"You can't divorce me because..."
Why?
His mind was in turmoil, his throat tightened, and he couldn't come up with a reason.
Chu Wuyang chuckled softly, a laugh tinged with utter weariness.
"Because of the child?"
Jing Min slowly lowered his head, his gaze falling on her slightly protruding belly.
This was the first time in a long time that they had truly and openly mentioned the word "children".
Chu Wuyang took a deep breath, her expression calm yet weary.
"You made me believe you, saying that Jin Xian's affair was instigated by Old Master Jin, and that you didn't intend to kill him,"
"But you believed what Mr. Jin said and doubted this child."
Jingmin anxiously tried to explain.
"But...those photos and videos are all real, there's no sign of them being faked..."
"But the child is real too."
Chu Wuyang raised her head, her eyes carrying a hint of coldness.
"Whether it's yours or not, as your mother, don't I know?"
Jing Min's Adam's apple bobbed, and his lips pressed into a straight line.
In the end, he couldn't utter a single word.
Chu Wuyang withdrew his hand and spoke softly.
"You see, this is Mr. Jin's purpose—once doubt arises and trust collapses, the truth seems to become irrelevant."
“We’ve had a lot of unpleasantness lately because of the child, and that’s exactly the effect Mr. Jin wanted. He’s achieved his goal, hasn’t he?”
"Now Jin Xian is involved too... Jing Min, I really don't know what awaits us in the future."
"If Old Master Jin's instigation succeeds even once, just once, whether the child is aborted or Jin Xian really gets into trouble..."
"We'll never have a peaceful life."
"so--"
She hadn't finished speaking when
Jingmin suddenly cupped her face in his hands, lowered his head, and kissed her.
To choke all those harsh words,
It was almost an aggressive blockade of her escape route.
He was breathing heavily, his forehead pressed against hers, his tone urgent and forceful.
"Without a reason, he could never succeed."
"About the child... yes, I have my doubts, but Yangyang, I love you, so I'm willing to accept it."
"I accept it whether it is or isn't; I won't abort it without your consent."
"Do you understand? As long as we still love each other, we can withstand anything."
Because he loves her enough, he won't make a big mistake!
He tried his best to persuade her.
Because he knew that what Chu Wuyang didn't say was more fatal than ever before.
He knew that this time, Old Master Jin had crossed Chu Wuyang's bottom line.
She was no longer the same person who would stand by his side without hesitation as before.
She wanted to back out—but how could she?
A hint of panic flickered in Jing Min's eyes, and his voice trembled slightly.
"Besides... he's getting old and won't last many more years."
"I will try my best, I swear, I will fight back against him... So, Yangyang, please don't push me away, okay?"
His voice carried an almost humble plea.
Chu Wuyang looked up at him, her eyes filled with complex emotions, her lips slightly moving.
But in the end, he didn't say it.
Actually, what she didn't finish saying was just what she wanted to tell him: Why don't you go back to the Jin family, Jingmin?
She had had enough of Mr. Jin's manipulation, scheming, and coercion.
She was afraid that if it happened again, she would implicate someone else.
She hoped that if Jingmin could completely resolve the Jin family issue, perhaps they would still have a future.
But if the Kim family continues this endless infighting, what if it leads to an irreparable situation?
So, it seems that in the end, they really will never see each other again, not even in death.
