Xu Xiangru sat on the edge of the bed with her head slightly lowered.
Because he hadn't figured out how to tell the other person about his own affairs, he looked particularly quiet with his head down and not saying anything.
In Hong Baineng's eyes, he felt as if he were standing in front of a gentle summer lotus, which seemed to sway gently with a slight breeze.
It makes people's hearts sway gently.
Hong Baineng looked at Xu Xiangru who was silent. After thinking about it, he felt that it would be better for him to speak first, as the other person might not know what to say.
"Um, can I just call you Xiangru?" Hong Baineng decided to start with his name. "My name is Hong Baineng, you can call me by my name too."
Xu Xiangru raised her head when she heard this. Her fair cheeks and slightly pointed chin caught Hong Baineng's eyes, making the latter like her even more.
I heard that Xu Xiangru divorced her ex-husband because she was infertile, but Hong Baineng thought, if he could have such a beautiful wife, what would it matter if they didn't have children? What's more, I heard that they had a daughter.
It's really hard to understand why he could bear to give up such a beautiful wife.
Xu Xiangru didn't know how highly Hong Baineng thought of her in his heart, but when she heard this, she felt that she had to quickly explain her situation to Hong Baineng.
She thought about it and felt that there was no need to lay any groundwork. After all, the two of them were very strangers to each other, so it would be better to just be straightforward.
"Hello, it's the first time we meet...but I think this may be the only time we meet." Xu Xiangru said directly.
As soon as Hong Baineng heard Xu Xiangru say this, he was a little confused.
Wasn't this rejected a bit too quickly?
"No, no, we just met, why are you..."
Hong Baineng suddenly became panicked.
He really has a very good impression of Xu Xiangru, so why does Xu Xiangru dislike him so much?
But if he doesn't like her, he should at least give a reason. He can't be rejected like this.
"Don't you like my looks?" Hong Baineng thought for a moment and said carefully, "I'm not good-looking enough for you, but I'm a hard worker. If you marry me, I'll make sure you have enough to eat. I can't guarantee delicious meals every day, but as long as I have something to eat, you won't go hungry. I'll definitely be a good husband!"
Although Hong Baineng himself is not bad looking, he is just decent in appearance after all, and there is indeed some gap between him and Xu Xiangru, who is still very beautiful even though she is a bit older.
Hong Baineng could only quickly express his attitude, hoping to satisfy Xu Xiangru in other aspects.
Hong Baineng has a very handsome appearance, and especially now when he said this he seemed very sincere, which made Xu Xiangru stunned.
She was actually a little touched when she heard this. After all, this was the best promise a man could make to a woman on this day.
But she... couldn't accept it.
Xu Xiangru waved her hands, her expression becoming more serious: "It's not your problem, and I don't dislike your looks, you look very good."
Hong Baineng: "Then why can't you consider me?"
"It's my fault, actually," Xu Xiangru said directly, "I think you know that my ex-husband and I divorced not long ago, right?"
Hong Baineng nodded.
He must know this.
But why did Xu Xiangru mention this... Could it be that she is still obsessed with her ex-husband?
Hong Baineng suddenly felt a little discouraged.
If that's the case then nothing I say will be of any use.
Women will definitely be more attached to their first husband.
I heard that Xu Xiangru's ex-husband was very handsome and he couldn't compare with others.
Xu Xiangru couldn't help but frown when she saw Hong Baineng looked so depressed just because she had just said something.
She hadn't even finished her words when this person's expression suddenly turned so bad.
No matter what Hong Baineng was thinking at the moment, Xu Xiangru still had to finish what she was saying.
"You probably know the reason why I divorced my ex-husband. It was because I couldn't have children. But maybe God just likes to play tricks on people like this. I just found out... I'm pregnant now. The child is my ex-husband's."
"So I'm sorry, I can't marry you with a child. Thank you for taking such a long trip."
Hong Baineng was a little confused.
What did he just hear?
Xu Xiangru...is now pregnant with her ex-husband's child?
"So you...you kept this child because you wanted to remarry your ex-husband, right?"
Hong Baineng felt a little uncomfortable.
Since his wife passed away, he has dated several women, but Xu Xiangru is the one he feels most satisfied with and the one he most wants to marry.
I didn't expect that such a thing would happen now.
Xu Xiangru had already told the whole story, and now she felt particularly relaxed.
She shook her head: "My ex-husband is already married. I can't remarry him. Even if he is not married, I will not remarry him."
"But I can't give up this child."
"I have some health problems and it's difficult for me to get pregnant. My previous daughter was coaxed into staying with my ex-husband's family by his mother. Now this child is my greatest hope."
Hong Baineng looked at Xu Xiangru: "Is this why you want to keep the child?"
Xu Xiangru nodded: "Besides, my health is not good. If I abort him, it will be very dangerous. I can't take this risk."
"You are very good. You will definitely find a better wife. I am not worthy of you."
Hong Baineng's conditions are really good, and Xu Xiangru now believes that her sister-in-law is really concerned about this matter.
But she had no choice.
After hearing Xu Xiangru say these words, Hong Baineng was silent for a while.
After waiting for a long time, Xu Xiangru said: "You..."
"If I'm willing to let you keep the baby, will you marry me?"
Hong Baineng suddenly said something that shocked Xu Xiangru.
Xu Xiangru was stunned for a moment.
She couldn't help but stare at Hong Baineng with her eyes wide open.
"Would you like to?"
Hong Baineng looked into Xu Xiangru's still beautiful eyes and repeated his words.
Xu Xiangru finally came to her senses: "Are you crazy? Who would be willing to raise a child for someone else? I'm pregnant..."
"So what? I'm raising your child, not your ex-husband's," Hong Baineng said matter-of-factly. "We already have two sons, so one more won't be a problem. The three brothers can still support each other in the future."
Xu Xiangru was really stunned at this moment.
She thought that as long as she told the other party that she was pregnant, she would definitely scare him away, but she didn't expect Hong Baineng to say such a thing.
She just stared at him blankly.
