Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1153: Chapter 1153: I Just Don’t Want You To Hate Me Chapter 1153: Chapter 1153: I Just Don’t Want You To Hate Me Ruan Tianling’s face grew pale as he realized that something was increasingly amiss.

They were in love, but now they were in a cold war over the past.

It was so not worth it…

“Yufei, let’s not talk about these things anymore, can we stop?” he said, his voice tense.

Jian Yufei spoke indifferently, “I haven’t brought it up; it was you who started talking about it.”

“I…” Ruan Tianling opened his mouth, at a loss for words.

Jian Yufei said nothing more and quickly went upstairs.

Back in the bedroom, she closed the door behind her, leaning against it weakly.

Striking him with those words hurt herself as well.

In truth, she wanted to tell him.

She had long stopped caring about the past life’s affairs; she didn’t blame him anymore.

But she couldn’t…

Jian Yufei’s chest ached with a dull pain; she didn’t wash up, just lay on the bed powerlessly, doing nothing, thinking nothing.

The night grew darker and deeper.

Ruan Tianling pushed the door and entered the bedroom, he saw Jian Yufei lying on her side on the bed, eyes closed, asleep.

He walked quietly to the bedside and sat down, lifting the quilt and crawling underneath.

Carefully lifting Jian Yufei’s head, he slid his arm under her neck; then he turned off the wall lamp.

After covering her with the quilt, he held her, his face against her shoulder.

Jian Yufei was actually not asleep, but she kept her eyes closed.

“Yufei…” Ruan Tianling started softly, “I won’t shirk responsibility, I just don’t want you to hate me…”

Jian Yufei’s eyelashes trembled, and she slowly opened her eyes.

She understood what he meant. When he said that it wasn’t him, he wasn’t making excuses to deflect responsibility, but rather he wanted her to understand.

This lifetime’s him had not hurt her in that way.

He did not want her to hate him…

Ruan Tianling’s eyes grew dim; he said nothing more and stayed holding her, breathing shallowly.

*****************

A night passed and in the morning Jian Yufei awoke to see a bouquet of champagne roses on the bedside table.

The roses were arranged in an intricately carved glass vase.

There were eleven in total…

Jian Yufei propped herself against the headboard, looking at the beautiful roses, feeling pleasant.

Ruan Tianling entered through the door and seeing her awake, casually smiled, “Good morning.”

“Good morning,” Jian Yufei replied with a small smile.

“Do you like them?”

He was referring to the roses.

Jian Yufei nodded, “I like them.”

Ruan Tianling came over and kissed her lips, “That day, I had planned to give you flowers but didn’t succeed. Today, I’m making it up to you.”

Remembering the scene when he fainted with blood streaming from his mouth, Jian Yufei felt her heart constrict.

“How are you feeling?” she couldn’t help but ask with concern.

The smile at the corner of Ruan Tianling’s lips deepened, “I’m fine, not a problem at all.”

Relieved, Jian Yufei nodded, “I’ll go and wash up.”

“I’ll help you,” Ruan Tianling offered, supporting her. Jian Yufei pulled her hand back.

“No need, I can do it.”

The man’s hand froze mid-air, he lowered his arms, his lips tightly set.

After washing up, Jian Yufei saw Ruan Tianling sitting on the couch, flipping through a magazine.

He stood up and approached her, “Let’s have breakfast and then head back to the old house.”

“Okay,” Jian Yufei nodded.

After breakfast, Ruan Tianling drove her to her parents’ place.

The elder members of the household were already waiting for them; this was their first meal together as a family since Ruan Tianling’s incident.

Jian Yufei kept a smiling face and played the part of a loving wife with Ruan Tianling, delighting everyone.
