Chapter 18 Reminiscence
"Uh..." An Guodong had no time to stop crying when he heard this, and there was still a look of pain on his face.
"You want to kick me out? You don't want me anymore?"
Lin Qingwan's eyes were filled with tears, and she looked very pitiful.
"No, no, no."
An Guodong shook his head hurriedly, rubbed his face with his big hands, and looked anxious.
"How can I bear to give you up? You are the mother of my child and the woman I love the most."
He had never said any sweet words to Lin Qingwan. He just treated her well with all his heart and gave her the best things.
When Lin Qingwan heard this, a red cloud floated on her fair cheek. She reached out and grabbed An Guodong's hand, holding it tightly.
"Then why are you still telling me to leave? We have been married for more than 20 years. How could I ignore your kindness to me? How could I bear to abandon you and our children? You are really hurting my heart by saying that."
"I was wrong. Qingwan, don't be angry. You know I'm tongue-tied and can't speak well, so can you forgive me this time?"
An Guodong was afraid that she would be angry, and there was anxiety in his voice.
Then he looked at Lin Qingwan with a serious expression.
"Qingwan, are you really not going to go back and recognize your relatives? Don't be angry, I know you are not a girl from an ordinary family, and you are not trying to marry into a wealthy family. I am also reluctant to let you go and am afraid of losing you, but I also can't bear to see you suffer with me."
"Why."
Lin Qingwan sighed softly. To this day, when I think about what happened, I don’t feel much fluctuation in my heart.
"Things are not as simple as you think. If I go back to recognize my relatives, how will An Ran accept it?"
An Guodong fell silent after hearing this.
When An Guodong was working outside, he liked to hike when he had nothing to do. That day, he found Lin Qingwan unconscious under an unknown cliff.
He is young and strong, with a passion to help others. He carried the unconscious Lin Qingwan down the mountain and sent her to the hospital. Lin Qingwan was blessed with a good life. She was four months pregnant and had basically no injuries except for some scratches on her body. The most serious thing was that she got an egg-sized bump on the back of her head. After she woke up, she couldn't remember anything except that her name was Lin Qingwan.
The doctor discharged them after a few days of hospitalization. Regarding the memory loss, the doctor said it was caused by a head injury and that they would probably remember it after the swelling subsided for a while.
An Guodong felt sorry for her because she was alone and pregnant. The place where he worked was not suitable for women to live in, so he had to take her back to his hometown.
And Lin Qingwan hasn't remembered anything since she woke up. However, she is extremely dependent on An Guodong and often follows him closely.
I could see that her belly couldn't be covered and was getting bigger day by day. Afraid that rumors would spread in the village, he could only claim that Lin Qingwan was his girlfriend.
The two young people lived together day and night, and Lin Qingwan was beautiful and charming. An Guodong fell deeply in love with her, but he always restrained himself. I want to wait until Lin Qingwan recovers her memory and then send her home.
As the days passed, after ten months of pregnancy, the baby was born safely.
But Lin Qingwan could never remember her past. The two young people who pretended to be a couple finally understood each other's minds and became real husband and wife.
That’s right, An Ran is not An Guodong’s biological daughter. But he loved Anran so much that he treated her as his own child and loved her deeply.
Lin Qingwan looked at An Guodong with gratitude. This was the man who tolerated everything about her without any regrets.
She told An Guodong about her past in a calm tone.
It turned out that she was the daughter of the Lin family, a wealthy family in Beijing. My parents are still alive and I have an older brother. When she was 22 years old, she followed her family's arrangement and married Ji Qiubai, the youngest son of the Ji family, who was a well-matched family at the time.
The Ji family and the Lin family are both the most wealthy families in Beijing, so this marriage can be considered a match made in heaven. Mrs. Ji gave birth to three daughters before she had this only child. Being pampered by everyone, Ji Qiubai had an arrogant and domineering personality since childhood, but when he grew up he became a polite and handsome young talent.
Lin Qingwan's father often sighed, saying that it is often said that a child's future can be seen at the age of three, and his old age can be known at the age of five. It is conceivable how unreliable this statement is. When the Ji family came to propose marriage, Lin's father agreed without hesitation.
