Bab 26: Forgot to Thank Him

There was nothing left of He Xiyan in the house, as if she had never lived here.

He looked down at the woman in his arms, this woman whom he had chosen over another. This woman had once moved him and his heart had even wavered because of her, but at this moment, he just could not bring himself to be happy. "I'm sorry, Yuwei…" he finally opened his mouth and said the same apologetic words.

Xia Yuwei's arms tightened around him.

"It is okay, Yixuan." She pat his back gently and said in an understanding tone. "I know you would not be able to forget Miss He for the time being but that is okay. I'm sure that this family would be even more blissful once we are together. I will love you more than she ever did." She said with a straight face. She could bear Yixuan a child and earn the favor of his mother, but that woman could not.

She suddenly placed his hand on her belly. It was still very flat, but their baby was growing within it.
