Chapter 449: Chapter 449: He Shouldn’t Be _1
Jian Yufei stared at him with a sarcastic tilt to her lips, “You better not say it. Your love is too fake.”
Ruan Tianling’s face darkened, but then his expression softened,”Alright, I won’t say love. I just don’t want to lose you. I want to marry you. I want to take care of you for a lifetime. Is that a good enough reason?”
“No! Because I don’t love you, I don’t want to marry you, and I don’t need you to take care of me.”
“No matter, as long as I can’t stand to lose you, it’s enough that I want to marry you.”
Suppressing her rage, Jian Yufei spat out, “Are you deaf? I said I don’t need you!”
“Your attitude isn’t important.” Ruan Tianling said as if it wasn’t open for debat.
“…” Jian Yufei clenched her fists, she really wanted to slap him, “Get out, I don’t want to see you!”
“Go to sleep, if you don’t want to see me just close your eyes and sleep.” Ruan Tianling’s expression darkened slightly as he smiled and tucked away the ring.
He did not get angry, no matter how harsh she was, he controlled his temper well.
He used to be quick-tempered, slight disobedience or harsh words, he would get angry and punish her.
But now, he remained calm, even when she told him to scram, he was still smiling.
Jian Yufei was bewildered, she didn’t understand Ruan Tianling anymore.
Could it be that he really started caring about her, liking her?
Ha, he’d better not fallen for her, otherwise he’d be in pain for the rest of his life.
No one understands the taste of unrequited love better than her, it was really unbearable, really painful.
But she wouldn’t be so narcissistic to actually believe he was in love with her.
Jian Yufei closed her eyes, initially it was just to avoid seeing him, but she eventually fell into a drugged sleep.
Auntie Li brought over an old hen soup. Ruan Tianling instructed her to stay with Jian Yufei while he went to wash up and shave in the bathroom.
The whole morning, he didn’t take care of his appearance.
He was always fastidious about cleanliness, such behavior where he only washed up at noon was extremely rare.
Ruan Tianling changed into the clothes brought by Auntie Li, then left the sickroom to see Yan Yue next door.
Yan Yue was supposed to be discharged yesterday, yet she insisted on staying an extra day. He wondered if she had left already.
Upon opening the door to the sickroom, Yan Yue stood by the bed while her maid, Auntie Sun, was busy tidying up her belongings.
“Are you being discharged?” he asked.
Yan Yue turned and saw him, her eyes lit up with unrestrained joy, “Yes, I’m fine now. I can go home and rest. Tianling, could you take me home?”
“I’ll call someone to pick you up.”
“No need. We can get home ourselves.” Yan Yue responded dejectedly, turning her head away and avoiding his gaze.
Ruan Tianling didn’t know what to say. As he was about to leave, Yan Yue suddenly called out to him.
“Tianling, Jian Yufei lost her child, I feel very sorry. Pili attacked her to protect me. Could you not blame Pili?”
The mention of Pili abruptly cooled Ruan Tianling’s expression.
He remembered his words to Jian Yufei about respecting Pili and accepting him. Jian Yufei told him that Pili would not respect her, and she would not accept Pili.
He was indeed naive. How could he expect a dog to live in peace with Jian Yufei?
Pili only acknowledged him and Yan Yue. It was impossible that Pili would accept Jian Yufei just because he did.
He deeply regretted bringing Pili back. Otherwise, this tragedy would not have happened.
