"Fine, let's di...Wait! What did you say?" asked Jiang Meili. Confusion was visible all over her face. She thought that he wanted divorce so what the hell he was talking about.
"Let's give our relation a chance, Meili." He waited for some time to let his words sink into her and then he continued,
"I know you are thinking why I am saying these suddenly. But trust me, I have been thinking about it for quite a long time. Initially, I only wanted that marriage for our children but when I heard about the accident, I left lost. At that moment I realized that I don't want to lose you. So Meili please give us a chance, okay?"
After conveying his feelings, Fu Zhen waited for Jiang Meili to say something.
Jiang Meili opened her mouth several times only to close it. She wasn't sure what to say. While bathing, she convinced herself that if he wanted divorce then she would agree but she never thought that he would want to start anew. She just doesn't know what to do now. So, she looked at Fu Zhen as if asking 'what should I do or say now.'
Seeing her this confused, Fu Zhen decided to speak again.
"I know you are confused. Trust me, I was also confused whether to talk to you about it or not. But when I was with Wang earlier, he said that he always feels like whatever we show is fake and I may leave him anytime and so he can't completely let go of the past and accept me.
His words hit me completely and only then I realized what if you also think that I am going to leave you and so I wanted to express my feelings."
"Okay," was the only thing that Jiang Meili said and then turned around turned off the lamp and went to sleep leaving a very confused Fu Zhen behind her.
Fu Zhen could not understand what she meant by okay. ' Did she agree to give us a chance or not? Can't she just say a few more words? How the hell can she sleep,' he silently complained about Jiang Meili a few times and then went to sleep.
However, both of them could not sleep properly. For more than half the night, they were thinking about what's going to happen the next morning.
"Daddy, wakey! Wakey! It's already so late. Come on wake up," Fu Zhen was woken up in the morning by a bunch of kisses from his daughter. Opening his eyes, Fu Zhen saw that daughter was sitting on his body and at the corner of the bed his eldest son was sitting. His face was saying how reluctant he was to be in here but still he came because of his sister.
Fu Zhen checked the room to look for his wife and when he didn't see her, he asked, "Mengmeng, where's your Mommy?"
"Mommy asked us to call you down for breakfast," replied Fu Xi Wang instead. "I really don't get it, how can a grown up man like you still sleep in. It's already 10 o'clock. Papa, grandpa and grandma already left but still you didn't wake up. Are you a child? Even Mengmeng woke up on time for breakfast."
As expected his son simply can't stop complaining. He really doesn't get it, how can a 5 year old have so much complaining.
What he didn't know was that this little guy waited to have breakfast with his father only to find out he didn't wake up and so started scolding his father as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Daddy, quickly freshen up and come downstairs," said Mengmeng and then ran out the room with her brother.
After cleaning up, Fu Zhen went downstairs to the dining room. From the dining room he could see his wife was instructing the kitchen staff.
Carrying the Xiaobao, Jiang Meili turned around only to see her husband staring at her. Flashing a smile at him, she asked, "Did you sleep well last time? Come sit and have breakfast"
"Are you going to pretend what I said last night did not happen?"
"No. Let's talk after you are done with your breakfast. I will be waiting for you in the study."
After saying that, Jiang Meili left the dining room with Xiaobao.
