Chapter 506: Chapter 506, Lingering Love (10 more
Qin Yu returned to the side room and saw that Zhao Xiuya had woken up. He said softly, “Awake!”
“Hmm!” Zhao Xiuya responded with a hum.
“I just went to ask Miss Xie for some advice, and she gave me a few pointers!” Qin Yu spoke softly, carefully lying down beside Zhao Xiuya and taking her into his embrace.
He felt her stiffness and the slight trembling of her body.
Qin Yu was filled with self-reproach.
He truly had, without realizing it, lost the innocent, smiling girl he once knew.
The former Xiuya, with her hearty spirit, had married him and, after experiencing much, was forced to adapt to everything at Number One Manor.
She had given much for his sake.
This was something he had only e to a sudden realization about today, after Xie Zhinuan’s mention of it.
“Miss Xie is a woman of great wisdom. To receive her guidance is a fortune for both of us!” Zhao Xiuya said softly.
Gradually, she relaxed her body and mind.
This was her husband, with whom she intended to spend her life with—he would not harm her.
Zhao Xiuya thought back to when they were young, how Qin Yu liked to secretly hug her, liked to circle around her. She didn’t know when everything had changed.
“Xiuya!” Qin Yu called out gently.
“Hmm?”
“No matter if it’s the past or the future, my feelings for you have never changed. From the childhood sweethearts with nothing to hide, to the adolescent vows of a lifetime. The day I learned you were willing to marry me, I was so happy I couldn’t sleep for several nights. On our wedding day, I was apprehensive, afraid you’d change your mind, afraid you’d think I was a rough man, not as eloquent as your frail cousin, unable to speak sweetly to your heart!”
Qin Yu held the girl in his arms tightly.
“Back then, I thought, once I married you, I would treat you well, hold you in my palms, and cherish you dearly. But I, who should have loved you the most, ended up hurting you instead!”
“We should have been the closest people in the world!”
Qin Yu said, his voice already choked with emotion, “But from some point on, we stopped having tender conversations, talking only about children, about guilt… Xiuya, I’m sorry, I’ve wronged you!”
“I failed to shelter you from the wind and rain, instead making you suffer as you followed me around!”
His neck became moist with heat.
Zhao Xiuya was stunned for a long time before she softly began to cry.
Unlike the previous sadness, this time it was out of feeling wronged, her voice very soft and faint.
She held their child, Qin Yu held her. Qin Mao gently took her hand to his chest and held it tightly against him.
Zhao Xiuya thought, Xie Zhinuan was right, her husband did love her. With that knowledge, she really didn’t need to wallow in self-pity. Instead, she should make an effort to move past the pain and be more optimistic and cheerful.
And to let her husband and son see the change in her.
To revert back to the passionate and cheerful Zhao Xiuya she once was.
“I don’t blame you!” Zhao Xiuya said softly.
“I am also very grateful to have married you, to have given birth to Maomao. We will get better, we definitely will!”
Meeting Xie Zhinuan was a blessing for their family of three.
Being saved by the old master was also their good fortune.
Since they had both luck and blessings, why dwell on the past?
In the heartfelt exchange between husband and wife, Zhao Xiuya had e to see much more clearly. Under the silent care of her son and the love of her husband, she fell into a deep sleep.
Xie Zhinuan returned to her room, entered her space to practice boxing and swordplay, sweating profusely. She swam a few laps in the lake, drank several bowls of Spiritual Spring Water, and then left the space to sleep.
Her sleep quality was excellent; she would fall asleep as soon as she touched the bed.
But Li Hengyi at the Frontier wasn’t as fortunate.
Waking up from an amorous dream, his pants wet, to find the person he longed for not by his side…
