Chapter 2567: Chapter 2567: Surprises Galore in the Proposal (11)

From when Meimei was a newborn waiting to be fed, to when she started babbling and taking her first steps... he never came back.

Gradually, people around her couldn’t help but urge her, give up! Waiting for someone who won’t come back is pointless.

She didn’t believe them and started shouting back, desperately proving that he wasn’t dead, that he promised he’d definitely come back, he definitely would!

Later on, almost everyone presumed he was dead, and she gradually stopped arguing, except for holding onto his photo, waiting to meet him in her dreams.

Yet even so, she never got to see him.

It was as if he hated her; after Meimei was born, she no longer dreamed of him.

Clinging to such fragmented memories, she thought she would keep living like this...

From hope to disappointment, and then to despair, she spent three whole years unable to move on.

But just when she thought nothing would ever change, he finally appeared, just like she had hoped in her dreams, holding roses, so irresistibly handsome and domineeringly bold, coming up to her with deep affection, saying: "Mingmei, I’m back!"

Ye Mingmei clenched her fists tightly, her nails dug into her palms, and blood seeped through her fingers, but she didn’t let go.

She was afraid this was a dream; only through pain could she believe that none of this was an illusion, not a scene she had imagined...

"After I fell into the sea, it was Dan Hanjie who saved me. He sent me to Diwu Zexuan’s lab but sealed off all information about me because no one was sure if I could survive."

Bai Zheng’s voice was very soft, his low and enchanting tone seemed like a distant echo drifting over.

Looking at the emotionally unstable Ye Mingmei, he still knelt on one knee, his deep and mischievous eyes fixed on her without blinking.

He had never said he was grateful to Dan Hanjie, grateful that he didn’t let Ye Mingmei see him at his most pathetic moment.

Grateful that he blocked all news about him, so if he truly died, Ye Mingmei would believe he was just missing, perhaps still somewhere in the world, and would eventually return to her and their daughter.

"I was in a coma for three years; those three years were like a nightmare, turning my world upside down. The moment I woke up, I didn’t even know who I was."

Bai Zheng softly parted his lips.

Dan Hanjie destroyed all his identity records, allowing Yu Xiuzhun to completely ’die’ in that accident, as a way to end the mistakes he had made.

Yu Xiuzhun was dead, deservedly so.

The person who came back to life was Bai Zheng, a clean, upright man, and he wanted to use his own strength to protect them, to slowly make his way back to them.

He knew he should wait until the timing was perfect, but he was too impatient. Every night when all was quiet, he couldn’t help but sneak into the Ye Family Villa, quietly guarding by her window, watching her and their daughter sleep peacefully, only then feeling like his heart was still beating.

But such guarding is tormenting!

Every time he watched her call out his name in her dreams and saw their daughter endlessly drawing ’Daddy’, his heart felt like it was being nibbled by ants, bit by bit being consumed.

He longed to hold her in his arms, to tell her personally that he was right there, right by her side!

"I spent a month escaping from Diwu Zexuan’s lab, but it took me two more months to get to you. Do you remember the question you asked me when Meimei went missing?"
