The Long-awaited Mr Han
chapter-979

She never regretted having Lu Man, but she had betrayed Wang Juhuai.

Xia Qingwei’s heart clenched painfully.

She really… really preferred that the truth of the past was not revealed, that everyone would live their own lives.

The truth being exposed was naturally good, but if the truth was too late, it was too cruel.

“But I found out the truth too late. At that time, you were already married with a child. I knew you, you’re a very one-track-mind person. As long as you made a promise, you would stick to it. You married him, so you would whole-heartedly devote yourself and definitely not betray him. Then what was the use of me seeking you out?”

“Xiao Xia…” Wang Juhuai called out, his voice trembling. “Right now, do we still have… still have any chance to be together?”

His giving in at that time made him regret all the way until today.

He regretted it; at that time, he should have been an *sshole, been a horrible man who should have forcefully dragged Lin Jinshu to the hospital to “abort” the child and refused to marry her.

He wished he had been a bit more of an *sshole.

Although at that time, it was also impossible for Xia Qingwei to acknowledge him again.

Even if it was fake, that sort of horrible image was seen personally by Xia Qingwei.

That “Xiao Xia” caused Xia Qingwei to uncontrollably start to cry.

With him calling her “Xiao Xia” after more than twenty years, the feeling evoked when hearing it was already different.

Was this her blaming fate for playing with her?

It had been playing with them for over twenty years. In the end, everything was actually a lie.

Xia Qingwei covered her face. “But… But I… I’m already not worthy of you! I married someone else and even gave birth to a child for him. I never regretted giving birth to Lu Man, I love her. But I regret marrying Lu Qiyuan.”

This was a regret that she never had before.

If only being married to Lu Qiyuan and giving birth to Lu Man were not linked.

“You never betrayed me, but I married someone else. I’ve already betrayed you,” Xia Qingwei said as she trembled. “Juhuai, this is a truth that came out more than twenty years too late. Over twenty years ah, how many twenty years are there? We actually missed each other for so long, but I don’t know what kind of feeling we should have now.”

“If you hadn’t come, if you hadn’t told me that everything was a mistake, I could feel better and keep on living my life now without changing. But now, I don’t know…” Xia Qingwei shook her head. “I don’t know the meaning of the past twenty over years. It seemed like everything lost its purpose.”

“It’s fine, it’s fine.” Wang Juhuai looked at her, who was crying and trembling. She was a bit hesitant, feeling troubled in her heart, but in the end, he still went close to her.

His two hands slowly went closer to her, and in the end, they landed on her thin back and carefully pulled her into his embrace.

In that moment, the tears of Wang Juhuai, a big man, actually started to flow down.

Over twenty years… Over twenty years…

Finally, finally, he was able to hug her like that again.

The girl at that time was already older, but she was in his embrace, and in his heart, she was still a young girl.

Wang Juhuai also cried.

After over twenty years, he could finally hug his lover in his arms again.

“Xiao Xia, it’s fine, there’s no need to hurry,” Wang Juhuai said as he sniffed. “I can wait. In the future, we still have a lot of time left. The two of us are both not perfect. You don’t mind me, and I also don’t mind you. Even if you can’t get past this, I can also wait.”

“I’ve already waited for over twenty years.” Wang Juhuai carefully kissed Xia Qingwei’s hair, so lightly that Xia Qingwei did not even realize it. “As long as I can be by your side from now on, it’s fine.”

“No matter how long…” Wang Juhuai said. “The two of us are both free now, right?”
