Chapter 120: Chapter 120: She Can’t Lose Xie Yanchuan Anymore

Xu Jinzhi was genuinely frightened, her mind still replaying the scene of the last time she had seen Xie Yanchuan in her previous life. Even as she listened to Xie Yanchuan’s solemn promises, she still clung to him, unwilling to let go.

Some truths that she had long refused to face were now magnifying overwhelmingly.

After Xie Yanchuan’s death in her previous life, she had comforted herself with the thought that it was no big deal, that her life was the same without Xie Yanchuan, unchanged.

She had still led a good life, one that many envied.

Even until her own death, when she thought of Xie Yanchuan, Xu Jinzhi still felt that she had not loved Xie Yanchuan all that much, that it was merely because he was such a good man that made him hard to forget.

Having been reborn, she chose to be with Xie Yanchuan again for many reasons.

As of now, the Xu Group choosing to collaborate with the Xie Group was the best way to expand their business territory, and marrying into the Xie Family was the optimal choice.

Although Xie Yanchuan had not spent much time with her in her previous life, during that little time he had been a good husband and a good father.

Xu Jinzhi felt that, even if she lived another lifetime, being with Xie Yanchuan, this fundamentally good man, was worth it.

As for why she was so good to Xie Yanchuan, Xu Jinzhi told herself it was to make up for his misfortunes in his past life.

It was not until this moment that Xu Jinzhi fully faced her own heart and acknowledged that, in both her past and current life, she truly loved Xie Yanchuan!

She had already lost Xie Yanchuan once, and she did not want to lose him again!

"Jinzhi..."

Xie Yanchuan was held by Xu Jinzhi for quite a while before he softly called her name. Not hearing Xu Jinzhi speak, Xie Yanchuan continued, "I had someone prepare breakfast, let’s eat something first."

After saying this, Xie Yanchuan gently pushed Xu Jinzhi’s shoulders, and she did not struggle, letting Xie Yanchuan push her away.

Seeing the tear stains on Xu Jinzhi’s face, Xie Yanchuan gently asked, "Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"

Xu Jinzhi shook her head, her voice somewhat hoarse as she said, "No."

Xie Yanchuan then breathed a sigh of relief and told Xu Jinzhi to go freshen up first. Although she had fainted for the night, she was not injured and her mobility wasn’t affected now that she was awake.

Xu Jinzhi soon washed up and then joined Xie Yanchuan for breakfast.

During the meal, Xu Jinzhi learned from Xie Yanchuan about the reason for Xie Suian’s fainting the previous day.

This incident was still connected to Liang Shiyu, and furthermore, involved Xu Jinzhi.

It was because of Lin Chu’s issues coming to light.

Of course, it hadn’t been revealed by Liang Shiyu’s side but Lin Chu had gone to the Xie Group and exposed it publicly!

Xie Suian still remembered the tumultuous events between Lin Chu and Mrs. Li from a while ago and they had specifically warned Liang Shiyu not to continue associating with Lin Chu.

Upon hearing that Lin Chu had originally targeted Xu Zhen, and that Liang Shiyu, his own daughter-in-law, was involved, Xie Suian couldn’t withstand the shock and fainted from distress.

Listening to this, Xu Jinzhi’s complexion was still somewhat pale, and her expressionless face now bore a sense of unnamed unease.

Xie Yanchuan didn’t know what Xu Jinzhi was thinking, but it was clear that she was in a very bad mood.

Jinzhi’s mood was understandably not good, as it was due to Liang Shiyu’s trouble that Xie Suian had fainted in her last life, and Xie Yanchuan had arrived a day late, only to have a car accident that very night!

She knew she was somewhat displacing her anger, so Jinzhi had been trying hard to control her emotions before.

Now, she realized she had been too lenient!

This time it was because of them again, and although Xie Yanchuan was lucky enough not to have been hurt, who knew if there wouldn’t be a next time?

Even if currently Xie Yanchuan and herself, or even involving Xu Zhen, hadn’t sustained any actual injuries, Jinzhi felt she couldn’t swallow this grievance!

Since Liang Shiyu could keep causing trouble, she had to be prepared to bear the consequences of making trouble.

Up until after they had finished breakfast, and Xie Yanchuan had cleaned up the utensils, the two of them sat there, momentarily at a loss for words.

After a while, Yanchuan suddenly said, "I was really startled when I suddenly heard about your fainting yesterday."

He wasn’t injured; he had been at the scene all along, assisting in the rescue until the ambulance arrived and then he had stepped aside, immediately thinking of Jinzhi still waiting for him.

When he got back to the car and saw the missed calls on his phone, he knew Jinzhi must have been extremely worried, but he had never expected that when he called back, he would hear the news of Jinzhi’s fainting.

He drove to the hospital as fast as he could, only then learning about the situation from Assistant Chen.

Last night, he had been by her side all the time, and it seemed like she was constantly having nightmares, always frowning and muttering something.

He didn’t catch most of what she was saying, but when Jinzhi called his name, he heard it very clearly.

Jinzhi wanted to say something too, but as she looked at Yanchuan, she didn’t know what she could say. Perhaps in the eyes of others, her behavior yesterday was a bit too timid.

She had fainted without even understanding what the situation was.

Only Jinzhi herself knew how fearful she was; any similarity to her past life terrified her immensely, especially since there were so many coincidences in this incident.

The two of them looked at each other for a while, when suddenly there was a knock on the door of the hospital room, bringing them back to reality.

Xu Zhen entered from the outside, and seeing Jinzhi sitting on the sofa, he visibly relaxed, but the worry between his brows hadn’t completely faded yet.

Jinzhi wasn’t sure if it was her illusion, but it seemed like Xu Zhen’s demeanor had aged a lot overnight.

"Dad," Jinzhi’s voice was somewhat hoarse, even carrying a slight, barely noticeable grievance.

Actually, she just pitied Xu Zhen; he was always worrying about her.

"How are you now?" Xu Zhen asked anxiously.

"I’m fine, I was just too flustered yesterday," Jinzhi said.

"That’s good, that’s good," Xu Zhen heavily sighed in relief.

Last night had been quite chaotic for Xu Zhen; even now, thinking back on it made him feel very uneasy.

"I’m sorry for making you worry," Jinzhi said in a choked voice.

What more could Xu Zhen say? How could he possibly reprimand her at such a time?

In the end, as long as Jinzhi was alright, nothing else mattered.
