Chapter 431

Dong Ruolin felt the gentleness when Ye Chen wiped away her tears, and listened to his firm declaration of love for Xiao Churan, feeling extremely painful inside.

She said with a hoarse voice, "Ye Chen, if Churan really loves you, I will never do any disturbance, but you know that she is only with you because of her promise to her grandfather. Do you think it is meaningful for you to persist alone? Why not let yourself have a way out, and also let Churan have a way out?"

After saying this, she couldn't help but sob and asked him, "Where am I worse than Churan? You tell me, I will try to catch up with her, don't refuse so quickly, give me a chance, okay?"

Ye Chen stood up and shook his head, "Ruolin, sometimes you won't understand a man's mind. Churan has grace to me, just like you think I have grace to you. This point alone is enough for me to stay by her side. As for whether she loves me or not, I am not in a hurry to figure it out. I still have a long time to understand, explore, and even change her, just like you to me. Even if I tell you repeatedly that I am already married and have no interest in women other than Churan, don't you still confess to me?"

Dong Ruolin understood immediately.

In fact, Ye Chen's feeling for Xiao Churan is just like her feeling for Ye Chen.

Once said like this, she immediately realized.

However, after realizing, she also felt very uncomfortable in her heart.

Just like Ye Chen is unwilling to give up Xiao Churan no matter what, Dong Ruolin is also unwilling to give up Ye Chen no matter what.

Therefore, she wiped her eyes, looked at Ye Chen, and said stubbornly, "You are unwilling to give up Churan, and I am also unwilling to give up you. Since you can wait for Churan, then I can also wait for you! No matter how long it takes, I will wait!"

Ye Chen sighed, "Alright, since you have decided, I will respect your decision."

After saying this, Ye Chen looked at the time and said, "It's late, go back to your room and rest."

Dong Ruolin nodded lightly and said, "You go back first, I want to sit for a while."

Ye Chen responded and walked up the stairs.

After Ye Chen left, Dong Ruolin sat on the sofa, feeling mixed emotions in her heart.

There was grievance, unwillingness, bitterness, and infatuation. Various emotions surged into her mind, making her entangled.

Dong Ruolin felt that Ye Chen might be the only man she would love with all her heart in her life. If she couldn't be with him, she would never meet another man who made her heart beat like this.

Thinking that she might never get the man she loved most, she couldn't help but feel sad.

Is she destined to have no fate with Ye Chen in this life?

No, she doesn't believe it!

She believes that God sent Ye Chen to her side twice and let him save her from danger, so he will definitely not arrange a wordless ending.

He will definitely arrange a perfect ending for her, as long as she can persist with a sincere heart.

Persist, persist again, until victory!

When Ye Chen pushed the room door open gently, Xiao Churan was standing alone on the balcony on the second floor.

Her perfect figure looked hazy and enchanting in the moonlight, making Ye Chen's heart beat for a while.

Honestly, Xiao Churan is a foolishly filial girl, but it is precisely because of her foolishness that she has been insisting on not divorcing him.

She is foolishly filial to Ma Lan, and foolishly loyal to him.

Back then, not long after the two got married, Old Master Xiao passed away.

At that time, the whole Xiao family was persuading Xiao Churan to divorce him.

After all, the reason why Xiao Churan married him in the first place was because of the old master's order, and everyone else was against it.

So, everyone was hoping that she could divorce him and marry a rich young master from a big family to change the fate of the whole Xiao family.

However, she felt that since she married him, she would follow him, and as long as he didn't propose divorce to her, she would never divorce him. This is her loyalty to marriage, and her loyalty to her husband in law.

If Xiao Churan hadn't relied on this stubborn "foolishness," she would have listened to others and eaten well long ago.

In that case, what would his fate be?

Ye Chen didn't dare to think.

Before marrying Xiao Churan, his life was very bitter.

Because the orphanage didn't take in adults, on his eighteenth birthday, Auntie Li bought a birthday cake with her savings, celebrated his birthday, and sent him out of the orphanage with tears in her eyes.

At that moment, Ye Chen became lonely and helpless in this world again.

Auntie Li really wanted to help him, wanted to introduce him to work, and give him living subsidies, but he didn't have the face to take it.

He found a construction site by himself, and at eighteen, he started moving bricks, carrying sand, and carrying cement with others.

He couldn't bear to rent a house, so he always lived in the activity board room on the construction site, eating the cheapest food, doing the most tiring, heaviest, and dirtiest work.

He only kept a small part of the money he earned for living, and donated the rest to the orphanage.

Because there were many younger brothers and sisters in the orphanage who were as helpless and lonely as him. They were not yet adults and needed more care and love.

However, the orphanage had limited funds, which could guarantee them to be full and warm, but could not guarantee them to eat well, drink well, and wear well.

So, he spared no effort to donate the money he saved to improve the lives of his younger brothers and sisters, and even bought them textbooks so they could study well.

In the fourth year of working at the construction site, the construction team he was in was hired by the Xiao family to work on a project for the Xiao family.

At that time, Old Master Xiao, who came to inspect the construction site, saw at a glance that Ye Chen looked almost exactly the same as his grandfather when he was young.

And the reason why Old Master Xiao knew Ye Chen's grandfather was because the Xiao family had been servants of the Ye family a hundred years ago!

From the generation of his grandfather, the Xiao family fled to Yanjing because of the war, and when they were about to starve to death, it was the Ye family who took them in.

In order to repay the kindness, they voluntarily sold themselves to the Ye family and became lifelong long-term workers.

At that time, the Ye family was already one of the biggest families in the four-nine city, and the head of the family was kind-hearted, very good to the servants, allowed them to marry, allowed them to have children, and let them live and work in peace and contentment in the Ye family.

Old Master Xiao's father was born and raised in the Ye family.

Later, Old Master Xiao's father became an adult and also voluntarily sold himself to the Ye family to continue to work for the Ye family.

Later, Old Master Xiao was also born in the Ye family.

So, he grew up in the Ye family during his childhood and youth, and was also a servant in the Ye family.

The old master of the Ye family was about the same age as Old Master Xiao, and the two could be considered to have grown up together, of course, their status was vastly different, so Old Master Xiao knew him, but he didn't know Old Master Xiao.

Later, there was a war, and the Ye family also prepared to move out to avoid the war, but they couldn't take so many servants, so they gave most of the servants a generous settlement fee and dismissed them.

Old Master Xiao was the one who took the Ye family's settlement fee and returned to his hometown at that time.

So, when he saw Ye Chen, he firmly believed that he must be a descendant of the Ye family.

So after his repeated questioning, Ye Chen told his life story.

At that time, Old Master Xiao knelt on the ground directly and kowtowed three times to Ye Chen, saying it was to thank the Ye family for their kindness to the Xiao family back then.

Then, Old Master Xiao took him back to the Xiao family and insisted on marrying his eldest granddaughter Xiao Churan to him.

At that time, Old Master Xiao didn't know at all whether this young dragon, Ye Chen, could still have a chance to soar into the sky.

But he felt that a descendant of the dignified Ye family should not live a miserable life on a construction site.

As a servant of the Ye family for generations, the Xiao family had the responsibility and obligation to take good care of this young master of the Ye family who was wandering outside and give him a stable home!
