Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 270: How Should He Completely Let Go_1

The dinner table, originally lively, suddenly became quiet after the departure of two of the most important people.

With Ruan Tianling gone, Yan Yue couldn’t bring herself to eat.

Ruan’s mother served her a dish, and said with a smile, “Yueyue, eat more, don’t be shy.”

“Thank you, auntie.” Yan Yue curved her lips into a smile.

Ruan Tianling standing on the balcony of his study, lit a cigarette. His hands were braced against the railing, the cigarette between his fingers, but he didn’t inhale.

He was in a quandary.

He knew he loves Yan Yue, yet he couldn’t bear to watch Jian Yufei marrying another man.

Before getting divorced, he never felt such reluctance or tenderness, his only thought then was to divorce Jian Yufei and marry Yan Yue.

After actually getting divorced, he couldn’t help but pay attention to her, noticing everything about her, even going so far as to try sabotaging her relationship with Xiao Lang.

Now, he was getting engaged to Yan Yue, and Yufei was getting engaged to Xiao Lang. He should let her go, completely forget about her, and live happily with Yan Yue.

But, who could tell him how to truly let go?

Ruan Tianling was agitated and conflicted, his hands on the balcony railing, clasping and unclasping, never able to work up the courage to let go.

“Tianling.” Yan Yue walked into his study and came up behind him.

The man was jolted awake, the cigarette between his fingers almost burnt down to the stub, ready to scorch his fingers.

He swiftly discarded the cigarette and turned around, “Let’s go, I’ll take you home.”

Yan Yue suddenly rushed into his arms, “Tianling, do you not want to marry me?”

Ruan Tianling was taken aback. He stroked her back, asked with some amusement, “Why would you think that?”

“Tianling, I know you love me. But I feel…you haven’t forgotten Jian Yufei. Do you love her, Tianling? If you do, I can back out. But if you don’t love her, can you forget about her? She has her happiness, and we have our happiness. Wouldn’t that be good?”

The man’s gaze deepened.

Does he love Jian Yufei?

Of course, he didn’t. The one he loved was Yan Yue; he just didn’t want his woman to be with another man.

But Yan Yue was correct, he should forget about her if he doesn’t love her, they each have their happiness. He will ruin the happiness between him and Yan Yue if he continues this way.

“Tianling, I understand that you can’t forget her right away. I can wait, until the day you truly forget her, then we can get engaged.” Yan Yue lifted her head, speaking gently and considerately.

Ruan Tianling’s throat tightened, his gaze darkened.

Yan Yue anxiously observed him, very much afraid that he would choose Jian Yufei over her.

Her hand clutched tightly in secret, slightly regretting what she had just said. But if she didn’t push him, when would he be willing to forget Jian Yufei?

Ruan Tianling suddenly softened his expression and smiled, “Silly girl, the engagement is already arranged, how could we postpone it. I do not love Jian Yufei, stop overthinking.”

“Tianling.” Yan Yue’s eyes suddenly welled up, she wrapped her arms around his neck, tiptoeing up and kissing his lips.

Ruan Tianling tightened his arm around her waist, picked her up and walked into the study. The two collapsed into the soft sofa…

At two in the afternoon, the door to the ‘Wanderer’ French Restaurant was pushed open.

There were no customers in the restaurant at this time.

“Welcome…grandpa!”
