Chapter 628

~4 min read 738 words

For several days in a row, he stayed at the New Future Tutoring School during the day, carefully checking the study abroad textbooks and various counseling books. Whenever he encountered places that could be improved, he pointed them out, truly achieving the goal of checking for gaps and filling them.

And after dinner, he would take Zijin, who had returned from school, out for a stroll.

This time he didn't intend to go to Peking University, didn't intend to see Song Yu, but put all his energy into Zijin. For this woman who had followed him the earliest, for this woman who had given birth to his children the earliest in his previous life, he owed her in both his past and present lives.

And it was the kind that could never be fully repaid.

Sometimes he thought, if there were a next life, if she were not born into the Chen family in the next life, he would definitely have to marry her once, to achieve the same fairness as with Xiao Han and Song Yu.

Since the summer vacation of his second year of high school, he hadn't accompanied her so patiently for a long time, and Chen Zijin looked especially happy.

One evening, she lay on her back looking at the man on top of her and suddenly said emotionally, "Husband, I want to ask you something."

Li Heng blinked and said, "Such polite words don't sound like you, speak."

Chen Zijin said, "Recently I always love to overthink, I feel I don't have the same peace of mind as before. Have I matured?"

Li Heng reached out and pinched her, very satisfied, and said, "Haven't you matured long ago?"

Chen Zijin gave him a coquettish look, then fell into silence. During this time, she wanted to speak several times but stopped, but finally gathered her courage and said, "Husband, leave the first child to me, okay?"

Li Heng was stunned, staring at her fixedly, feeling inexplicably sour in his heart.

Chen Zijin didn't avoid him this time, looking at him infatuatedly, full of deep affection.

She understood that when she said this, it represented to a certain extent that she had withdrawn from the competition with Xiao Han and Song Yu.

After repeated thinking during this period, she understood even more that her mother had become her fatal weakness. For the past two years, he hadn't gone to the Chen family, and Uncle Jianguo and Auntie Tian hadn't taken the initiative to ask him to go to the Chen family either; in fact, many things were already self-evident.

Although Chen Zijin was very unwilling, she couldn't blame these things on her man and the Li family; she could only hate herself for not being able to choose her birth. Otherwise, having followed him through middle school, high school, and university, never leaving him, the current situation wouldn't have happened.

One wrong step, every step wrong!

She was very frustrated, but on the left was her own mother, and on the right was her man. She couldn't express her grievances, and in the end, she could only crush all her grievances and swallow them, bearing them alone.

During this period, she had repeatedly weighed it. He chose to go to Shanghai for the college entrance examination and didn't come to Beijing to accompany her, which proved that Xiao Han's attraction to him was very great; facing Xiao Han, she probably had no chance of winning.

And facing Song Yu, who was also in Beijing, she had even less power to compete. She considered her appearance and temperament to be top-tier, and she was the focus of the crowd wherever she went, but unfortunately, that was Song Yu.

How many women in this world could compare to Song Yu in beauty?

How many women in this world could compare to Song Yu in attraction to men?

Xiao Han in the south, Song Yu in the north, plus a Chen family that was holding her back, plus a Teacher Yu who was crushing her in all aspects, Chen Zijin suddenly felt so powerless and somewhat resigned.

In her previous life, Chen Zijin never admitted defeat and always wanted to compete with Xiao Han and Song Yu, that was because the Li Heng of her previous life was just an ordinary man. Even if the Chen family behind her was holding her back, it couldn't shake her determination.
