Chapter 423: Settle for the Second Best



Chu Yan choked up and spoke, and his words made the people in front of him fall into disarray.

The regret is for both of us.

It's him and her.

Otherwise, how could there be this confusion of memories and this dream in the human world?

Qing Yue turned her face away, feeling heartbroken.

"Yue'er..."

Chu Yan seemed to have a thousand words to say, but the next moment, Qing Yue suddenly turned around and looked at the Qing family and said, "Dad, Mom, Brother, I want to go talk to Brother Yan alone. You wait here for a while. When I come back, we will go back to the Qing family.

Qing Yue spoke.

Qing Leishan opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but finally nodded, "Okay."

Nanjiao Temple was under strict lockdown, and there wasn't a single tourist around. Qingyue and Chu Yan left the villa together and stood in an open area.

"Yue'er, are you okay?"

The weather in autumn and winter is a bit cold. Qingyue's face is a little pale, and due to her previous emotional breakdown, her eyes are a little red, and she looks a bit weak. But if you look at the look in Qingyue's eyes, there is only a deep coldness left.

"fine."

Qing Yuedao.

Chu Yan's heart ached so much that he almost suffocated. He wanted to hug the little girl in front of him, but he didn't dare to, for fear of making her angry.

Thinking of the sweet time in the past few months, he felt like he couldn't breathe. If it weren't for these accidents, he and Yue'er would have lived such sweet days as before. It's a pity that now it has become a dream.

He had been hoping that this dream would last forever, but it turned out to be only four or five months.

"Yue'er, you... have met Feng Ling, right? He knows about the child..."

There was an endless silence between the two of them, and it was finally Chu Yan who broke the silence first. He felt extremely uneasy when he asked this question.

The next moment, Qing Yue raised her eyes and said, "If he doesn't know, I won't let him know."

Qing Yue's clear eyes were filled with deeply suppressed hatred.

"Brother Ayan, I will never let Feng Ling know about the existence of this child. I told him that this child is yours. Brother Ayan, I'm sorry for using you as a shield."

Qingyue said.

Chu Yan's heart skipped a beat. He couldn't help but take a step forward and looked down at the little girl in front of him. "Yue'er, there's no need to apologize to Brother Yan. I'm already very happy that you thought of me. Yue'er, Brother Yan has already treated the child as his own these days. Yue'er, would you mind divorcing Feng Ling and staying with Brother Yan?"

Chu Yan endured for a while, and finally said what he had been holding in his heart.

Because from Qingyue's words, he could hear Yue'er's disgust and hatred towards Fengling.

He thought, maybe he still has a chance.

But when he finished speaking, he saw Qing Yue raise her head and look at him. Her red eyes were cold and calm, without a trace of love. His heart sank heavily, and then he heard Qing Yue say, "Brother Ayan, do you think there is still a chance for us?"

Without waiting for Chu Yan to answer, Qing Yue continued, "It's impossible, Brother Yan, we can't go back."

"Why can't we go back? Yue'er, let's forget about the past and just live like these days. You, me, and the baby in your belly, Brother Yan will raise them as his own, okay?"

"not good."

Qing Yue raised her head and looked at Chu Yan.

"Brother Ayan, you know it's impossible. The past five months were because my memory was disordered. Unfortunately, now... how can you let me pretend that nothing happened? I... can no longer feel any love here. Brother Ayan, I have lost the ability to love. All that is left here is hatred!"

Qing Yue pointed at her heart with tears in her eyes.

"Brother Ayan, I hate Qing Yunyao, I hate Gui Lao, I hate Feng Ling, and I even hate you... I really want to kill everyone who has harmed me to this point. If it weren't for my unrevenged hatred, if it weren't for my family's suffering, I would have ended my life the moment I woke up, the moment I knew I was pregnant!"

Qingyue said every word.

But Chu Yan felt like he was falling into an ice cellar.

"Brother Ayan, Feng Ling and I won't be together anymore, but I can't be with you either. I don't love you anymore, I haven't loved you for a long time."

Every word and sentence was as sharp as a knife or a needle, making Chu Yan's eyes red.

"Yue'er, it was Brother Ayan who failed to protect you. If this is your intention, then Brother Ayan will not force you, but let Brother Ayan stay by your side. Now that you are pregnant and want to stay away from Feng Ling, if he knows the child is his, he will definitely not give up. Whether it is the emperor or Concubine Feng, neither will allow the royal heir to wander outside, nor will they allow you to divorce him.

You were willing to use Brother Ayan as a shield before, which shows that you still have trust in Brother Ayan. If that's the case, let everyone think that this is Brother Ayan's child. You stay with Brother Ayan, and Brother Ayan will do his utmost to protect you and the child, okay?"

Chu Yan said softly.

This was the best approach he could come up with.

Settle for the next best thing.

This way, the moon won’t stay away from you.

His girl has suffered too much pain and lost the ability to love, but that doesn't matter. He will stay by her side and move forward step by step. One day, he will be able to make Yue'er open her heart again.

Qing Yue's eyes were complicated, and she frowned as she looked at Chu Yan in front of her. She knew that this was the best way to make Feng Ling give up completely, but she was hesitant to agree.

As if he could guess what Qing Yue was thinking, Chu Yan's cold eyes moved, and he continued, "Yue'er, Brother Yan knows what you are thinking. You want revenge, right? You want to make all those who have hurt you and us pay the price and seek justice. You also want to cut off ties with Brother Yan because you hate the person who drugged Feng Ling four years ago. You thought it was done by Brother Yan's family, right?"

Qing Yue's pupils shrank, and she raised her eyes to meet Chu Yan's gaze.

They were childhood sweethearts, grew up together, and had known each other for more than ten years. They were very familiar with and understood each other, so Chu Yan could easily guess what she was thinking.

It was just as he said, now all she had left in her heart was hatred.

Qing Yunyao, the foreigner, Qin Hongzhang...

She even hated Feng Ling, who had taken away her innocence, but she also hated the culprit who had poisoned Feng Ling with love...

She will settle accounts with all those involved, and then take revenge on them.

This was the purpose of her rebirth and awakening.

But the next moment, Chu Yan said, "Yue'er, during the time when your memory was confused, Brother Yan has been investigating what happened back then. However, both Mother and Grandpa have denied anything that happened. That night, Feng Ling was poisoned and assassinated. It wasn't Brother Yan's family who did it, and it has nothing to do with us. Someone else wanted to harm him and kill him."
