Chapter 1223: What right do you have to say that you like me?!

“So stop crying...”

Sensing the gentle touch on her face, Pei Ge looked up at Ji Ziming.

Warmth filled her heart for some reason when she saw the defeated and helpless look on his face.

This man... Did she misunderstand him?

He was so gentle...

“Alright. Stop crying; it’s my fault.”

Lifting his hand, the man gently wiped away the tears on her face. He was frowning and appeared as if he were facing a difficult situation.

“Then, let go of me.”

She glared at him and lifted her wrists as she sobbed aggrievedly.

“...Okay.”

He nodded lightly and carefully removed the rope binding her wrists.

The moment her hands regained freedom, she quickly pushed the man hugging her away.

Ji Ziming felt half of his heart become empty and be engulfed by loneliness when the person left his embrace.

“This time around... This time around, I won’t blame you. Just send me back.”

Pei Ge defensively wrapped her arms around herself and eyed the man warily, but her defense against him seemed to be mixed with some hesitation.

“...”

Seeing the defensive look on her face, the man’s heart squeezed.

“I won’t let you go,” he replied after a brief moment of silence.

“What exactly do you mean?!”

She pursed her lips at his words.

“I mean exactly that.”

His eyes remained fixed on her. It was as if she would disappear if he ever blinked his eyes.

“...I really don’t get you! You obviously don’t like me, so why are you doing this?!”

She bit her lower lip lightly and frowned at the man.

He was making her confused.

Back then, he betrayed me. I even... saw him with Qiao Jingyun at the hospital to prepare for her childbirth, so why is he doing this to me now?!

What is his motive really?!

“...Who said that I don’t like you?”

He gripped her wrists tightly as his eyes narrowed. Those eyes of his were glistening dangerously.

Not expecting such a reaction from him, she was stunned.

She only returned to her senses when she felt the grip on her wrists becoming stronger.

“Let go of me! You’re hurting me!”

She struggled to break free from his grasp, but no amount of struggle could free her from his grip.

“Who said that I don’t like you?! Pei Ge, do you have a heart?!”

Disappointment filled Ji Ziming’s eyes, and it was the first time his aloof face showed a helpless and aggrieved look.

She had never seen him like this.

Thus... she was at a loss, too... though she soon regained her senses.

As she thought of what this man had done in the past and noted his present look, her confidence grew.

“Stop doing this. Have you forgotten all the things you’ve done?”

She pursed her lips and decided to make things clear once and for all today!

“The things I’ve done...”

He narrowed his eyes at her while tightening his grip around her wrists.

“Don’t tell me that you’ve forgotten? Five years ago, you betrayed me to be with Qiao Jingyun, right?”

Taking a deep breath, Pei Ge said the words she had wanted to say to him five years ago.

“Do you have any idea how hurt I was back then? You already proposed to me, right, so why did you still betray me?”

Ji Ziming was instantly stunned by her words.

“What right do you have to say that you like me now? Do you know that our chil—”

She stopped the moment she was about to say those words and swallowed them back.

This won’t work! Ican’t let him know of our children’s existence! If he were to learn about it, he’d definitely take those two away from me!

“Do you know how much I hate you?! Your betrayal has brought me so much pain! Do you have any idea?!”

Our child died because of you!

She could never forgive this man in front of her every time she thought of how Ping An’s innocent life was lost.

While she admitted that she could not forget him, the moment she thought of her son dying from premature birth without having a chance to look at this world, her heart would tell her not to forgive him!

“I don’t know...”

Seeing the tears falling from her eyes, the man muttered that in a daze.

“If you don’t know, what right do you have to say that you like me? What right do you have to do this to me?! What right do you have to keep me here?!”

Tears ran down her cheeks as her heart broke some more after she asked those questions.

She never did anything in these past five years that would reveal how she missed her lost son in front of her other children.

The two did not even know that they had a brother.

However... for the past five years, she had spent every waking moment thinking of her lost child.

She always thought that, if only she did not love this man so much and became so agitated, then... her vulnerable child might not have left this world early.

“Please don’t cry; please don’t cry. It’s my fault; it’s all my fault...”

The man walked to her side and gently pulled her into his embrace.

“Pei Ge, forgive me, alright...”

Sensing the man’s embrace, the corners of her lips curled as her palms pushed against his chest to keep a distance between them.

“It’s too late. Ji Ziming, it’s too late.”

She looked up at him with watery eyes.

“If you’re bothered by the matter with Qiao Jingyun, I can—” Explain it to you.

Alas, she did not let him finish.

“You don’t need to explain anything to me. It’s already too late; I am already married with children.”
