Chapter 1442 - I Only Want You (2/2)

The old Mu Wansheng had already died.

She was just a walking zombie now.

She was hideous and revolting.

“Don’t worry, even if you become my wife, I’ll still respect you as I’ve been doing. I just think that it’s the only way for you to stay. Besides, I need a companion to chat with too.”

Mu Wansheng put on a lopsided smile and said, “Those were none of my concerns. I just think that my life has been ruined forever. If I had known that I would end up like this, I would have just allowed myself to die in the explosion. Worse still, I even lost my vision. Life has become so meaningless for me.”

“Why would it be meaningless? As long as you’re alive, you can still achieve your dreams. Once you’re dead, there’s nothing you can do anymore.”

“What’s your name?”

“Tang Yucheng.”

“Brother Tang, could you give me some time to consider? I know I’m in no position to consider, given the predicament I’m in now, but…”

“I’m not in a hurry for an answer. Just stay and think through this carefully. I actually just need a companion to talk to. My parents passed away a long time ago, and my younger brother has moved in with his wife’s family. I’ve been alone at home all this while. It’s too lonely to be all by myself. There’s no one for me to talk to either.”

Mu Wansheng expressed assent and said, “Thank you, Brother Tang. Thank you so much.”

“I read from the news that your name is Mu Wansheng. Is that so?”

“Yeah, it is.”

“It won’t be convenient for you to use that name while you’re staying here. Why don’t you change your name? Otherwise, I wouldn’t know how to introduce you to my brother and sister-in-law.”

“Brother Tang, what do you think my new name should be?”

“Happy.”

“What?”

“Your name should be ‘Happy.’ I hope you’ll always be happy from now on. How does that sound?”

Mu Wansheng teared up and said, “Great. My name shall be Happy from now on. Thank you, Brother Tang.”

“Don’t mention it. You must be famished. I’ll go make you some porridge. Wait for me.”

“Alright, thank you.”

Mu Wansheng heard the sounds of his footsteps fading. Although she could no longer see, her tears were still flowing out of her eyes uncontrollably, and she felt as if a million daggers were piercing through her heart.

Her hopes had all been dashed, and she felt nothing except misery.

Mu Wansheng used to hear from others that most men in the world were scumbags. However, she still believed that good men existed.

Despite having had an unpleasant experience with Zuo Xingwei, she still believed that other men were different from him.

For instance, Fan Shixin and Tang Yucheng.

Tang Yucheng was genuinely nice to her.

He would change her wound dressings and serve her meticulously every single day without fail.

Mu Wansheng did not have any airs around her at all, and she felt that it was rare that a man would be willing to take care of her despite all the hassle.

There were lots of couples who fail to support each other through tough times. They often allow their true colors to show during adverse situations.
