When he thought of the girl who was making a heart shape and blowing kisses to him just a second ago, and now had to face such an abyss the next moment, he regretted it so much.
"Xuqiu, I'm sorry. I had the chance to save you, but I did nothing."
Lin Xuqiu wiped her tears and said with sobs.
"This is none of your business."
"I always thought Luo Hanshuang was just paranoid, but after Lin Xi returned, she became a normal mother. It turns out she was only like this to me. She didn't like me because I wasn't smart enough."
Wen Yanci wouldn't let her belittle herself like that.
"Who says you're not smart enough?"
"Xuqiu, you have to know that you have many shining points. You are so dazzling on the stage. They just don't recognize your musical talent..."
"Besides, not all children of wealthy families are truly talented. Most are mediocre and rely entirely on their family's packaging. You are already very outstanding among them."
"If it was Lin Xi who stayed with Luo Hanshuang back then, she wouldn't be able to stand this kind of repressive education either. But she's an adult now, and Luo Hanshuang can't control her the same way she controlled you."
What Wen Yanci didn't say was that Lin Xi was very scheming and was indeed more suitable to stay in a wealthy family, while Lin Xuqiu had a simpler mind and was easier to control.
Lin Xuqiu's mood gradually stabilized. In fact, she had already let go of many of those things. But now that she finally found someone to talk to, she couldn't help but pour out all her grievances. Now she felt much better.
"Yan Ci, thank you. You are the first person to listen to me talk about these things. I feel much better after I talk about them."
Wen Yanci's eyes were red and moist. He was a very cold person and hardly cried since he was a child. This was the first time he was heartbroken to the point of crying.
He hugged the woman in his arms tightly, as if he wanted to integrate her into his own bones and blood. Thinking of the grievances she had suffered, a hint of viciousness flashed in his eyes.
"Xuqiu, don't worry. I will make those who hurt you pay the price."
Lin Xuqiu broke free from the man's arms and shook her head at him.
"Yan Ci, I don't want to have anything to do with them."
"Although Luo Hanshuang has cast a shadow on me, it is undeniable that she raised me and provided me with the best material conditions. I have never thought of revenge. I just want to be even and become strangers forever."
The man frowned and didn't want to let go of those who had bullied Lin Xuqiu.
Lin Xuqiu reached out to smooth the man's furrowed brow and smiled with relief.
"Yan Ci, I've really let it go. Now that I've said it, I feel much better."
Wen Yanci held her hand, which was placed on his forehead, in his palm.
"Xuqiu, you let it go, but I can't let it go."
"I really regret missing you that night and letting you face those terrible things alone."
Lin Xuqiu snuggled in the man's arms and spoke softly.
"Those things are in the past. I am very happy now. You and the baby are part of my happiness."
Because they were very close to the door, Lin Xuqiu's painful confession reached the ears of Lin Zhidong and his wife and Zhou Cheng outside...
