The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 124

"Rong Dai, I've said that you're my wife. Everything I can give you, you don't need to feel any burden," he said gently, his gaze serious and solemn.

"If those two hundred million make you feel burdened, then the sixty percent equity is your compensation for fighting for your life. This is what you deserve."

"If after paying back those two hundred million you feel our relationship can become more pure, you can convert the equity to me. It's enough to cover the two hundred million debt, I may even need to pay you extra."

Rong Dai was stunned, she didn't expect this was his thought.

Had she wronged him with her previous assumptions?

Rong Dai's heart churned with mixed emotions, mostly guilt. She didn't expect he would express his attitude towards their relationship in this way.

She had thought their relationship was just a fleeting affair.

There were too many problems between them.

"I didn't discuss this with you, that was my mistake. I...just worry you'll overthink, but I didn't expect by not saying anything, you'd think even more."

"This kind of situation won't happen again."

"Wife, just imprisoning Wen Shi Lan doesn't seem fair to you. You nearly lost your life."

"If I lost you, no amount of compensation would be useful."

"I also took advantage of this situation. The Wen family has already gained too much from me. If it was just money, I could let it go. But I cannot tolerate them harming you."

"You're the woman I chose myself. Now and in the future you're my wife. If I can't even give you this assurance, then I'm not a qualified husband."

Huo Shao Ting held her slender hand. Even now he would still dream about Rong Dai covered in injuries back then.

He didn't dare imagine what would have happened if he was a step slower.

To ask him to forgive Wen Shi Lan and the Wen family was impossible.

"I know you're not her. Although I don't know what happened to you, I'm very certain of this point."

"If this makes you feel panicked, I won't ask about it. But I just want to protect you."

"Admittedly, one reason I married her initially was because of grandmother's wish. Another reason was when I first met her, I felt she was suitable to marry."

"But the marriage didn't turn out as ideal as I expected. You seemed a bit different after leaving the hospital last time."

His gaze fixed closely on her. Over the past few days he had also researched a lot of information. He didn't doubt Dr. Huang's professionalism.

But soul transmigration was too mystical. He didn't dare investigate too deeply either, it would be too creepy for ordinary people.

But he had experienced so many unbelievable things himself.

"Rong Dai, I'm certain the one I've truly fallen for is the present you. I also hope that in my remaining life, there will be traces of you."

"This is a heavy commitment I would never make lightly to anyone. Only you, I'm willing to make this commitment to."

"I also hope you can try to accept it. You aren't without feelings towards me either, I can feel it."

Huo Shao Ting gazed at her intently. At this moment he just wanted to tell her his most genuine thoughts.

Previously he was worried it would frighten her, so he endured and didn't say anything.

But now he had to speak up and take the initiative, he knew revealing such a mystical incident would be terrifying.

However, he didn't want this to become an obstruction between them.

These past few days he had many matters to handle. He also clearly noticed Rong Dai's changes.

He knew she felt uneasy.

Over the past few days he had also considered that if this marriage were to just end like this, Huo Shao Ting found he could not accept it.

Although recently Rong Dai was deliberately trying to please him, he clearly saw her caution.

"Rong Dai, I respect all of you, including your choices. But I hope you can give us a chance. If doing so can ease your psychological burden, I'm willing to do this."

"You're also a woman with over a billion in assets, marrying me isn't social climbing. Your strengths are invisible to them. I'm willing to empower you, I believe in you, and I believe in my own judgement."

Huo Shao Ting spoke with utmost seriousness and clarity, enunciating each word.

Everything entered Rong Dai's ears without missing a word.

Rong Dai felt both shocked and complicated inside. She didn't expect this was how he thought.

For a moment, she desperately wanted to confess everything. But seeing the serious look in Huo Shao's eyes, she suddenly became afraid this feeling came too quickly and easily, and she would soon lose it.

This feeling was like plummeting from the clouds into an abyss, filling her with panic and unease.

All she could do was grip his palm tightly, her gaze fixed closely on him. But the words stuck in her throat just wouldn't come out.

She had thought he only loved the original owner, not her present self.

So she struggled painfully, tangled by contradiction.

And her identity made her feel insecure, wanting to escape.

But hearing him say this now with her own ears, she should feel happy.

Yet she felt even more alarmed and uneasy instead.

The endings of everyone in the Rong family clan in her past life were orchestrated by her own hand.

She couldn't forgive herself, and didn't know why Heaven allowed her to relive this life.

But she didn't dare believe Heaven would so easily pardon her. She was afraid and uneasy, that if this feeling came too easily, Heaven would take it back.

She felt Huo Shao Ting's sincerity.

If they were destined to only separate, then it'd be better to end the pain quickly.

But looking into Huo Shao Ting's eyes, the voice buried deep inside her was urging her again and again to try.

She was like an ant scurrying between scalding oil and thin ice, wavering in hesitation and indecision.

"It's okay, we have time, I also have patience to wait for you. No rush, don't force yourself either. I'm doing this only to ease your psychological burden. If it has the opposite effect, then that wasn't my intention."

Sensing her struggle, Huo Shao Ting gently pulled her into his embrace, breathing in her fragrance, and said gently.
