Chapter 1224: Chapter 1243 Unable to Achieve

People only knew how much Zhuanzhuan had hurt Jiang Yang, but they were ignorant of the family tragedy she had experienced in her past life. If she hadn’t been cautious this time, if Bei Jiang and Ying Jiuming hadn’t appeared in time, the same tragedy would have repeated itself.

All the resentment and incomprehension of over ten years was resolved in one night when she found out the truth.

She couldn’t.

She just couldn’t.

Huo Beijiang revealed a relieved smile, "Not bad, my wife!"

Although Nan Fei was complimented, she didn’t feel great, and kept her head down to continue eating.

Seeing that she was willing to eat and had a good appetite finally put Huo Beijiang at ease. He had feared that his wife might overthink things and become distressed.

"Either way, let’s get to the bottom of this!" What Nan Fei wanted to know most was why Zhuanzhuan would do such things. The Jiang family was just an ordinary farming family; they had nothing but parents who were honest and loved their children dearly. How could such a family have wronged her?

To drive her to commit such heinous acts?

The more Nan Fei thought, the deeper she delved. She even considered that her parents’ deaths in her past life might not have been solely due to being heartbroken over Jiang Yang. This idea made her shiver uncontrollably—if that was the case, it would be too horrible.

Too terrifying to imagine.

"Jiang Yang is downstairs! Do you want to see him? He’s really worried about you." Huo Beijiang handed her a tissue and took the opportunity to take her finished bowl to put it on the coffee table.

"Yes." Nan Fei said as she stood up to change clothes. When she opened the wardrobe, she noticed that he was still sitting idly on the sofa.

Nan Fei turned and asked, "Why aren’t you going out?"

Huo Beijiang found it amusing, "Why should I go out when my wife is changing clothes? Besides, don’t forget that it was me who changed your clothes just now!"

While he said this, having a pair of scorching eyes watching her as she changed was still very uncomfortable.

Nan Fei realized she just couldn’t handle him, feeling that ever since she fainted, Bei Jiang seemed to have changed.

"Forget it! I’ll change in the bathroom."

Taking out her home clothes, she was about to head to the bathroom when Huo Beijiang suddenly stood up. His tall and straight figure walked over to Nan Fei, casting a shadow that blocked half the light.

Suddenly, Huo Beijiang reached out and held her tightly in his arms. His large hands, with slight calluses, caressed her smooth back slowly, each touch comforting and conveying a thrilling sense of cherish.

"What’s wrong?" Nan Fei’s heart skipped a beat, "You’re acting strange?"

Huo Beijiang buried his face in the nape of Nan Fei’s neck and murmured, "Wife, we’ve already gotten our marriage certificate, there’s nothing to be bashful about now. But, let’s go back to my hometown and explain things to your parents, and have our wedding ceremony there first."

"Why are you bringing this up all of a sudden?"

"You heartless little thing, I’ve slept with you, and you dare to shirk the responsibility." Huo Beijiang, upon hearing her words, frustratedly pinched her at the waist, hitting a ticklish spot. Nan Fei couldn’t help but laugh uncontrollably in his arms, begging for mercy.

"Let go, it tickles, release me!" Nan Fei pleaded with a mix of laughter and tears while trying to wriggle free in his arms, but he held her even tighter, as if wanting to meld her into his own body.

"How dare I shirk my responsibility? Besides, you know very well who slept with who, don’t you?"

"Is it because you didn’t sleep with me?" Huo Beijiang pondered, then said: "Tonight, you can be on top." Mmm, just thinking about his wife taking the initiative stirred an impulse he could hardly control.

Huo Beijiang took a deep breath, forcing himself to dispel the enticing images from his mind.
