For a moment, panic flooded Wan Qingyun's heart, yet that broad, firm chest also brought her a sliver of security.

Jiang Junyi carried Wan Qingyun toward the hall. It took a while before Wan Qingyun snapped back to her senses, and she said coldly:

"Young Master Jiang, please put me down."

"If you're doing this for your own amusement, I'd rather die than agree."

At that moment, Jiang Junyi could feel Wan Qingyun's body trembling slightly, as if she were angry.

He knew he couldn't keep pushing this.

Jiang Junyi set Wan Qingyun down on the soft sofa, crouched in front of her, and said earnestly:

"I'm not doing this for fun, nor am I playing some kind of joke on you."

He took her slender hand and placed it against his own cheek:

"I'm telling you very seriously, Miss Wan Qingyun, I want to marry you."

Wan Qingyun pulled her hand back as if startled.

His sincere and resolute words left her momentarily unsure what this man was really up to.

She let out a soft breath: "You're the eldest young master of the Jiang Family in Jiang City. I'm nothing but a disabled blind girl, worthless to you."

"Please, Young Master Jiang, don't say such things again."

Jiang Junyi's head ached at her words.

Indeed, showing up out of the blue and declaring you want to marry someone would naturally make them suspicious of your motives.

He thought for a moment, then raised his hand and called out: "Uncle Wu, bring it over."

Uncle Wu gave a slight bow and handed over a document.

Jiang Junyi placed the document into Wan Qingyun's hands and said softly: "First, this is my sincerity."

Wan Qingyun touched it lightly and discovered—this document was actually in Braille!

After carefully feeling it out, she realized it was a proxy rights agreement for 10% of the Jiang Family's industries, with her entitled to a 1% commission.

Considering the Jiang Family's dominant presence in Jiang City, 10% of their industries already surpassed the vast majority of top-tier families.

Even with just a 1% commission, it far exceeded what the Wan Family had once offered.

The value of this document was clear.

"Are you insane?! You want to give me proxy rights over 10% of the Jiang Family's industries?" Wan Qingyun's voice was far from calm.

Jiang Junyi gently grasped her soft hand, his face full of sincerity: "Qingyun, the truth is, you left a mark on my heart when we were very young."

"All these years, I've been busy improving myself, traveling abroad, all so that one day I could shield you from the wind and rain..."

"But I was still too late."

"I never imagined your life would be so rough, and the Wan Family of the past..."

At this point, Jiang Junyi's face showed a hint of gloom. Even though Wan Qingyun couldn't see it, he felt the emotion needed to land properly.

Just then, Uncle Wu suddenly spoke: "Young Madam, I've watched the young master grow up. The hardships he endured abroad were no small matter."

"From corporate management to border peacekeeping, from product operations to special operations."

"The young master has both dived into vast financial systems and fought his way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood—all with one goal: to have enough strength to protect you."

Jiang Junyi whipped his head around to look at Uncle Wu: Damn, Uncle Wu?!

Uncle Wu glanced at Jiang Junyi, gave a slight nod, and flashed a thumbs-up: Young master, I've got you.

"Uncle Wu! Why are you saying all that?" Jiang Junyi feigned anger, quickly playing along.

Then he seized the chance to squeeze Wan Qingyun's little hand to earn Pure Love Points, and said softly: "Qingyun, don't listen to Uncle Wu's nonsense. It's not that dramatic."

"But I did learn quite a bit abroad."

Wan Qingyun fell silent as she listened to the two of them, not even noticing Jiang Junyi's small gesture.

She didn't fully believe what Jiang Junyi and Uncle Wu said. Even if it were all true, she couldn't trust someone unconditionally.

Right now, she was pondering one question—if she had the Jiang Family as cover, could she secretly build her own power?

With this strength, she could find the ones who had destroyed the Wan Family one by one! Take revenge!

This is an opportunity. I won't let anyone bully me again...

As for marriage...

Hah, I never had any illusions about that from the start.

If he wants to play along, then let him.

With that thought, Wan Qingyun spoke slowly: "I understand."

Hearing Wan Qingyun's agreement, Jiang Junyi's eyes lit up, and he tightly grasped her jade-like hands: "I know you might have doubts about my feelings right now, but that's fine."

He placed her small hand over his heart:

"Time will prove my sincerity."

"I will defy my instincts, go against my nature, and love you forever."

Hearing such a fervent and unabashed confession, even Wan Qingyun—who only harbored thoughts of using him—felt two blushes rise to her cheeks. She gently pushed against Jiang Junyi.

"You... you're too close..."

Jiang Junyi glanced at the distance between them; it seemed his face was nearly pressed against hers.

He quickly coughed twice and leaned back: "Qingyun, what do you usually do? I want to get to know you."

Wan Qingyun thought to herself, if she was going to use him... she couldn't just keep refusing...

She understood the principle of giving a big stick, then a sweet date.

So, Wan Qingyun responded to Jiang Junyi's question: "I read."

"Can I take a look at your study?" Jiang Junyi pressed his advantage.

Wan Qingyun gave a slight nod: "You may. Young Master Jiang, please move my wheelchair."

Wheelchair? How am I supposed to get close to you with a wheelchair?

Jiang Junyi shot a look at Uncle Wu, who caught on instantly.

In a flash, he appeared before the wheelchair, and with a swift motion—

"Crrrrrack~"

"Ah~ Qingyun, your wheelchair broke in that little scuffle just now..."

The corner of Wan Qingyun's mouth twitched slightly; she thought she'd just heard her wheelchair shatter: "It's fine, I have a spare..."

But Jiang Junyi cut her off: "Hey~ We're family now, some things I can handle!"

A bad feeling rose in Wan Qingyun's heart, and she quickly tried to speak: "I don't need—ah!"

Jiang Junyi scooped her up in a princess carry again.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the study." Jiang Junyi's voice sounded by Wan Qingyun's ear, his warm breath making the tips of her ears turn red.

Still, aside from carrying her, Jiang Junyi didn't make any improper moves, which put her somewhat at ease.

Under Wan Qingyun's guidance, Jiang Junyi arrived at the study and gently set her down on the wooden chair by the desk.

The study was simple, with a wide variety of books on the shelves.

"This is where I usually stay. Boring, isn't it?" Wan Qingyun said with self-deprecation.

Jiang Junyi fell silent for a moment. This small space was where the young woman before him had spent most of her life.

Even so, she had grown strong, survived, and strived toward some goal.

Jiang Junyi smiled: "I won't say I love this kind of atmosphere too. I know this is the place that imprisoned you for half your life."

"I have no right to comfort you by calling this a nice place, pretending it's some serene setting."

He crouched beside Wan Qingyun and gently took her hand:

"I only hope that my arrival can become a beam of light in your gray world."

After saying this, Jiang Junyi laughed twice and scratched his head: "Was that a bit narcissistic?"

Wan Qingyun covered her mouth with a light laugh: "It seems so."

"Thump!"

Jiang Junyi's heart pounded violently.