After she got married, she found that Ji Qiubai was not as good as he appeared to be. Fortunately, due to the Lin family's background, Ji Qiubai still respects her.
Unfortunately, the good times didn’t last long. She had been pregnant for two years after getting married, and her mother, Ji, who was waiting to have a grandchild, was very anxious. The two of them underwent a lot of checkups, and the result was that there was nothing wrong with either of them. Having a child depended on fate.
Ji's mother had been dissatisfied for a long time, and her words were usually sarcastic and mocking. Ji Qiubai never returned home at night, and it was normal not to be seen for ten days or half a month.
Lin Qingwan was raised and spoiled by her parents and had a gentle personality. She had never seen such a scene before. She mentioned this to her parents, but they advised her and her husband to communicate more. Helpless, although I was sad, I never told my family about it.
Suddenly one day, she felt unwell and went to the hospital for a check-up, where she found out that she was more than two months pregnant. Ji's mother immediately changed her expression and started to show concern and care for her.
She naively thought that as long as she gave birth to the child, the Ji family would truly accept her and treat her as one of their own family members.
Comfortable days passed one by one, and when the child was more than three months old, Ji Qiubai accompanied her to his private hospital for a prenatal check-up. When the doctor announced the gender of the fetus, that it was a little princess, Ji Qiubai's face showed obvious displeasure but then returned to normal.
After that, Ji Qiubai often found various reasons to avoid accompanying her to the hospital for prenatal checkups.
That day, Lin Qingwan went to the hospital for a check-up accompanied by her nanny. Just as she was about to leave the hospital, she felt like going to the bathroom, so she asked the nanny to wait for her there and went to the bathroom alone.
Passing a corner of the corridor, I looked up and saw Ji Qiubai supporting a girl with a big belly into the clinic. The girl's belly was bulging and it looked like she was already quite pregnant. Lin Qingwan felt like she was struck by lightning and followed him into the clinic in disbelief.
When Ji Qiubai saw Lin Qingwan suddenly appear in front of him, he was stunned and avoided her gaze guiltily. Seeing this, the pregnant girl took Ji Qiubai's hand as a protest.
Lin Qingwan had nothing to understand at this point, so she went straight back to her parents' home, told her parents the reason, and asked for a divorce from Ji Qiubai.
Lin's father angrily reprimanded Ji Qiubai, and in order to vent his sister's anger, his brother Lin Qingtang also severely blocked them from the company project that was cooperating with Ji's.
Under pressure, Ji's family, father and mother, took Ji Qiubai to the Lin's house to apologize.
Lin's father asked Ji Qiubai to get rid of the child and break up with the girl completely. Ji Qiubai weighed the pros and cons and agreed patiently.
Lin's father and mother persuaded Lin Qingwan to forgive Ji Qiubai for the sake of the child, and let her go back with Ji's family.
No one expected that Ji Qiubai agreed on the surface but secretly hated the Lin family.
After returning to the Ji family, Ji Qiubai became considerate and gentle, putting Lin Qingwan first in everything. Just when everyone thought he had turned over a new leaf, he was secretly plotting how to make Lin Qingwan disappear.
Finally one day, Ji Qiubai coaxed Lin Qingwan and said he would take her to a beautiful place for a trip. Get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and let their little princess experience the beauty of nature.
Because he had been behaving well during this period, Lin Qingwan did not suspect anything and followed him out. The two drove along the way and came to the mountain where she had the accident.
Although she is pregnant, her physical condition is good and the baby is not yet noticeable. Lin Qingwan usually likes mountains and rivers. She saw this beautiful mountain with lush trees and a winding path stretching upwards.
She was in a very good mood, and the two of them walked slowly up the mountain hand in hand. Ji Qiubai intentionally or unintentionally led her to the edge of a cliff, and when she was not prepared, he pushed her off the cliff.
He looked down the cliff with cold eyes, blaming no one but her for blocking his way. Then, he went down the mountain as if nothing had happened.
He had observed this place a long time ago. There were rubbles all under the cliff. If someone fell from it, not only a pregnant woman, but even an ordinary person would be dead.
What Lin Qingwan didn't know was that before bringing her out, the meticulous Ji Qiubai had already arranged everything outside.
He had an absolute alibi for her disappearance.
