Bab 300: Chapter 301: Startling and Exciting (First Update)_1

"Qiaoyun, absolutely not! Our village is just a remote place. The life here is too simple, unlike the city where everything is available. If you follow me back, you'll only suffer. Moreover..."

Lin Qiaoyun interrupted him, "Moreover, you don't want to remarry, do you?"

"I... I fear my late wife would hold it against me," Nan Quanyou admitted outright.

Seeing Lin Qiaoyun start to shed tears, Nan Quanyou tried to console, "Qiaoyun, you were married too. Didn't your husband die young as well? Aren't you afraid he would blame you from his grave if you remarried?"

Feeling dejected and ashamed after being rejected, Lin Qiaoyun honestly expressed, "That man used to beat me incessantly, almost to death. I didn't shed a single tear when he died. His passing actually felt like a relief."
