Chapter 107 I Will Never Forgive You
Jiang Xu sat at the dining table and ate his meal bite by bite.
She ate whatever He Yanting picked for her. After finishing her meal, she stood up and asked, "Can I go upstairs?"
He Yanting took a deep breath and suppressed his anger: "Yeah."
Jiang Xu felt a little sleepy, so she went back to the bedroom and lay down.
After a while, footsteps were heard coming in.
The soft mattress sank to one side, and the next second, Jiang Xu was embraced in an embrace.
"Ruanruan, let's talk."
Jiang Xu had a blank expression on his face: "Are you willing to let me go?"
He Yanting: "...I don't want to."
"That's nothing to talk about."
Jiang Xu turned her head away and didn't look at him.
He Yanting placed his hand on her bulging belly and stroked it gently: "Why on earth did you have to leave me?"
Jiang Xu said calmly: "I've said it many times, because I don't want to see you."
He Yanting choked.
After a few seconds, "How can I make you change your mind?"
Jiang Xu said coldly: "Impossible."
He Yanting asked: "So as long as there is a chance, you will still go, right?"
"yes."
Without a trace of hesitation.
He Yanting chuckled softly, full of self-mockery: "Ruanruan, you are so cruel to me. You don't even think of lying to me."
Jiang Xu closed her eyes, her voice flat, "In the months before you jumped off the building, you locked me up and let Jiang Xueruo mock me. Wasn't that cruel to me?"
He Yanting was stunned: "How Xue Ruo treats you... I don't know."
Jiang Xu's face was full of sarcasm: "You went to great lengths to tamper with my phone and know where I am at all times, but you don't know how Xue Ruo treats me. Do you not know, or do you simply not care?"
"I...I thought you were pregnant with someone else's child. I was so angry that I couldn't face you at all."
He Yanting buried his face in her shoulder, his voice trembling slightly.
"Sorry, Softy, I know I'm an asshole."
The hot breath fell on Jiang Xu's shoulder. She tried to push him away, but failed.
Jiang Xu looked at the crystal chandelier above and thought, since it has come to this, I might as well make everything clear.
"And about the Xia family's bankruptcy? Jiang Xueruo told me that the Xia family went bankrupt, my uncle went to jail, and my mother's depression relapsed. Was it you who did this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, He Yanting interrupted him.
"It wasn't me, it was Jiang Minghuai who did it."
Jiang Xu curled his lips: "So you know everything, but you never thought of helping the Xia family. Even though we are married, you know what family means to me."
He Yanting was silent.
He had nothing to say.
His anger at her for being pregnant with someone else's child and his hatred for Xia Yulin made him choose to stand by and watch.
Even so, he knew what kind of blow the destruction of the Xia family would bring to Ruanruan.
In the silence, Jiang Xu's resolute voice drilled into his ears word by word:
"He Yanting, I will never forgive you."
He Yanting felt as if a basin of cold water was poured over his head.
It was cold from the top of my head to my heels, and even my heart was freezing bit by bit.
Why on earth?
If he were to do it again, he would obviously be trying his best to make amends.
But in the end they reached a dead end.
Jiang Xu didn't remember when she fell asleep. When she woke up, He Yanting was gone.
The sun was setting outside. She picked up her phone and saw many messages from Xia Yulin, all of which comforted her, telling her not to be afraid and that she would find a way.
Jiang Xu did not reply.
She felt she had no hope and left.
She walked out of the bedroom and looked at the long corridor of the room, and a feeling of suffocation came over her.
Arriving in front of the study, she pushed open the door.
The slanting setting sun shines through the blinds, leaving golden horizontal stripes on the desk and wall. Professional books on the desk and on the bookshelf are neatly placed there.
Jiang Xu walked over and touched the books one by one with his fingertips.
The knowledge accumulated over the years emerged in her mind, and the lofty ambitions she once set struck her eardrums.
The feeling of suffocation and despair gradually dissipated.
The golden light fell on her beautiful profile, and she looked at the vast sky outside.
In an instant, there was an anchor in my heart and light in my eyes.
She took out her cell phone and sent a message to Xia Yulin:
[Don't act rashly for now. Also, have your uncle keep an eye on Jiang Minghuai, as he might be harmful to the Xia family.]
She didn't know what He Yanting did with her phone and whether he could monitor this information, so she didn't say much.
After sending the message, she sat at her desk, opened her tablet and continued reading her paper.
She knew leaving might be difficult.
But no matter how difficult it is, there is always a way.
She would have left anyway.
Everything seemed to have returned to the way it was before. She concentrated on her studies every day, while He Yanting went back and forth between the group and home.
He cooked three delicious and nutritious meals for her in different ways every day, and his cooking skills improved day by day.
No matter how busy he was, he would always take some time after dinner to hold her hand and take a walk in the garden downstairs.
After taking a bath in the evening, he would carefully apply olive oil to her belly.
During the late stages of pregnancy, legs are prone to cramps at night. Every time she groans, no matter how deep He Yanting sleeps, he will always wake up immediately and give her a massage.
From any angle, he is a perfect husband.
But there was no ripple in Jiang Xu's heart.
There was never a single genuine smile on his face.
The most unbearable time was at night. He Yanting would pester her whenever he had time and try his best to please her.
He kissed her all over gently, even her fingertips and the tops of her feet.
When he saw Jiang Xu's face flushed and her eyes moving due to being teased, he would happily hug her and keep asking:
"Ruanruan, you still like me, right?"
"Are you happy?"
Still unable to get a response from her, he grabbed her hand and pressed it against his firm, beautiful muscles.
"Even if you don't like me, you should like this body, right?"
Look at the expectation and restlessness flashing in his eyes.
Jiang Xu curled her fingertips slightly and said lightly: "He Yanting, I'm sleepy, let me sleep."
Time goes by day after day.
In the belly, the fetus's growth has reached the final stage, and the belly is getting bigger day by day.
That day, Xia Yulin prepared some baby supplies to send to Jiang Xu.
Jiang Xu said no, she would go and get it.
During breakfast, she asked He Yanting if she could go to Xia Yulin's place.
He Yanting paused while serving the porridge, and pursed his lips slightly: "From now on, you don't need to report to me where you are going. Just let the bodyguards follow you."
"Um."
Jiang Xu responded softly.
After dinner, Jiang Xu took out a tie from the cloakroom.
This was He Yanting's request, to tie his tie for him every day.
Jiang Xu's belly is very big now, and she can't get around He Yanting's neck even if she stands on tiptoe. He Yanting always holds her waist with both hands and then bends over to cooperate with her.
After tying the tie, He Yanting touched her round belly.
"Do you think it's a boy or a girl?"
Jiang Xu had no expression: "It's all the same."
He Yanting held her face and kissed her deeply, his dark eyes gleaming with a soft smile: "I hope it's a girl, as beautiful as you."
