Ji Qian continued, "In the end, it's still because I love you. In this world, there's only one kind of person, no matter how much you hurt her, she won't have the slightest bit of resentment. She will still care for you as always, be considerate of you. That is a woman who loves you deeply. She can endure your disdain, bear your disappointment. She will always regard your happiness and anger as more important than her own life. For you, she can lose her entire self. She can break her wings and fall from heaven to hell. She can disregard the difference between cloud and mud. As long as you say the word, she can accompany you to roam the world. She can be hurt by you until her whole body is black and blue. She can lick her wounds alone in a dark corner. But when you say the word, she will still force a smile in front of you. Because she doesn't want to cause you trouble. Because she wants to use her meager strength to clear the obstacles in front of you. So that you can only live in happiness, live under the sun. Because a little bit of your giving, to her, is already the accomplishment of her entire world. "
Her gaze flickered slightly. She stared at Jiang Liechen and said, "When this child was born, she was not even a month old. She was pitifully small. I was originally worried that she wouldn't be able to live, so I fed her a lot of tonics. Finally, her little life was saved. I hope that she can grow up in a blessed environment and live a carefree life. To be able to meet someone whom she loved and who could love her back at the same time. That person can take good care of her and care for her. Only then will she not have to bear the pain that I have today. At the very least, her biological father can look at her, hug her, and give her fatherly love. And not see her as a burden and throw her away like a worn-out shoe. "
Jiang Liechen muttered to himself indifferently, "If she didn't survive at that time, perhaps it would have been a good thing." Things that shouldn't exist would disappear from the world sooner or later. He cast a disgusted glance at the baby girl, but did not reach out to take it.
Ji Qian continued, "When I gave birth, you weren't by my side. I was alone in the Miao stockade village with the help of a few midwives … Ah, do you know? In the Five Poison Sect, no one knew how to deliver a baby. In the end, a few protectors went to the commoners and kidnapped a midwife. Her words were filled with resentment and she was unwilling to do so. But when he entered the room, he saw that the bedside and the floor were covered in blood. A woman was lying on the bed, on the verge of death. Her face was covered in sweat, and she was tossing and turning, murmuring in a low voice. It could be seen how tragic the scene was, and even her heart softened. Not bothering about the reward, he ordered the servants to prepare a towel and a basin of water. He also taught me how to exert force. At that time … the heart-wrenching pain was so intense that it felt as if his entire body had died … In the midst of life and death, he was clearly drifting in and out of the darkness, his consciousness gathering and dispersing. There were several times when I felt that I couldn't hold on any longer. Perhaps if I took another breath, I wouldn't be able to catch it. It would be over in the blink of an eye. However, he fainted a few times and woke up a few times. From beginning to end, he was tortured by the pain. Until I heard a baby cry, I suddenly felt much lighter in my body. At that moment, the feeling of being a mother for the first time, the bitterness was over and the sweetness was incomparable to any pursuit of wealth and power in the world. I enjoyed this feeling and was intoxicated by it. When I saw the child with my own eyes, I … I couldn't help but cry. How fortunate am I to be able to have your child as I wished. Not only is she my life, but I will also transfer all my love for you to her. My subordinates all said that after following me for more than ten years, they have never seen the Hierarch lose his composure like this. Actually, no matter how impressive each person is, that is only on the surface in front of others. At the end of the day, in their own small families, they are the most ordinary father and mother. But it is precisely these ordinariness that creates those extraordinary radiances … I can't discuss it with you, but the child can't not have a name. Therefore, I took the liberty to name her 'Canyan'. What do you think? "
Jiang Liechen's gaze changed. He said coldly, "What do you mean? Are you mocking me? "
Only then did Ji Qiannian remember that his face was completely ruined. Giving him this name was indeed a big blow to him. She smiled bitterly and explained, "No, you've misunderstood. This is just to commemorate my face that was wasted in my endless waiting for you … I'm no longer one of the top beauties in the martial world. I'm just a country woman who can't even walk properly … I'm not saying all this to ask you to pay me back. I'm also not complaining. I just want you to understand that I'm doing this willingly. But this child, she is indeed your flesh and blood. If there is a lie, let me be struck by lightning! Won't you hug her? Behold, our child, she smiles at thee. I think she is a smart child. She knows how to be filial to her father at such a young age. "
Jiang Liechen sneered slightly. He followed her wishes and raised his hand to touch the baby's forehead. His hand swept past her sideburns and passed her tender face. He hesitated for a moment. Ji Qiannian saw that he suddenly became benevolent and thought that his attitude had finally changed. She was overjoyed and said, "This child … don't you think she is cute? I knew that you are not completely heartless and cold-blooded … "
Jiang Liechen said faintly, "She is cute, but unfortunately … she will not live long!" Just as he finished speaking, his hand reached for her neck. He turned to the side and his five fingers clasped her neck tightly.
