Chapter 205 Let Her Go
After calming down the emotionally stirred Shen Mei, Ji Wanwan spent the night by the elder’s bedside, only planning to get up and leave at dawn. When she opened the door, she found Gao Chuan still keeping watch outside the hospital room.
The man had sat in the chair all night long.
Seeing Ji Wanwan walk out, Gao Chuan slowly stood up, his voice hoarse as he inquired about the elder’s condition.
Overwhelmed by the fatigue of the night, Ji Wanwan yawned and told him that everything had stabilized. Looking at the man in front of her, she breathed a sigh of relief and softly said to him, "Come with me, I’ll tell you everything."
Ji Wanwan had not anticipated that the careless actions of herself and Gao Yu would let Shen Mei overhear them. Now that things had developed to this point, she could no longer keep silent as she had previously promised Jiang An.
The two of them went down to the coffee shop on the ground floor. There weren’t many people in the shop, so Ji Wanwan casually ordered a cup of coffee.
Gao Chuan sat opposite her, his chiseled face smeared with the exhaustion of a sleepless night, his expression cold and devoid of any emotion.
"Ask whatever you want to ask, I’ll tell you everything." Ji Wanwan sighed slightly, remembering how Shen Mei, in her emotional agitation, had slapped Gao Chuan yesterday. The man still didn’t know the ins and outs of the situation.
Upon hearing Ji Wanwan, Gao Chuan didn’t play coy anymore and threw out the question that had puzzled him all night.
"Jiang An and I... had a child?" The man cleared his throat, his voice trembling as he spoke.
Ji Wanwan avoided his gaze and did not look directly into his bloodshot eyes. She still felt a sudden pang of soreness in her heart when she brought up those past events, and she began to explain, "A few days after you went on your business trip, Jiang An was in a car accident. The driver fled the scene, and when passersby took her to the hospital, the child was already gone."
Her indifferent tone fell into Gao Chuan’s ears, causing his face to pause, a look of shock appearing in his sunken eyes, momentarily bewildered.
He had no idea that so much had happened during the days of his absence.
"Fortunately, Jiang An was lucky and wasn’t seriously injured. When she was in the hospital, she’d already thought about divorcing you. She probably felt guilty towards her family and kept insisting that I not tell you." Ji Wanwan, holding the steaming coffee cup in her hand, didn’t understand why, despite the event having happened so long ago, her eyes still filled with an acidic tinge when mentioning it.
No one could ever imagine, a lonely and helpless girl, bleeding ceaselessly into the vast night, how desperate her mood must have been.
Listening to Ji Wanwan’s words, Gao Chuan’s heart continued to ache, his chest burning with an inextinguishable pain.
He had never thought that the girl he deeply loved had suffered such unknown torment.
"Did her health recover?" The man asked with a parched throat.
Ji Wanwan heard his question and recounted the days when Jiang An, right after learning she had miscarried, was so emotionally distraught that she wouldn’t eat or drink. The girl had seemed soulless, and her body had become much thinner.
Upon hearing this, Gao Chuan felt a surge of acidity in his heart, his gaze unconsciously darkening. At the time when Jiang An needed him most, he was not by her side.
"Gao Chuan, I really don’t understand. If you didn’t love Jiang An, why did you insist on marrying her in the first place? Do you know how much she has suffered for you?" Ji Wanwan looked at the man in front of her, his face showing a pained expression.
"I still remember, once Jiang An and I were drunk, I said I’d send her home. She kept holding onto me, not letting me take her home, saying that if you saw her drinking, you would despise her and abandon her."
She didn’t know the nature of their relationship, but anyone would feel heartache seeing Jiang An act so lowly.
The words of Ji Wanwan kept reverberating in his mind, Gao Chuan tried to speak but was almost choking.
He wanted to say, he loved her. He had fallen in love with her long ago.
But now it’s clear, he had no right to say such a thing.
"Do you know? Jiang An was thinking of calling you at the scene of the car accident. She must have been afraid that she would never see you again. But what about you! You were still entangled with Song Xin. Do you know how disappointed Jiang An would be when she heard her voice?" The woman’s heart surged with indignation as she spoke about this matter.
If she were in that situation, she would have wished she could dash in front of Gao Chuan and tear him to pieces.
The man was taken aback when he heard this, and then he asked, "What phone call?"
During his business trip, he had no recollection of ever receiving a call from Jiang An, not even a text message.
Ji Wanwan hadn’t expected that he knew nothing about this. After realizing it, she sneered: "It must be one of your mistress’s tricks then."
"There’s nothing between me and Song Xin," the man interrupted her with a cold voice.
"Then why didn’t you do anything sooner? Song Xin has bullied your wife, and all you did was lose your temper at Jiang An. Do you even feel like a man?"
At this moment, Ji Wanwan was furious, thinking of all the things Song Xin had done to Jiang An made her blood boil.
"Gao Chuan, you think Jiang An wouldn’t care about these things, but after all, she is your wife. What woman would be willing to see another woman standing by her husband’s side?"
"You’ve never truly loved her," the woman said word by word, each word hitting the man sharply in the heart.
Yes, he had never truly loved her.
He had obstinately broken into her otherwise tranquil life in his own way but never considered what it truly meant to love someone.
So in the end, she grew cold-hearted and decided to leave him.
Thinking about this, the man’s chest was hit with a tide of heartache, guilt, and sorrow, causing him unbearable pain.
Ji Wanwan glanced down at the time on her watch, looked at the man who had bowed his head, and with a swallow said: "If you really care about Jiang An, hurry up and divorce her. She has already given up her own life once for you; don’t hurt her a second time."
"Please let her go."
Until the woman walked out of the coffee shop step by step, the man still sat indifferently in place.
His heart was in agony.
All along, he couldn’t fathom why Jiang An’s attitude had changed so drastically after his return from Switzerland, why she was so determined to divorce him.
Now that the mystery had finally been unraveled, he found he had completely lost any reason to keep Jiang An by his side.
He always felt that Jiang An’s desire for a divorce was tormenting him, but now it dawned on him that in fact, she was tormenting herself.
She must be feeling that she let down their child, let down Gao Chuan, let down Shen Mei and the others.
At that time, she must have felt so helpless, so in pain, she must have been regretting ever meeting him, the man thought.
After all, he had disappointed her so much.
