SIAS Chapter 209.1

Inside the room, Yi Qingqing had carefully cleaned Chen Ruru’s wound, applied medicine, and wrapped it with gauze.

She also carefully reminded her, “Don’t get this hand wet for now. Be careful. If it gets infected, it will be very serious. I’ll change the dressing for you tomorrow.”

At this time, Li Mengxue came in angrily.

When she saw Chen Ruru, she couldn’t help but throw herself into the arms of her sisters and cry loudly.

She didn’t know why she was crying. Maybe it was because of her own messy feelings, maybe because she suddenly saw the unbearable flaws of her lover, or maybe it was because of this girl who didn’t know how to cry out in pain after being injured.

“What’s wrong? Why are you crying again?”

“Woo~ I’m so pitiful. I’ve encountered all kinds of bad things!” Li Mengxue cried out of breath.

“I can’t hate my love rival. Instead, I feel that my boyfriend has become unrecognizable to me. How can Xiaolong be such a person? So careless and irresponsible, woo, woo…”

Chen Ruru poked at the beautiful bow tied with gauze on her hand and suddenly said, “He is just like that. A big boy who has been spoiled by his parents since he was a child and has never had to worry about anything. He never cares about others. The first person he cares about like this should be you…”

“You are indeed a good person and deserve to be loved, but I have no choice. I can’t give him to you. I’m sorry…” Chen Ruru said with her head lowered.

Li Mengxue sobbed and said, “Of course, I know I’m good, but you’re not bad either. Why don’t you treat yourself better? What’s good about a man who doesn’t care about you?”

“I’m not good, I’m not good at all. This engagement was exchanged for my father’s life. Uncle and Aunt also like me and take care of me because of this engagement. My mother is even more… Without this engagement, no one will like me. I can’t give up. I must marry him. I’m really sorry.”

Perhaps because she felt the kindness of Li Mengxue and the others, Chen Ruru’s tone of voice rarely fluctuated. She was no longer as indifferent and calm as before.

“Did your mother cause the injuries on your body?” Qian Lailai keenly caught the pause in her tone.

“It’s my fault. I can’t even keep the engagement that my father exchanged for his life. Mom didn’t mean it.” Chen Ruru shook her head quickly.

“…”

Li Mengxue forgot to cry.

“Chen Ruru, you are not stupid! What’s the point of exchanging your father’s life-saving grace for a man who doesn’t care about you? If it were me, I would exchange it for a large sum of money and live a good life. Wouldn’t that be good? If your father were still alive, he wouldn’t want to see his daughter living a life of grievance and injury, right?”

“I don’t know! I don’t know!” Chen Ruru shook her head violently.

Can she really do this?

No, her mother won’t agree. Her mother will only be happy if she marries Brother Zheng.

Yi Qingqing didn’t say anything the whole time, but just looked carefully at the description in the golden book, trying to figure out the crux of the problem through Chen Ruru’s psychological activities. Now she finally saw it.

Yi Qingqing held her in his arms, gently stretched her back, comforted her, and waited until her emotions calmed down before saying.

“A mother who deserves her children’s filial piety and protection will not abuse her children like this, let alone force her child to marry someone who doesn’t like her at all. Sometimes, when others don’t love us, we should love ourselves more. Now this place is 108,000 miles away from Haishi, and your mother is not here. You don’t have to be afraid. Think carefully. Do you really like Zheng Xiaolong and want to marry him?”

“I… I don’t… I don’t know.”

Chen Ruru didn’t like him deep in her heart. Everything was just because of the heavy engagement that she dared not disobey.

She just envied these girls. It would be great if she could become like them.