Ji Qiannian was shocked. Even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs. How could she expect that he would be so crazy as to do such a cruel thing to his own daughter? She panicked for a moment. When she came to her senses, she hurriedly reached out to pull his wrist. How could she disentangle him? This daughter was her treasure. She usually took good care of her. If there was a slight injury, her heart would ache for a long time. How could she allow her to be abused and endanger her life?
As she tried in vain, she begged incoherently, "No … don't! Please don't hurt her! Even if you don't want me, no matter how cruel you are to me, I will not blame you. I will not ask for anything from you. I know that you are ambitious and don't want to be burdened by any feelings. But I am just a woman, a woman who has just become a mother. My feelings are so fragile and so sad. I have lost my husband and my status. Now, this child is my only hope for the rest of my life. After we part today, we will be gone for years. We will never meet again. I will leave far away, to a place where you will never see us again and where no one knows us. I will guard the little bit of tenderness you give me and imagine that you are still by my side and will never leave me. I will fulfill my promise to you and never appear in front of you again. Even if Ji Qiannian is dead, she will leave your life completely and take away all traces. She will never bother you again. As long as you … please have mercy. To you, you have the right to decide the life and death of others. The life and death of a baby is really a trivial matter. But to me, it is related to the meaning of my life. I will guard this child silently and raise her without any regrets. At the same time, I will tell her that her father … is such an amazing person. I will live the rest of my life peacefully … "
Her tearful complaint could be said to be the most bitter and painful of her life. Even the most heartless person would sigh for her fate upon hearing it. However, Jiang Liechen was not moved at all. He did not loosen the strength in his hands. He said coldly, "I don't need you to spread this name for me. In front of a dying person, any words are superfluous. I told you early on that this child cannot be kept. You insisted on not listening. That's fine. It's just that you shouldn't have brought her in front of me. If you expect to use a child to tie me down and make me stay by your side, that is pure wishful thinking! You have only yourself to blame. You can't blame me. "
Ji Qiannian sobbed, "No … no … I have never thought of threatening you. I swear to you that I wanted to leave quietly and not disturb anyone. But you have been alone all your life. If you have not even seen your own daughter … this is also your right. So … now it seems that I should not have made this trip. "
Jiang Liechen snorted, "Don't say that you are so noble. Do you dare to swear again that you have never expected me to be soft-hearted because of her, to change my mind and to dream of guarding the couple's alliance? "
Ji Qiannian said, "I admit … I admit … but is loving you also a mistake? Is it a sin to think about it? Since you have given her life, you should be responsible for her … "Jiang Liechen said," It is because I am responsible for her that I can't let her come to this world! "
The newborn baby was so delicate. After a while, her face immediately turned purple and her brows furrowed slightly. It seemed that even in her unconscious state, she could feel pain.
Ji Qiannian felt as if his heart was pierced by someone. It was so painful that he could not even breathe. He knelt down on the ground and curled up his body. He held his legs tightly with both hands and kowtowed on the ground. He cried, "Lord Seven Evil Spirits, now I kneel down and beg you … I admit that it is my fault to have those unrealistic dreams. But this child is indeed your own flesh and blood! She has not opened her eyes to see the earth, mountains and rivers. She has not felt the sunshine and she is about to leave this world forever. And the one who took her life is her own father … Even if she becomes a ghost, how do you want her to bear this cruel reality? As long as you let her go, even if you kill me … Kill me and let me die in her place to make up for your hatred, okay? You can even kill your own daughter … You don't deserve to be a father. You don't deserve to be a man. You don't even deserve to be a human! You will get your retribution. I curse you to get your retribution! No matter how vast the country is, it will be destroyed in a day sooner or later! Because a monster like you doesn't deserve to have any rights! " After kowtowing a few times, his forehead was covered with dust. He looked very embarrassed. Seeing that Jiang Liechen was still indifferent, he was so angry that he could not help but curse. He knew that he should not provoke him at this time, but he could no longer suppress the impulse in his heart.
Jiang Liechen said, "What a joke. Is this your so-called 'uncomplaining love for me'? If you want to curse me, then curse me. In my life, I have made countless enemies. I don't care if I have one more. I have heard that your Miaojiang witchcraft is famous for a long time. But I have always been going against heaven. You can't do any harm to me with just a few words. "
The two were still in a deadlock. Suddenly, the branches on the side shook. Xuan Shuang came out from behind the tree. He frowned and said, "Hey, what are you doing? Why are you crying all of a sudden? "
As soon as Jiang Liechen saw Xuan Shuang, he did not want to do too much evil in front of him. The hand that was stuck on the baby's neck also loosened. Ji Qiannian hurriedly took a step forward and held her daughter in her arms. She carefully examined her daughter to see if she was hurt. She was so distressed that tears flowed down her face.
Xuan Shuang's eyes moved back and forth. When he fixed his eyes on the baby, his eyes immediately lit up. He took a few steps forward and called out, "Wow! So cute! " He stretched out his finger and carefully poked the baby's pink cheeks. He then said to Ji Qiannian, "Sister Ji, is this your child?" Ji Qiannian gently nodded. She was about to open her mouth when a burst of tears rose. Unexpectedly, she could not speak.
