Chapter 357: Chapter 354
Wen Xian gently patted her little shoulder with one hand while tenderly wiping away her tears with the other, and whispered softly:
“Don’t be upset, he’s not worth it. Don’t worry, your sister-in-law will avenge you.”
Li Zaijun choked up, her eyes brimming with tears:
“Actually, I don’t want to be entangled with him anymore. I just feel so tired, I think love isn’t for me, and I don’t want to care so much about anyone anymore. Men are all big pigs’ trotters, they’re not worth it.”
Wen Xian’s heart trembled slightly.
Perhaps many girls think this way when their feelings are hurt.
But, not everything should be generalized.
She thought carefully and when she spoke again, she slowly said:
“Junjun, actually, the significance of every event we experience isn’t to define you but to guide you. You’ve suffered a setback, but you’ve also gained experience, so you won’t make the same mistake in future relationships.”
As she spoke, she paused, then continued:
“Once, I also couldn’t feel interested or passionate about anyone, until I met your brother. Even though my past experiences were also full of hardships, I still want to give all my love and passion to your brother.
Because I know, he’s worth it, and the misfortunes I encountered weren’t brought by him. He shouldn’t have to bear those, and I will still wholeheartedly offer him my true heart.”
The premise, he’s worth it.
And she had given her true heart.
If she had merely been playing with him, the two of them wouldn’t be where they are now.
Li Zaijun was somewhat bewildered.
She was inherently naive about relationships, although she felt her sister-in-law’s words were right, she still believed there were no good men in the world, perhaps except for her brother.
But, like a child, she was stubborn and unwilling to give her true heart to anyone again.
Wen Xian looked at her fair and delicate face, her soft fuzzy short hair, and her little nose reddened from crying, and her heart was filled with compassion. She did not refuse her dependence and gently patted her to sleep.
Li Zaijun snuggled in her arms and suddenly touched her, her eyes still red, and enviously muttered:
“Sister-in-law, you’re really the real deal. No wonder my brother, that iceberg, is captivated by you.”
Wen Xian was caught off guard by her sudden move and hearing her say that.
However, her little cousin was joking; back then, she had been scolded out of his room when she tried to enter in the middle of the night.
Although, well, he did like it afterward.
But that was based fundamentally on her as a person.
“Don’t overthink it. The person who truly loves you will love you no matter what, and besides, you’re not bad yourself,” Wen Xian said, glancing at her.
Li Zaijun instantly pulled her neckline inward to check, then couldn’t help but cry again:
“I’m just a little steamed bun.”
Wen Xian couldn’t help but laugh and cry, urging her to get some sleep.
Li Zaijun had silently cried for a while and felt much better; now, she felt sleepy too and snuggled into Wen Xian’s arms to sleep.
Wen Xian glanced at the clock on the bedside table — 11:30 PM.
She was also somewhat sleepy but didn’t dare to fall asleep for fear that she would only wake up when it was already daylight.
Then, it would be her turn to cry.
With worries in her heart, she slept fitfully, and time slowly passed.
After an unknown duration, she didn’t know what she dreamed about, mumbling between her lips, and suddenly awoke from her sleep.
Her eyes opened abruptly—
