Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1941: Chapter 1940: If You Fall for Someone You Can’t Love

In these past few months, Wen Ran had grown accustomed to Bai Xiaoxiao’s occasional daydreaming and absent-mindedness.

She called out "Xiaoxiao" twice, drawing Bai Xiaoxiao’s drifting thoughts back, who then looked at Wen Ran with a blank expression, "Ranran, what did you just say?"

"I said if this flavor of cake doesn’t taste good, we can try another. The strawberry flavor is nice, would you like to try it?"

As Wen Ran spoke, she fed a spoonful of cake to Bai Xiaoxiao.

Bai Xiaoxiao shook her head, her gaze inadvertently sweeping towards the outside of the glass window, and in the next second, her expression slightly changed.

Her breath caught as she saw that familiar figure, a feeling hard to describe, like an invisible hand instantly grabbed her.

Through the large glass window, she saw the man getting out of the car, not alone, but with Wen Jin.

The two of them didn’t come to this cake shop but went to the café next door.

He walked with a slight limp.

The originally tall and handsome figure seemed thinner, particularly that back view brought an ache to Bai Xiaoxiao’s heart.

Wen Ran, attracted by Bai Xiaoxiao’s gaze, followed her look out the window, and when she saw the two enter the café next door, her eyes widened in shock, and she worriedly called out, "Xiaoxiao."

Bai Xiaoxiao withdrew her gaze, meeting the worried eyes of Wen Ran and forced a smile, "Ranran, when did he come to G City?"

"Xiaoxiao, you wouldn’t think I told him we were here, would you?"

Wen Ran innocently explained, "I don’t know either. I heard his leg hasn’t recovered, how could he come to G City? Could he be here on a business trip?"

Bai Xiaoxiao looked at Wen Ran’s innocent expression and faintly smiled, within her heart full of sourness surged a sense of desolation.

She believed Ranran didn’t lie to her, she also didn’t know Luo Haofeng came to G City.

The only possibility was that Luo Haofeng didn’t tell Mo Xiuchen, nor wanted her to know.

By now, they no longer had any relationship.

Not only that, but Luo Haofeng also has a girlfriend now; it is normal that he wouldn’t want her to know he came to G City.

If Qiao Siyi knew there were still any ties between them, she would surely feel sad.

"Xiaoxiao, if you want to know, I’ll call my brother and ask." Wen Ran looked at Bai Xiaoxiao with heartache, actually more willing to believe that Luo Haofeng came specifically to see Bai Xiaoxiao.

But, ever since Luo Haofeng got together with Qiao Siyi, Wen Ran hadn’t heard from Mo Xiuchen even a word about Luo Haofeng caring for Bai Xiaoxiao.

Thinking of this, Wen Ran inevitably felt another pang of sadness.

Bai Xiaoxiao’s smile had a hint of bitterness, "Ranran, don’t disturb him, he and Qiao Siyi should be doing well."

Feelings can grow, and Bai Xiaoxiao did not dislike Qiao Siyi. She felt with time, Luo Haofeng would surely like Qiao Siyi too.

Their past love left both emotionally exhausted, now that Luo Haofeng is starting a new life, even if her heart is full of pain and sorrow, she does not want to disturb him.

In the café next door.

Wen Jin and Luo Haofeng each ordered a cup of coffee; they also chose a table by the window.

Seeing Luo Haofeng staring out the window, Wen Jin spoke plainly, "Actually, we could go to the cake shop next door."

"Just seeing her from afar is satisfying enough for me." Luo Haofeng’s lips curved into a gentle smile.

No pain compares; when he doesn’t even have the right to see Xiaoxiao, he realized that even seeing her from a distance is a happiness.

"Doesn’t it exhaust you to keep tormenting yourself like this?"

Wen Jin sighed; since he decided to marry Qiao Siyi, why not simply forget Bai Xiaoxiao.

Luo Haofeng’s expression changed slightly, self-deprecatingly said, "I don’t want this either. If possible, I wish I could let go of Xiaoxiao and wholeheartedly be good to Qiao Siyi."

This way, it wouldn’t be so painful.

But because he couldn’t let go, he came.

"Then try to let go of Xiaoxiao. When you marry Qiao Siyi in the future, if you still think about Xiaoxiao, it will be harmful, not only to you, to Qiao Siyi, or to Xiaoxiao."

His father was a good example; unless you let go, none of the three would find happiness.

Luo Haofeng looked at Wen Jin, suddenly smiled, a smile filled with sorrow and solitude, "Ah Jin, when you truly love someone, you’ll know that letting go is harder than cutting through bone and flesh."

Because of his words, Wen Jin’s gaze slightly dimmed, lowering his head to stare at the coffee in front of him.

"If you know it’s impossible, it’s not that you can’t let go."

His voice was low, carrying a touch of bitterness only he could taste, after speaking, he gently sipped his coffee.

Others said he had never loved anyone, didn’t know the bitterness of love, the pain of longing, but he knew how tormenting it was to love someone he couldn’t love.

Luo Haofeng, lost in his own thoughts, didn’t catch the bitterness in Wen Jin’s words.

"Don’t tell Ranran that I came to G City."

Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao were as close as sisters, if Wen Ran knew, she would surely tell Bai Xiaoxiao.

"Maybe they already saw just now."

Wen Jin glanced out the window, calmly stating.

As his words fell, he saw Wen Ran and Bai Xiaoxiao leaving; by the roadside, in front of a car, Wen Ran watched Bai Xiaoxiao get in first, before bending down herself into the car.

From beginning to end, they didn’t even glance towards the café.

But Luo Haofeng’s gaze seemed fixed on that roadside spot, unwilling to blink as he watched that figure get into the car.

His heart’s emotions were like waves surging.

He once imagined, when Xiaoxiao was pregnant, he must stay by her side every day.

Later, when Xiaoxiao broke up with him over old matters, he shamelessly showed up in front of her, even promising her he wouldn’t appear again, he still watched her quietly from the shadows.

Watching from the shadows then, however, was different from this moment.

At that time, he hoped Xiaoxiao could let go of the past and accept him again. He even prepared, to stay in G City long-term on this trip.

However, he ultimately didn’t realize the promise he made to her in his heart.

The Xiaoxiao now probably hates him.

Clearly said he would wait for her for a lifetime but changed midway, not only abandoning her, but also their shared child.

Besides hating him, does Xiaoxiao have any other feelings...

Bai Xiaoxiao sat upright in the car, even knowing that through the car window glass, even if she looked towards the café opposite, the people inside wouldn’t see her.

But, she didn’t dare to turn her head to look out.

Afraid of seeing what she doesn’t want to see, she feared it would shake her heart.

The baby in her belly seemed to sense her emotional fluctuations, moved restlessly. She wanted to lower her head immediately, her hand gently caressing her abdomen, soothing the baby.

Quietly she said in her heart, baby, your dad is here, did you see just now too?
