Chapter 967: They Will Accept You

He Xiyan froze just before she reached the metal gates when she spotted the familiar figure waiting nearby. It was Jiahang. He was dressed in a long coat and stood by the gates looking at his phone as though he was sending a text.

He looked like he had lost weight since she last saw him a month ago and he looked a little haggard.

He Xiyan bit her lip and for some reason, she felt terrible when she realized that Jiahang wasn’t doing as well as she had hoped.

She stood there staring at him and suddenly Jiahang looked up, and their eyes met.

“Yan Yan…” Chen Jiahang gripped the metal gate with one hand and at that moment, she was all that he could see.

He Xiyan stood frozen on the spot and her hands balled into fists. Her chest rose and fell rapidly as she forced herself to refrain from saying the words she longed to say to him.

“Yan Yan, may I come in?” Jiahang asked. His happiness had spread from his eyes to his face and he smiled excitedly.

One month has passed since he last saw her and he had finally settled all his affairs. Finally, he was now able to see the person he had been longing to see.

He Xiyan hesitated and did not agree for him to enter. Instead, she walked past the guardhouse and met him outside.

“Let me buy you a meal,” she said as she looked at the road in the distance. She was not as excited as Jiahang but instead, she felt conflicted. She didn’t know what Jiahang was doing here because she had already explained everything clearly in the letter she had left behind.

He Xiyan hopped into Jiahang’s car. This was the new car that they had purchased with their own savings, a black Mercedes sedan. She sat in the backseat as though she wanted to avoid the overly eager look in his eyes.

The expression in his eyes only made her feel flustered.

He Xiyan chose to bring Jiahang to a restaurant that was several kilometers away and they sat in a private room that was located in a more private location within the restaurant. She couldn’t dine with Jiahang within the castle because the castle belonged to the Ye family and both her children were present.

They sat across from each other.

He Xiyan ordered several dishes and these were all of Jiahang’s favorite food. Then, she looked up at the man she had spent three years together with.

Jiahang was also looking at her and his eyes twinkled with tears because he was so emotional.

“Yan Yan, I know what you’re worried about but I’ve already settled all my affairs at home. I’ve already told my parents and my grandfather about your plight and also let them know my choice and my plans for the future, so they will accept you as part of their family. My dad has also heard that you’re planning to take your husbands to court to try and obtain custody of your children, so he has contacted the mayor of Ye City and helped you paved the way. Don’t worry too much about it because the courts will definitely rule in your favor this time,” he said excitedly.

He hadn’t been able to tear his eyes away from Yan Yan since they stepped into the restaurant. He had given this matter a lot of thought while he was at Ming City and ultimately decided that he couldn’t bear to part with this woman who he had spent the past three years of his life with. He couldn’t help worrying about how she would live without him because he knew that she didn’t have anyone to turn to.

He Xiyan’s hand on the dining table shook and her heart raced when she heard from Jiahang that the courts will rule in her favor.

She blinked and didn’t know what to say at that moment.

“Yan Yan…” Chen Jiahang suddenly reached over to take her hand in his and gripped it tightly. Her hand was as cold as before; it was perpetually icy regardless of the season.

“Return to Ming City with me after this case is over,” he said.
