YM778.TV Chapter 357: 357: She Has Fallen In
“I remember you are already with Meng Ziqi. I saw you having lunch together with Jin Lan…”
“That’s because she invited my mom and my mom invited me along.”
“But the media…”
“You should know better than me that the media likes to make a mountain out of a molehill.”
“…”
With every point Qin Youxuan made, Jin Chenye would retort even faster.
After several attempts, Qin Youxuan just lowered her gaze and fell silent.
She was at a loss for words.
She had seen Jin Chenye’s stubbornness more than anyone else.
“You should understand why I did not agree for you to continue staying in the Qin family and to be their daughter. Youxuan, we’ve already missed one opportunity. The time has come for us to put right what has gone wrong.”
“…”
Jin Chenye reached out and grabbed Qin Youxuan’s shoulders, his fingers rigidly clenching. “This is another chance from heaven. This time, I will not let go of your hand!”
“Jin Chenye, let go first.”
“I won’t let go!”
“I’m married!” Qin Youxuan struggled but couldn’t break free, furious, she yelled.
Noticing that he was startled, she quickly shook off his hand and retreated back.
Facing his deep gaze, the painful light in his eyes, Qin Youxuan’s chest was heaving violently as she retreated, overwhelmed with fear.
Biting her lip, “I’m married, do you still want a married woman?”
“What if I don’t mind?”
Jin Chenye’s gaze flickered, full of hope, and almost pleadingly humble, “I only want you. If you don’t want to talk about your relations with him, I won’t ask. As long as you come back to me, it’s enough.”
“…”
Youxuan, don’t forget what Dan Hanjie’s status is. With your background, even as Miss Qin, the Dan family will not accept you, let alone now! You can’t possibly gain approval from Dan’s family, otherwise, Dan Hanjie would not have kept your marriage a secret until now. Staying with him, there will be no good outcome for the both of you.”
“…I know.”
The light in Qin Youxuan’s eyes flickered, her hands clenched tightly.
Her throat suddenly felt uncomfortable and she didn’t want to speak.
Everyone could see the truth, but she had to pretend not to know.
At first, it was just a forced transaction, but when it got to this point, she could no longer discern how much sincerity was involved.
“I’m sorry,” Qin Youxuan whispered.
“If it’s just for my sake, then even if I beg you, I really need the title of Miss Qin. Can you help me this time?”
She didn’t mind bearing the stigma of being an illegitimate daughter, but she couldn’t bear to see her mother be ridiculed even after her death.
Thinking of the insults online, Qin Youxuan felt as if her heart was being torn apart.
Her mother wasn’t the kind of person they claimed she was, really…
If it weren’t for her decision to keep Youxuan, her mother wouldn’t have had to bear so much. As a daughter, the least she could do was to safeguard the last shred of dignity for the deceased.
“Are you begging me? Haha…”
Jin Chenye suddenly shuddered, an expression of disbelief and resentment crossing his handsome face.
She was begging him to become her brother in order to marry him. This was not what Jin Chenye had expected at all.
Lines of tension formed on his forehead, his hands tightly clenched until they were making crackling noises.
“Do you know what it means if I agree?” Jin Chenye bit his teeth, forcing himself to remain calm, but beads of sweat were trickling down from his forehead.
“…”
Qin Youxuan bit her lip, not daring to meet his hurt eyes.
