"I have never forgotten my wife. This is unfair to Miss He. Moreover, I have made my wife suffer a lot. If she had not met me, she might have a better life. Miss He, I cannot be a good husband. I don't want to
Repeat Madam's harm to you."
"Lian Niang can wait."
"Don't waste Miss He's time for me."
"Leng Niang can really wait! Wait until you can accept Lian Niang!"
"I'm sorry. Let's just say goodbye and never see each other again. Miss He is so gentle and graceful, she will definitely find a husband."
Ji Ling turned around and was about to leave, but He Lianniang grabbed him by the corner of his clothes.
Ji Ling had a last resort, but he couldn't explain it.
He will only love Huayin in his life, and he doesn't want to miss He Lianniang. Besides, with his "imprisoned body", life and death are not certain, so how can he let a woman entrust him with him for the rest of his life?
Tang Waner and Qi Ying, who were walking in the courtyard, saw this scene.
"Mr. Qi, it seems that Mr. Ji still doesn't want to marry Miss He? Doesn't this make Miss He too pitiful?"
Qi Ying thought that Ji Ling's hesitation must be related to his identity. Since Ji Ling was able to stop Da Sile and Wang De from committing crimes, it might be the same reason that prevented him from marrying He Lianniang.
"Miss Wan'er, actually Brother Ji didn't agree at the beginning. Maybe he has some difficulties. You and I agree on the matter between men and women, and we outsiders can't interfere. Let them do it."
Unfortunately, Tang Waner didn't listen to Qi Ying. She stepped forward and unexpectedly slapped Ji Ling.
At this time, everyone was stunned!
Ji Ling touched the beaten part and smiled bitterly. He was not angry, but asked Tang Wan'er the reason for doing this.
"Reason?! Making a girl cry is enough to form a reason!" Tang Wan'er decided to side with He Lianniang, "Mr. Ji, why do you have to be so heartless? Even if you miss your old friend, Mrs. Ji has passed away, so you can't think about it anymore.
In vain, why let Miss He bear the hurt she shouldn't bear? Of course, it would be too hard for me to ask you to agree. But, you plan to cut off all relations, what should Miss He do? Even if we can't be husband and wife, it's better to be friends.
Never meet again! Miss He did nothing wrong at all and should not be punished!"
Tang Wan'er couldn't bear to see He Lianniang's sad look. She just loved him wholeheartedly. This was only human nature.
"One day, after Master Ji has finished his work, can he come back to see Lianniang? Lianniang doesn't insist that Mr. Ji must marry Lianniang, but at least..."
"I promise you. In the future, if I am still alive, I will definitely come back to see Miss He, and I will not let anyone bully you. One day, I will protect your health for the rest of your life."
He Lianniang finally burst into laughter.
Of course she still held on to the illusion, but in the end she still couldn't let him go, and that was her fate.
In the afternoon of that day, after lunch, Ji Ling said he had something to do and went to the market. He Lianniang wanted to accompany him, but he refused.
"Brother Ji still doesn't understand the style."
"Miss He still doesn't give up. Alas, I feel anxious just looking at her."
"Miss Wan'er, are you interested in accompanying me to see the beautiful scenery of Yan County as a shared memory for the two of you?"
Tang Wan'er nodded, blushing, and left the He Mansion with Qi Ying.
