Chapter 1932: Chapter 1931: Don’t Tell Him
“Xiaoxiao, what are you saying?”
Wen Ran frowned, looking at Bai Xiaoxiao with a concerned and worried gaze.
“Because of what his mom did to my mom years ago, there’s always been resentment in my heart. I say I don’t blame him and only blame myself, but in truth, I do resent him too.”
Bai Xiaoxiao’s voice was low and filled with a sorrow that could break hearts.
Many people don’t understand why she broke up with Luo Haofeng because of Wu Jingfang’s actions.
Many would say Wu Jingfang is Wu Jingfang and Luo Haofeng is Luo Haofeng. The grudges of the previous generation shouldn’t be borne by the next. Many blame Bai Xiaoxiao for being too stubborn.
But if we really switch roles, how many can truly not care?
If one cannot care about one’s beloved mother being humiliated like that, one is not a filial daughter.
“Xiaoxiao, it’s not your fault. If I were you, I wouldn’t be able to face him either.”
Understandingly, Wen Ran held Bai Xiaoxiao’s hand, trying to convey warmth and encouragement.
“Ranran, maybe only you can understand me. No one else can understand me, and no one can know the pain in my heart. It’s not that I don’t want to accept Haofeng, but I just can’t get past this barrier in myself. I know his mother is his mother, and he is he. I shouldn’t make him bear his mother’s mistakes, but I just can’t do it.”
Without experiencing it themselves, no one can truly empathize.
Wen Ran’s heart tightened, gently wiping Bai Xiaoxiao’s tears, her voice soft, “Xiaoxiao, we all understand you, and Luo Haofeng does too. Don’t be so sad; it’s not good for the baby.”
If that incident hadn’t happened, Bai Xiaoxiao should have been the happiest now, and she and Luo Haofeng should have been married by now.
But now, it’s really not her fault; it’s just fate playing tricks.
“He said he wants to let go and start a new life.”
At this point, Bai Xiaoxiao broke down in tears.
Even though she was the one who kept saying she wanted a breakup, who couldn’t forgive and couldn’t accept, when Luo Haofeng truly told her he wanted to let go, her heart felt like it was being torn apart.
She originally thought Luo Haofeng would give her time, would always wait for her.
Wen Ran’s eyes widened in surprise, and after a moment, she asked, “Xiaoxiao, you said Luo Haofeng wants to find his happiness. Could it be that he intends to marry Qiao Siyi?”
“Yes, actually, it was I who advised him to do so. At that time, when I urged him to find another woman, I felt pain, but not as painful as now.”
Maybe unconsciously, she knew Luo Haofeng couldn’t possibly look for another woman.
Because of her pain over the past, she acted willfully, said hurtful things, making Luo Haofeng suffer as she did.
“Now my heart really hurts, really hurts, Ranran, I really hate myself like this.”
If I couldn’t accept, why not just let go.
Feeling unable to accept yet unable to let go, torturing herself and others, Bai Xiaoxiao had never hated herself as much as she had in recent months.
Wen Ran gently patted her back and comforted her softly, “Xiaoxiao, if you can’t let go of Luo Haofeng, let’s go find him. He and Qiao Siyi aren’t together yet; there’s still time.”
Bai Xiaoxiao shook her head while crying, “It’s already too late. Qiao Siyi lost a leg for him, Ranran, did you know? Qiao Siyi came to me twice before. The first time, she told me I shouldn’t hurt Luo Haofeng because of the past.”
Due to sadness, Bai Xiaoxiao’s voice was somewhat intermittent.
Tears flowed uncontrollably, making her feel increasingly weak.
Wen Ran was shocked in her heart, looking at Bai Xiaoxiao with worry, listening to her say, “The second time she came to me was the day before she returned to B City. She said if I didn’t want Luo Haofeng, she would always be by his side, so during this time, it was her who was with Luo Haofeng.”
“Xiaoxiao, you’re overthinking it. That’s just Qiao Siyi unilaterally liking Luo Haofeng. The person Luo Haofeng likes has always been you!”
“Who knows, Qiao Siyi is indeed a very good girl, gentle, kind, and beautiful. And now, because of Luo Haofeng… he should be responsible for her. So I can’t selfishly go looking for him.”
At these words, Bai Xiaoxiao suddenly grabbed Wen Ran’s hands with anxiety, saying, “Ranran, you promise me, you won’t tell Luo Haofeng or Mo Xiuchen what I just told you.”
Wen Ran’s eyes tightened, instinctively calling out, “Xiaoxiao.”
Bai Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, trying to suppress the sadness surging in her heart, pulling up a forced smile, “In retrospect, every time he and I ended things, it was his decision. From now on, he and I really have nothing to do with each other. But it doesn’t matter, I still have my child.”
Wen Ran felt an unspeakable sadness; such a Bai Xiaoxiao made her heartache to the extreme.
Bai Xiaoxiao was right; every one of her and Luo Haofeng’s endings was decided by Luo Haofeng.
Even though Xiaoxiao was the one who said break up first this time, Luo Haofeng had initially disagreed. The past two months, he secretly came to G City to see her without letting Xiaoxiao know.
But now, he ended the relationship between him and Bai Xiaoxiao.
Wen Ran suddenly felt that Luo Haofeng was the cruel one.
No matter if he was forced to, in the end, he repeatedly hurt Xiaoxiao.
It was he who, knowing the truth, couldn’t help but approach Xiaoxiao, wanting to start anew with her. He, because of his soft heart, allowed Xiaoxiao’s mother to reveal the past to Meng Ke.
Meng Ke then had people find Qi Jianlin, leading to Xiaoxiao finding out the brutal truth of years ago.
Even though those matters had nothing to do with Luo Haofeng, Wu Jingfang was his mother—it wasn’t something that could be dismissed with a “has nothing to do with it.”
People are emotional creatures, and Wen Ran didn’t think there was anything wrong with Bai Xiaoxiao wanting to break up with Luo Haofeng because of that incident.
“Xiaoxiao…”
Wen Ran just opened her mouth when Bai Xiaoxiao interrupted her, “Ranran, I know what you want to say; in fact, this is good too. Since I can’t face him, it’s better to end things cleanly and spare everyone the sadness.”
“But you…”
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled bitterly, “I’m fine, don’t worry about me. I broke up with him a long time ago, and haven’t I been living just fine these past few months without him? I’ll continue to live well in the days to come. A person’s life isn’t just about love; there’s also family, friendship, right?”
“Alright then, as I said, no matter what decision you make, I’ll support you.”
Wen Ran knew that saying anything more would be useless; Bai Xiaoxiao was stubborn, but she was also proud. Luo Haofeng put an end to their relationship, and she wouldn’t allow herself to beg.
