Rebirth Sweet Wife, Super Cute-Chapter 258: Illuminating His Dark World

"You’re awake!"

Bai Haoxue opened her eyes and saw Ji Hanyu, feeling very happy; he finally woke up.

"You’re happy because I’m awake?"

Ji Hanyu seemed a bit surprised. Her eyes were sparkling, like stars in the sky, filled with joy at his awakening.

He woke up, was she really this happy?

"Of course!"

Bai Haoxue turned over and jumped down from the hanging chair, but because she had curled up all night, her leg was numb, and her foot went soft.

She let out an "ah" sound, thinking she was about to fall on the ground disgracefully.

But the imagined embarrassment and pain didn’t come; she fell into a cool and refreshing embrace, and reflexively, Bai Haoxue put her arms around Ji Hanyu’s neck.

In an instant, their eyes met...

They both seemed a bit uneasy, especially Ji Hanyu, whose ears turned slightly red.

"Put me down!"

"Oh..."

Bai Haoxue gave Ji Hanyu a pat. He was staring at her like that, making her very uncomfortable.

Ji Hanyu put Bai Haoxue down, and his arms instantaneously became empty, causing his gaze to drop slightly.

"Your leg injury, the doctor said, still needs medication, or it will become inflamed."

"It won’t!"

Ji Hanyu confidently said, such a minor injury, to him, was insignificant.

"Why did you draw me?"

"Because you look good!"

...

The scene froze here.

Ji Hanyu left without even having breakfast.

What Bai Haoxue didn’t know was that when Ji Hanyu left, he took with him the sketch she drew of him.

That sketch didn’t mean much to Bai Haoxue, but to Ji Hanyu, the significance was something others could not understand or interpret in a lifetime.

And the first glance when she opened her eyes, it was the happiness, joy, and care for him awakening.

So genuine, so sincere!

Her eyes, as bright as the stars, were even brighter, even more beautiful, sparkling as they looked at him.

Illuminating his dark world.

Li Mingmo continued, "Ji Hanyu likes you, that’s why he took you; that’s his way of life, it is the only way he knows."

"As for him and me, I was captured and taken to that hellish place at the age of thirteen. Unfortunately, I was assigned to the same room as Ji Hanyu.

We stayed there for seven or eight years until we both worked together for a few years to finally escape from that hellish place and see the light of day again."

Speaking of it, his experience was quite similar to Ji Hanyu’s. After Ji Hanyu got out, he was saved by Bai Haoxue, and after that, he wouldn’t have anyone but her.

When I got out, I was also saved by a woman...

Indeed, they were kindred spirits in adversity, an unfortunate bond!

"When I first met Ji Hanyu, I thought he was mute, a handsome mute.

I talked to him every day, and not only did he not reply, but he also wouldn’t even look at me."

"I am the type who cares about face, so I secretly swore to myself that if he doesn’t speak to me first, I won’t speak to him either."

Bai Haoxue chuckled, "Then you must have lost terribly, with your face slapped hard."

Li Mingmo: "..."

"Exactly..." Li Mingmo couldn’t help but laugh as he spoke of it, "I tried to hold it in, even when I wanted to talk, I wouldn’t. Later, I couldn’t bear it anymore, so I told myself, what I promised was not to speak to him, not that I couldn’t talk to myself, so I started to mutter to myself in front of him."

Bai Haoxue: "...You’re quite shameless."

Li Mingmo, "Oh, you’re flattering me, but it’s just ordinary."

Bai Haoxue: "..."

"Let me tell you, I talked to myself for half a month, and Ji Hanyu didn’t say a word to me. Li Mingmo was genuinely amazed, and even now thinking about it, he was still in awe.

"So I just kept assuming he was mute until one day..."
