Chapter 191: We Can’t Be Together

Li Shaoling’s face dropped in disbelief. “You remembered?”

 Ji Weixi was clutching at her own hair. “I’m the daughter of your enemy… what should we do…”

 Li Shaoling, however, firmly pulled her into his arms, seething as his eyes turned red. “No one is taking you away as long as I want you.”

 Nonetheless, Ji Weixi sobbed, clutching at his shirt. “I’m sorry… I’m sorry!”

 Soon enough, she became oxygen-starved from her own sobbing and eventually fell to groggy sleep.

 Her little one came to visit, but Li Shaoling stopped him.

 “Daddy?”

 Li Shaoling crouched down to look at his little face and quietly said, “She’s not feeling well at the moment. I’ll have Aunt Miaomiao take care of you for some time. Alright?”

 This was the first time he was being so polite with his own son.

 The little one pursed his lips, unable to stay calm. “But is Mommy alright… Daddy?”

 “Nothing will happen to her as long as I’m here.”

 Ji Weixi seemed to hear someone arguing outside and she woke up.

 She sat up, took some time to adapt herself to the blinding light before wearing her shoes and getting off her bed.

 “Even if us Yu family had done your mother wrong, our families will always be enemies, and had sworn never to live alongside the Li family! Let me pass! You cannot stay with her—I’m bringing Qing’er home!”

 With that, the door was opened and Yu Qishan entered on his crutch, running into Ji Weixi just as she was about to go out.

 Taken aback for a moment, Yu Qishan emotionally grasped Ji Weixi’s hands. “Qing’er, I heard you’ve recovered your memories? Don’t you remember me?”

 Ji Weixi pursed her lips.

 She was feeling a little ill at ease even if she had regained her memories—she had lived with the Ji family for a dozen years after all.

 When she didn’t reply, Yu Qishan asked after her in great concern. “Are you better now? Does it still hurt? Should I get you a doctor?”

 Ji Weixi shook her head, and then looked up at Li Shaoling outside the door.

 He was looking back with a troubled gaze.

 Yu Qishan saw their locked gazes, and sighed as he offered them his sincere advice. “Qing’er, I know that you both have feelings for each other, but it’s impossible! Don’t you know that you were betrothed to the Su family’s boy as children?”

 “And I know you have a child with him, but we can have the boy change his name to Yu. And I will do everything I can to make up for the Li family for the grievous deeds of your father!”

 “Fate is simply not on your side. Even if Li Shaoling would accept you, aren’t you worried that he would hate you so much one day and kill you!? Your father killed his mother! Stop dreaming!”

 Yu Qishan stretched out his hand then. “Come, Qing’er, let’s go home.”

 Ji Weixi closed her eyes as tears fell. She stiffly put her hand on Yu Qishan’s palm, allowing him to lead her out of her room.
