Chapter 899: Perhaps They Weren’t Meant to Be
Blood flowed freely from her wound.
He Xiyan acted as though she didn’t feel any pain and only went to wash the blood off her hands and bandaged her wound after she had finished slicing the meat.
She tried to force herself to calm down but after several attempts, she found that she was unable to compose herself. Her entire mind was filled with the image of Jiahang’s mother and cousin’s earlier expressions and the contemptuous and disgusted look in their eyes.
She guessed that they probably thought that she was a terrible woman because she didn’t match Jiahang in any way. Moreover, she even had a child who wasn’t even his biological child, so she felt that most normal families would not be able to accept someone like her.
Her heart sank and she put a hand over her heart. She felt as though her heart hurt intensely and in spite of her best efforts, tears brimmed in her eyes. Her tears gathered to form teardrops that streaked down her pale cheeks.
She suddenly looked down at the ring on her fourth finger. This was an expensive gift from Jiahang before he regained his memories. The ring still looked new and twinkled brightly under the light.
She stared at the ring for a long while and looked a little hesitant but she ultimately slowly took the ring off her finger. Perhaps she shouldn’t continue wearing this ring because she didn’t even know how she would be able to continue her relationship with Jiahang at this moment.
She heard the sound of the door opening and soon, Jiahang came back carrying a bag of groceries.
“Yan Yan…” Chen Jiahang shouted loudly the moment he entered.
She quickly wiped the tears from her eyes and stuffed the ring that she had just taken off into her pocket. Then, she turned to look at Jiahang who walked in.
Chen Jiahang looked at her. Then, he walked over and placed both hands gently on her shoulders in an attempt to comfort her, “Yan Yan, there’s no need for you to feel nervous. I’ll speak to my family about Yuan Yuan. They find it hard to accept at the moment but I will make sure that they acknowledge you as my spouse,” he said with determination.
He had already made up his mind on the way back earlier. He would not let Yan Yan down for this was the woman who stood by him during his difficult time. He had been extremely poor, foolish, and mute but she had stood steadfastly by him.
He would choose to stand by her no matter what life would throw at them and they would grow old together. Even if she remembered that she had another child…
He Xiyan’s eyes were full of pain and she looked very conflicted. Jiahang’s words made her feel even more conflicted because she was no fool and she knew that some conflicts will not disappear even if they promised to accept her. Even if the Gu family were to acknowledge her as Jiahang’s wife, they would look down on her and would treat her contemptuously.
What would she do if she were to marry into the Gu family?
“Jiahang…” she said as she looked up at this man who was more than 20 CM taller than her. She gently stroked his cheek and this was such a familiar sensation and aura to her. However, she guessed that she might not be able to feel his familiar warmth in the future.
“Yan Yan… it’s okay,” Chen Jiahang said as he gently stroked her back and he could see how upset she felt at the moment. “Don’t worry, I will settle this issue. I’ll head out to find my mother right now and tell her how I feel. Don’t cry since your makeup will smudge and then you wouldn’t look as pretty.
He smiled at her and pressed a soft kiss against her forehead.
Then, he turned and walked out of the door.
