My Little Sweet Wife

Chapter 450 - What Happened Between You And Zihao



Xian Zihao's actions stunned Jiang Ruolan. When she came back to her senses, she had been carried to the bedroom.

When she was about to speak, he laid her on the bed gently. "You haven't slept all night, have you? Aren't you sleepy?"

  "Xian Zihao." Jiang Ruolan opened her mouth, but she was interrupted by Xian Zihao pulling the blanket over her body.

"I don't..." Jiang Ruolan, at first, wanted to say that she didn't feel sleepy. How can she sleep like this? She had never seen this side of Xian Zihao before. He had actually pretended to be deaf and acted shamelessly with her!

Xian Zihao was already standing, but when he was about to leave, he turned and looked at her. Seeing the stubbornness in her eyes, he frowned and said, "No matter how much you struggle, I'm not going to sign the divorce agreement. It's better for you just to sleep and rest."

Honestly speaking, Jiang Ruolan can hate the Xian Family, but she can't stop herself from falling in love with Xian Zihao. Seeing him like this, she also knew that he was just smiling on the surface, and he must have felt very sad inside. Maybe this matter was also burdening him.

Jiang Ruolan leaned back against the headboard, watching his expression as he stood next to the bed and looked at her. She said nothing more, just closed her eyes, and then she shrank back into the blanket and lifted the blanket to cover her head.

In the end, not long after, the blanket was removed by him. "Don't sleep like this, you can't breathe. Lie down well." Xian Zihao sat on the edge of the bed and placed his hands slowly on her head, stroking her hair.

Jiang Ruolan didn't say anything. She just looked at him calmly with determination, indicating that they should divorce.

It's been a month, and she's been suffering for a month. No matter how reluctant she was, if she continued to live like this, she would definitely go crazy.

"Don't think too much about it, go to sleep first. I won't be going to the Xian Group today, but I have some things to take care of. If you can't find me after you wake up, then go to the study room, hmm?"

The more he acted like this, the crueler she felt. He was obviously already in a state of disintegration, so why did he have to maintain the illusion that nothing had changed?

'Xian Zihao, are you betting on the tenderness of my heart and the depth of my love for you?'

Now was not the time to judge everything by love.

Maybe Xian Zihao understood what was playing in her mind. He then got up and walked out, and before he left, there was a heavy look in his eyes.

Jiang Ruolan's face was indeed pale, and recently she had not been able to sleep well. She didn't sleep last night until dawn, and her body could not bear it any longer. Though there were too many things to take care of, but right now, she could not think of them too much. When the bedroom door was gently closed by Xian Zihao, Jiang Ruolan closed her eyes, sighed, and fell into sleep.

In her dream, blood was splattered on the ground.

The two little children stood in a pool of blood on the ground as they saw the bloody scene in front of them.

Two figures stood in front of them. It was Xian Tingfeng who was killing Jiang Ruolan's mother, Zhou Qingling!

Xian Tingfeng, who forced her mother to commit suicide by jumping from a high building.

Xian Tingfeng, who, for his own sake, neglected human life. 

Not only did he force Jiang Ruolan's mother to die, he even ruined her whole life!

"Lan."

Seeing her mother squatting in front of her and smiling like a flower, the little girl who hugged the little child, smiled. She placed the doll to the side and jumped into the woman's embrace.

However, just as she pounced forward, she actually missed. Beneath her feet was a terrifying tall building. If she took another step forward, she would be severely mutilated like a woman who had just jumped to commit suicide.

"Mommy…"

"Mom …"

"Ah!

Jiang Ruolan suddenly sat up from the bed. Her eyes were wide open as she stared at the wall. She sat there dumbly without moving for a long time.

"Ruolan?" Seeing her expression after waking up, Zhan An was also shocked. After staring at her for a long time, she whispered, "Child, do you have a nightmare?"

Jiang Ruolan abruptly turned her head and saw Zhan An sitting next to her. She was stunned for a moment, then looked around. 

The word "mother" that was about to come out of her mouth suddenly stopped. Although Zhan An was also a victim and innocent in the incident, she (Jiang Ruolan) had already reached this point and can no longer call her "mother".

"What kind of nightmare did you have? Why are you so scared that you can't speak?" Zhan An stroked her hair gently. "Look at you, so much cold sweat coming out of your forehead. You're just dreaming. Don't be afraid."

Zhan An stood up and poured a cup of water for Jiang Ruolan before handing it to her. "Here, drink this water first. Hopefully, it will help to calm your nerves."

Jiang Ruolan took the cup and lowered her head to drink.

She had been hiding for a month and in the end, she still met Zhan An. She didn't know what to say now.

"I called this morning and just heard from Zihao that yesterday was your birthday. Child, you didn't even tell your family about your birthday. If I knew, I would celebrate it with you! How about we celebrate it today with the rest of the Xian Family? After all, this is your first birthday after marrying into the Xian Family, so we'll need to gather everyone. Why don't you come to Xian Residence tonight?"

Zhan An then smiled and said, "There are a lot of things going on in the Xian Group recently. When I arrived, Zihao was still on the phone with his secretary, so I didn't greet him and just came in to see you. I initially wanted to accompany you, but I didn't have the heart to wake you up when I saw you sleeping.  Then I saw you screaming and sitting up! You really scared me! What kind of dream are you dreaming about for you to be so scared?"

Jiang Ruolan took a few sips before lowering the cup. After a moment of hesitation, she looked at Zhan An and smiled, "It's nothing. It's just an ordinary nightmare. There's no need for you to feel worried. I'm not a child anymore."

Zhan An was able to tell that she didn't want to talk about it, so she (Zhan An) just sat on the side of the bed and took the cup from her hand, "Ruolan, why do you look so pale? It's okay if you don't want to celebrate your birthday, but you haven't come back to visit the Old Man since he was discharged from the hospital. No matter what, you have to take some time to go back and take a look."

Zhan An raised her hand and lovingly touched her head and face. "Is there something on your mind?"

Jiang Ruolan shook her head. "No. I may not have fully woken up from my nightmare and woke up in a hurry, that's why I felt a little dizzy."

Zhan An looked at her again. Seeing that Jiang Ruolan was fine but strangely quiet, she held her hand. After thinking for a while, she said, "Ruolan, I don't know if I should say something ..."

Jiang Ruolan looked at her. "What do you want to say?"

"I called this morning to ask Zihao why he didn't tell me that yesterday was your birthday. I wanted to celebrate it with you today and that's why I came here. As I walked into the house, I saw the agreement on the coffee table with some items placed on it. I initially wanted to pack the items on the table, but in the end, I accidentally hit the letter of agreement."

Zhan An then looked at her, "Ruolan, what happened between you and Zihao? What about this divorce agreement?"

Jiang Ruolan was taken aback. She was about to explain when the bedroom door opened. Xian Zihao stood in the doorway and asked, "Mom, aren't you supposed to accompany Guiying?"

Zhan An only turned her head to look at him once before continuing to look at Jiang Ruolan.

In this situation, Jiang Ruolan was more unwilling to face the Xian Family's questions directly. She lowered her head and quietly clenched her fists. Her nails were digging into the palms of her hands. The pain made her clear-headed enough to remember what she had done.

Now that she had reached this step, she had no choice. 

Jiang Ruolan raised her head and said, "I ..."
