Transmigrated as Cannon Fodder — I Rise to Female Lead Through Hard Work Chapter 144: Destined Relationship

"Your dad didn’t co this ti. I have to go back tomorrow because your family received your letter and package. I was worried it might be sothing urgent, so I brought it to you," Li Hongying explained. "It was sent from Jing City."

Jing City? The first person Yi Roujing could think of was Yuan Xiangyu. After all, besides her, Yi didn’t know anyone else from Jing City.

Upon seeing the envelope and package’s mailing slip, Yi Roujing confird it was Yuan Xiangyu. She didn’t expect her to return to Jing City so soon, especially considering it takes significant ti for the package and letter to be delivered from there.

Yi Roujing began reading the letter, and in the words, she could see the liveliness of Yuan Xiangyu.

Dear Roujing: I returned to Jing City at the end of May. Heping and her baby are both healthy, so I’m relieved. Uncle and Aunt are doing well. They didn’t tell my family about my misdeeds, but I couldn’t bear it in my heart. I confessed and was definitely in for a beating, so it took a few days before I could write to you.

Yi Roujing smiled at this point; it was indeed consistent with Yuan Xiangyu’s character, which is why she liked the female second lead in the book so much.

Roujing, I sent you so specialties from Jing City. Rember the address on the envelope and mailing slip. I’m waiting for you to write to .

Roujing, let tell you, I t a good person, handso and gentlemanly. I was harassed on the train, and he solved it right away and chivalrously accompanied ho.

I didn’t expect my dad to know him. Roujing, I think I’m in love!

Then there was the girl’s expression of her pink mood. Yi Roujing’s eyebrows slightly furrowed while reading. She wondered if she had changed Yuan Xiangyu’s life. Now that Ding Ancheng is married, she surely wouldn’t fancy Ding Ancheng. So, who did she fancy?

Zhou Zeyuan is coming to the house for dinner tomorrow. According to Ding Ancheng, he was in the provincial capital before, so it definitely wasn’t him who protected Yuan Xiangyu on the train.

Having read Yuan Xiangyu’s letter, Yi Roujing was sowhat distracted during dinner, eating less than usual and drawing everyone’s attention.

"Did sothing happen?" Li Hongying asked with concern.

"It’s nothing," Yi Roujing shook her head. There was really no matter, still an unknown. Thinking about Zhou Zeyuan coming tomorrow, Yi Roujing hesitated whether to give a helping hand.

On the way back to the County First Middle School, Ding Ancheng walked slowly, holding Yi Roujing’s hand. The bicycle was left to Ding Anguo, who would be taking Li Hongying and Yi Weiliang to the station tomorrow.

"What’s wrong? After reading the letter, I noticed you didn’t eat more, and you haven’t even looked at the package." As the night grew quiet and dark, Ding Ancheng quietly inquired while holding Yi Roujing’s hand.

"Do you think if two people ant to be together aren’t, how disappointing it is?" Yi Roujing had a hint of suppression in her eyes. She was doubting herself, unsure if she was also like that with Ding Ancheng.

According to the timing in the book, Ding Ancheng should have already had his ancestral recognition, but now he’s still in Huaixi County. Will he also be unable to beco as excellent as in the book because of her influence? Yi Roujing felt lost.

"What kind of people are ant to be together?" Ding Ancheng stopped, placed his hands on her shoulders, and turned her to face him. Seeing Yi Roujing looking down, he sighed, lifted her chin, and bent down to look directly into her eyes.

"Those who could have had a perfect and happy later life, but due to others, the two didn’t et or missed each other. As a result, they end up with soone else, and their future changes, possibly becoming unhappy." After speaking, Yi Roujing slightly bit her lip.

This wasn’t the first ti Ding Ancheng heard Yi Roujing speak such ambiguous words. He thought she was worrying unnecessarily, but she seed to have believed it would be so. He sighed, pulling her into his arms but not daring to hold too long since they were outside. After the embrace, he wrapped her hands in his.

"If sothing between two people can be influenced by others, it indicates they aren’t truly suitable for each other."

"No..." Yi Roujing started to object.

"How can you be sure that missing or not eting doesn’t lead to finding soone better?" Ding Ancheng spoke softly, bending down closer.

"Let’s not discuss others, just us." Getting closer, their breaths mingled as he spoke. "I am happy to have married you, to beco a couple with you. I feel happy every mont."

Yi Roujing slowly lifted her head, her face still a bit bewildered, but there seed to be a light breaking through the clouds in her eyes.

"You said I might et soone better in the future, soone more outstanding or from a better family, but those don’t matter to . I only care about you. My eyes and heart are full of you. No matter how outstanding soone around is, it doesn’t matter because you’ve already filled my vision."

The light in Yi Roujing’s eyes brightened further, but soon it dimd again. "That’s because our marriage was a given. You had no choice, and after spending ti together, we found we could get along. My looks aren’t bad, so even if we beco like family over ti, we can still carry on."

Ding Ancheng didn’t know whether to laugh, cry, or be angry. "I made our marriage a given. If I didn’t want to marry you, no matter how you threatened, I wouldn’t have complied."

"You liked the old ." Yi Roujing felt a pang of loss, seeing herself as contradictory.

"No, I like the you now." Ding Ancheng looked straight at Yi Roujing, then pulled her back into an embrace. "During the three months after our marriage, although I wasn’t ho, I still knew what happened. Honestly, there was a gap between my expectations before marrying you and after, so I kept finding excuses through work travels."

"At that ti, I also thought if we truly weren’t suitable, we’d part ways."

He clearly felt Yi Roujing’s body freeze in his embrace.

"But after returning ho, I noticed you were different, though I couldn’t articulate exactly what. After all, I didn’t know you well before and only had a fragnted perception."

"Since I began understanding you, I couldn’t stop. I missed you at school and even when traveling. I didn’t have anyone before, so I didn’t know why at first. Later I understood — you’d captured my heart."

"That’s why I was angry when you ntioned divorce and when you said I might et soone better. I believe you’re the best."

The person in his arms gradually relaxed, and Ding Ancheng held her tighter.

"I’m not soone who likes to just get by in life; otherwise, I wouldn’t marry at this age. You probably know your husband’s charm, and many girls like , right?"

Yi Roujing laughed bitterly but felt sweetness inside.

"So, don’t doubt yourself, and don’t negate ."

Yi Roujing spoke with a hoarse voice, "Liking soone cos from knowing them. If it wasn’t you got to know today, but soone else remarkable, you’d probably like them too."

"But I t you first, and because of you, I’m captivated beyond escape. That shows we’re destined by fate."
