Chapter 2196: The promise to marry her at 25
The things that happened after that were even more serious.
Zhan ruxue was recuperating in the Li family, as she was li junyu’s fiancée in her heart.
Although her condition didn’t improve, it didn’t get worse.
Seeing that Zhan ruxue’s condition had stabilized, Yue xuexin wanted to send her overseas for treatment.
Redington Medical Group had authoritative doctors who could help Zhan ruxue recuperate in the sanatorium overseas.
However, Zhan ruxue refused to leave. She said that she was li junyu’s wife, and that she was worried that li junyu would be s.n.a.t.c.hed away by someone else if she left.
Li junyu’s voice was cold and indifferent, as if he was merely recounting an emotionless past.”Mother wanted to send Zhan ruxue abroad, but she refused. After much persuasion, mother could only lie to her and say that she could come back and marry me after she finished her Ph.D. Studies abroad. Otherwise, the Li family wouldn’t have accepted her as a granddaughter-in-law if she didn’t have a good education.”
The reason why she wanted to finish her Ph.D. Was that Yue xuexin did not know how long Zhan ruxue’s illness would take to be treated.
She remembered that she would need to be in her thirties to get a Doctor’s degree abroad. That was enough time for treatment.
Li junyu said,’who knew that Zhan ruxue would say that she was afraid that she would look old if she studied until she was 25 years old? I wouldn’t marry her. Mother promised on my behalf that if Zhan ruxue did not meet someone she liked overseas and was still single after the age of 25, I would marry her.
His mother had thought that Zhan ruxue would return to normal after such a long period of treatment. Or perhaps, after living abroad for so many years, she might have met someone more suitable. She had only said that to save Zhan ruxue. At that time, my mother’s health wasn’t good either. Under those circ.u.mstances, I had no choice but to acquiesce.”
This was what Zhan ruxue had said, the so-called fiancée who had been acknowledged by li junyu’s mother, the 25-year-old promise he had made.
Ruan Mengmeng had not expected that the truth would be like this.
If she were in his shoes, she didn’t know if she would do the same as her mother-in-law.
However, she probably couldn’t bear to ignore the daughter of a good friend who had sacrificed her life for her.
However, things were not over yet.
Just as Yue xuexin finally managed to persuade Zhan ruxue to start preparing to leave the country, she fell ill.
Yue xuexin was not in a good state of mind to begin with, and she was even more dejected when she was worried about Zhan ruxue. After a while, she actually started to become muddleheaded and even said strange things.
Yue xuexin’s temperament became weirder and weirder. She would occasionally Mutter to herself and even get angry at li yaoyang, who had gone to visit her.
But no matter what, she was still very good to the children, and the three li brothers would still find time to visit their mother.
However, due to Yue xuexin’s illness acting up, Zhan ruxue’s departure had been delayed.
One day, when li junyu stepped into the villa where his mother lived alone as usual, he saw a scene that he would never forget for the rest of his life.
His mother was lying in a pool of blood, and his two younger brothers were standing stupidly by the side of the pool. He walked over and hugged his two younger brothers with the calmness of an older brother.
“After my mother pa.s.sed away, I immediately sent Zhan ruxue overseas. Before this, her mother had already arranged everything for her, from treatment to school, living expenses, and even the servants and medical team to take care of her.
Zhan ruxue was receiving treatment overseas while gradually blending into the local school life. She was living the life of a real rich lady, just like the blueprint she had imagined for herself.
She was very hardworking and serious in her studies. Every year, she would send her results back. Ling bei is in charge of everything related to her. If you want to know the details, I can get Ling bei to tell you.”
In other words, li junyu wanted to continue his mother’s unfinished business and send someone to take care of Zhan ruxue.
However, he had never paid more attention to this Zhan ruxue than the daughters of ordinary old friends.
