Chapter 335: Relapse

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Jiang Yanshen and Lin Qingqian got out of the car and looked at Li Guilan, who had changed into a different person, in unison, with suspicion.

Li Guilan glanced at Lin Qingqian. She was not enthusiastic, but she was not as disgusted as before. She said with a smile, “Qingqian is back too.”

Lin Qingqian’s expression was calm. She wasn’t touched by her sudden goodwill.

After all, she had seen very clearly what kind of person Li Guilan was in her bones in the past seven years. She did not believe that Li Guilan would turn over a new leaf in a short period of time.

Jiang Yanshen had the same thoughts as her, but he didn’t show it. He lowered his head and said gently, “Go in first.”

Thinking that he had something to say to Li Guilan alone, he nodded and entered the house first.

Seeing that Lin Qingqian had left, the flattering smile on Li Guilan’s face became more and more obvious. “Yanshen, Mom hasn’t seen you in a long time. You look like you’ve lost weight.”

Jiang Yanshen was not moved by her concern. His eyes were cold as he asked in a cold voice, “Why are you looking for me?”

The smile on Li Guilan’s face froze before she revealed a disappointed and bitter smile. “Yanshen, I know you resent me in your heart. I did treat you and Qingqian badly in the past, but during this period of time…”

As she spoke, her eyes turned red and tears fell. She choked and said, “Mother hasn’t been having a good time recently either… Li Dashun has raised several women outside. I used to treat that ingrate Li Ruzhu so well, but now that she sees that I’m no longer Madam Jiang, she ignores me…”

She wiped her tears, sniffed, and said hoarsely, “I really live outside alone… I can’t even call for help. I’ve been lonely and cold this year. I can’t eat or sleep well.”

Jiang Yanshen looked at her crying. Her expression was still indifferent, as if he was looking at someone who had nothing to do with him.

“So?” His thin lips squeezed out a single word stingily.

“I really did too many shameless things in the past, but I know my mistake now. Please forgive Mom and give Mom a chance. Mom will definitely take good care of you, okay?”

Li Guilan stared at him sincerely with her red eyes. Her voice was filled with tears, as if every word came from the bottom of her heart.

Jiang Yanshen pursed his thin lips into a straight line and did not speak.

“Yanshen, your father is no longer around. We’re the only blood-related family in this world. Can you really not forgive Mom?”

Just as she was about to cry again, Jiang Yanshen’s pursed thin lips relaxed. “Alright.”

“Ah?” Li Ruzhu was stunned. She did not expect him to agree so readily and thought that she would have to beg more.

“You can return to the Jiang residence to live, but you can’t call yourself Madam Jiang to the outside world,” Jiang Yanshen said coldly.

Li Guilan reacted and hurriedly nodded. She said in relief, “Actually, I don’t care about the title of Madam Jiang. I just want to salvage our blood relationship and be a good mother to compensate you.”

Jiang Yanshen stopped talking again.

Li Guilan hesitated for a moment. She looked at the door from the corner of her eye and hesitated. “Then Qingqian..

“Qianqian is very magnanimous. If you don’t find trouble with her, she won’t find trouble with you either.”

“No, no,” Li Guilan hurriedly agreed. “I was muddle-headed in the past. It’s really hard to find an obedient daughter-in-law like Qianqian. Fortunately, you two got together again. Otherwise, as a mother, I would be a sinner…” As she spoke, she was about to cry again.

Jiang Yanshen suppressed his emotions and said coldly, “Get the chauffeur to send you back to the Jiang residence.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked into the house.

Li Guilan could not hide the joy in her voice. “Come back for dinner with

Qingqian when you’re free. I’ll cook personally.”

Jiang Yanshen entered the house without looking back.

Seeing him enter the house, the smile on Li Guilan’s face darkened. She reached out and took out the recording pen in her bag.

She originally planned to announce his crime of not recognizing his biological mother to the world if he did not agree or was aggressive, ruining his reputation.

She did not expect him to agree so quickly. That was true. No matter how well the old lady treated him, she could not compare to her, his biological mother.

Now, she will return to the Jiang residence first. There would be someone to serve her. After she repaired her relationship with Jiang Yanshen, she would slowly deal with that little b*tch, Lin Qingqian.

When Jiang Yanshen walked into the house, his expression was dark. His eyebrows were furrowed tightly, and he could not hide the disgust and unhappiness in his eyes.

The uncontrollable anger in the depths of his heart surged. He clenched his fists tightly and tried his best to restrain his desire to destroy.

He couldn’t take the medicine and could only rely on his own will to suppress himself. It couldn’t flare up, he couldn’t scare Qianqian, and he couldn’t hurt her.

Soon, the blood drained from his face. His pale face was covered in bean-sized sweat, and his breathing was rapid. His handsome facial features could not hide his pain.

