Chapter 1227: Tell Me About Both Your Marriages (2)

He Xiyan looked down speechlessly and all sorts of thoughts were running through her mind. She still remembered everything that happened when she was with Ye Hao. She felt as though she had gone from heaven to hell when she was with him.

“Doctor Lan, do you think that he had only made those promises to coax me into marrying him but I had taken these promises too seriously?”

She wasn’t able to get over this even until this day. She remembered Ye Hao telling her on more than one occasion that he would treat Yuan Yuan like his biological son and his words were what gave her the courage to bring Yuan Yuan, who had only been four months old, into the castle and to marry Ye Hao even with a child in tow. She didn’t expect him to treat Yuan Yuan like his biological son. All she had wanted was for him to treat Yuan Yuan like family but he didn’t have any feelings for Yuan Yuan.

Professor Lan grunted in acknowledgment, but she didn’t immediately respond to He Xiyan’s words. She looked at her documents again before she adjusted her spectacles, took several sips of water and said, “Let’s put it this way. Some men like to make empty promises to please their girlfriends or wives and sometimes. They make these promises at the spur of the moment or just blurt them out thoughtlessly. Obviously, there’s no point in taking these words seriously and a savvy woman wouldn’t take their words seriously either. However, in the case of your ex-husband, I do think that he meant it when he promised to treat your son with your ex-husband just like his biological child.”

Ah...

He Xiyan looked at Professor Lan in surprise, as though she didn’t understand what she had just said.

Professor Lan continued, “I think he thought he could fulfill his promise when he made that particular promise but he was ultimately unable to live up to that promise. He had thought too highly of himself, but this doesn’t mean that he didn’t intend to live up to the promise he had made. The conflicts that led to the breakdown of your marriage mainly stemmed from your son with your ex-husband. These conflicts are very common for those who ended up remarrying and there are many marriages that also ended up breaking down because of this. However, your actions also had a big part to play in the breakdown of your second marriage.”

He Xiyan’s eyes flickered with some emotion at Professor Lan’s words. She bit her lips and stared at the cups on the table for a long time without blinking before she said, “You’re right, Professor Lan. I failed to think things through and rushed into this relationship. I didn’t think of the problems that I would have to deal with in my second marriage, neither should I have remarried so quickly. This ended up bringing myself and my ex-husband a lot of pain.”

He Xiyan’s voice was very soft and she let out a loud sigh.

Professor Lan shook her head after she finished and said, “You’re wrong, He Xiyan. This isn’t the cause of your problem. There isn’t much of a problem with how you came to know and fall in love with your second ex-husband. You had chosen to marry each other because you were attracted to each other and truly in love with one another. It was a rare stroke of affinity for both of you. However, you both failed to take the appropriate actions when you faced problems in your marriage. After the custody of your child was wrestled away from you, you failed to handle the relationship between yourself and your first ex-husband well and neglected to think of his feelings. This led him to become extremely sensitive to this topic and even led him to become anxious and agitated. This was why his actions became so extreme later.”

He Xiyan frowned and looked at Professor Lan in confusion.
