Chapter 225: Chapter 134: Do Not Give Up
“Husband, do you really want me to feel guilty for a lifetime, never finding peace? Let’s save this child together, shall we?” Su Wenyue, with strength she didn’t know she had, clutched Han Yu’s hand. Her gaze held a firmness never seen before, which made everyone present once again marvel at the greatness of motherhood. Before this, who could have imagined that such a delicate girl could come so far, now sharing Su Wenyue’s determination to save the child?
Even though Han Yu was deeply worried, he couldn’t help but be moved by Su Wenyue’s words, especially the line “guilty for a lifetime, never finding peace,” which shook him. Han Yu was very attentive; although his wife seemed carefree, he could always sense when she was troubled, keeping her worries hidden deep down. If they truly gave up on the child now, it wouldn’t just be his wife who would feel guilt, but he would as well.
“Okay, we will save our child together, but you have to promise me that you will be alright,” Han Yu said as he touched Su Wenyue’s slightly damp cheeks.
Seeing that Han Yu finally agreed, Su Wenyue revealed a surprisingly happy smile and nodded, “I will do my utmost.”
“Not your utmost, but you must,” Han Yu retorted. “Otherwise, if something happens to you, I won’t just stand by with the child. I’ll marry another woman, one even more beautiful and better than you. If you’re heartless enough to let the children suffer under a stepmother, then go ahead and ignore them. Otherwise, take care of yourself properly!”
Han Yu’s words were full of veiled threats, and Su Wenyue knew all too well that her husband’s word was final. At this moment, she was uncertain if he was serious or bluffing. She felt a mix of anger and sadness, knowing that Han Yu only wanted her to persist and not give up, her nose feeling somewhat sour.
“Don’t even dream of it. Our family is finally starting to live a good life; I won’t let another woman take my place. I’m waiting for you to climb the ranks and earn that imperial edict for me, to become a formidable Official’s Wife. If you dare to get involved with another woman, see if I’ll let you off the hook!” Su Wenyue said as she tried to reach for Han Yu’s ear, but her strength gave out halfway, her hand dropping limply, only to be caught by Han Yu.
“As long as you are fine, I won’t get involved with another woman. Otherwise, you won’t be able to do anything about it, and if your son gets kicked out and ends up begging on the street, I won’t care either,” said Han Yu, seemingly wanting to provoke Su Wenyue further.
Fully aware that Han Yu was doing this on purpose, Su Wenyue glared back, fuming, “Just you wait, don’t you even think about it!”
Strangely enough, this altercation didn’t deplete her energy; it seemed to revitalize her instead. Humans are such wondrous creatures with seemingly infinite potential. She had previously felt like she had used up all her strength.
“Good, I’ll wait. If you can hold on, I’ll allow you to have your way at home,” Han Yu finally smiled faintly, pleased to see Su Wenyue in such a state. With this, hopefully, she could safely give birth to the child.
