When she finished speaking, tears were already welling up in her eyes.
Xu Wan knew that she was no match for Mrs. Jiang in any way, and that there were more outstanding and suitable candidates.
There is an insurmountable gap between them.
Since getting married, she has not only done nothing, but has also hurt her husband.
Even so, she still selfishly wanted to occupy the position.
Jiang Tingzhou held the woman's hand and waited a few seconds before asking, "Are you done talking this time?"
"Um."
Xu Wan nodded.
"Wanwan, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hide it from you. I just didn't know how to say it."
Jiang Tingzhou spoke slowly, and he seemed somewhat hesitant.
I hesitated whether to take this opportunity to tell everyone everything.
Tell her that he is not only Jiang Xuanzhou, but also the president of Tianwei Group.
Keeping certain things hidden could lead to more problems.
“Jiang Tingzhou.” Xu Wan looked at the man in front of her and asked him, “Then tell me now, why did you hide it from me back then? Why didn’t you tell me that you were Jiang Xuanzhou? You could have just told me directly, and maybe I would have been more accepting of you. But you chose to hide it. Why?”
Xu Wan could not forget An Yunya's words.
She said that after the verdict was handed down, Jiang Tingzhou felt very guilty. He said that he was too gentle and that's why he used this method to make up for her.
She didn't believe it.
She wanted to hear Jiang Tingzhou speak for himself.
"Wanwan..."
Jiang Tingzhou gripped the woman's hand even tighter. "There are some things we don't need to say all in one day. We have plenty of time, so let's talk about them slowly."
"No, just tell me now, I want to know."
When Xu Wan looked at the man, her eyes reddened even more.
His attitude has indirectly proven that what An Yunya said might be true.
Jiang Tingzhou did not continue to answer, but asked first: "Did An Yunya tell you my identity?"
"yes."
Xu Wan didn't hide it from him.
Jiang Tingzhou is so smart, he must have already guessed it.
Did she mention anything else?
Jiang Tingzhou had indeed guessed it, and he also deduced that An Yunya probably hadn't told her that she was the president of Tianwei.
That woman's thoughts are too easy to guess; she's probably thinking the same thing as Miyazaki.
Xu Wan, however, thought the man was asking why they got married. She said, "I want to hear you say it yourself, why you chose to marry me. After all, I don't have a beautiful face or an outstanding background. I was dressed very plainly that day. No matter how you look at it, I don't have any qualities that would make you choose me."
“Because of… that case back then.” Jiang Tingzhou sighed, finally revealing the truth. “That was the first criminal case I handled after graduation. I lacked self-awareness and failed to achieve a better verdict. Moreover… after the verdict, I specifically told you that murder is murder, which in a way implied to you that your mother was the murderer. I’ve regretted that action ever since. That’s not what I meant…”
The man's expression was filled with regret and pain as he spoke.
Xu Wan's tears kept falling.
What she heard was not the man's regret, but the confirmation that every word An Yunya had said had been proven true.
Jiang Tingzhou would regret the things he said when he was young for ten years, and would even risk his life to marry an ordinary woman like himself.
When Jiang Tingzhou looked up, he was terrified to see Xu Wan crying so hard. He quickly wiped away her tears, "I'm sorry, I was..."
“Jiang Tingzhou.” Xu Wan stepped back slightly. “I left that note not because I hate you. When I was in high school, I went to the library and read a lot of books about law. I knew what you meant and I knew that everything you did was well-intentioned. I am grateful to you and grateful to my mother. Neither of you is wrong, and there is no need for you to… ouch.”
Before Xu Wan could finish speaking, she felt a pain in her stomach and unconsciously bent over to cover her abdomen.
