Chapter 1734: Chapter 1734: Try to Accept Him
Nangong Ruyue smiled slightly, signaling her not to worry too much.
[I agreed to hold a wedding with him and try to accept him, then he will let you and Ansel go. Don’t overthink it, it’s really nothing.]
Sure enough, Nangong Xu used them to threaten their mother.
“Mom, why did you agree to him? Don’t compromise yourself for us!”
Nangong Ruyue shook her head: [It’s not really compromising.]
Jian Yufei was stunned, very confused: “What do you mean?”
[Yufei, he and I are married, and his request is not excessive. I am his wife, and I should accept him. For so many years, he has sacrificed a lot for me. I believe that people have hearts, and I have decided to give us a chance.]
Jian Yufei widened her eyes in disbelief.
What did her mother just say?!
“Mom, you actually…”
Nangong Ruyue lowered her eyes and dared not meet her gaze, [Yufei, I know you can’t accept my thoughts. For so many years, I couldn’t accept it either, but I can’t escape anymore. If I continue to avoid it, it will harm both me and you. So, I plan to let go of everything and try to accept him, so everyone can be happy.]
Jian Yufei’s face turned slightly pale, and she grabbed Nangong Ruyue’s hand.
“Mom! You’re lying to me, you don’t really like him. You’re saying this to make me feel less guilty, aren’t you?!”
Nangong Ruyue shook her head.
[Yufei, you are not me, you don’t know what’s in my heart. From the moment I was born, I have known Nangong Xu. In your eyes, he is a bad person, but in mine, he is also family. Yufei, I just want a different way of living, and it allows everyone to live well; I think it’s worth it.]
“Do you really like him?”
[I don’t know, but I am moved by him.] Nangong Ruyue’s expression was particularly earnest.
Jian Yufei let go of her hand, still finding it hard to accept this reality.
Her mother’s sudden change in attitude made her feel like all her persistence and beliefs were shattered.
It wasn’t the most important thing, the important thing was, she never thought her mother would like Nangong Xu.
How could she like Nangong Xu?
Wasn’t the person she liked her father?
Jian Yufei always thought her parents had a deep relationship, now her mother told her she wanted to try accepting another man; she really couldn’t accept it.
“Mom, I don’t believe you! You’re lying to me, Mom, we don’t need you to sacrifice yourself to protect us!”
[I’m really not.]
Just as Nangong Ruyue finished speaking, Nangong Xu returned.
“Ruyue, have you finished measuring?” The tall man approached, asking gently with a smile.
Nangong Ruyue nodded, [It’s already measured.]
Nangong Xu suddenly stepped forward and removed a speck of lint from her hair.
His actions were gentle, the affection in his eyes was not feigned.
Nangong Ruyue smiled lightly at him, causing Nangong Xu to be momentarily dazed, then he smiled even more tenderly.
“Next, I’ll have some jewelry sent over, if you can’t decide alone, you can ask Yufei to help.”
[Alright, I have some things to discuss with Yufei, you go handle your affairs.]
Nangong Xu nodded, “Then you two chat, call me if you need anything.”
After speaking, he headed upstairs.
Jian Yufei’s expression was not good.
Just now, the interaction between her mother and Nangong Xu did not look like an act.
Nangong Xu likes her mother, and her mother is not indifferent to him.
