The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife
Chapter 369: Need a Break
Chapter 369
"Nianzhi Lu, if there's anything going on, why don't you and Mr. Xu go outside to talk?"
"The child is still young, don't scare the child."
"Quarrelling and losing your temper won't solve the issues between you. Have a good talk, it'll be better for both of you."
She reminded Nianzhi Lu, and when she looked at little carrot-top Xu Heng, her heart instantly softened into a mess, and her voice became much gentler unconsciously.
Nianzhi Lu knew a little about what was going on between her and Xu Chuan.
But since she didn't witness it personally after all, she didn't give any opinion back then when she first heard about it.
However, as a woman herself, she could understand Nianzhi Lu's feelings.
But with Nianzhi Lu's temper, flaming up at the sight of Xu Chuan and scolding him, this wouldn't solve anything between them.
It wouldn't untie the knot in her own heart either. The one suffering would still be herself.
Let's not talk about Xu Chuan's faults for the moment.
Such excessive behavior of hers was actually because she still couldn't let go of that incident. She wanted an explanation from Xu Chuan.
But she never gave Xu Chuan a chance all this time.
Even if Xu Chuan wanted to explain, being scolded like this upon sight, how could he explain anything?
Some things, the more they're let go, the more they occupy the mind.
"Rong Dai, you......"
Nianzhi Lu looked at her in shock. She didn't expect Rong Dai to speak up for Xu Chuan!
Seeing the look in her eyes, Rong Dai felt somewhat exasperated.
"Sister Nianzhi, you and I are family. I'm barely acquainted with Mr. Xu. Why would I speak for him?"
"I just want to help you."
She said, looking at the two people before her.
She also lamented to herself that it was a shame. If not for what happened five years ago, Nianzhi Lu and Xu Chuan would have been a perfect match.
"Whenever you see Mr. Xu you get angry, and that's because you haven't let it go all these years."
"Back when you told me about this, I didn't know what advice to offer."
She started to explain, glancing at Xu Chuan before focusing back on Nianzhi Lu.
"I don't know what kind of person Mr. Xu is, but from his words just now, I feel like you could sit down with Mr. Xu and have a talk, Sister Nianzhi."
"The deeper something is buried in your heart, the harder it is to let go."
"I'm not saying this to persuade you to make up with Mr. Xu and forget everything."
"I just want you to get the explanation you want, to release yourself. Don't let this matter ruin your youth anymore. Life is short, five years is no small amount."
Rong Dai advised her earnestly.
Only the perpetrator can lift this grievance.
Today she would act as the peacemaker.
Hearing her words, Nianzhi Lu's anger gradually cooled down. But her face was still dark as she glowered at Xu Chuan.
"What do you mean by that?"
She asked in an awful tone.
Rong Dai's words had struck deep.
But whenever she thought about that incident she felt intense disgust!
Yet she wanted a clear explanation, even if Xu Chuan had to make one up just to mollify her.
That would be fine too.
She really...needed to liberate herself.
Living these five years had been truly exhausting. It was like a demon that kept tormenting her.
Xu Chuan promptly nodded, seemingly afraid that she would change her mind. "There's a cafe nearby. Shall we go there?"
Five years had passed and he still wanted to give her an explanation.
He didn't expect this explanation to melt the ice between him and Nianzhi, but at least he didn't want her to live so painfully.
He wanted her to stop tormenting herself and live well.
He didn't deserve forgiveness for the rest of his life. Even if he had to live in remorse and self-blame, growing old all alone, he was willing.