He held onto the stairs and walked up with difficulty. His footsteps were weak, and he missed a step and was about to fall…

A palm with thin fingers grabbed his arm and propped him up.

Jiang Yanshen turned his head and met her clear eyes. The voice in his ear was like the sound of nature. “Calm down. Don’t let Auntie see you.”

His throat rolled a few times, and his long arm landed on her shoulder. It looked like he was hugging Lin Qingqian intimately, but it was actually Lin Qingqian who helped him upstairs.

In the bedroom, Jiang Yanshen sank into the soft bed.

In the next second, he stood up and pressed his hands against his head that seemed to be about to explode. His voice was almost squeezed out of his throat.

“You… get out…”

It was clearly just three words, but he said it with extreme effort, as if he had used all his strength.

Lin Qingqian acted as if she didn’t hear him. She turned around and walked to the bedside table to open the bottom cabinet. When she took out the medicine, her expression changed.

She quickly unscrewed the medicine bottle and poured it upside down. The bottle was empty.

“Where’s the medicine?” She walked in front of Jiang Yanshen and asked in a tense voice.

Jiang Yanshen was in more and more pain. The increasingly violent emotions made him almost lose control of his body.

Destruction!

He wanted to destroy everything in sight.

“I told you to get out!” He almost shouted the words when he looked up. Scarlet blood slowly surged in his dark and terrifying eyes, like a beast that had lost its mind

Lin Qingqian felt a chill run down her spine, and her heart was trembling. Her rationality told her to leave immediately and not stay.

But every time she wanted to move, there was a force pulling at her body from the depths of her heart, making her unable to take a step forward.

This was the man she loved deeply. She shouldn’t be afraid and look at him with a strange expression. She shouldn’t look at him in fear and stab his little dignity.

He was a patient, and he was being tortured by illness. He was in pain, and she… was she really going to leave him alone at this moment?

She had asked herself countless times in her heart if she could accept everything about him, including his bipolar disorder and personality dissociation…

If she walked out of this door today, would it be equivalent to locking him in this room forever?

He could only stay in this room forever, alone and in despair. He would never be able to walk out.

Her clenched fists suddenly relaxed. She had made a choice that she had never even thought of.

She did not turn to leave. Instead, she leaned forward and hugged him, her slender arms hugging his neck that was already wet with cold sweat.

“Jiang Yanshen, I think I might be beyond help.”

Her red lips curled up as she said in a mocking tone, “If you really can’t control yourself and attack me, I don’t think I deserve anyone’s sympathy, including my own.”

Jiang Yanshen’s body suddenly stiffened. When he looked up at her, his red eyes were filled with disbelief.

Lin Qingqian hugged his head tightly and said softly, “I know I should protect myself, but women will always overflow with love and think that they can save the man they love.

Even I can’t help but want to be a Virgin Mary and save you! Although I don’t know if I can do it, I have to give it a try… Otherwise, it will seem like love and marriage are cheap!”

Her every word was very soft, but it also hit Jiang Yanshen’s heart very hard.

How much did she love him to put herself in danger?

Was this love?

Even if she knew that walking barefoot on glass fragments would cause her to be cut, bleed, and hurt, she would still smile and walk down elegantly.

Jiang Yanshen’s irritable emotions calmed down slowly and his rationality recovered bit by bit.

His cold and hard heart was softened by her gentleness. His stiff arms slowly and carefully hugged her slender waist.

Lin Qingqian looked down at the hand on her waist and saw that his emotions were calming down bit by bit. He snuggled into her arms like a child, and his eyes gradually turned red..

“Look, it doesn’t seem very difficult…”

Jiang Yanshen didn’t say anything. His long eyelashes were lowered and his eyes were closed. He only tried his best to take deep breaths. When he smelled the pleasant smell on her body, his mind seemed to be satisfied and comforted.

Lin Qingqian’s slender fingers gently touched his black and soft hair. “Ah Yan, everyone says that men’s hair and hearts are soft. I think they’re right.”

Jiang Yanshen looked cold and arrogant, but his heart was very soft. He had never hurt anyone.

Except for himself.

Half an hour later, the two of them lay on their sides on the bed and looked at each other hand in hand. No one said anything to break the silence and warmth.

As Lin Qingqian watched, she could not help but touch him. Her fingertips landed on his forehead and gently pressed down the wrinkles.

“Qianqian…” His thin lips parted slightly, and his voice was a little hoarse, as if he had just finished extreme exercise.

“Do you still remember the first time we met?” Jiang Yanshen asked.

Lin Qingqian blinked. “I remember. How could I forget?”

That was a scene of love at first sight. How could she forget it?

“I don’t remember what scene it was at that time,” Jiang Yanshen asked in a hoarse voice, his dark eyes staring at her.

Lin Qingqian lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling as she recalled the scene at that time…

“That was the first day I came to the Jiang family. Grandma asked the servants to bring me to my room.. It was the first time we met, in the greenhouse on the second floor…
