After coughing, Luo Yumei said a little embarrassedly, "I'm really sorry--"
Kang Xiaoqiao smiled slightly. "It takes a woman's body the most to give birth. You should rest well."
At this moment, Luo Yumei had already returned to her previous appearance. She sat there like a holy and pure green lotus. She said with a motherly and loving smile, "What does it matter if my body consumes a little? The doctor said that my child is still very healthy!"
After saying that, she said shyly, "Actually, Ah Xing didn't want me to come today. I came here secretly."
Hearing that, Kang Xiaoqiao's eyes flashed. "Mr. Ran is really attentive to you. With your current body, you should really rest."
Luo Yumei smiled with a hint of sadness in her eyes. Kang Xiaoqiao was a little puzzled. Why did Lu Yichen say that to her? Now it seemed that there was something wrong.
Luo Yumei quickly adjusted her state and said gently, "If I don't come, I'm afraid I won't have a chance."
After saying that, she held the teacup and lowered her head. After a while, when she raised her head, her eyes were filled with anticipation.
"Xiaoqiao, although we only met once, one look is enough. You're a good person."
Kang Xiaoqiao felt a chill when she heard that. It was better not to give her a good person card right away.
Luo Yumei saw that Kang Xiaoqiao did not mind, so she curled the corner of her mouth and said, "I'm just saying what I think. You may look cold on the outside, but your heart is warm. Unlike some people, no matter how they look, their hearts are cold."
After saying that, she let out a long sigh and said, "You don't have to think that I'm complimenting you. I don't need to be like this."
Kang Xiaoqiao looked at her quietly. Under Luo Yumei's saintly appearance, it was as if she had experienced the vicissitudes of time. Before Kang Xiaoqiao turned her head, Luo Yumei met her eyes and said, "Xiaoqiao, I know that Brother Yichen cares about you."
=O=
Kang Xiaoqiao was a little stunned. What did this person mean?
She really did not understand this person called Luo Yumei. Other than showing her hatred towards Lu Yichen's father and her enthusiasm towards Lu Yichen, she seemed to have the same attitude towards everyone and everything, which was that she did not have an attitude.
Her eyes were clear, and she did not seem to be a person with evil intentions. Kang Xiaoqiao still had a good eye. Otherwise, she would not have been willing to let the other party stay in her home.
However, a clear person also had desires and selfishness. The girl in front of her liked Lu Yichen. It was a sure thing, but her tone--
Seeing Kang Xiaoqiao's puzzled expression... Luo Yumei smiled and said, "Brother Yichen and I grew up together. We had the most difficult time together. At that time, we were still young and did not have the ability to fend for ourselves. I was very timid and always held him back."
"Brother Yichen always gave me the food he found. It's hard to believe, right? With our family background, who would have thought that we wouldn't even have enough to eat?"
"Whenever someone bullied me, Brother Yichen would always be the first to rush forward. Ah Xing was young at that time, and they were always beaten black and blue in the beginning."
"I was extremely scared. I would only cry at the back. Slowly, no one could bully us anymore--"
"In the past, I imagined the scene of marrying Brother Yichen countless times. I felt that the most important thing in my life was to marry Brother Yichen."
As she said this, she suddenly stopped. Then, her eyes turned red. In the end, she held back her tears and said, "I know that Brother Yichen doesn't want to marry me--"
"Once upon a time, I was unwilling. So, no matter how good Ah Xing was to me, I was indifferent to it. I just wholeheartedly wanted to marry Brother Yichen. Marrying him was my lifelong wish. Until, until he married you--"
After saying this, she gave Kang Xiaoqiao a deep look. Kang Xiaoqiao blinked her eyes and touched her nose. To be honest, the original owner had done something improper. Although it wasn't her who did it, she still felt a little guilty.
The original owner had torn apart her childhood sweetheart. Now, the original owner had come to find her, and she had to say it. Who had she offended?
But no matter what, Kang Xiaoqiao couldn't say her apology. Yes, Kang Xiaoqiao's lenient treatment of Luo Yumei had something to do with the original owner snatching her love.
Although Kang Xiaoqiao didn't think she was a good person, she was a person with principles. She had to follow the simplest and most straightforward principle.
Although Lu Yichen might not want to marry Luo Yumei, if the original owner did not get involved, who would know in the end?
Of course, this society emphasized free love. Anyone who did not get married would have a chance. However, from a moral point of view, there was still a trace of guilt.
After Luo Yumei looked at Kang Xiaoqiao, she looked out of the window. With a somewhat melancholic expression, she said, "That period of time was the darkest moment in my life. It was worse than the dark pain of being called a jinx when I was young, being bullied by others, being robbed of food and having nowhere to go."
"Because my life goal was useless. The Brother Yichen that I was going to marry married someone else. What could be more painful than this news?"
"However, misfortune does not come alone. In the past, with Brother Yichen around, everyone thought that I would eventually marry him. I had always thought so too. However, after the news of your marriage spread, my life began to become more and more difficult."
"Countless taunts, countless scorn, and countless schadenfreude played out by my side. I was even forced to marry someone else. Because of this, the dark period of my life began to repeat itself. It was just like how I didn't have my mother back then. Without Brother Yichen's care, I was quickly married off."
"It could be said that it happened at lightning speed--"
Kang Xiaoqiao did not know about this. This was also the first time she heard about it. To be honest, she felt sorry for Luo Yumei. However, individuals had their own destinies. Nothing in this world was set in stone.
Kang Xiaoqiao did not feel that she had let down the person in front of her. Therefore, she could sympathize, but she did not feel guilty.
Luo Yumei was not angry because of Kang Xiaoqiao's attitude. It was as if she wanted to find someone to confide in. Kang Xiaoqiao's patience in listening to her made her believe that Kang Xiaoqiao was really a good person.
There weren't many women in this world who could be as magnanimous as Kang Xiaoqiao. After all, her identity was sensitive, and she had caused a lot of trouble for Kang Xiaoqiao. At this moment, she finally felt relieved. No wonder Brother Yichen wanted to marry her. She was indeed better than herself.
In fact, Kang Xiaoqiao wasn't as good as Luo Yumei said. She could listen to her so patiently because she wanted to see what kind of moves she would make.
The other reason was because she was afraid that she would die soon.
