Another Chance To Love - Chapter 94
Chunlan sighed and tapped her friend’s hands as she thought of how to solve her problem. Technically speaking, she knew that if she was put in the same problem in the past, she would definitely feel the same way. As long as she could have children, she would never hesitate sacrificing her life and her child’s own to save her beloved. However, after all the things she had experienced she knew that things were not that simple as before. She told Su Menxiang. “Menxiang, I know how you feel but I want you to also consider Bingwen’s feelings too. This baby isn’t something you can just kill, its life is so precious. I suggest you think of another solution to this problem.”
“What do you want me to do?” Su Menxiang had just managed to clean her face became even more depressed and started crying again. She didn’t know what she would do if she lost her beloved because of her stupid mistake.
“There is a rare plant that is located in Europe, this plant can be a powerful component in curing rare poisons and illnesses alike. I am no doctor and I can’t tell you how to make this cure but I can draw the location of this plant so you strat looking for it.” She remembered using this plant in her last life for her mother’s illness so she was also thinking of using it to cure her blindness but she knew that she would have to compromise this time. Her plan B was now gone.
But that wasn’t important anymore.
Su Menxiang stopped crying and her eyes glinted with hope at the new piece of information she had acquired. She hugged Tang Chunlan and said. “Thank you so much, my friend. You don’t know how much I love you…At least, I can now dream of having a family with Bingwen.”
Tang Chunlan separated herself from her friend’s arms as she warned her friend. She wasn’t sure Mo Bingwen was going to forgive her so easily but it wasn’t going to impossible. “I need you to very patient with Bingwen. Arguing with him isn’t going to help since you would soon start a family. That child needs to grow up in a loving family so it’s time you start working for it. Here, I can you how to thaw his frozen heart. Come here…”
Upstairs in the same house, the two men were now sitting in the study in cold silence. None of them agreed to say anything for a long time but Bai Jihai was the first person to break the tense atmosphere with a sentence. “You are acting very reckless, Bingwen.”
Mo Bingwen, “….”
“Stop arguing with Su Menxiang. It won’t do you any good to agitate her now she is pregnant. I know that Su Menxiang is a little unreasonable but I know that she must really have her difficulties if she wants to sacrifice her own baby. If she wasn’t hesitating about this decision, his would have killed the baby already.” Bai Jihai glared at him.
“I don’t know how to convince her anymore. You don’t know how afraid I am to leave her alone. I am scared she will tell me one day that our baby is gone and I won’t be able to forgive her. I…” Mo Bingwen’s cold demeanor cracked and Bai Jihai saw just how much he had been suffering all these while.
He sat down opposite his friend and told him. “My friend, I want you to trust her just a little more. She may change her mind at the end but that’s not what is important now. If she agrees to have the baby born, will you really marry her?”
Bai Jihai wanted to ask him the real question on his mind but something told him that he would be very unwilling to answer him. He subtly changed the topic since as men, they were ones to dwell on sentimental topics for long. “I just got some information from one of my spies I planted at the Wen family. It seems like the Shen matriarch has returned, we now have a new enemy in our midst.”
Bai Jihai had been an orphan who was raised by the Tang family but he hardly mixed with the higher elites so he was sure that Mo Bingwen would know more about the old woman. He frowned when he heard her name. “We need to be very careful with her. She is one of the few cunning women alive and I think she is here to take revenge for her granddaughter, Mengqi. You know how vengeful those women get when things don’t go their way.”
Bai Jihai blinked in confusion as if he couldn’t connect what the appearance of the Shen matriarch had to do with the subject of Mengqi. He seemed very dull about the idea that she had always been in love with him because he never really paid her any attention since the day he fell in love with Chunlan. To him, she was just someone who loved competing with his woman and somehow, she saw him as a prize to be fought for.
He didn’t know if he should feel offended or not about the whole concept. He was about to say something when they heard a knock on the door and Su Menxiang walked in holding a tray with two cups of coffee. She put it on the desk and smiled at Mo Bingwen. “I just decided to bring you both something since you two have been talking for so long now. Darling, you look so pale now. Why aren’t you wearing your coat?”
Bai Jihai, “….”
Mo Bingwen, “….”
They both observed her properly, Is she
now possessed?
