Hu Wan’s mother kept talking, and Chen Chen only listened silently. In the end, he retorted, “I know I’m the one who has let her down, but over the past ten years, I’ve already tried my best to make it up to her. Over the past ten years, I’ve never done anything with anyone. She’s the only one in my eyes.”
“In that case, why are you still afraid of this last step?” Hu Wan’s mother’s expression was filled with pleading. “To Hu Wan, you’re her lifeblood. You’ve been her life since she was young. Even when we asked her in the hospital who caused her to become like this in the end, she did not say a word. She only said that she had accidentally fallen into the water, afraid that we, as her parents, would look for trouble with a child like you. On account of her feelings, can’t you give her one or two months of happiness?”
Hu Wan’s mother became more and more agitated as she spoke. Actually, Chen Chen was also very touched. His compassion and guilt still erupted. After all, she was telling the truth.
“Auntie, I understand. I’ll fulfill my promise.” Chen Chen suppressed his deepest feelings in the end.
After getting a satisfactory answer, Hu Wan’s mother finally left, leaving Chen Chen alone on the sofa hugging his head in pain.
In the next few days, Chen Chen was thinking about Hu Wan with all his might on other matters. However, when it came to Bai Ran, Chen Chen still lost control a few times, including when he saw the news today.
However, at this moment, when Grandma announced that she wanted to make the news public, Chen Chen still hesitated.
Once this news was made public, Hu Wan would immediately be treated as a mistress. She definitely could not stand it.
No matter what, he still hoped to protect Hu Wan until the end of her life.
“Chen Chen, why haven’t you said anything? You wanted to announce it last time.” Grandma looked at Chen Chen. He was actually still in a daze!
“Can you be more careful? Bai Ran’s reputation is being damaged now. Don’t you care what others say about your wife?” Grandma shouted sternly.
“Grandma, that’s not what I meant. I just…” Chen Chen looked troubled.
“Grandma, don’t force him. I didn’t want to make it public either.” Bai Ran came out to smooth things over.
“Are you still thinking about that little vixen from the Hu family?! What on earth does she have…” Grandma said in exasperation. At this moment, Grandma’s phone rang.
“Hello, Xiao Lin. Why are you calling?” Grandma picked up the phone and turned on the speaker. She asked curiously.
Xiao Lin?
Bai Ran and Chen Chen looked at each other.
Speaking of this Xiao Lin, her real name was Chen Lin. She was Chen Chen’s biological sister, but she was very mysterious. She was overseas all year round, and even Bai Ran, who was a family friend, rarely saw her.
“Grandma, how can Huo Tian hug my sister-in-law?! I don’t want to live anymore!” Chen Lin shouted excitedly on the other end of the line.
This earth-shattering sentence exploded in Bai Ran’s heart.
Chen Chen and Huo Tian? What was going on?
However, in an instant, Bai Ran thought through something. Back then, Huo Tian had easily known that she and Chen Chen were already married. It was probably not because of his so-called information network, but because of Chen Lin.
“Why are you still thinking about Huo Tian? You didn’t mention him for so long. I thought that you and he had already turned over a new leaf! Why? Can’t you take it anymore after reading the news today?”
Grandma’s voice turned cold. She only hated her granddaughter’s taste in men. Why did she choose a man who was already married?
“Grandma, but I just like him. I can’t stand anyone else in my eyes!” Chen Lin’s voice became stronger and stronger on the other end of the line.
“Grandma, how could he hug my sister-in-law?! How could he?! Where did my brother go?! Is he a slacker?! Why does he think highly of her?! Isn’t he angry at her for being intimate with other men like this?! They’ve already been exposed once! Why isn’t he more vigilant in the future?!”
Chen Chen looked a little awkward.. It did not feel good to be scolded in front of her.
