Leng Yichen in her heart shouldn’t be like this...
Bai Yiran lay on the bed, locked away by her grandmother for several days, unaware of the events outside. She knew she had truly hurt her grandmother this time. If she had told her grandmother about it right away, perhaps things wouldn’t have turned out this way.
And now, besides regret for hiding things from her grandmother, the only feeling she had left was missing Leng Yichen.
It was only now that Bai Yiran realized that Leng Yichen had unknowingly walked into her heart a long time ago, that Lou Jing was right all along, only she realized it too late.
What if her grandmother firmly opposed? They were both people she loved, and Bai Yiran found herself in unprecedented anxiety.
At that moment, the door, which had always been locked, opened, and Bai Yiran looked up and saw Leng Yichen’s smiling face.
Without much thought, Bai Yiran urgently rushed over and hugged Leng Yichen. When the person she longed to see appeared right in front of her, the indescribable excitement made Bai Yiran’s tears fall unstoppably.
Leng Yichen wrapped his long arms tightly around Bai Yiran. He too had been enduring the same torment these days. If he wanted, he could have used his influence to get Bai Yiran out, but he knew he couldn’t do that. He understood how much Bai Yiran cared about her family, and if he truly did something to hurt them, Bai Yiran would never forgive him.
Thus, during these days, Leng Yichen did things he’d never do again in his life, like accompanying the old lady to dance in the square, haggling at the market, helping her snatch limited-offer discounted eggs at the supermarket...
Though these thoughts seemed laughable, Leng Yichen did them all with the aim of making the old lady accept him, like him, and entrust Bai Yiran to him.
Ultimately, his efforts paid off; the old lady relented. This moment was even more thrilling than when Leng Yichen took over Huamei International back in the day.
"Ahem! There’s someone else here! You two, pay attention!"
The sound of her grandmother’s voice came from behind, and Bai Yiran awkwardly detached herself from Leng Yichen’s embrace, looking tearfully at her beloved grandmother.
"Grandma, I was wrong... Please forgive me..."
"Ah..." Her grandmother, looking at her granddaughter whom she’d cherished since childhood, couldn’t help but think of her own daughter Cheng Ting, who had passed away long ago. Cheng Ting had also married Bai Hongguang without her knowledge. At the time, since it was a done deal, she hadn’t opposed much, but what was the outcome? Bai Hongguang cheated, and her daughter died in a car accident! So, upon discovering that Bai Yiran secretly got married, it was natural for her to connect it with Cheng Ting. She had already lost her precious daughter and couldn’t allow her granddaughter to repeat her mother’s fate. That’s why she opposed, why she tirelessly obstructed!
But in the end, she was defeated by them. Through observing Leng Yichen in these days, she found that Leng Yichen was different from Bai Hongguang. Perhaps Bai Yiran wouldn’t encounter the same tragedy as Cheng Ting, perhaps Leng Yichen truly would bring her happiness...
Her grandmother’s aged hand touched Bai Yiran’s face, speaking tenderly, "Yiran, Grandma shouldn’t have said those things. Don’t take them to heart, and don’t blame Grandma. I was just afraid you’d be like your mom..."
"Grandma!" Bai Yiran cried as she fell into her grandmother’s arms, "I will be happy, I truly will be!"
