Chapter 1119 - 1119 Goddess
1119 Goddess
Over the years, he found out about how Xia He was doing through this classmate. He knew that the rumors were all exaggerated and that the truth was already tainted. People only wanted to see the ending they hoped for. It was possible that Xia He’s experience was not so terrible, but his heart still ached for her and he felt that she deserved so much better.
A woman like Xia He deserved all the best things in the world! She deserved everything good!
“Why are you asking so many questions! Our son knows what he’s doing! Don’t you trust your son?” Deng Rui said.
“Is it because I don’t trust him? It’s because I dare not trust him! Deng Fan is already an adult but he still doesn’t want to get married yet. How can I not be anxious? I’m looking forward to having a grandchild as soon as possible. Do you think I’m doing this for myself! I’m doing this for your Deng family! Will our grandchild have my surname? His or her surname will be Deng! Why are you grumbling about me now!” Jiang Shu said in annoyance.
Deng Rui pulled Jiang Shu into his arms and coaxed her with all kinds of sweet talk. He waved his hand secretly to ask Deng Fan to hurry back into his room. This was a common trick used by father and son. Whenever Deng Fan did something wrong, Deng Rui would always cover for him. As long as Deng Rui put more effort into coaxing Jiang Shu, her anger would naturally dissipate.
Deng Fan heaved a sigh of relief when he reached his room. He took out a precious photo from the drawer and touched it gently. It was the only photo he had taken with Xia He in high school, and it was also his only yearning.
All these years, he had been waiting for Xia He. Now that he finally had a chance, he still did not dare to express his feelings to Xia He. In his eyes, Xia He was like a high and mighty goddess, sacred and inviolable. How could a mediocre person like him be worthy of Xia He?
Deng Fan held on to this love for many years and had hidden it deep in his heart. As long as no one discovered it, he could hide it for the rest of his life.
Qiao Mei had just finished lunch when she bumped into Xia He who had returned in high spirits. Xia He even skipped as she walked in. Did Xia He not say that she would only be back at night? How strange.
“Why are you back so early?” Qiao Mei asked.
“I did something fantastic today! It was especially satisfying! I even feel like setting off firecrackers to celebrate!” Xia He said excitedly.
“We still have firecrackers in the storeroom. Why don’t you set them off now?” Qiao Mei said.
“I’m just saying. We should set off those firecrackers when you give birth. Let’s keep them for now. I went to the art troupe today and got into a fight with someone. She’s probably still wailing in pain in the hospital now!” Xia He felt happy whenever she thought back to how uncomfortable Yang Xin looked. This was retribution for evil people. It was her fault for always spreading rumors. Let this be a lesson for her!
Qiao Mei thought highly of Xia He’s combat strength and hoped that Xia He remembered to go easy on the other party. If Xia He beat up that person badly, how was she going to return to the art troupe in the future?
Based on Xia He’s character, as long as she was not provoked, she would not take the initiative to attack. To Qiao Mei, there was nothing for her to worry about.
The next day arrived very quickly. Xia Wen and Tan Jing had finished packing their things for the move to the countryside. Tan Jing had a big fight with Xia Wen over this matter and even smashed everything in the house when she was packing her luggage, but Xia Wen still refused to give in.
Xia Wen was not that unreasonable. He gave Tan Jing two choices. Either she moved to the countryside with him and became self-sufficient, or she could return to the Tan family and live with them. Of course, Tan Jing would not choose to go back to the Tan family, so she could only leave with Xia Wen silently.
Although people termed this place as the countryside, it was more like the urban-rural fringe. The living environment was not as arduous as Xia Wen had described and it was not that far from the city. The whole place was also quite well-equipped. The courtyard was very big and the farmland was vast. Tan Jing could grow vegetables or flowers, depending on what she liked. Life could be very cozy and comfortable here.
If Qiao Mei saw this place, she would be very eager to buy it for herself! She was still worried about not having a place to plant her seeds. If she was the one who had to come to this village, she would definitely help all the villagers here to make money together. It would be just like her neighbors in Foshan Village, where she helped every family to live a comfortable life.
