Chapter 1001 Redemption
"I'm a girl after all, and I've already taken the initiative twice. If you're still a man and have some sense of responsibility, don't make me go to your house a third time!"
These words clearly express one's feelings.
Lin Xian felt a little embarrassed, and showed her timidity after she finished speaking domineeringly.
She turned around and tried to run, but her arm suddenly tightened.
The young man who had been silent all this time pulled her back.
She turned around in shock and met those eyes that seemed to have experienced the vicissitudes of life.
Ling Yuan lowered his brows and looked at her:
"Do you really understand? I'm not worthy of you!"
Lin Xian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed, looking him up and down and said:
"You have healthy hands and feet, two eyes, a nose, and a mouth. You have everything I have, so how can I be unworthy of you?"
Ling Yuan pursed his lips, let go of her hand and looked away.
Under the streetlight, the curve of his frowning face was still clear and smooth, but it seemed to have an inexplicable sense of loneliness and anger.
"I... I've been divorced once and have children. I also lost my job at the farm and am now unemployed..."
He enumerated his own poor conditions and finally concluded:
"I really don't deserve you."
"Like I said, I understand your situation. Let's not talk about your previous marriage for now. As for the child... I don't know how others raise their children, but I can at least do one thing: treat her the way my mother treated me. As for work, that's even easier. You have a degree, so you won't have to worry about not finding a job."
Lin Xian took a breath and continued:
"I have a job and can earn money. It's okay if you want to take a break and not rush to find a job."
“…”
Ling Yuan was silent.
Zheng looked back at Lin Xian for a while before asking the question that had been puzzling him:
"Why do you like me so much?"
"This question..."
Lin Xian smiled and said:
"At first I wanted to deal with my mom, but then I learned a little about you and I had other ideas."
Lin Xian has a good impression of Ling Yuan, but it definitely doesn't reach the level of love, and it's even a little short of liking him.
But Lin Xian knew that Ling Yuan was a very good person.
If they were together, Ling Yuan would be a qualified or even excellent husband.
The marriage partners found in blind dates are all pretty much the same.
If she must get married, she must choose her own partner.
And she chose Ling Yuan.
Lin Xian did not hide it.
Ling Yuan was stunned for a moment.
After a moment's thought, he looked at Lin Xian cautiously and spoke in depth about something that Lin Xian didn't know:
"I won't be looking for a job anymore. Starting a farm business is extremely risky... and once the place is cleaned up, I'll stay on the farm. If, if..."
Ling Yuan was embarrassed to say the word "marriage", so he just walked past it and said:
"I can't always be with you."
Lin Xian shook her head. "It's okay. When you're resting or have some free time, you can come find me. I can also come find you when I'm on vacation. We're still young and can focus on work."
Ling Yuan's eyes were deep, he pursed his lips, thought for a while and said:
"We can't have children, at least not until Sui Sui starts elementary school."
Lin Xian was slightly stunned and did not react for a moment.
Ling Yuan continued:
"If you agree, I will go back and prepare for the engagement."
By the time Sui Sui went to elementary school, she already knew a lot of things.
If there's a problem, she'll say...
Ling Yuan knew that this request was probably excessive, but he had no choice but to mention it.
Ling Yuan lowered his head and slumped his shoulders.
The girl is getting married for the first time and he is getting married for the second time. It’s very kind of her not to look down on him.
Now he has to be on guard against me, fearing that I might harm the child...
No matter who encounters this, they will feel uncomfortable.
After talking about his request for the child, Ling Yuan actually no longer had any hope.
He silently waited for Lin Xian to scold him, but Lin Xian nodded.
"Can."
"What?"
Ling Yuan looked up in surprise.
Lin Xian smiled, nodded, and repeated:
"I said yes."
After all, it's not a marriage that starts with love.
If they really had to consider having children right after getting married, Lin Xian would find it difficult to do so.
Ling Suisui is now one and a half years old. She can go to the Yuhong class at the age of four or five, and then to elementary school.
The few years in between are a good time for mutual acceptance and adjustment.
Lin Xian can accept it.
But although she could accept it, Ling Yuan could not.
Ling Yuan was at a loss, and kept explaining and persuading:
"Think it over carefully. This is very unfair to you! Don't be so hasty. At least go back and discuss it with your parents!"
Lin Xian looked at him jokingly, and suddenly felt a little amused.
Lin Xian didn't know whether to say Ling Yuan was stupid and honest, or to say something else.
You were quite decisive when you made the request just now.
Why is he still not calm even though others have agreed?
"I can make decisions on this matter myself, without asking anyone else. But you, don't forget what you just said."
Lin Xian ran back a few steps, then turned around at the entrance of the alley and reminded with a smile:
"Every word you say is a nail. I'll tell my mother about this when I get home... Don't forget, I'll be waiting for you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xian's shadow disappeared from his sight, and he could only vaguely hear the "thump thump thump" sound of footsteps gradually fading away in the alley.
Ling Yuan held the front of the bicycle with one hand and stretched out the other hand slightly as if he wanted to grab something.
Only when the sound of footsteps gradually faded away did he withdraw his gaze and hand.
Staring at the bicycle seat, Ling Yuan stayed there for a long time before riding back.
Ling Yuan actually felt a little conflicted about letting go.
But since he had already made the decision with Lin Xian, Ling Yuan explained the situation to his family after returning home and was actively preparing for the follow-up.
When Lu Miao heard the news, he was surprised for a while, but after thinking about it, he understood.
No one can resist someone who is truly passionate.
and……
The person who traps himself in a cage and shackles himself is often the one who most desires redemption.
Although Lu Miao didn't know what exactly happened, she was not surprised at Ling Yuan's transformation.
Both families were optimistic about this matter. Lingyuan had been reluctant before, but now that Lingyuan had agreed, the date was quickly set.
The engagement was made on May 1st Labor Day, and the wedding was held on May 21st, Grain Full Day.
Ling Yuan is getting married for the second time and feels guilty towards Lin Xian, so he is very concerned about matters related to marriage.
Although the Lin family did not mention it, the village rules, such as three turns and one ring, new cupboards and cabinets, include house renovations.
Ling Yuan did everything he could think of.
He had just started raising funds to start a farm, but he didn't actually have that much money.
Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou knew what was going on and secretly sent him an envelope.
Let him focus on the important things at hand and not rush to pay it back. Wait until his life is stable in the future.
