Chapter 646 Sad Fate...
In the evening…
Returning to the city, Lu Family members went to the Lu Mansion while Mo Ruolan went to Jiang Residence.
Jiang Peizhi was waiting for his wife to return while Jiang Yang was in the hospital as usual. Both being unaware of what had happened in the village and Mo Ruolan didn"t know how to tell them about this.
Mo Ruolan was silent since she returned and Jiang Peizhi thought it must be because she was tired but in the night, he saw her shedding tears while standing near the window.
Jiang Peizhi got up from the bed and went to his wife. "What happened?" he asked straightway as he knew she was crying.
Startled by his sudden voice, Mo Ruolan wiped the tears in a hurry. Not turning to look at her husband, Mo Ruolan replied, "Nothing. Just I could not sleep."
Though the light in the room was dim, Jiang Peizhi could sense she was crying and turned her around to face him.
"Why are you crying?" he asked.
"I was thinking about Yuyan."
"Hmm!" Jiang Peizhi took her to the bed and let her sit at its edge. Offering her water, he asked, "Tell me what is going on in your mind?"
After spending more than half of their lifetime together, Jiang Peizhi was familiar with each action of his wife and it didn"t take him much time to guess something was not right.
Jiang Peizhi calmly waited for his wife to answer.
"I think I could have stopped all this from happening but I didn"t," Mo Ruolan spoke, her eyes still teary and voice heavy.
"Why are you thinking like this? There are things we can"t stop even if we try."
"Mo Ruolan looked at her husband and asked, "Do you remember, once I said Yuyan might get married twice?"
"Hmm!" he looked at her to continue.
"I could have stopped it if I had completely believed in what the master said at that time. Lu Qiang loved her so much that I thought he would never divorce her and her fate might change but never ever I thought he would leave her like this."
"What are you trying to say?" Jiang Peizhi asked, knowing she was overthinking.
"Yuyan"s fate had brought death upon him. If I had opposed the marriage or didn"t bring Yuyan back here, he would be alive. It"s all my fault to bring her back to China and they met and fell in love. If only I had kept her there, all this wouldn"t have happened."
"Don"t think like this. It was written in Lu Qiang"s fate too. If he had only this much life to live, then it would be the same even if the means would have been different," Jiang Peizhi countered to console her.
"Still, I can"t stop blaming myself for his death and our daughter"s suffering. It would have been better if she had stayed lonely for her life. At least Lu Qiang would be alive and Yuyan would have been living her dream somewhere far, even though she had planned to be alone for her life."
Mo Ruolan couldn"t stop crying out loud as the guilt and pain she was feeling was too heavy. Jiang Peizhi hugged her to console her, but it made her cry even more.
"Only if I had listened to her when she said she didn"t want to come to china. Only if I had stopped meddling in her life and making decisions for her, only if..."
Jiang Peizhi interrupted his wife, "It"s not your fault, Ruolan. Stop blaming yourself. I told you even then too that we can"t change what is in one"s destiny."
"But why does our daughter have such a bad fate written? First, her husband left, and now she had to marry a kid. Why?"
Her last words shocked Jiang Peizhi, but he thought he had heard something wrong. Letting her go from his hold, Jiang Peizhi looked at his wife, "What did you just say?"
"You heard it right. Yuyan got married."
Jiang Peizhi exclaimed as it was a shocking thing for him. "What?" and the next words he heard were even shocking for him.
"She married Lu Lijun."
Getting out of the bed angrily, Jiang Peizhi asked, "This is not the time to say whatever you feel. Get back to your senses."
"I am talking the truth and this is what happened."
"How can this be? If it"s the truth, then let me go get the answers," Saying, Jiang Peizhi turned to get his jacket that was hung up on the jacket stand, his intentions clear, to get the answers from the Lus.
He sent his daughter to their family trusting them and it was fine. Her husband died, it was fine too as there was nothing anyone could do about but how can they make her marry at such a time and that too with a kid.
So many thoughts ran in his mind as he thought they must have forced her to marry Lu Lijun given his bad condition and must be because all of Lu Qiang"s wealth had gone to Jiang Yuyan.
"How can they do this with her?" Jiang Peizhi said as he wore his jacket.
"It was Yuyan"s decision. No one asked her to marry him," said Mo Ruolan as she saw her calm husband burning in anger.
This shocked Jiang Peizhi again, and he looked at his wife in disbelief.
"Calm down first and I will explain everything to you."
Jiang Peizhi went back to the bed where his wife was sitting and sat back. Mo Ruolan explained everything to him and Jiang Peizhi could just give out a deep sigh hearing it.
Not knowing what to do, Jiang Peizhi said, "It"s simply not acceptable. How can…."
"I know what you are thinking as I was the same when it happened. We can"t change the fact and can"t think about why she has done this, but at this moment we should just trust and support her."
"How can I support such an outrageous decision and let her ruin her life?"
