Love Comes After Marriage novel Chapter 1226

YunyiYunyi

Yao Anqi stayed for dinner, but she did not say a word during the entire meal, unlike Mo Ziyan who talked endlessly.

A family like this was very warm, but Yao Anqi did not feel like it belonged to her, so her heart was elsewhere.

Tangning could tell that Yao Anqi was trying to keep her distance, but she did not force her to warm up to them. She may be distant the first time, but there was bound to be a second and third time. Eventually, she would change her image of the family.

After dinner, Yao Anqi decided to return home; she had already seen her son and achieved her motive, so she couldn’t just stick around.

Mo Zixi knew it was impossible for her to stay, so he gathered his courage and said, “Can I take you home?”

“What do you mean, ‘can I’? It’s something you should do,” Mo Ziyan lectured her brother.

Yao Anqi did not refuse. After saying goodbye to the Mo Family, she followed behind Mo Zixi and the two of them left together.

However, on the way back to her home, Mo Zixi shared his thoughts, “I know you still mind the matter between Chen Jingrong and I, and perhaps, you may not want to get involved with the Mo Family. Anqi, you appear to be a cold person, down to the bone, but I know you also dream of having your own family.”

“Xingzhe needs a mother and I need a wife. Since that’s the case, would you consider an attempt at being my partner? I will try my best to forget about the past so Xingzhe can have a complete family.”

“I can’t guarantee that I’ll develop feelings for you quickly, but I can promise to be a responsible husband. On top of that, after we get married, I will be loyal to you for life.”

“Of course, if you have other plans, you can pretend that I never said a thing. But, if you’re moved even the slightest by what I’ve said, could you open your heart to me a little?”

“I know you’re probably thinking that I’m saying this because of our son.”

“You’re right to think that way. But, who’s to say that this isn’t a good start for us? Four years ago, I thought Chen Jingrong was you, so we missed out on four years together. But now, four years later, fate has given us another chance. Can you hold onto this chance for the sake of Xingzhe?”

“I’m not going to brag about how great I am, but at least, my values are positive and I do not have any bad habits. I must admit that I am an ideal partner.”

“If you are going to look for a partner, could you first consider me?”

Mo Zixi spoke with seriousness and his reasoning was solid.

Perhaps, no woman could reject his suggestion. Especially since Yao Anqi thought that Mo Zixi’s life was restricted because she was unable to have an abortion, yet, Mo Zixi didn’t blame her and even asked her to open her heart to him…

How could she reject someone like this?

But, could she really receive happiness?

Because of this, Yao Anqi was quite hesitant. She was afraid that if she took one step forward, then she’d never be able to turn back…

Soon, the two of them arrived back at Yao Anqi’s home. After escorting Yao Anqi back to her apartment, Mo Zixi finally felt relieved. But, before he left, he said seriously to Yao Anqi, “I hope you can consider my suggestion.”

Yao Anqi was surprised for a few seconds, but she eventually nodded her head.

Xingzhe was the biggest connection between them. Yao Anqi was an orphan herself, so she really hoped that Xingzhe could grow up under the love and care of both his parents.

All of a sudden…her heart was a mess.

…

Meanwhile, after finding out that Mo Zixi visited the hospital, Chen Jingrong went around to ask about his whereabouts because she couldn’t contact him. But, she returned empty-handed to her room. In the end, she decided she’d try to explain herself the next time Mo Zixi appeared and she assumed they’d reconcile.

Even in front of her superiors, she told them that there was nothing wrong between her and Mo Zixi.
