No matter what, Fu Jie was still his mother by blood. This was a fact that could not be changed.
He did not want Fu Jie to continue making mistakes and end up making even bigger mistakes.
“Do you think it’s possible?” Fu Jie’s eyes were lifeless as she looked at Lin Yu in a daze.
“Think about it yourself.”
Lin Yu didn’t say anything else and left the room.
Jing Chen might already know that he did not get along with Fu Jie, but he did not understand why he would call him and tell him what Fu Jie had done.
Did he want him to use the last bit of kinship he had to persuade her to repent?
Lin Yu smiled bitterly. This seemed unlikely.
After Lin Yu left, Fu Jie lay in bed alone from day to night. Images of the past flashed through her mind frame by frame.
She and Lin Shi were in love with each other. Later on, they got married and had a child. It was clearly very sweet after the marriage, but where did it start to change?
From the time she refused to calm down to talk to Lin Shi, from the time she forced Lin Yu to study law no matter what, from the time she was stubborn and unwilling to admit her mistakes…
Tears streamed down her face like water, and the pillow was instantly soaked.
“Stop.”
Lin Yu’s words echoed in her ears again.
But was it too late?
After a long while, Fu Jie slowly got up and went to the bathroom to clean herself up.
[Can you tell me who the person who asked you to look for me is now?] Fu Jie took a deep breath and sent the message.
There was a reply quickly. [I have to ask that person first and see if they are willing to tell you.]
Fu Jie frowned and put away her phone.
He was so mysterious.
Fu Jie suddenly recalled what Qin Lan had said before she left. “Don’t be used by others. You won’t even know how you died.”
‘Used?’
Fu Jie fell into doubt…
Jing Chen hugged Su Wan tightly and brought her home.
But Su Wan still seemed to have not come back to her senses. She grabbed Jing Chen’s arm in fear and asked, “Jing Chen, did you destroy the video? Otherwise, she will use the video to threaten me.”
Jing Chen comforted Su Wan over and over again. “It’s fine, Wan wan. If Mom gets involved, Madam Lin won’t get anything good out of it. It’s definitely all settled now.”
Even when Su Wan fell asleep, she still had nightmares and was always uneasy.
Su Wan woke up several times in one night. As long as she thought of Fu Jie’s words, she would tremble and fall into a nightmare.
“It’s fake. It’s all fake. Nothing happened between me and Lin Yu!”
“Don’t force me. I won’t marry him!”
“My child is not a bastard!”
…
Jing Chen didn’t dare to sleep. He hugged Su Wan like he was coaxing a child and patted her back gently. “Wan wan, don’t be afraid. I’m here. She won’t do anything to you, and you don’t have to marry Lin Yu.”
It was not until late at night that Su Wan finally fell asleep. Jing Chen’s eyes were closed and his consciousness was gradually blurry, but his hands did not stop moving. He was still patting her gently.
The next day, Su Wan woke up to see Jing Chen lying beside her.
When she looked up, her forehead rubbed against Jing Chen’s chin and new stubble appeared, prickling her skin.
Seeing Jing Chen’s tired face, Su Wan’s heart ached a little, so she closed her eyes again and lay quietly on the bed, letting Jing Chen rest well.
But now, Su Wan’s mind was filled with Fu Jie’s words. The coldness spread from her feet to her heart like a nightmare.
Rays of sunlight shone in from the window. The birds that woke up early were chirping about something and were very happy. There was a sense of peace and harmony that slowly soothed the anxiety in Su Wan’s heart.
Su Wan kept staring out of the window in a daze.
She did not remember how long she lay there until she felt a gentle touch on her head.
“You’re awake so early. Why don’t you sleep a little longer?” In the morning, Jing Chen’s voice was magnetic and bewitching.
Su Wan shook her head. “I’m not sleeping anymore.”
“Jing Chen… Can I ask you a question?” Su Wan was still worried. What happened yesterday was like a nightmare that would not end.
Jing Chen seemed to have seen through Su Wan’s thoughts. He kissed her forehead and said gently, “Those videos have been destroyed. They won’t be leaked. They won’t comment about you, talk about me, or affect our child.”
