Bai Lu was speechless.
"You're the heartless one!" she retorted through gritted teeth.
"Fine, I'm heartless. I'm heartless. I'm heartless. When you were in England for more than a year, I missed you so much that I went crazy, but I didn't dare to take the initiative to look at you. I could only watch you secretly. I'm heartless. After I married Ye Lian, I tried my best to push her away. I didn't even want to look at her. I even took the risk to set her on a path of no return. I'm heartless. After you came back from England, the first thing I did was to abandon all my business in City A and run to City C. Do you really think I'm interested in this damned project? What do you think I'm interested in? I just miss you. "
'I just … miss you …'
…
Bai Lu probably never thought that Liang Feifan would hold her hand and say such things under such circumstances. He was such a proud man. She thought her words were harsh enough, but in reality, hurting anyone was a double-edged sword.
While she was hurting him, she also felt uncomfortable in her heart. Please remember the website of this website:. Shu Guifan.
But he didn't turn around and leave. He didn't lose his temper at her. Instead, he used such a pleading tone to say to her in a low voice, "I just miss you."
Bai Lu's nose and hair were dry. Something seemed to be rolling in her throat. Those sharp emotions were also attacking the coldness in her heart, the stubbornness that she had built up with great difficulty.
It was just a few simple words, but Bai Lu sadly found that she still couldn't resist Liang Feifan.
"… Hit me."
She clutched the corner of her clothes tightly and didn't make a sound. Her soaring arrogance from before was like a balloon that had been punctured in an instant. She didn't know what else to say. There were too many sharp words in her throat, but she didn't have the strength to spit out a single word.
Liang Feifan tightened his grip on her hand and simply pulled her into his arms. His large palm tightly supported her back. Bai Lu struggled in his arms for a moment. He frowned. The corners of his eyes were tinged with a kind of bitterness that couldn't be obtained. He hugged her in his arms and rested his chin on her shoulder. His deep voice was filled with suppressed pain.
"… I know that you're unhappy and uncomfortable. I know that I've let you down, but I can't just ignore you. In my heart, Liang Feifan, you'll always be my only wife. You should know the reason for my marriage with Ye Lian. I don't dare to ask you to understand me. I know that between you and the Liang Clan, I chose the Liang Clan first. But it wasn't because I couldn't let go of power and fame. If I wasn't strong enough, I wouldn't have been able to protect you. Bai Lu, I never knew that it would be so difficult for a man to want a woman. But when I wanted you, it really was that difficult. For the past year or so, this feeling of not being able to get what I want has been eroding my rationality every single day. "
"Bai Lu, I've always thought that when you came back, when you came back, I could watch over you from afar. I could watch over you and help you arrange everything you needed. Then, step by step, I could get closer to her. I always believed that you still had feelings for me. But when I saw other men getting close to you, I felt that you always wanted to push me away. I couldn't help it. I couldn't control my emotions. I wanted to urgently pull you into my arms. I've never been that kind of person. But the person I'm facing is you. I can't help it … "
"I've never said so much to a woman. I used to think that love was a luxury for people like me, but at the same time, I didn't care about it. But it's just that hateful. For people who don't believe in love, the arrival of love is even more ferocious."
Love was the strangest thing in the world, but it was also the most magical thing. Don't doubt it. It would always suddenly appear in your life in a way that you couldn't guard against. Even if you struggled on the brink of death, you would still end up with an outcome that you had no choice but to accept.
"…"
Bai Lu felt even worse. If he could be so cold to her, if he could turn around and walk away arrogantly, if he could ignore her thoughts and feelings …
But he didn't. He carefully explained his feelings to her and confessed his feelings. Such a proud man, in front of others, had always been the one who looked up to him. But now, he was speaking to her in such a tone.
She felt terrible. Her heart was very uncomfortable. Some words were at the tip of her tongue, but in the end, she swallowed them back.
"… If I say this to you, will you no longer be moved? Bai Lu … I just want you to pity me. I've said so much to you for this purpose. Don't talk to me like this, don't push me away like this. I don't want to continue with Ye Lian. I just want you to always stand by my side. Everything I do, I don't dare to say, is for you. But from the beginning to the end, I want to give you the best of everything. I once let you down, so from now on, I want to make it up to you in double. Give me a chance, okay? "
"…"
At this moment, her resistance finally weakened. It was as if someone was constantly tugging at her soul. Her rational soul was telling her that she shouldn't fall for him anymore, but her emotional soul was so blocked that she couldn't say a word. All that was left was probably feeling touched.
