Chapter 976 Love is not everything
"I've told myself countless times not to bother you again, but I really can't do it. Xiaxia, tell me, why can you control your feelings? Is it because you don't love me anymore, or because I've become less important to you?"
Seeing his sad expression, Xia Youxin felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
In fact, she knew very well that Qi Xuan's situation at home was very difficult.
Everyone thought he was one of the four young masters of Jinyun City, enjoying immense prestige.
But who can understand the pain of being unable to control his own destiny?
Xia Youxin couldn't answer his question because even she herself didn't know what she was thinking.
She walked over, wanting to reach out and touch his swollen face, but her hand froze in mid-air before finally falling.
Xia Youxin sighed deeply, feeling extremely stifled.
"Perhaps this is just our life. Fate has destined us not to be with the people we love. No matter how much we struggle, the final result is still the same. If in the end we even lose our family ties..."
Don't you regret it? To be honest, your aunt is good to you. Although she's a bit unreasonable, you're her only son and the heir to the family business. How could she not love you? Life can't be just about love; there's also family and friendship. Even if we can't be lovers, we can still be friends and family. If there's an afterlife... shall we be together again?
Qi Xuan suddenly pulled Xia Youxin into his arms, his grip was so strong that Xia Youxin felt like she was suffocating.
"No, not at all! Do you know how much pain I've been going through lately? Every day without you is incomplete. Xiaxia, let's try one last time, okay? If we really fail, we'll give up, okay? Please give me one last chance, okay?"
Xia Youxin was filled with confusion.
While it's easy to talk about resistance, actually doing it is completely daunting.
"We have confidence, not because we lack confidence in you, but because I've been your daughter-in-law for several years and I know your mother's personality very well. Once she's made up her mind, she will never change it, even if..."
Even if you're her own son, that won't change. The worst thing is that in the end, it'll all be for nothing.
"But I don't want to give up like this. I believe that human will can overcome anything. Can you give me a little more time? If we can give you the answer you want within the agreed time frame, then you can choose to let go, okay?"
Xia Youxin smiled bitterly, unsure whether she should believe him.
"So how long do you want me to wait? Five years or ten? Do you think I have that much youth left to wait for you?"
Qi Xuan was speechless.
After a long pause, he made a partial compromise.
"As long as you don't completely give up on me, within your tolerance level, give me some time, or... if you meet a man you like more, you can take the initiative to let go. If another man can bring you happiness, I'm willing to grant your wish. After all, I can't selfishly let you continue to suffer with me. I don't deserve the happiness I have, and I don't want you to miss out on it either..."
As he said this, Qi Xuan tightened his grip on Xia Youxin, afraid of losing her and afraid that she would fall in love with someone else.
