Chapter 497 - 497 498 Mrs. Liang (4)_1
?Chapter 497: Chapter 498 Mrs. Liang (4)_1 Chapter 497: Chapter 498 Mrs. Liang (4)_1 Jing Haohao looked into Liang Chen’s deep and unfathomable black eyes, his handsome and striking face, suppressing the unease that had just surfaced in her heart, and casually asked, “Didn’t you have something to tell me?”
Jing Haohao’s recent words were so harsh, showing no mercy.
What he thought was, if you really love a woman, words alone aren’t enough. Instead, you should marry her openly, making her name and your name, under the protection of law, stand side by side.
But she didn’t want to marry him at all, she didn’t care for him, didn’t care for “Mrs. Liang” title, what she wanted was a legitimate status for the child in her belly.
If it wasn’t for the child in her belly, her wish would still be to get as far away from him as possible, forever.
Those deeply affectionate words he had thought of in the study, that swirled around in his heart and throat, just wouldn’t come out.
She had made it clear that she didn’t believe in superficial sweet talk, she wanted solid guarantees.
Even if he did say it, she probably wouldn’t take it seriously.
Such deep affection, yet it’s so hard to articulate.
Turns out, when you truly love someone, the bitterness in your heart leaves you speechless. Sweet words are mostly spoken to unrelated people.
Liang Chen felt a heavy blow crushing his heart, causing pain and sourness. He remained still, watching Jing Haohao with a calm face.
There wasn’t much he feared in his life, but now, he was afraid that his heartfelt love would be rejected by Jing Haohao.
He used to be full of confidence, now… he had none.
But if she doesn’t love him… So what?
Even if they are indeed marrying because of the child, he would accept it. As long as they are legally married, she would be his legal wife.
She might not love him now, but he could try his best. He could wait until she falls in love with him a year from now, or the year after that, or five years later, ten years later, or twenty years later…
Once married, they would have to stick together for a lifetime. Even if she never loved him in life, after death, they may be buried in the same grave. In the underworld, he would still love her eternally. If that too fails, then in the next life, and the life after that, forever and ever…
With that thought, Liang Chen blinked and looked at Jing Haohao with a sincere and solemn gaze. His voice was faithful and earnest, “Haohao, I’ll take responsibility.”
Jing Haohao lowered her eyes, recalling Shen Liangnian who had also said the same words to her with such a serious expression. But the man who promised to take responsibility for her, didn’t he end up with other women?
Jing Haohao pursed her lips and said in a calm voice, “Liang Chen, you don’t need to give me an answer in such a hurry. You can tell me when you’re completely sure.”
Liang Chen fixed his deep gaze on Jing Haohao, still with the serious tone of their previous conversation: “Indeed, there’s a lot to be confirmed. Haohao, can you tell me now, what kind of wedding ceremony do you like? Chinese-style or Western-style?”
The confirmation Jing Haohao referred to pertained to Liang Chen’s family, but he earnestly began to plan their wedding.
“When do you want to get married? Shall we pick an auspicious date soon? Otherwise, you might start showing, and it won’t look good in a wedding gown.”