"… Bai Lu, a year ago, I didn't protect you well. A year later, you're back by my side again. I want to protect you. I don't want you to shed a single tear. I don't want you to be sad."
…
Bai Lu's hands, which were hanging by his side, clenched slightly. She took a deep breath and finally said, "… You said all this to me because you want me to stay by your side. But what kind of identity do you want me to use to stay by your side? Liang Feifan, I can't be a mistress who can't see the light of day. "
"… I don't know what you're thinking, but between us … we've been through so much. Since you said all this to me, I want to be rational with you."
She pursed her lips and furrowed her brows. After neutralizing all the negative emotions and feelings in her heart, all that was left was rationality. "Liang Feifan, thank you for speaking your mind to me. We're not children anymore. I admit that I was a little emotional when I heard what you said just now, but if you really want me to … give you a chance, I hope you can give me some time to think about it. Go back to City A, don't stay in City C. Let me be alone for a while. Give me half a month. If I've thought it through, I'll go to City A to look for you."
After returning home from work, Bai Lu smelled the aroma of food the moment she entered the house.
She changed her shoes at the entrance and walked into the kitchen. Chin Jin-hee was stewing soup. She turned to the side and saw that her daughter had returned. She smiled. "You're early today."
"Yeah."
Bai Lu reached out to pinch the bridge of her nose. She walked forward, picked up her apron, and put it on. She wanted to help, but Chin Jin-hee pushed her away. "Go watch TV in the living room. Oh, by the way, I went grocery shopping today and bought a copy of the newspaper. Go take a look. It's in the living room."
Bai Lu thought that since her mother had personally asked her to read the newspaper, there must be some important news. She nodded. She was hungry, so she reached out to grab a piece of meat and stuffed it into her mouth. Chin Jin-hee smiled and patted the back of her hand. "You haven't washed your hands yet! Why are you still acting like a child? "
Such an atmosphere made both mother and daughter feel warm and cozy.
Chin Jin-hee had always been very sensitive to the changes in her daughter. She felt that Bai Lu seemed to be in a good mood today. There seemed to be something on her mind, but it was obviously not as bad as before.
Bai Lu went to the living room and sat on the sofa. She picked up the newspaper from the coffee table and opened it. The most eye-catching headline was actually from City A's Family Ye.
It was actually a very obscure headline — A City's Rich Young Lady Is Rumored to Have Been Using Drugs for Half a Year.
Ye Lian's name was not mentioned, but there was a large description and some blurry photos at the bottom of the article. Anyone who knew the Family Ye would probably know that the female lead in this article was Ye Lian.
Bai Lu's heart skipped a beat. She suddenly thought of something and subconsciously tightened her grip on the newspaper.
…
When Ye Lian came to the hotel that day, she felt that the arrogant woman's complexion was not as rosy as it was a year ago. At the time, she did not think too much about it, but now that she saw this article, she felt that Ye Lian was probably using drugs.
…
… I have no conscience. After I married Ye Lian, I did everything I could to push her away. I didn't even want to look her in the eye. I even took the risk to set her up on a path of no return …
A few hours ago, the words Liang Feifan had said to her flashed across Bai Lu's mind. The corners of her eyes twitched and she furrowed her brows.
So, does Ye Lian's drug use have anything to do with Liang Feifan?
Bai Lu's thoughts were a little confused.
She didn't like Ye Lian. That day, when she suddenly rushed into the hotel and raised her hand to slap her and even called her a b * tch, she hated her even more. She was no saint. All the previous disputes made it impossible for her to pity such a woman.
In the past, she had also set up a trap for her and her unborn child.
Even though she had known Liang Feifan longer than she had and the public had already assumed that she was Mrs. Liang, if a man had really put down his feelings for her, she wouldn't have become Mrs. Liang in the first place.
She had racked her brains to achieve her goals and even resorted to unscrupulous means. Bai Lu admitted that she really did hate Ye Lian.
But even though she hated her, if Ye Lian's drug use was her fault, she felt that Ye Lian deserved it. But if it really had something to do with Liang Feifan …
