Chapter 227 Gu Jingcheng...We have a daughter
Suddenly, a torrential downpour began outside the car.
The rain pattered against the car roof, making a dense, continuous sound.
Lin Wei sat in the car, her waist still held tightly by the man.
The air inside the car seemed to freeze for a moment.
Lin Wei felt the warmth of the man's embrace and heard his painful murmurs in her ear.
My heart ached.
But the tender look on his face when he put the necklace on another woman's head played out repeatedly in her mind like a nightmare.
Why?
He can be so affectionate in front of her, yet turn around and have dinner with his white moonlight, give her a necklace, and personally put it on her.
How many women are truly in his heart?
Lin Wei wanted to push him away, but her fingertips touched the man's trembling body, and a feeling of pity welled up in her heart.
This was the only man she had ever truly loved in both her lifetimes.
Is this really how things are going to end between them?
Those mornings at Phoenix Villa, the image of him wearing an apron and making soup for her;
He stood outside the door in the rain, hoping for the night she would open it;
And their lovely daughter, Xinxin...
These beautiful things all really existed.
Is she destined to be forever barred from happiness in this life, unable to escape the fate of being betrayed no matter what?
Lin Wei's eyelashes trembled slightly, and a resolute glint flashed in her eyes.
Since you can't bear to push it away, then ask for clarification and fight against fate one more time.
Perhaps this time will be different...
Lin Wei's voice was choked with suppressed sobs.
"Gu Jingcheng, I have something to ask you."
Gu Jingcheng immediately released her, gently holding her arms with both hands, as if afraid she would disappear.
His voice was extremely hoarse.
"Weiwei, ask me anything, I will never hide anything from you."
"As long as you don't ignore me or disappear, I'll do anything."
Lin Wei raised her tear-filled eyes and looked directly into his eyes.
"On that honey-colored day, you gave An Wanrong a gift, didn't you?"
I saw it; you put the necklace on her yourself, and you smiled at each other, so happy…
Pei Haoming said, "She's your white moonlight, isn't she?"
Gu Jingcheng saw that her pale face was streaked with tears, her lips were bitten until they turned white, and she was trembling slightly.
Her slender fingers gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, her knuckles clenching so hard they turned bloodless.
He then realized with a start that the wounds from five years ago had never truly healed.
Her heart was already scarred and she felt extremely insecure.
It was simply carefully wrapped in her tough outer shell.
Now, this protective shell has been shattered, revealing the wounds inside that have never healed.
A tearing pain shot through Gu Jingcheng's heart; the hurt he had inflicted was far deeper than he had imagined.
So, how heartbroken she must have been when she saw him put the necklace on An Wanrong!
That's why he left without saying goodbye; it was his fault for not handling things properly and causing her to misunderstand.
He should have realized long ago that An Wanrong and Pei Haoming were in cahoots.
An Wanrong made him wear that necklace, saying she couldn't wear it herself.
At that moment, Pei Haoming deliberately brought Weiwei to see it.
Therefore, both he and Weiwei were set up by Pei Haoming.
Gu Jingcheng wiped away her tears with both hands, his voice trembling.
"Weiwei, I'm sorry, I was too oblivious... I didn't consider your feelings."
"An Wanrong asked me to help her try on that necklace because she said there was a problem with the clasp."
Looking back now, from her initiating the dinner invitation to deliberately choosing a window seat, it was all a meticulously planned scheme.
"Just as I was putting the necklace on her, you happened to pass by..."
"Pei Haoming is lying. An Wanrong is just the daughter of a family with whom we have a long-standing friendship, not my ideal woman."
My family did intend to arrange a marriage back then, but I refused in front of everyone at the banquet.
The older residents of Jiangcheng's business district all know about this.
Gu Jingcheng's voice choked with emotion, but his eyes remained resolute.
"Weiwei, you have always been my only white moonlight. It was you five years ago, and it's still you five years later."
We've all walked into the trap that Pei Haoming and Jin had meticulously set up.
Lin Wei stopped crying and quietly looked at Gu Jingcheng.
Watching him set aside all his pride and almost humbly beg for her trust,
Then, thinking about how I sentenced him to death because of a misunderstanding, and how he left without saying goodbye to get engaged to someone else,
My heart was overwhelmed with guilt.
She reached out and touched the man's tear-streaked cheeks, her fingertips brushing against his warm tears.
It felt like my heart had been struck hard.
"Gu Jingcheng, I'm sorry... I shouldn't have left without asking anything. It was wrong of me..."
Lin Wei's eyes welled up with tears. She suddenly realized how deeply she had been hurt in the past.
Now, I've become the one who inflicts harm.
The painful memories of betrayal built a thick wall around her heart, shutting out all trust.
The trauma of dying tragically on the street in her previous life robbed her of the ability to love.
She could no longer trust anyone so completely, as she used to.
So she always wondered in her heart, how could someone like her possess such unattainable happiness?
The pain of being betrayed by the person she trusted most is etched into her very bones.
Every time she was so close to happiness, she would become afraid, afraid of experiencing that kind of betrayal again.
-
The rain outside the car window pattered down incessantly, leaving streaks of water on the glass.
Inside the car, however, was a completely different little world.
In Gu Jingcheng's gentle embrace, Lin Wei's tense nerves gradually relaxed.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
The tip of my nose was filled with his familiar scent.
Lin Wei stirred slightly in his arms, her voice very soft.
"Gu Jingcheng...we have a daughter, do you know that?"
Gu Jingcheng tightened his grip on her arm, his chin gently resting on the top of her head, his voice hoarse with guilt.
“I know…I know, Weiwei.”
"I owe you so much, so much... I'm sorry for making you bear so much all by yourself. I'm so sorry..."
He loosened his grip on her slightly, then looked down into her eyes.
"Weiwei, from now on, I will never make you feel insecure again."
I will report to you where I go, who I meet, and what I do.
Let's never have any misunderstandings between us, okay?
