Exile after Divorce? Empty the Scumbag Husband First!-Chapter 308 - 300: He Should Have Gone to Wei Yanjun, So How Did It End Up Like This?
However, before they could speak, Shaoxi suddenly saw the man being cared for by Ruan Qingsong! Although he looked disheveled at the moment, Shaoxi recognized him at a glance!
"Haoyu?!"
She froze for a moment, moving closer to the man in disbelief; the man quickly lowered his head, silent, even avoiding the gaze of the crowd.
The aunt looked at Ruan Mian in confusion and asked, "It seems it’s someone Shaoxi knows."
At that moment, Ruan Mian couldn’t help but recall the scene from the exile road, when punishing the greedy official Ding Cheng.
Thanks to a man named Bei Haoyu who switched sides, Ding Cheng was successfully punished and publicly displayed on the city wall.
But at that time, she had shown Bei Haoyu a clear path, directing him to seek refuge with General Wei Yanjun in the west, after all, in the original text, Wei Yanjun was a major court official, credited with quelling rebel factions.
For him to seek refuge with Wei Yanjun, the outcome shouldn’t be like this.
Ruan Mian’s gaze moved downward, discovering the man’s legs were already half gone, leaving him sitting on the grass.
The man, who was once so high-spirited, had fallen to this state.
She still remembered how Shaoxi personally saw him off, fulfilling his ambition to join the battlefield.
Now, seeing him here, it’s imaginable how heartbroken Shaoxi must be.
And indeed, she is.
Shaoxi brushed aside his hair, realizing it was indeed him, tears instantly burst forth in an unending stream.
A thousand words clogged her mouth, unsure of what to say.
Clearly, Bei Haoyu was also ashamed, unwilling to face her.
Even to Shaoxi’s trembling words, he pressed his voice and avoided her gaze, "Miss, you got the wrong person."
Shaoxi suddenly raised her eyes, emotions surging, "Mistaken? How could I mistake you?"
"Haoyu, even if you turned to ash, I can still recognize you!" Shaoxi hurried forward, her reddened eyes tightly fixating on Bei Haoyu.
Even though he had drastically changed from before, in Shaoxi’s eyes, it seemed as if he hadn’t changed at all.
But Bei Haoyu once again avoided her gaze, dragging his crippled legs, resolutely turning his body to crawl away.
Shaoxi’s palms clenched, tears accumulated at the corners of her eyes suddenly rushing down.
She exclaimed his name loudly!
"Haoyu! Do you still remember, when I was chased by that corrupt official, insulted by a traitor, what did you say to me?"
Up ahead, Bei Haoyu suddenly stopped in his tracks, his disheveled hair hiding his expression, but others could see his slightly trembling arms. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
Shaoxi continued choking, "You said, no matter what I become, no matter what predicament I fall into, in your eyes, I’m always Shaoxi."
"Isn’t it the same for me with you?!"
She took a deep breath, fiercely wiped her tears, "My mistress said, in this life, smooth sailing is not the norm. Trials and hardships are inevitable. What matters is how we perceive them, how we confront them!"
"To be alive once, though we arrive alone and leave alone, in these decades, we must do things that deserve ourselves! Haoyu, I was able to stand up again from the humiliation of others, to take control of my destiny with my own hands, why can’t you do the same?"
"I don’t care what happened to you, it’s all in the past! Because I care for you, in my heart, you’re always that way."
"The fact that we’re alive to see each other is the greatest fortune; why deny yourself because of these trivial matters?!"
These words, Shaoxi said thunderously.
Bei Haoyu could no longer hold his emotions, tears falling unrestrained.
His hatred, his inferiority, at this moment was completely exposed.
Seeing this, Shaoxi ran over without hesitation, kneeling by his side and embracing him.
This scene deeply moved Ruan Mian, the aunt, and others, their faces reflecting emotions.
Although the aunt didn’t know what had happened between them, it seems now that they have a chance to be together.
So no matter how difficult, how painful the past, the result now is good!
The road ahead is full of hope.
Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but look at Ruan Qingsong, earnestly grasping his hand.
"Song’er, you see, this is the true thought of a close family member."
"Although you remember nothing now, your parents, wife, children, family are all waiting for you to return home in Wuheng."
"No matter what you become, to them, you’re always you."
She solemnly patted Ruan Qingsong’s shoulder, encouragingly.
"Rest assured and come back with us, your sister Mianmian is so capable, she will definitely find a way for you to remember everything. Even if you don’t remember, it’s okay; once you’re home, staying with family, you’ll naturally feel emotions you can’t imagine now."
Ruan Qingsong’s eyes moved slightly, his gaze swept over the aunt and Ruan Mian, the sincerity and hope in their eyes deeply touched him.
He lowered his gaze, unable to resist speaking his mind.
"I’m sorry for worrying you. I just... just feel too ashamed to face it."
"If what you say is true, when I go back, I will be an eternal criminal. Unfaithful, unfilial, disrespectful, how could I face my family?"
"But ignorance is no crime. What you encountered in Runing City, you didn’t know before."
"You were merely deceived by Wen Qiang, she deliberately fabricated lies to lead you into a trap; if there’s a mistake, it’s hers! Where is your mistake, or your family’s mistake?"
"Song’er, if you don’t return, your wife, child, parents will always worry, always grieve, their excessive concern may cause them to fall ill! A mother misses her child, a wife longs for her husband! And Jing, he’s not even two years old, are you willing to let him grow up without a father?"
The aunt’s every word severely struck at Ruan Qingsong’s heart.
A mother misses her child, a wife longs for her husband...
At this moment, Ruan Qingsong was defeated by this expression.
The aunt knew he would agree to return to Wuheng with them sooner or later.
Yet, Ruan Qingsong had always been a kind, upright person; him coming to the Residence to willingly help others, now the situation in the Residence surely makes him reluctant to leave.
Sure enough, he took the initiative to propose to the aunt and them.
"I agree to go back with you, but before that, I want to do something with my limited ability for the people here in the Residence. Even if it’s securing more food or going to seek city’s doctors, ideally for free consultations."
The eldest aunt smiled, "We’ve come, we wouldn’t just stand by and watch others suffer, helping a little is certainly a little."
By this time, Ruan Mian had already taken advantage of everyone’s inattention to retrieve a set of silver needles and some medical supplies from the space.
Placing them in their traveling sacks.
The aunt then said, "Your sister is a superb doctor, no need to ask other doctors for free consultations; she can now lend you a helping hand."
