Holding him, she burst into tears, “What should I do?
Wentian, I’m pregnant again, will this one also be an ugly child?”
After the child was born, she said with tears, “Wentian, I haven’t wronged you, all three children are your own, I also don’t know why they all turned out so ugly, I have let you down, shall we just abandon them?”
By this ti, the two older sons were already little rascals.
The eldest son, hearing this, clung to Xu Wentian’s thigh, saying, “Dad, I don’t want to be abandoned, I am your son.”
The second son was a mischievous monkey, grinning as he echoed his mother, “Abandon them, abandon them, abandon them all.”
mory halted here, Xu Wentian could no longer rember anything that ca afterward.
He even forgot what his response was at that ti.
Yet, every ti he reminisced about this segnt, Xu Wentian would smile through his tears, how could his little wife be so adorable?
Before marriage, she was fierce and overbearing, and after marriage, she beca so delicate that she needed him to bring water for her to wash her feet.
If he didn’t move, she would lie on the bed and sweetly call out to him, “Wentian, Wentian, your well-behaved wife is calling you, if you don’t co she’s going to get mad, and once she’s mad, she won’t want you anymore.”
Xu Wentian would ignore her, and she would tirelessly call his na over and over again.
He especially enjoyed hearing his little wife sweetly call out his na.
Although he knew she was pretending, Xu Wentian still liked to hear it.
That’s why every ti she ordered him around, Xu Wentian would deliberately not move, just waiting for her to act coquettishly.
One ti, he took it too far, wanting to hear her call out a few more tis, but the fierce woman ran up to him with a stick and swung it at his neck.
She ferociously asked him, “Xu Wentian, are you going or not?
If you’re not going, I’m going to hit you.”
He asked, “Would you really?”
“Of course not,” she answered confidently, staring at him with wide eyes, “I’m just trying to scare you.
If you don’t go, then I have to do it myself.
Would you bear seeing your wife in hardship?”
Thinking about these sweet and happy mories, the tears in Xu Wentian’s eyes accumulated more and more, dripping onto the jade finger ring.
That jade finger ring witnessed all the intimate monts he had with his wife.
Xu Wentian now was eager to know where she was, whether she was doing well.
How has she been all these years?
And whether she was still alive?
The answer Xu Wentian now feared most to learn was that she had left this world.
After all, they had both aged.
He very much wanted to know how sad she must have been without him.
Rembering only these fragnted mories, he was already in deep sorrow, whereas his wife rembered all their past together.
mories remained, but he was no longer there.
Had she already remarried?
After all, they had three children, and for her, a woman, taking care of three children alone, life must have been tough.
Xu Wentian was now extrely conflicted; he both looked forward and feared it.
Yet all his fears couldn’t stop the heart that longed to see her.
Even if she had remarried, Xu Wentian still wanted to know if she was all right, and where she was.
So there he sat silently on the living room sofa, his head bowed.
His wrinkled fingers gently rubbed the jade finger ring, as tenderly as if he were caressing his lover.
Elder Master Jin saw this and felt incredibly bittersweet but at such tis, even if he wanted to comfort, he didn’t know what to say.
He could only silently keep him company.
Xu Wentian held the jade finger ring and caressed it for a long ti, his hands still trembling and shaking.
Elder Master Jin saw him slowly hold the jade finger ring to his face and close his eyes, as if feeling sothing.
In his cloudy eyes, tears ran unchecked.
The elder heard Xu Wentian’s voice, unbelievably hoarse, “Where are you…”
The four words, filled with longing, choked several tis before coming out.
Elder Master Jin couldn’t help but be moved and wiped away a tear from the corner of his eye.
When his own wife passed away, he had gone through the sa thing.
But Xu Wentian was even worse off; at least his wife had spent a lifeti with him.
She had left this world peacefully.
But Xu Wentian, aware that he had a family, didn’t know where to start looking for them.
Before long, the younger family mbers were all summoned back.
Aside from Jin Yu and Jin Ruiyang, everyone else was present.
Wu Lan also ca, and even before entering the house, she began to ask.
“Dad, what happened?
Why were you in such a rush to find , what’s going on?”
Wu Lan was quite anxious when she ca back, thinking sothing serious had happened when Nanny Zhao hastily inford her.
She walked into the room, and spotting Xu Wentian, Wu Lan was about to greet him when she saw the jade finger ring in his hand.
Wu Lan’s eyes suddenly lit up; she ran over, not minding Xu Wentian’s discomfort, “Uncle Xu, so my finger guard was with you all this ti; I’ve been searching for it for ages.”
As Wu Lan reached for it, Xu Wentian suddenly grabbed her hand, frantically asking, “What did you say?
This jade finger ring is yours?”
