Chapter 864: Take a Reassurance Pill
Ji Chuan originally planned to give her some more time to see if she would tell him the truth at the dinner table later, but when he saw her crying alone in the kitchen, he really couldn't help it.
Xu Hui thought about how he had been watching her act in front of him all night, and he felt a little suffocated. "Are you the reincarnation of a fox spirit?"
So smart indeed.
Ji Chuan raised his hand to wipe her tears. "I don't know if your acting is too bad or if you're not hard-hearted enough. How many times have you cried all night?"
After he said that, Xu Hui cried even harder. He understood her difficulties in being forced to do things against her will.
Ji Chuan took her into his arms again and patted her head to comfort her: "Okay, cook and eat. Only when you are full will you have the strength to fight the old fox."
The more he didn't blame her, the more heartbroken and guilty she felt.
She shouldn't have been led by Ji Qingming. When two people are together, they should be a team. She should never, ever think of separating from him.
"sorry"
She raised her head and spoke to him solemnly again.
He looked into her wet eyes, stared at her for a moment, and suddenly said, "Do you want to make it up to me?"
Xu Hui met his deep eyes filled with hidden thoughts and subconsciously thought of something else.
She lowered her eyes and nodded obediently.
Ji Chuan: "You agreed before I even said anything?"
Xu Hui raised his eyes and inquired carefully, "What do you want me to do?"
He opened his lips slightly and said calmly, "Let's go get the certificate tomorrow."
Xu Hui's expression changed instantly, and his two bright eyes looked at him in panic.
"Time is tight, there's no time to prepare a proposal ceremony, and I haven't had time to visit your family yet, so we can only make things work. We'll get the marriage certificate first and complete the formalities later, and get on the bus first and buy the ticket later."
His tone was always calm, as if these words had been lingering in his mind for a long time and he just happened to choose this moment to say them out.
However, Xu Hui was still in a state of great shock. In his mouth, something as big as marriage became as simple as going to the supermarket.
Xu Hui knew that he had this intention a long time ago, but his mother's condition was too unstable, like a time bomb. Once the two of them got married, it would be like lighting the fuse of this bomb.
The topic of marriage has always been a heavy one, and she dared not even think about it.
"Your mother has just been discharged from the hospital..."
She was interrupted by him as soon as she opened her mouth. "Keep the marriage certificate secret in advance. Just think of it as a reassurance for me."
Xu Hui's eyes were dazed for a moment, and he realized that he was afraid that she would not be able to withstand his father's threats in the future and would separate from him again.
She was moved, but still worried, "There is no impenetrable wall, I'm afraid what if..."
"If they find out, it has nothing to do with you. You don't have to feel any psychological burden. If anything goes wrong, it can't be blamed on you. Her illness wasn't caused by you or me. The person who should be held responsible for her is Ji Qingming."
In the years since Ji Qingming left home, Ji Chuan and her mother have depended on each other. Over the years, he has taken on the responsibility of taking care of her mother, becoming her only emotional and spiritual sustenance, and also accommodating all her negative emotions.
He thought they were connected by heart, and that she was just too paranoid and narrow-minded. However, he never expected that she would stand together with Ji Qingming to obstruct him and force him.
Ji Chuan was not unfilial, he just felt cold-hearted. At the same time, it seemed as if the psychological burden he had been carrying for a long time was finally lifted. For the first time, he felt what it felt like to pursue his own happiness without any worries.
