Chapter 20
Chapter 20 — I Actively Yield My Husband To The Benefactor Who Saved His Life
In your previous life, you spent your whole life being cold, and used a little guilt at the last minute to restore the relationship between me and you. In this life, within three years of losing his memories, he gave all his tenderness and favoritism to another woman. But now... After going through all that, he stood in front of me again, saying he wanted to start over.
“Bui Hanh Chi, I ask you something.”
“You say it.”
"If To Nhuoc Huyen didn't let you drink An Soul Grass, if you were in Truc Khe town after having To Nhuoc Huyen, you would recover your memories..."
“What will you choose?”
Bui Hanh Chi was silent.
“You will choose to come back to find me…”
"Or will you stay in Truc Khe and live with her for the rest of your life?"
He stood still, his lips slightly pale. We waited a long time. Finally he opened his mouth.
“I don't know.”
I burst out laughing. This answer... Completely identical to the previous life. In his previous life, after recovering his memories, he also said those three words. He didn't know who to choose. So he chose to hide. Escape to Buddha temple. Spend seven years chanting Buddhist scriptures to avoid this question.
“You see.”
“This is your answer.”
We take a step back.
"The feelings you have for To Nhuoc Huyen are not fake."
"The feelings you have for me are not fake."
“But from beginning to end, you still had no way to make a decisive choice.”
“Van Duong…”
“Bui Hanh Chi, but I have already made my choice.”
I reached out and closed the jade pendant in his hand and pushed it back to his chest.
“Thank you for remembering everything.”
“But those things…”
“I've given it up.”
Bui Hanh Chi's fingers clenched the jade pendant so tightly that his knuckles turned white. In the room, Lady Thai coughed softly. Only then did Bui Hanh Chi regain his composure and slowly lower his arm.
“So later…”
“What do you plan to do?”
"You don't need to worry about my business."
I turned around and went back in. Take two steps and stop.
"You keep the jade pendant."
“Later, leave it to your son.”
“It will need a token.”
Bui Hanh Chi stood in the yard for a long time without moving. The next day after Bui Hanh Chi left, father told me some news.
“On the other side of Suzhou, the Luc family sent a letter.”
“They want to invite you there to relax for a while.”
"It's my mother's loyal friend from the past."
“The young master of the Luc family is named Luc Thanh Ha.”
"Last year I refused people's marriage but they didn't mind."
“I also said that you are welcome to come to Suzhou as a guest at any time.”
I thought for a moment. Three days later, we departed south. The Thai lady saw me off to the city gate.
“Girl, it's good to go out and relieve your sadness.”
“The tattered things in this capital are not worth burying your whole life in.”
“Isn't your great-grandmother coming with you?”
The Thai lady snorted softly.
“I still have to stay in the capital to take care of this house for you.”
“Remember to write a letter when you get there.”
The carriage slowly left the city gate. The curved roofs of the citadel gradually recede behind. I lifted the car curtain and turned around to look back once more. Spring sunlight covers the city walls. The rows of willows under the citadel have sprouted green shoots. I let down the car curtain. Suzhou is a very beautiful place. The castle in the dusty rain. Minor flowing water. Luc Thanh Ha himself came to the city gate to welcome me. He is much calmer than I imagined. A long tree the color of moon white. Tall and long figure standing under a willow tree. When he saw my carriage approaching, he neither hurriedly nor slowly stepped forward.
“Miss Moc?”
“Six Young Master.”
He smiled softly.
“You can just call me Thanh Ha.”
"Your mother and my mother were originally close friends."
“It turns out…”
“We are not outsiders either.”
This person is completely different from Bui Hanh Chi. Bui Hanh Chi is like a fiery flame. When it's hot, it burns and hurts. When it gets cold, it makes people feel cold to the bone. And Luc Thanh Ha is like a cup of warm water. Not too hot. Not too cold either. Appropriate fit. The days in Suzhou were extremely peaceful. Luc Thanh Ha took me to see Thai Lake. Take us for a walk through ancient gardens. Take me to eat flower waffles in a deep alley. Luc Thanh Ha did not ask about my past. Don't ask about the Bui family. Not trying to please me either. It's just that every day he shows up at my door on time and asks a question.
“Where do you want to go today?”
One day, we sat on the shore of Tai Lake watching the sunset. He suddenly said something.
“Do you know?”
“My mother once said that the person she feels most sorry for in this life is her mother.”
