My Ex-Wife Disappeared for Years and Had My Babies-Chapter 226 - 167: Do Not Take Advantage of Someone Who Loves You
Chapter 226: Chapter 167: Do Not Take Advantage of Someone Who Loves You
Seeing her helpless look, he really wanted to hold her in his embrace and cherish her; many hurtful words naturally couldn’t bear to be spoken. With some helpless sighs, he then said in a gentle tone, "It’s late today, let’s talk tomorrow."
Su Nian naturally heard the clear eviction order and, without getting a definitive answer, could only leave the room.
This time he didn’t considerately come out to tell her which room to sleep in, ask if she wanted to eat something, or ask if she would be cold under a blanket...
Instead, as soon as she left the room, he closed the door, cutting off the light from within, leaving only darkness in the room.
Relying on the light from outside the window, she fumbled into a room and curled up in the bed, hugging the blankets.
Her eyes, for some reason, began to feel sore.
Perhaps it would have been better not to see him; seeing his indifferent demeanor, she truly couldn’t remain apathetic.
She curled up in the blanket for a long time before she warmed up, and she didn’t know when she fell asleep, only feeling a dampness by the pillow...
Shen Hanxiu finished the last cigarette in the pack, opened the window to let the cold wind disperse the smell of smoke from his body, then stood up straight, pushed open the door to the opposite room.
In the darkness, only a bulge on the bed was visible.
The tall figure stopped beside the bed, looking down at the person on it.
Perhaps feeling cold, she had buried her entire head inside the blanket.
Walking to the other side, he lifted the blankets and bent down, his hand reaching under the cover to feel her feet, and the icy touch made him frown.
She shrank her feet but did not wake up.
Shen Hanxiu turned around, pulled out a blanket from the closet, and carefully laid it over her, worried about her catching a cold. He turned up the air conditioning a bit higher, lifted the blanket from her head, cradled her head with his large hand, tenderly placed it on the pillow with only her head out of the covers.
As she smacked her lips and turned over to continue sleeping, her innocent and adorable demeanor softened his heart.
His usually cold features also took on a warm tint...
Mai City’s night was equally cold.
Wei Lan curled up on the couch, holding a deep blue gift box in her hands.
Her tears had run dry.
After learning the real reason behind her marriage to Jing Zan, she still wanted to leave on amicable terms with everyone.
So, after crying all night, she still got up early in the morning to buy a gift.
They had agreed to have dinner together, but he called to say something had come up and he couldn’t make it.
Wei Lan sat alone in the restaurant for hours, until it closed, then she returned home, dispirited.
She had never imagined herself in such a marriage; she thought marrying the man she loved would make her happy, but she was just the laughingstock of their marriage...
At four in the morning, unable to resist sleepiness, she curled up on the couch and fell asleep crying.
Jing Zan waited for Zheng Shiwan to fall asleep deeply before leaving the house.
What he couldn’t deny was that his heart longed most to be by Wei Lan’s side, the girl who didn’t cry or fuss and was easily contented.
Little did he know, the place he was so eagerly rushing to no longer had that girl who would have been happy at his arrival.
He parked the car beneath the familiar building and skillfully used the keys to unlock the door.
He turned on the light in the entryway and was bending down to change shoes when his peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of the woman curled up on the couch.
Not bothering to change shoes, he strode over, took off his own coat and draped it over her. When he noticed her stirring, he asked, "It’s so cold, why sleep here? Don’t you have a quilt to cover yourself?"
Wei Lan sat up and looked at him. Normally, she would have been elated by his consideration, then would have wrapped her arms around him coming home late at night, saying, "I’ve been waiting for you to come home!"
But now, she couldn’t muster a smile. Let alone smile, it was already good that she could hold back her tears.
Casually removing his coat, she glanced at the wall clock, smiled so terribly it was even uglier than crying, and regretfully said, "What a pity, your birthday has already passed..."
Jing Zan was taken aback, not expecting her to remember his birthday. Covering his own guilt, he embraced her saying, "It doesn’t matter, I didn’t even remember it myself."
Wei Lan felt cold inside; he was lying again.
Her phone still had the bragging photos Zheng Shiwan sent earlier in the evening, showing her celebrating Jing Zan’s birthday. ƒreewebɳovel.com
"It’s getting late, let’s go to sleep inside," saying this, he bent over to pick up Wei Lan, but she pressed down on his hand, turned her head, pulled out a blue gift box and handed it to him, "This is the gift I prepared for you..."
Jing Zan, smiling, reached out to take it, his affection for the girl intensifying.
Wanwan asked him for a divorce, but how could he bear it? He even thought that if it really came down to making a choice, he might choose Wei Lan; only with her did he feel that true happiness...
