Chapter 421: Chapter 422: Critical illness (1)

“There won’t be anyone else. In the future, there won’t be any other women.”

Although Qin Zhiyou had made a similar assurance just before they went to sleep, this was the first time he had been so explicit about it.

He won’t be with any other women, so he will return to her only?

If this happened yesterday, no, to be precise, before Liu Yiyi came this afternoon, she would have felt joyous hearing this promise. But now, understanding the conditions attached to this promise – being forced by his grandfather, she suddenly felt nothing.

She scoffed, “It’s for the money, isn’t it?”

Qin Zhiyou touched his chin and nodded, “Yes, I can’t go out and find someone else because of the money. So I can only be with you now.” He said this, shaking his head, sighing with regret.

Lu Weixi scoffed, “You must really feel hard done by.”

“There’s no choice.” Qin Zhiyou lamented, then after a while, added, “Actually, it’s not just for the money.”

Lu Weixi laughed again, “It’s about your father too, isn’t it?”

“Also…”

At this point, Qin Zhiyou became focused, his peach blossom eyes fixed on her.

Lu Weixi noticed his gaze was deep and serene, like a mysterious well. She could even see her own reflection in his pupils.

He had occasionally looked at her like this, mostly when they were fighting or when he was flirtatious. It was rare for him to just sit and look at her like this, doing nothing else.

Before she had a chance to feel bashful, it was Qin Zhiyou who first averted his gaze and quickly got up from the bed, walking over to the small sofa. He pulled over a small blanket, laid down with his back to her, and said “Sleep, it’s late.” Lu Weixi didn’t expect him to turn away so quickly, she was a little surprised. But she didn’t say anything, just turned off the bedside lamp.

The room plunged back into darkness, Lu Weixi’s small hand clutched the quilt, her eyes wide open even though she couldn’t see anything, trying hard to remember.

Actually, when this whole episode unfolded today, she was truly physically and mentally exhausted and had considered divorcing him.

But surprisingly, after some events that occurred tonight, particularly Qin Zhiyou’s pledge that there would be no other women in his future,

Although his promise included two hard conditions: pressure from his grandfather and money, it was no longer as exciting for her. But, if this is indeed true…

Actually, from the beginning, her wish was to have Qin Zhiyou cut ties with his other women and return to their family. She didn’t want to be at odds with him anymore, she had considered settling down and having another child with him. But why, now that everything seems so near, is she having second thoughts?

He only agreed to be with her because Liu Yiyi had some leverage over him and because of the money.

Why can’t it be for another reason, like – her?

Although, that last look Qin Zhiyou gave her, it made her heart pound.

She should have been colder, but faced with his gaze, she couldn’t say those harsh words. Just like earlier when she saw him kneeling there, without food or drink, she went downstairs to heat up egg tarts and brewed milk tea – she never snacks at night. Although the egg tarts and milk tea ended up in her stomach, she didn’t prepare them for herself.

Lu Weixi didn’t know when she fell asleep. In her half-asleep state, she thought she heard soft whispers from him beside her, saying, “Good night..”
