Beg Me to Remarry
Chapter 665 - 666: The Long Time

Chapter 665: Chapter 666: The Long Time

Waiting was the hardest part, Bai Wei even felt that each second felt as long as a year.

She didn’t know how much time had passed when Luo Qinghe’s voice finally came through, "Bai Wei, the question you posed is indeed difficult for me to answer. All I can tell you is that I truly like you and I do want to marry you; as for Nan Qing, I still treat her as a friend, and I will still help her when she is in trouble, that’s all there is to it."

Bai Wei carefully pondered Luo Qinghe’s words again and again in her heart, and couldn’t deny that with each thought a greater sadness filled her.

But this sadness in her heart was different from the others, it was like a lotus seed, sweet on the outside and bitter inside. When you toss the whole lotus seed into your mouth, sometimes it’s bitter, sometimes it’s sweet, just like the vicissitudes of life. You want to articulate a reason, but then you can’t.

At this moment, Bai Wei’s heart was truly a mess of emotions; to say she was happy, yet she clearly felt the bitterness in her heart, to say she was unhappy, yet it didn’t seem quite right either.

When the howling of the wind outside the window subsided a little, Bai Wei finally spoke slowly, "Luo Qinghe, thank you for always being so honest with me. At least this way I know you are not lying to me."

Since Luo Qinghe had entered, his complexion had finally changed. Before now, he had felt that everything was under his control, but at this moment, he realized that this was not the case.

He looked deeply at Bai Wei and slowly tried to explain again, "Bai Wei, what I mean to say is, I like you, it’s just care that I feel for Nan Qing, you haven’t misunderstood, have you?"

"I haven’t misunderstood," Bai Wei’s voice was even colder than before, even with a hint of indifference. She said lightly, "I understand what you mean, your feelings for me are romantic love, while for Nan Qing, it’s friendship, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes, that’s exactly what I mean." Luo Qinghe explained eagerly, his usually cool face tinged with urgency, "So don’t get me wrong, I just don’t want to give up Nan Qing as a friend. You know I don’t have many friends."

Bai Wei seemed to not really listen to what Luo Qinghe said next. She simply watched him quietly from the sidelines, more precisely she quietly watched his mouth move up and down, like watching a silent movie.

Two hours later, when Fu Han and He Xing arrived at the Fu Family’s house with a coldness in the air, Bai Wei pulled Fu Han to her room and told her in detail about the conversation between her and Luo Qinghe.

Fu Han truly was an exemplary audience, listening silently to Bai Wei’s story, not saying an extra word. She knew that Bai Wei at this time only needed someone to listen.

If one were to be more specific, perhaps Bai Wei also wanted an outsider’s approval.

Fu Han sat on the pink sofa in Bai Wei’s room like a student attentively attending a lecture. She looked up slightly at Bai Wei pacing back and forth by the coffee table, intently processing every word Bai Wei said.

Bai Wei’s confused voice rang out again, "Fu Han, don’t you think it’s strange, ever since Luo Qinghe and I started arguing, I’ve been expecting him to come and apologize to me, but why is it that when he does apologize, I don’t feel happy at all?"

"Perhaps it’s because..." Fu Han started delicately, speaking with extra seriousness, "Perhaps it’s because of Luo Qinghe’s attitude towards Nan Qing."

"Yes, it must be because of that." Bai Wei’s eyes lit up, speaking with extraordinary excitement, "You know what I am most angry about? Luo Qinghe says he likes me, then says he wants to be lifelong friends with Nan Qing, what... what is this called again?"

"Consort Huang and Fairy Ying sharing the blessings of the Qi people?" Fu Han knew this description of Luo Qinghe wasn’t right, but she guessed that this was what Bai Wei wanted to express.

As expected, Bai Wei excitedly nodded her head. She spoke animatedly, "Back when Luo Qinghe and Qin Xiaonian made a big ruckus online, I wasn’t pleased at all. You wouldn’t know how distressed I was every time I went to events, those people looked at me with nothing but pity."

How could Fu Han forget that incident? During the premiere of ’Longing for Home,’ Qin Xiaonian brought Luo Qinghe a bottle of water to the Waiting Room, which had something added to it, something that could immediately excite a man.

If it weren’t for Fu Han noticing something amiss and rushing over in time, Luo Qinghe and Qin Xiaonian might have immediately ’exercised,’ and that too during a live broadcast across the whole nation.

Fu Han’s memory loss and disfigurement from the car accident were indirectly caused by that incident, too. It’s something she could never forget in her lifetime.

If Fu Han hadn’t lost her memory at the time, she would have thoroughly investigated, not believing that such a plot could be orchestrated by a mere Assistant like Qin Xiaonian. An Assistant wouldn’t have such grand means.

Unfortunately, by the time Fu Han regained her memory, Qin Xiaonian had already been imprisoned – the case was closed.

Because so many other things happened afterward, Fu Han gradually let the matter go. After all, not all the blame for her injury and memory loss could be placed on that incident.

At that time, it was Bai Wei who rushed to the hospital to confront Qin Xiaonian, who, seeing someone recording, pretended to be pitiable. After Fu Han helped Bai Wei exact a bit of revenge, she forcibly took Bai Wei away.

Who knew that despite their efforts, the incident still blew up on the internet, and He Xing, who had previously instructed Fu Han to take good care of Bai Wei, saw the news and, in a moment of anger, made a call criticizing Fu Han. Little did he know, this would cause Fu Han to get into a car accident in her distraught state.

After regaining her memory, Fu Han did blame He Xing, but not long ago she learned that at the time He Xing was being backstabbed by Lixing, and the He Group’s financial chain faced some issues, so He Xing’s bad mood at that time was understandable.

Bai Wei, who had been talking for a long time and was now parched, hadn’t received any response. Only then did she realize that Fu Han had been spacing out.

Bai Wei sat down next to Fu Han unceremoniously and said, "Hey, Fu Han, have you been listening to me at all?"

"I have been listening," Fu Han’s face turned red, almost as if her guilt was written all over it. She stuck out her tongue and laughed sheepishly, "But maybe you’d like to repeat that? I’m sorry, I spaced out for a moment there."

"I really give up on you," Bai Wei sighed, but she complied, "Alright, I was saying that when I saw Luo Qinghe apologizing to me, I suddenly felt like I didn’t know him anymore."

"There’s nothing so strange about that," Teacher Fu Han replied candidly, "He Xing and I have known each other a long time, but aren’t we still often completely unreasonable with each other? Don’t you sometimes think, how come I never realized you were like this before?"
