Chapter 1241: Give Me a Child
Wang Xiaoqiang hopes Liu Juyi can find her other half soon and find her own happiness, but unexpectedly, she's still single after all these years, which makes Wang Xiaoqiang feel sorry for her.
As Wang Xiaoqiang's sadness grows, a flash of light in his body, condensing another Sword of Sorrowful Death, the third Sword of Sorrowful Death.
The Sword of Sorrowful Death is part of the "Rain of Sorrowful Swords", when the Sword of Sorrowful Death reaches a certain quantity, it will form Rain of Sorrowful Swords.
However, Wang Xiaoqiang is still far from forming "Sword Rain".
Wang Xiaoqiang knows in his heart that Liu Juyi's unhappy marriage is somewhat related to his brother Wang Dali's superstition and stubbornness, and to his Wang Family. Even Wang Xiaoqiang himself is somewhat responsible,
Back then Liu Juyi did say she liked him, but he dared not get involved due to societal norms and public opinion.
Now he doesn't know if Liu Juyi's situation is still related to him, so he decides to talk to Liu Juyi properly and see what she thinks.
That night.
Wang Xiaoqiang has called Liu Juyi out alone, although she hasn't been his sister-in-law for several years, Wang Xiaoqiang still respects and loves Liu Juyi,
Back then she took care of him like a brother, with meticulous care. Deep down, Wang Xiaoqiang has always considered her family, along with a hint of admiration.
So when facing her again, Wang Xiaoqiang is still a bit reserved, especially since Liu Juyi has obviously dressed up tonight, wearing a purple long dress, fresh yet a bit alluring, with mature woman charm.
At night in Hong Kong, the neon lights are splendid everywhere, the sea breeze blows, bringing a touch of coolness,
The two stroll along the street, Wang Xiaoqiang always avoiding being too close to Liu Juyi, Liu Juyi quickens her pace and walks alongside Wang Xiaoqiang saying, "Hey, why are you staying so far away from me?"
Saying that, Liu Juyi gives Wang Xiaoqiang a sidelong glance, "You know, here in Hong Kong, men and women out together, whether they're couples or not, can walk arm in arm..."
With that, Liu Juyi takes hold of Wang Xiaoqiang's arm.
"Uh, isn't this too hot..."
"Hot? I don't feel it." Liu Juyi smiles and says, "Little Qiang, I'm being a mom to Little Bao, just to let you know."
"Being, being a mom?..." Wang Xiaoqiang looks at Liu Juyi in surprise, pauses his steps.
"What's the matter? Any problem?" Liu Juyi slightly tilts her pretty face, looking at Wang Xiaoqiang with eyes full of pride and mischief.
"No, no problem..."
"Look how nervous you are, it's being a godmother. He has a real mother, if I really became his mother, wouldn't that be taking away someone's child?" Liu Juyi sighs lightly, sadness without suffering.
Wang Xiaoqiang secretly breathes a sigh of relief, being held by her like this is really a bit nerve-wracking, so he points to a café and says, "Let's go sit there."
They find a secluded spot in the café, order iced coffee, and sit there sipping slowly.
Wang Xiaoqiang hesitates for a moment, finally speaking up, "Juyi, I heard from Qiao Zhi that you're still single now..."
Liu Juyi's expression changes slightly, she raises her eyes and says, "Yes. What's wrong with being single?"
"You're almost thirty, it's time to find someone." Wang Xiaoqiang says.
"Haha, Little Qiang, you're living more and more backward, it's not like before anymore. Now being single is popular, and besides, here in Hong Kong, there are plenty of people who aren't married at thirty, unlike in Sanmiao Village where people marry before they're twenty and have half-grown sons before thirty,"
"Juyi, you're talking about me. Haha..." Wang Xiaoqiang laughs. "You're saying I'm traditional, aren't you?!"
"You're quite open to others but very traditional towards me." Liu Juyi gives Wang Xiaoqiang a sidelong glance, her face carrying a hint of grievance.
"Juyi, you know, I always respect you and consider you as family..." Wang Xiaoqiang reaches out to pat the back of Liu Juyi's hand resting on the table, comfortingly.
"I'm not your family, we have no blood relation..." Liu Juyi grabs Wang Xiaoqiang's hand in return, "Little Qiang, stop restraining yourself,"
"Juyi, what do you think? If you're really single because of me, then I'm really guilty."
Liu Juyi sighs and says, "Half because of you, half because of my personal reasons..."
As Liu Juyi speaks, she slightly bites her red lips, her eyes becoming red and looking as if she might cry, saying, "You might not know, my body is different from other women's..."
Wang Xiaoqiang knows Liu Juyi is a "White Tiger", he knows his brother abandoned her because of this. Thinking about it makes Wang Xiaoqiang curse his brother's stubbornness in his heart, which caused Liu Juyi to stay single despite being married and delays her great youth because of him.
"I... I..." For such things, Liu Juyi finds it hard to speak.
"Juyi, stop, I know about this, I asked my brother back then, he told me everything, and I scolded him back then..." Wang Xiaoqiang says indignantly, his face red with anger. "My brother is just superstitious, stubborn, don't misunderstand yourself..."
Upon hearing this, Liu Juyi is slightly stunned, her face shows shame, and she says, "Maybe your brother is right, see, after I got engaged to your brother, your parents had a car accident, both broke a leg, then your brother left for Guangzhou and worked as a laborer, and after we broke up, he suddenly became successful, and see how big his business is now..."
Wang Xiaoqiang sneers, "Juyi, there's something you don't know, do you really think my brother became successful after leaving you? You're mistaken, he had already started to prosper before breaking up, proving it's unrelated to your marriage relation, second, if I hadn't helped him back then, his business wouldn't be as good as it is now... Of course, can't deny it, my brother is a person of perseverance, willing to endure hardship, has a mind, has soul power. Otherwise, he might still be farming in the hometown..."
Liu Juyi is slightly stunned but still says, "Little Qiang, sometimes people have to believe in fate. I haven't been able to get past it since my divorce with your brother..."
"Juyi, I know you still have a shadow in your heart, fearing to be rejected by other men because of your body, actually, there's no need for it, my brother's mindset doesn't represent all men under the sky, I think if you seriously search, you can definitely find your other half." Wang Xiaoqiang says seriously.
Liu Juyi stares at Wang Xiaoqiang, silent with a hint of sorrow on her face, it takes a while for her to speak again in a very low voice, suppressed, "This kind of thing is not like other things, other things failing can be tried again, Little Qiang, can a woman's body be casually viewed like test products?"
"You can explain your situation beforehand to the other party if they want to date you, let it be, if not, forget it..."
"I, I really can't say it..." Finally, tears fall from Liu Juyi's eyes, her expression is sorrowful.
"You say I'm traditional, you're even more traditional than me." Wang Xiaoqiang holds Liu Juyi's hand, consolingly says, "Well, this is really not a difficult thing. Otherwise, I'll help you find someone..."
Liu Juyi however pulls her hand, pulling Wang Xiaoqiang's hand to her chest, Wang Xiaoqiang's hand feels her heartbeat, sensing it's fast, Wang Xiaoqiang withdraws his hand, finding it tightly held.
Liu Juyi gazes into Wang Xiaoqiang's eyes, suppressing herself, "Little Qiang, if you want to help me, give me a child!"
"This, this..." Wang Xiaoqiang suddenly becomes chaotic, if another woman had said this, Wang Xiaoqiang wouldn't be too difficult, but Liu Juyi is different, Liu Juyi is a woman he respects, always treated like family. He wishes Liu Juyi to be happy, so he doesn't allow himself to act recklessly, ruining this woman. (To be continued.
