Chapter 917: He Treated Her the Best

historical

He drew a hot tub of water after they got home and took out her night robe.

“Yan Yan, you should go take a bath. You should be careful not to catch a cold after being drenched in the rain,” he said in concern. His worry was reflected in his eyes because he knew that Yan Yan didn’t normally behave like this. He didn’t know what had happened to her and since she wasn’t willing to share, he couldn’t force her to spill either.

He Xiyan’s eyes were half-closed and she pressed her lips into a bitter smile.

She took the clothes that Jiahang gave her and her eyes that had been staring blankly ahead slowly regained their focus as she looked at this man who she had been living with for the past three years. This man used to be a fool who only had eyes for her.

“Thank you, Jiahang,” she suddenly said.

Chen Jiahang froze for a moment because her words seemingly came out of nowhere. He gently patted her shoulder and wiped the raindrops from her face.

“Quick, go ahead and shower, Yan Yan,” he said. She would truly end up catching a cold if she didn’t head inside to shower.

He Xiyan brought her clothes into the bathroom and took a long bath. When she emerged from the bathroom, her complexion seemed to have improved and she didn’t look as pale as before. However, her eyes still seemed slightly teary.

The fragrant scent of ginger filled her nose the moment she walked into the living room. She turned and saw that there was a steaming bowl of ginger soup on the table that Jiahang had made for her.

“Yan Yan... you should drink this bowl of ginger soup. It will get rid of the chill,” he said as he brought the bowl over to her and looked at her in concern.

Yan Yan used to be optimistic and cheerful but ever since he recovered his memories and returned to the Gu family, she seemed to have changed and seemed miserable.

He knew that he was likely the reason she had gotten drenched in the rain tonight.

He felt very guilty and he truly didn’t want to make her unhappy. He hoped that she would still be the optimistic person she used to be. He suddenly wondered if they would still be living happily together if he hadn’t gotten into an accident and recovered his memories.

However, this would mean that his parents would have to deal with the pain of losing their child.

He Xiyan took the bowl of ginger soup from him and gulped it down.

The soup was very hot but her heart was cold.

She went into the bedroom after she finished drinking her soup and fell onto the bed weakly.

She curled up in the corner of the bed and closed her eyes. After she closed her eyes, all the light was shut out and there was only darkness left. This darkness was as bleak as the memories she had seen. She didn’t sleep at all so she knew that Jiahang tucked her in after she lay down and placed his hand on her forehead several times to check on her temperature.

“Yan Yan, rest well. Please don’t do that again in the future because you’ll only make me worry. Don’t worry, I will not leave you whether or not my family truly accepts you. I will not abandon our home,” he said.

He Xiyan heard the whisper in her ears that sounded like a promise.

Her lips curved upward into a small smile.

“Thank you, Jiahang,” she whispered soundlessly.

She was very thankful for this man because those three years spent with him were the happiest she had been in a while and Jiahang also treated her the best.

There used to be another man who treated her extremely well a long time ago but everything changed later. Love always seemed to be at its most perfect when there were no conflicts.
