Tiny Genius Alert! Mom & Dad Better Make Peace-Chapter 774 - 50: Tang Yige, Will You Die If You Stop Pretending to Be Strong?
About ten seconds passed.
Tang Yige suddenly took a breath, raised her eyes to look at Lei Yicheng, her gaze complex, but she said nothing.
She felt that she had already said everything she should and shouldn’t say to Lei Yicheng countless times, and saying it again would just be repetition.
If he could take it in, he would have let go by now.
So, why should she say things she had repeated many times before?
Lei Yicheng stared at Tang Yige’s helpless face, feeling stifled, his thick brows tightly knit, "Yige, if you can find someone just like you for me, I’ll want her."
"..."
Hearing this, Yige couldn’t remain silent any longer, she pursed her lips and said, "Yicheng, why are you doing this? I... I really don’t think I’m that great, worthy of you treating me this way."
Looking at Yige, whose brows were tightly furrowed, Lei Yicheng said, "What reason is there for love? Your feelings for Si Nan, my feelings for you, they’re both unreasoned."
Hearing him mention Si Nan, Tang Yige slightly tightened her grip on the chopsticks in her hand, her lips forming a bitter smile after a while, "Yicheng, let me tell you a story."
A flicker of surprise crossed Lei Yicheng’s eyes, he pressed his lips together, "Alright."
"There was a girl who liked a boy from a young age, dreaming of marrying him when she grew up. But the boy disliked her, hated her.
He believed that the girl had used schemes to lure him away to a hotel the night before his wedding with his loved one, and forcibly had relations with him."
Yige paused for a good few seconds there, and when she continued, her voice was hoarse, "But the girl didn’t do that, she was also tricked into the hotel.
After that night, the boy told the girl he wished she’d never appear before him again, and that she should avoid him whenever she saw him, saying that she shouldn’t make him loathe her even more.
Later, the boy still married his beloved girl. The girl who liked him since childhood was cast out of the family by her father as a disgrace, with rumors spreading like wildfire in that city about how she slept with another woman’s husband using despicable means.
The girl became someone everyone wanted to step on, she seemed to become a target for public condemnation.
During that period, life was worse than death for the girl. So, she left, went abroad.
Abroad, the girl lived indulgently every day, drinking heavily, clubbing, smoking heavily, numbing herself with alcohol and nicotine.
Yet whenever she got drunk, instead of solace, she felt even more pain. She thought countless times of ending it all.
But as long as she knew the boy was alive somewhere in the world, she couldn’t bear to die just like that.
She thought she’d spend her life in a reversed day-and-night cycle, living one day at a time drunk and in a dream, yet it was during this time that the girl discovered she was pregnant."
Lei Yicheng’s back jolted violently, his deep eyes widened as he stared at Yige.
He knew Yige was telling her own story.
But pregnant...
He never knew she had been pregnant...
Hearing Yige say this, Lei Yicheng’s expression now could not simply be described as shocked.
Tang Yige looked at Lei Yicheng’s face, shocked to the extreme, with a clear and sorrowful gaze, and continued softly, "The arrival of that little life gave the girl a new hope for living.
She began to live well, quit smoking, drinking, clubbing, and no longer cried when thinking of that boy. She felt heaven wasn’t unjust to her and felt happy..."
Tang Yige’s eyes suddenly got red, her throat trembling violently, "But the child ultimately had no fate with the girl, staying in her womb for only seven months before leaving her.
The girl was suddenly thrown from heaven to hell, from that day, her world seemed only to have the night, not the day. She cried day and night, screamed day and night.
Then, because of disturbing the neighbors, she was reported to the local police who on the grounds of her having mental issues, forcibly took her to a mental hospital for isolation for three months."
"Yige..."
Lei Yicheng’s fists clenched so tight they creaked, his eyes a fiery red, his heart felt as if bound by iron wires, as if already bleeding profusely.
He didn’t know she had been pregnant, had miscarried, or was even treated as a mental patient and locked in a mental hospital for as long as three months during that period!
They knew nothing!
At this moment.
Lei Yicheng was both furious and heartbroken.
She was obviously the eldest daughter of the Tang Family, born and raised in luxury, yet because of her sister’s scheming, she endured so much suffering and torment.
He couldn’t imagine her despair and pain when the child left her body.
Tang Yige closed her eyes.
After a long time, she opened her eyes, except for a tinge of redness, she was very calm, she looked at Lei Yicheng and said, "Not only that. Because of her previous indulgence and the miscarriage, the girl lost the ability to bear children."
"..."
Lei Yicheng’s breath stalled, his pupils suddenly constricting, staring at Yige in shock.
Tang Yige sniffed, picked up the beer beside her, and drank a large gulp.
When the beer can was placed on the table, Tang Yige smiled at Lei Yicheng and said, "For a woman like this to be able to live tenaciously is already not bad, guilt and self-blame would crush her."
With that, Tang Yige stood up from her seat, "I’m going back to the hotel."
Afterwards, before Lei Yicheng could say anything, Yige wrapped her coat tightly around herself and walked quickly forward.
Lei Yicheng sat dazed in his chair for at least a dozen seconds before he suddenly raised his hand to wipe his face, then stood up and hurried forward.
At the moment her wrist was grabbed from behind, Yige’s heart leapt.
When her body was pulled into the man’s broad and solid chest, Tang Yige instinctively struggled.
Lei Yicheng held Tang Yige’s waist and back tightly, with his cold jaw resting on the top of her head, no matter how much Tang Yige struggled, he didn’t loosen his grip on her.
Perhaps sensing his determination, gradually, Tang Yige stopped struggling, her hands hung limp at her sides.
Lei Yicheng just held Tang Yige like this, refusing to let go.
He felt heartache, a deep heartache.
Heartache to the point where he wished he could rip his heart out and throw it away!
How could it hurt this much!
Just how much more suffering had this woman gone through that they didn’t know?!
"Tang Yige, will you die if you don’t pretend to be strong?!"
No one knew how long had passed when Lei Yicheng suddenly let go of Yige, his hands grabbing her slender arms tightly like iron pincers, his eyes blazing red as he glared at her, panting heavily, and shouted angrily.
"..." Tang Yige was dumbfounded by his shout.
Evidently, Tang Yige had never seen Lei Yicheng so furious before.
"Yicheng..."
"Shut up!"
Tang Yige, "..."
