Lu Jinnan looked up at Bai Xiaonian, his eyes red …
"No matter what, let's part on good terms. We can just greet each other and nod when we meet. After all … our fathers have a good relationship, and my best friend and your best brother are husband and wife. Let's not make things too ugly and put them on the spot! I'll tell Nuan Nuan not to matchmake the two of us in the future. I also hope you can make it clear to Fu Huai 'an that we're breaking up peacefully. "
Their gazes met. In the end, Bai Xiaonian couldn't bear to add, "Hong Jinyun might really not want to do anything, but Hong Jinyun's mother has a big heart. You'd better not give Hong Jinyun's mother a chance … to rely on you after Hong Jinyun's death."
Some things couldn't be explained. Perhaps women understood women better, and Bai Xiaonian's intuition told her what kind of woman Hong Jinyun's mother was.
"Don't send me back. I'll take a taxi myself!" Bai Xiaonian had already grabbed her bag with one hand. Her gaze swept over her wrist, which Lu Jinnan was grabbing tightly. "Lu Jinnan, let go!"
Lu Jinnan didn't let go. He merely gazed at Bai Xiaonian, choking. "I can't do it!"
"What's the point of dragging it out like this?" Bai Xiaonian didn't struggle. "Why don't we sign the divorce papers and live on our own?"
"From today onwards, I'll stay by your side and won't go anywhere!" Lu Jinnan's eyes reddened as he said solemnly, "Xiaonian, when I went to see Hong Jinyun back then, I had the intention to spite you. Including the advertisement I took on New Year's Eve. Do you really think I'm such a careless person, spending Chinese New Year with another woman and letting you see my reflection in the glass when I took a photo?"
"On February 4th, I waited at your apartment for a long time. I saw that friend of yours, Mortensen, send you home. He was carrying the bags he bought from the supermarket. You and Mortensen were talking about how lively it was in China on New Year's Eve. You guys were talking about how every household would have fish as a dish on New Year's Eve in previous years, implying that there would be more than enough every year …"
Bai Xiaonian only looked at Lu Jinnan, not explaining that she didn't ask Mortensen to stay at her place for New Year's Eve.
Lu Jinnan placed Bai Xiaonian's hand on his chest. "I'm also a petty and jealous man. I hesitated for a long time before I sent that photo …"
Lu Jinnan's message to Bai Xiaonian with that photo was to tell her that she had someone to accompany her … and that he wasn't alone.
Ever since January 28th, when Lu Jinnan saw Motson appear at Bai Xiaonian's condominium and saw Motson's passionate and adoring gaze toward Bai Xiaonian, he had been angry with Bai Xiaonian in his heart. He didn't get an explanation from Bai Xiaonian, only Bai Xiaonian's coldness …
Lu Jinnan also had his own pride and self-esteem. In this cold war, he stubbornly waited for Bai Xiaonian to admit defeat and explain herself.
However … Lu Jinnan really loved Bai Xiaonian too much, so much so that it exceeded his imagination. On February 4th, after he thought he had gotten his revenge, on February 14th, he still couldn't help but throw away his armor and bow his head to Bai Xiaonian.
But Lu Jinnan couldn't stand it. When he and Motson were fighting, Bai Xiaonian stood in front of Motson to protect him, looking at him coldly and angrily.
In this relationship, Bai Xiaonian was always the proud one, and he was always the one who gave in.
Every time they quarreled, every time they were unhappy … he was the one who gave in. He had always been the one to compromise. Bai Xiaonian's every decision was made without hesitation. She didn't care about Lu Jinnan at all.
For example, Lu Jinnan insisted on coming to America.

When Nan asked Bai Xiaonian to choose between her career and him, she straightforwardly rejected Lu Jinnan's proposal.
Lu Jinnan thought that Bai Xiaonian didn't love him that much …
For half a month, Lu Jinnan was in more pain than anyone else.
He couldn't let go of Bai Xiaonian, but he couldn't accept the fact that Bai Xiaonian didn't love him that much.
So, after half a month, Lu Jinnan still couldn't control himself and started contacting Bai Xiaonian …
But this time, Lu Jinnan wasn't the same as before … He went to look for Bai Xiaonian with only his love for her. His heart was filled with indignation and anger.
Because of this, when Bai Xiaonian told him that she had fallen and asked him to come back quickly, he resisted Bai Xiaonian's almost commanding tone!
It wasn't whether he could come back or not … It wasn't a question. Her voice was anxious and didn't have a pleading tone. Lu Jinnan felt indignant and angry. Even though he snatched Bai Xiaonian's words … he still restrained himself and only asked Bai Xiaonian not to make a fuss.
He didn't hang up the call to give Bai Xiaonian a chance to speak. He was waiting for Bai Xiaonian to give in. Even if Bai Xiaonian's tone softened or became a little more delicate … Lu Jinnan would turn the car around.
But Bai Xiaonian was silent for a long time before she hung up.
Lu Jinnan called again. Bai Xiaonian was still on the phone. He thought of Motson for some reason, clenched his teeth, and gave up on the idea of turning the car around.
When he reached Hong Jinyun's apartment building, Lu Jinnan didn't go up. He called the ambulance on the way there. When he reached her apartment building, he watched as the ambulance took Hong Jinyun away, then he went back to Bai Xiaonian's place.
But for a very, very long time after that, Lu Jinnan didn't see Bai Xiaonian again, so he could only return to China.
Before he found out that he and Bai Xiaonian had lost their child on March 11th, Lu Jinnan had felt indignant and indignant as he waited to see Bai Xiaonian at the Fu residence.
He felt indignant that he was the one with the deepest feelings, to the point where he couldn't extricate himself and couldn't turn back! But Bai Xiaonian could extricate herself at will, treating him as someone who didn't matter.
"Xiaonian … I want you to tell me the truth. Do you love me?" Lu Jinnan asked.
Bai Xiaonian's tears had already dried up, leaving only reddened eyes. She said, "Yes, in the past …"
The word "in the past" made Lu Jinnan's entire body hurt. He gritted his teeth …
If she didn't love him, Bai Xiaonian wouldn't have used her identity as Lu Jinnan's wife and risked her life to save him! He was blinded by jealousy and indignance, and he couldn't see clearly.
"Look, our biggest problem is that I love you, but I don't know how much you love me!" Lu Jinnan held Bai Xiaonian's petite hand and kissed it. "We don't communicate much. You're stubborn and headstrong, while I'm a conceited and proud man!"
Seeing that Bai Xiaonian didn't say anything, Lu Jinnan continued, "I haven't seen Hong Jinyun since Chinese New Year's Eve. I've seen Hong Jinyun's mother three times, and I won't see her again in the future! I'll pay for Hong Jinyun's treatment fees, but I won't see anyone related to Hong Jinyun again. Because even if I let down the entire world, I won't let you down! "
"Regarding the child …"
Therefore, regardless of whether they were lovers or husband and wife, communication was very important! Here's the third chapter for today … See you tomorrow, babies. Remember to vote for Qianqian! If it's 600 votes, Qianqian will have to add chapters for the babies again! Muah …
