"He said that if you are willing to get rid of the child, he will divorce you and will no longer pursue the crimes that uncle has committed against the Geng family. From now on, we will have nothing to do with each other, and marriage between men and women will have nothing to do with each other." Yang Ziqian slowly relayed Geng Bern's decision.
"Jia Li, since he said so, why don't you simply accept this condition?" Although Meng Ruitai already knew his daughter's thoughts, it was hard to say whether Geng Bo'en could completely let go. He did not want to use his daughter's life as a bet and risk continuing this marriage.
"Yes, Jia Li, take this opportunity to start over, and I will take care of you." Yang Ziqian's originally desperate heart couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope.
Marriage between men and women has nothing to do with each other... Meng Jiali lowered her eyelashes as if thinking about something, her long eyelashes cast a shadow under her eyes, and she didn't speak for a long time.
Meng Ruitai and Yang Ziqian glanced at each other, and they both saw anxiety and expectation in each other's eyes.
Compared to Geng Boen, Meng Ruitai indeed hopes that her daughter can be with Yang Ziqian. A woman just wants to find a man who loves her more, and Yang Ziqian definitely meets this qualification.
When his daughter introduced the senior to him, he admired the young man very much. When he fell ill later, Yang Ziqian tried his best to arrange everything for him and promised to take good care of Jia Li and let him go abroad for recuperation without any worries. This made him praise him even more. Originally, he thought they would end up together, but he didn't expect... Sigh.
"What a beautiful thought..." Meng Jiali suddenly moved her lips and murmured softly.
"What did you say?" Meng Ruitai and Yang Ziqian asked in unison.
"He wants to just get rid of me and the baby, what a beautiful idea!" She curved her lips in a slight arc and repeated in a louder voice.
"You kid-" Meng Ruitai tapped the floor with his crutch in frustration.
Yang Ziqian on the side was not too disappointed. Perhaps deep down in his heart, he already knew her answer.
"Then what are you going to do?" He suppressed the bitterness in his heart and accepted her decision calmly.
"Wait." Meng Jiali said briefly.
"Wait?" Yang Ziqian didn't expect this answer.
Meng Jiali nodded slightly and whispered: "Wait." And she believed that the wait should not take too long.
It was just as Meng Jiali expected, no, it was beyond her expectation. She didn't even have to wait. After Yang Ziqian conveyed the message that she insisted on refusing to take away the child, Geng Boen's figure immediately appeared in the ward, less than half an hour after she said the word "wait".
Yang Ziqian happened to take Meng Ruitai back to rest, so she was the only one left in the ward, which was convenient for her to have a good talk with Geng Bo'en.
"Why the hell didn't you agree?!" Geng Bo'en couldn't help but growl as soon as he entered the ward.
"Are you here?" Although Meng Jiali was surprised by his quick appearance, there was no emotion in her tone and she asked calmly.
Geng Bo'en looked at Meng Jiali, who was lying on the hospital bed. She was so thin that she seemed to disappear into the mattress. Her throat seemed to be pinched tightly, making it almost impossible to breathe.
God knows how much he wanted to see her, wanted to tell her that he shouldn't distrust her, wanted to tell her that he had actually liked her and had a crush on her all along, but he couldn't face how he had hurt her and humiliated her.
Thinking of the despicable means he used to force her to sign a contract marriage, of the first time he violently took possession of her, of the verbal bullying he had said to her every word, the more he thought of it, the more he lost the courage to see her.
He shouldn't appear in her life again, just like she shouldn't lose her luster and lie sickly in the hospital bed.
"I brought the divorce agreement and the abortion consent form." Geng Bo'en suppressed the emotions rolling in his chest and coldly placed the brown paper bag containing the documents on her bedside. "I have already signed the name, and the only thing missing is yours. Take the child away, and I am willing to let you go free. Let's stop here."
"No." Meng Jiali expressed her meaning simply and clearly, so cheerfully that Geng Bo'en had no time to react.
"No?" His haggard and haggard face was full of astonishment.
"That's right, don't!" Doesn't her pronunciation sound correct?
"Why?" She should be very happy to be freed."If you have other conditions you can put forward, I will agree to it. As long as you are willing to take away the child, everything will be easy to negotiate."
"Do you hate me and the children so much? Do you have to get rid of us quickly?" Meng Jiali sat up halfway, with a heavy layer of sadness on her face.
Why is the logic of this sentence a bit weird?It was obviously him who forced her to marry him, so she should be happy to get out of this contract marriage.
Geng Bo'en looked at her deeply and shook his head slowly, "No, I'm just correcting the mistake at the beginning. I shouldn't force you to marry me." Later, he found out after reading his father's suicide note that there was a promissory note signed by Meng Ruitai in it, and his father learned about it before he died.After Meng Ruitai betrayed him for the real reason, he had forgiven him. Just as his grandmother said, his father only hoped that he could put aside his hatred, live happily, start a family with the woman he loved deeply, and live a happy life.
Unfortunately, it was too late, he hurt his most beloved woman...
Meng Jiali looked at him, her eyes shining brightly, and she said with a half-smile, "Why don't you think it was me who took advantage of the situation to marry you?"
Geng Boen's heart suddenly pounded. The implications of her words made his mind unable to think for the first time, and the palms of his hands even became slightly clammy due to nervousness.
"That's it." The blank expression on his face when he looked at me really looked like the fool Geng Boen when he was a child. "Although I didn't expect that we would meet again like that, in my heart, I may have been waiting for the fat boy I like for a long, long time. Although the process is not very comfortable, I will never force myself to marry you. I am even very happy to be your wife. I am happy to give up my job for you, and I don't think it is torture."
Geng Bo'en only heard the beating of heartbeats like drums in his ears, one sound louder than the other, as if a strong emotion was about to burst out of his chest.
"So, do you think I'm still willing to divorce you after I finally got you to marry me?" She arched her eyebrows, smiled, and said firmly: "In short, I am committed to you in this life, so just accept your fate. I will not divorce, and I will never take away the child. Do you understand?"
Did he hear it correctly?Did she just mean that she had already fallen in love with him when he was still that fat boy?
"Why don't you speak? This is the first time I confess to a man, can you say something?" Meng Jiali bit her lower lip, a faint blush on her haggard cheeks.
"Confess... Confession? You said you have liked me a long time ago?" Geng Bo'en found it hard to believe that such a beautiful thing would happen to him.
"What I just said was in Chinese, right?" It's so obvious and you still can't hear it?
"You don't hate me? After all the hateful things I did to you..." His voice actually trembled with weakness.
"Unless you don't love me, that's really the most abominable behavior I've ever encountered in my life." She joked, but her eyes were already filled with tears from the emotion, and she opened her arms towards him, waiting for his reaction.
"I love you, how could I not love you? I have loved you for a long, long time. I couldn't help but fall in love with you when I first saw you." Geng Bo'en could no longer resist his strong love for her. He leaned over and held her tightly in his arms, wishing to rub her into his body and never be separated again.
"First sight?" Tears blurred Meng Jiali's vision. She buried her face in his chest, greedily smelling his manly scent. Her heart, which had been tense, could finally rest on him.
"At first sight." Geng Bo'en affirmed that he had fallen in love with the girl with the determined eyes as early as when his father took him to introduce Uncle Meng to her.

"I was very fierce then." She raised her head from his arms with a sweet smile.
"That's not fierce, that's personality." He held her face, wondering how he could be so lucky. After so many ups and downs, he could still have her. How forgiving God was to him.
