Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 444: Chapter 444 Marry Me, Let’s Start Over _1

Ruan Tianling didn’t get angry; instead he laughed and admitted. “Yes, I am a bastard.”

“Beast!”

“Yes, I am a beast.”

“Cold-blooded animal!”

“Yes, I am cold-blooded.”

“Shameless!” Jian Yufei was angry to the point her face became red. She was angry, but at least she was expressive, no longer looking as lifeless as before.

The smile on Ruan Tianling’s face widened. “I’ve always been shameless.”

Jian Yufei detected his deliberate attempt to provoke her, so her anger quickly deflated. She closed her eyes and her mood sunk again, growing pessimistic.

Ruan Tianling wiped the smile off his face, placed her hand under the blanket, and sat down beside her.

“Yufei, I’m really sorry about the child.” He suddenly apologized, his tone heavy. “We will have many more children in the future, trust me.”

Jian Yufei opened her eyes. Her eyes were devoid of any ripple of emotion.

“Ruan Tianling, it’s better that this child is gone.”

“…”

“I’ve always wanted to get rid of you. Now that the child is gone, there’s nothing linking us anymore.”

Ruan Tianling stared at her blankly, asking in a heavy voice: “Is that what you really think?”

“Yes. I couldn’t bring myself to abort the child before, but now that he’s gone, even though I’m upset, I also feel relieved.”

As Jian Yufei gazed at him, she said coldly word by word, “Because finally, I can be free of you. I won’t have to face you anymore!”

Ruan Tianling’s heart tightened. His gaze was dark and brooding, his eyes revealing barely concealed anger and pain.

“Jian Yufei, I offer you a future. Will you let me take care of you for the rest of our lives?” He suddenly pulled a jewelry box out of his pocket and opened it before her.

There was a glittering diamond ring inside the box.

The ring was very exquisite and somehow familiar.

Ruan Tianling said seriously: “Do you remember this ring? The day you went to pick out an engagement ring with Xiao Lang, you were instantly drawn to it. But you didn’t choose it.”

Jian Yufei remembered, but so what? She may have liked this ring then, but it doesn’t mean she’ll like it now.

Ruan Tianling continued: “I noticed your look at the time, and on impulse, I bought it. After buying it, I regretted it — it was a ring you liked, so why did I buy it? I wanted to throw it away, but I couldn’t bear to, so I kept it in the drawer of my desk…”

“…only recently did I start to take it out and look at it often. I always carried it with me, hoping that one day I could propose to you with this ring.

Yufei, now I understand, even before our divorce, you had already nested in my heart. That’s why I was unwilling to let you be with Xiao Lang and why I bought the ring you liked.

I guess back then, I subconsciously hoped that one day I could propose to you with this ring.”

Jian Yufei’s eyes were half-closed, her gaze completely steady.

Ruan Tianling’s words were sincere and heartfelt, but her heart was already dead.

“Yufei, marry me. Let’s start over. Will you let me take care of you for the rest of our lives?” Ruan Tianling picked up the ring, held her hand, intending to slip the ring onto her finger.

However, Jian Yufei firmly clenched her fist, rejecting his proposal.

“Ruan Tianling, do you remember what I told you in the car?”

[If the child is saved, I will remarry you.]

That’s what she said back then, but even at that moment, Ruan Tianling knew the chances of the child being saved were slim.
