Chapter 901: There Was Love and Gratitude
Yang Yun took in large gulps of air. She had been diagnosed with a heart problem several years ago so she would start to pant heavily whenever she was upset and in serious cases, she would even have difficulty breathing.
She waved off her son’s concern and said, “I’m alright.”
Chen Jiahang had already helped his mother up and said, “Mom, I’ll bring you to the hospital for a check-up.”
He could tell that his mother was not pretending and her complexion was truly pale. He had spent so many years away from ho and now that he was back, he realized that his parents were no longer as healthy as they used to be.
He was extrely worried and felt terrible when he saw how upset his mother was. It seed like a 10 KG rock was pressing down upon him.
Yang Yun shook her head and took her son’s hand in hers as she said, “Shaoqian, I’m fine. This is an old ailnt and I’ve brought my dication with in my bag. I’ll be fine after taking two pills.”
Then, she opened up her bag and took out two pills that she quickly swallowed.
Chen Jiahang sat his mother down to rest and he only spoke after he saw that she looked slightly better. “Mom, I know both father and you find it hard to accept Yan Yan into the family for the ti being, especially since she already has a child with another man. However, I can’t abandon Yan Yan. She is a very good person and if it weren’t for her, I would still be a foolish and intellectually-challenged mute who plowed the fields at Mang Village. I wouldn’t have recovered my mories if it weren’t for her, neither would I have the opportunity to return ho to visit the both of you.”
He grew more emotional as he spoke and ant every single word. He loved Yan Yan but he was also grateful to her. He was so grateful that he could die for her and rather be estranged from his family than hurt her.
He continued when he saw that his mother had fallen silent, “Mang Village is a very poor and undeveloped village. I fard and raised fish in the village for six years and I was so poor, intellectually-challenged, and unable to speak, so I wasn’t able to find myself a wife. Three years ago, I bought Yan Yan for 50,000 dollars. Yan Yan wasn’t from a poor mountain village and she was a woman who had received a university education, had strong business acun, knew how to draw, and design. She is very kind and treated very well. There were many wives bought by the others in the village who later ran away but Yan Yan never left . She didn’t even leave when I was scamd of more than 10,000 dollars because I was too foolish. She worked hard and brought to the city to work. We set up a stall and opened a shop together, worked hard to earn money together and bought a house of our own. We’ve worked extrely hard to get to where we are today. Mom... you might not be able to understand how true and pure her love is but if I abandon the woman who stood by during the most trying of tis, how would I be able to live with myself?”
He was a little choked up by this point and turned away to stare at the pond in the distance.
Yang Yun quietly listened to her son’s words that ca from his heart. Her anger faded from her eyes and was replaced by a look of tenderness and helplessness. She felt sorry that her son had been through so much and felt helpless to do anything in this situation.
She could tell that her son was deeply in love with He Xiyan. It didn’t matter whether it was love or gratitude, his feelings for her were undeniable.
Yang Yun sighed once more. She didn’t know what she should say because she knew that anything she said would be in vain.
Forget it, she didn’t want to force her son to do sothing against his will.
