Chapter 1413: Chapter 1440: Accumulated Disappointment 8
Lu Xingshen still found Jiang Tian, who was obedient and humble to him, the most pleasing. He didn’t like the way she spoke with thorns.
"I’m sorry, I overreacted."
Jiang Tian’s eyes were bright and shiny as she suddenly bowed to the man,
"I’m very sorry, Mr. Lu. I won’t bother you again in the future. I’ll cooperate with your act so that Mom won’t notice, and I definitely won’t cause you any trouble.
I won’t casually care about your every move anymore. I’ll raise Zhouzhou myself and be ready for your arrangements. When unnecessary, I won’t contact you at all."
Lu Xingshen was taken aback, his face a bit grim, "Jiang Tian, what trick are you playing again?"
Jiang Tian didn’t look at him, picked up Lu Zhou, and said softly, "Whether you believe it or not, I will prove it with time. Mr. Lu, I wish you good health."
That’s it.
She liked him, but she couldn’t leave him.
But she also couldn’t make him like her.
So, in order not to make both of them miserable, she decided to try not to like him as much as possible.
After all, she had only just started liking him. As long as she restrained herself a bit, she would surely stop liking him soon.
In a few years, when Zhouzhou grew up, she could leave him gracefully and just visit Zhouzhou every month.
She and Mr. Lu were just a wrong and ill-fated relationship.
She turned around and left without hesitation, showing a bit of decisiveness.
That was not the courage of a cowardly woman.
She was growing and transforming.
This was clearly what Lu Xingshen should have expected. He hated Jiang Tian’s intrusion, messing up his life plans and depriving him of any chance to turn back.
So he hated her, even resented her, couldn’t help but speak harshly to her, hoping she would never appear in front of him again.
But when this moment really came, he found that he wasn’t as happy as he imagined.
He didn’t know how to describe his current feelings, always feeling a heavy blockage on his heart, like being pressed under a mountain, making it difficult to breathe.
This feeling was as strong as when he saw Shi Nuan rush into the fire without hesitation back then.
What on earth was wrong with him?
Just as he was thinking, the phone rang, and Liu Qian’s angry voice came through,
"Lu Xingshen, why haven’t you gone home to accompany Tiantian and Zhouzhou for the past two months?"
Lu Xingshen’s Adam’s apple moved, "What, Jiang Tian again told you..."
Halfway through his words, he remembered that Jiang Tian had just left. How could she have had the time to complain?
Liu Qian, on a touring performance, had no way to contact the outside world and could only find time after each performance ended.
Judging by her tone, she must have just found out as well.
"What did Tiantian tell me again? Do you think she’s so obedient that she’ll tell me you bullied her?" Liu Qian was even more furious,
"It was the same last time. If I hadn’t been cautious and asked Aunt Zhang to keep an eye on things, I wouldn’t have known that as soon as I left, you would turn the world upside down!"
Lu Xingshen’s mouth stiffened slightly. It turned out that last time, it wasn’t Jiang Tian who complained, yet he mistakenly blamed her for more than half a year, always sneering at her.
★
Jiang Tian was determined not to disturb Lu Xingshen anymore.
Once she returned to the other courtyard, she focused on her studies during the day and dedicated herself to raising her son in the evening.
Occasionally, she made phone calls with family or dealt with Liu Qian’s inquiries, deliberately avoiding thinking about him, and her days were particularly fulfilling.
Of course, if ignoring the increasingly rampant rumors at school, Jiang Tian might have lived even happier.
