Grandpa Ye was indirectly referring to the people who looked down on Ye Qiao for being an illegitimate daughter. He was warning his future grandson-in-law!
“Grandpa, don’t worry about this matter. Nothing can stop me from being with Ye Qiao!” He said firmly.
The old man nodded.
“Grandpa, I’m worried about Ye Qiao. Can I go up to check on her?” While speaking, he had already stood up and put out his cigarette.
Naturally, Grandpa Ye said yes!
***
Was she moved because of his words?
Not entirely.
It was mainly because he said the same thing to Grandpa Ye in their previous life before getting married! Especially the sentence – “As long as I’m still alive, I will never let anyone bully her!”
In her previous life, if he did not die, he would never let his precious wife get framed and suffer in jail for seven years!
In her previous life, just because she was his wife, Qin Lan and her daughter never dared to bully her!
Her tears streamed down because she was moved, and also because she had regrets.
Suddenly, someone knocked on her door. She wiped her tears away, but new tears streamed down immediately. She looked down on the floor as she opened the door.
His unique scent overwhelmed her once the door was opened. She threw herself into his arms without even looking up.
“Silly girl, are you so afraid that I will punish you?” He joked as he caressed her hair. What was there to be touched about, anyway? Was it not natural for him to protect her with his life?
She did not speak and just kept crying; her hands were holding on to his wide back tightly.
“You’re still crying! Did I scare you? If I did, I’m sorry!” Although she made him jealous, he did not want to see her cry.
Perhaps, he should have been more careful.
“No! Brother Xiao… I love you! I really love you so much! My main purpose in this lifetime is to love you!” Ye Qiao cried, thinking of how she was not even able to see him before he sacrificed his life in their previous lives. She only saw his will moments before her death, and the thought of it gnawed at her heart…
Ye Qiao’s sudden confession surprised Lu Beixiao.
Somewhere deep in his heart, he was moved.
He pulled her away from his embrace and held her shoulders firmly while looking deep into her eyes. “You’re wrong! Your biggest purpose is to be loved by me! There’s nothing to cry about! Stop crying now; otherwise, I will make a fuss!”
He joked and wiped away her tears. However, more tears kept coming out. Unfortunately, he would never know her bitter secret.
Hearing his words, she cried even more. She laughed bitterly in her heart as she recalled what he wrote in his will – “I will continue loving you in our next life!”
And he did!
It took a long time for her to stop crying.
Worried that Grandpa Ye would be unhappy if he stayed too late, Beixiao had no choice but to leave. Before he left, Ye Qiao pulled him back and kissed him before letting him go.
“Ye Qiao, as long as you love daddy and keep him happy, he won’t die!” Lu Xiaogun said once Ye Qiao sat down on her bed.
In short, Lu Beixiao died because of her.
Lu Xiaogun’s words hit Ye Qiao hard.
Lu Beixiao was so strong, so she never understood how he could have died. She never thought it was because of her!
