My weak spot, trigger point, and more importantly, my heart,” Feng Tianlan replied as she got up to sit cross-legged. She watched Si Mobai sit up as well to lean against the headboard of the bed, then took his hand, and placed it over the spot where her heart was as she said seriously, “Mobai, if I said they are the people in my world, then you are my world. Without you, my world would collapse.”

“I am your world?” Si Mobai’s beautiful eyes instantly brightened. They were as vivid as the most brilliant star in the night. The curled corners of his lips shone like a rising sun, lighting up the night.

Lan’er had said he was her world. Without him, it would collapse!

Feng Tianlan nodded seriously and continued, saying, “Big Brother Jin and Sister Lin are my family and friends. They are just like parts of my body. I would suffer immense pain if I lost one part. However, I would still be able to live on. But, Mobai, you are my heart. Can a person still live without a heart?”

Si Mobai looked at her with a serious expression and smiled as he said, “Lan’er, I understand. There will be no next time.”

If there were a next time, he would help her save and protect all the people she cared about. He would not get so wrapped up in his jealousy, lose his mind, and be suspicious of her love as he had this time.

“So, if I lost a part of me because of my heart, then no matter how important he is to me, and even if he’s by my side, I’ll hate it. I’d rather be the person who died,” she said.

Si Mobai’s face turned cold, and he said in a lowered voice, “Don’t talk nonsense. Didn’t I help you save a life this time? I’ll help you in the future.”

How could she utter the word death so casually?

Feng Tianlan smiled and put her arms around his neck. She said, “Mobai, you have to believe that I love you more than anyone else.”

Because the feelings she had for others fell between familial affection and friendship, they would never rise to the level of love.

“Why do you speak so sweetly today?” Si Mobai beamed happily and lightly patted her back. It felt really good and genuinely pleasant with Lan’er around.

Feng Tianlan let go of him and stared at him. She rebuked him, saying, “It was all because you hid. Do you know that when I couldn’t find you, I thought you really didn’t want me? It felt like my world had collapsed.”

“How is that? You only searched around once and actually stopped looking. You even said you didn’t care.” At that time, his heart had turned cold and was shattered. He felt that it was so painful he could not breathe. That feeling was still very clear to him at this time.

“I thought you really left me alone, so I said it in anger.” Feng Tianlan smiled as she said, “It was fortunate that I said those words. Otherwise, we might have fought for a long time.”

“Huh?” Si Mobai looked at her in bewilderment.

Feng Tianlan thought about her emotions at that time and said, “I was really angry and wanted to give you the cold shoulder for two days. But I had just finished saying those words when I found you by my side. And all my anger dissipated.”
