187 “After Fast Traveling and Sleeping with the Villain” World 6, Stepmother and Son (39)

“That’s right.”

Jiang Pingyang admitted without hesitation.

Xue Xue’s eyebrows were raised upward, which matched her pair of narrow phoenix eyes, which made her even more sharp.”Why?”

“I used that money to buy out the relationship with the mother and son.”

Hearing this, Xue Xue was stunned.

Although she had thought about this possibility as soon as she received the news, she quickly denied it.

Jiang Pingyang is a passionate person.

Although most of the time he seems to maintain just the right distance from everyone, not being rude but not too intimate, as long as he puts it in his heart, Jiang Pingyang will remember it, even if the other person may not be worth it at all.

Because of this, although he is eager to gain feelings, he prefers to deal with interpersonal relationships with an indifferent attitude.

But family is definitely an exception.

Even if Jiang Huaide focuses almost all his attention on research, even if Ding Rou and Jiang Anyang hate him, to Jiang Pingyang, these people are still family members, family members who occupy a pivotal position in his heart.

It was only after thoroughly investigating Ding Rou and Jiang Anyang’s information that Xue Xue found out that Jiang Anyang was able to obtain the exchange student qualification with a full scholarship with above-average grades because of Jiang Pingyang’s help.

For such a man, Xue Xue thought it would be a difficult challenge for him to take the initiative to cut off contact with Ding Rou and Jiang Anyang.

So she had already started planning this.

In Xue Xue’s view, if one wants to successfully fulfill the client’s request, one of the necessary conditions is to drive away the uncertain factors of Ding Rou and Jiang Anyang from life, and this must be done thoroughly.

If they were given a chance to stand up one day, the mother and son would definitely continue to cause trouble.

Xue Xue thought that this was something that needed long-term consideration, and she was mentally prepared. She would not relax because she succeeded in making Xue Wangui see Ding Rou’s true face and drive Jiang Anyang out of the company. She did not expect that Jiang Pingyang would tell her now that he had taken the initiative to cut off this line of kinship.

It is impossible to say that Xue Xue was not surprised.

After all, before coming to Jiang Pingyang for answers, she was ready to explain to the man why she wanted Ding Rou and Jiang Anyang to be kicked out of the Xue family without any mercy.

“I know you think it’s incredible. In fact, even I find it incredible.” Jiang Pingyang smiled bitterly.”I actually didn’t make up my mind to take out the document with the check that day.”

Documentation with a check?

Xue Xue thought of the brown paper bag that Jiang Pingyang finally gave to Ding Rou.

Could it be…

“Yes, that day at Mar-a-Lago Park.”

“I wasn’t sure what I was going to do until I walked through the door.”

“But after talking to her…after talking to Ding Rou, I knew that even if it wasn’t that day, I would hand over the brown paper bag one day in the future.”

“In this case, it is better to make a decision as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary trouble and… harm.”

When Jiang Pingyang said these words, he stared at Xue Xue’s eyes very intently, and therefore Xue Xue did not miss any subtle changes in the man’s face.

She could see that this decision was not easy for Jiang Pingyang, but Jiang Pingyang was such a man. He might hesitate and feel uneasy during the process, but once he made a choice, he would stick to it without regrets.

It’s like giving up his lofty status in a well-known foreign research laboratory and returning to China to join the new startup team in the parallel universe. It’s like agreeing to Xue Xue’s pursuit, and it’s like severing ties with Ding Rou.

And Xue Xue quickly understood what Jiang Pingyang meant by “trouble” and “hurt”.

He didn’t want Ding Rou and Jiang Anyang to bother him anymore with the past.

At the moment, Xue Xue’s heart was filled with sour and astringent tastes, but what was brewing was a sweet feeling.

“Jiang Pingyang…”

“There’s only so much I can do.” Seeing Xue Xue’s mood swings, Jiang Pingyang put his arms around her.”Xue Xue, in my heart, you are the most important.”

Jiang Pingyang’s big palm caressed Xue Xue’s back.

Thank you for being willing to love me, thank you for making me believe that I can be loved, instead of being abandoned and forgotten, and can only stay where I am and wait.

Jiang Pingyang did not say these last words, but he believed that Xue Xue would understand.

Rather than using pale words, Jiang Pingyang is more willing to spend his whole life proving his commitment.

“Yeah.”

After finally calming down the turbulence in his heart, Xue Xue did not expect that Jiang Pingyang suddenly knelt down in front of him.

She almost guessed what the man was going to do at once, but when Jiang Pingyang took out the square box tightly wrapped in red velvet from his pocket and opened it with his other hand, she still couldn’t help but exclaimed.

A sparkling, neatly cut heart-shaped diamond ring lay quietly in the center.

It was not the largest diamond Xue Xue had ever seen, but it had the most beautiful and touching shape.

She covered her mouth, feeling tears welling up in her eyes.

“This…”

“I want to propose to you, Xue Xue.”

The man kneeling on one knee had his back straight.

“Are you willing to give me a chance? A chance for me to accompany you throughout your life and give you happiness.”

“I know that maybe I haven’t done my best yet, but I will try my best for the rest of my life to present the best version of myself to you.”

“As long as you are willing to give me a chance, Xue Xue.”

Jiang Pingyang said and took out the ring.

In the man’s hands, a faint rose-pink halo seemed to flow out of the originally pure and flawless color.

“Although I seemed successful, glamorous, and had an enviable background in the past, I was actually full of insecurity and low self-esteem, especially when it came to relationships.”

“No one taught me love, not even my parents gave me a feeling… that maybe I didn’t deserve to be loved.”

“Until I meet you, Xue Xue.”

Jiang Pingyang’s voice was steady and deep, but Xue Xue could hear the turbulent undercurrent hidden under the calm surface, as well as an almost inaudible tremor.

“From the first time I met you, life seems to have changed.”

“I don’t know how to describe this wonderful feeling, but…Xue Xue, it’s you who made me feel love, and it’s you who made me know how to love.” Jiang Pingyang paused here and took Xue Xue’s hand.”It’s a lie to say you don’t care about the past.”

As soon as Jiang Pingyang said these words, Xue Xue’s body became stiff.

But Jiang Pingyang’s next actions miraculously calmed down the fear that had been hidden in this body for a long time and finally broke out of the cocoon.

He kissed Xue Xue’s arm.

The thin lips are filled with fire, melting the ice.

“But I won’t dwell on the past, Xue Xue. Just like I have always told you, I only think about the present and the future.”

“There is your present and our future.”
