Chapter 1188 Tears of Envy
Wen Ruoshui cried terribly, as if she wanted to cry out all the pain, unwillingness, resentment, and despair all at once. Her body trembled uncontrollably.
“Don’t cry.” Yan Yuanfei held her tightly and tried hard to control the trembling of his body. However, he could not control the quivering of his voice. He could only say the words that even he felt were cheap. “I’m sorry.”
Wen Ruoshui could clearly feel the man’s tears sliding down her neck, it was a warm feeling. When she was hugged by him, her heart hurt from being in contact with his bony frame.
She didn’t even have the courage to push him away. She was afraid that if she exerted even a little force, he would fall apart and disappear.
Look at him, look at how powerful he was. He was the one who had let her down and lied to her, but she couldn’t even vent her anger on him.
“I’m
sorry.”
Other than repeating those words, he really didn’t know what else to say. The woman he loved so deeply was now in his arms.
At this moment, he felt that even if he were to die immediately, he should be content to die by her side.
Wen Ruoshui heard the man apologizing over and over again. She angrily growled, “What I need is not your apology!”
“I know.” Yan Yuanfei smiled dotingly. He lowered his eyes and said, “If I can die by your side, my trip to this world would not be in vain.”
Wen Ruoshui opened her eyes suddenly. When she met the man’s eyes that were filled with heartache and affection, she bit her lips and curved her lips in self-mockery. “Yan Yuanfei, don’t think of using those flowery words to deceive me. I’m no longer the fool who allowed you to deceive me back then.”
“I’m the fool.” Yan Yuanfei used his hand to push her loose hair behind her ear, he gazed at her affectionately. “Life is short. It’s a pity that I just realized it. I shouldn’t have wasted so many years trying to fill up my life with memories. I shouldn’t have tried to guess your thoughts and decide your life for you.” Without her by his side, every minute felt like a year to him. The sweeter the memory, the more painful the reality.
Unfortunately, he realized it too late. He ended up torturing them both.
“You’re a b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” Wen Ruoshui’s eyes were like two pools of clear spring water. No matter how much tears flowed down her face, they would never stop flowing. He had rushed to finish what she wanted to say. What was she going to say? What was she supposed to say? Did it matter if he regretted it?
“If you don’t mind me being like this and still want me…” Yan Yuanfei paused for a moment. His eyes were as gentle as water, and his voice was hoa.r.s.e but very charming.” Miss Wen, I’m willing to let you control the rest of my life. Whether it’s one minute, one hour, or one day, it’s all fine.”
Wen Ruoshui bit her lips and looked at him only to cry. He was a scoundrel. There was no b.a.s.t.a.r.d in this world who could play with people’s hearts better than him!
Ling Sheng and Song Yiyan looked at Wen Ruoshui, who was busy in the kitchen. The two of them looked at each other and shared the same doubts. “Sheng Sheng, do you think your second uncle is too good at coaxing people?” Song Yiyan was curious and looked at the woman in the kitchen. “Aunt Wen is too kind!”
Second Uncle had lied to Auntie Wen for six whole years. If she were Auntie Wen, she would not forgive him nor cook for him. She would make feces for him instead and would rather the man die!
“How would I know? Aren’t my dad and the rest being kept in the dark as well?” Although Ling Sheng was itching to know whether Second Uncle was good at coaxing people or Auntie Wen was kind, everything would be better once the two of them reconciled!
“Sheng Sheng, do you have any scented oil?” Wen Ruoshui turned her head and looked at the two of them sneaking around. “What are you two doing?”
Song Yiyan shook her head and turned to leave. “Nothing. Auntie Wen, you must be busy!”
Ling Sheng hurriedly ran over to hand her the scented oil. “Auntie Wen, don’t worry. With Yanyan around, Second Uncle will definitely recover.”
Wen Ruoshui’s hand, which was holding the bottle of scented oil, suddenly froze for a moment. She tacitly agreed with her. No matter what the result was, she could accept it.
She could even accept being deceived for so many years. What else could she not accept? She was just unwilling to waste so many years of their time together because of his self-righteousness.
The matter between Yan Yuanfei and Wen Ruoshui, no matter which of them forgave the other first, was finally resolved.
After resting for a few hours, Yan Yuanfei looked much better. He sat on the bed and ate the porridge that Wen Ruoshui fed him.
Huo Ci and Nangong Lengyu stole a glance at the couple opposite them. They exchanged glances, their eyes filled with gratification as they clench their fists tightly.
Huo Ci’s apartment was very small. It had originally been his single apartment, and the original room had been renovated by him. There was a cinema, music studio, gym, game room, cloakroom, and study room.
Other than his master bedroom, there were only three guest rooms. Ling Sheng had one, Xiaoqi had one, and Huo Xiao and his wife had one. There was no other room for them to stay in.
As there was not enough s.p.a.ce for Lu Yubai to stay here, he looked down on him when he left and attacked him. “Sixth Brother, if you can’t afford a house, tell me. I’ll give you 20 million yuan. Let’s buy a bigger house for you. Look at that small place of yours, you can’t even afford to let us all stay.”
“Get lost!” Huo Ci was still fretting over how to distribute the rooms because Nangong Lengmo wanted to stay with Nangong Lun. He was already in a bad mood, so he kicked him out. “I bought my own house. Is it for you to live in?”
“After Yanyan finished taking care of the Second Brother, move over to my place.” Rong Yin didn’t say it directly, but the meaning behind his words was clear. The house was too small, not enough for them to live in!
Jiang Zhe suggested, “Big Brother, why don’t we send Second Brother over to your place right now? We can all stay together so that we can take care of him. Sixth Brother’s place is too crowded, and the environment isn’t good either.”
Huo Ci’s eyes burned with anger. In the past, he had never said that the place he lived in was small. Now, he was making things clear in hindsight. Did they think that his apartment was not good enough? Which b.a.s.t.a.r.d was the one who wanted to live in his apartment every day and refuse to leave no matter what! “Second Uncle needs time to recuperate. It’s not suitable for him to go back and forth.” Song Yiyan looked at the uncles who were about to start a fight. She looked at the luxurious and low-key apartment and shed tears of envy. She really didn’t understand the world of the rich.
It was such a big apartment, yet they thought it was too small. If these handsome uncles saw the small apartment she rented, they probably would be aghast.
