Chapter 735: Chapter 735: Death Exemption Token (1)_1

After consoling Song Youman, Xia Wan’an had the waiter bring a pot of warm water. She patiently waited for Song Youman to take a few sips before she started to recount the whole story, hiding nothing.

"...I wanted to discuss everything with you prematurely, but it all happened too suddenly, Youman. I didn’t dare to call you, afraid that Han Jingnian would intercept the call. Even today, I contacted you only using someone else’s phone..."

"Youman, I really owe an apology to you and not only you, but also my parents and my brother... They would definitely be upset, wouldn’t they? I saw my brother today and couldn’t even keep eye contact with him. I was afraid that I would have burst into tears then and there... They all must harbor some resentment against me from the bottom of their hearts..."

Xia Wan’an’s eyes became moist again, "Youman, I called you out today for two reasons; first, to let you know what actually happened, and second, to ask you a favor: could you explain things to my parents and my brother, and tell them not to worry about me... You’re the only one I can ask for help, and you’re the only one I can truly trust..."

"Wan’an, don’t worry. I know what to do. I’ll go see my parents tonight and on my way, I’ll swing by your house to explain everything..."

"Remember to apologize on my behalf... and tell them that as soon as I have the chance, I’ll go and apologize in person..."

"Don’t worry, I’ll certainly apologize for you and take the blame. I’ll even take punishment for you if need be!"

When Xia Wan’an heard this, she glanced at Song Youman’s belly, "In the past, the punishment might have been possible, but not anymore... they can’t bear to do it now... You have a Get-out-of-jail-free Card..."

As she said this, Xia Wan’an reached out and rubbed Song Youman’s pregnant belly, "Have you calculated your due date? Do you know if it’s a boy or a girl? What were the results of your prenatal screening?"

"The due date is at the end of March...The prenatal screening results were all good... As for whether it’s a boy or a girl, I don’t know, and I didn’t ask the doctor. Either way is the same to me..."

"Yes, you will love them equally..." As Xia Wan’an said this, she felt a movement against her palm. She looked up, overjoyed, "The baby moved! The baby just kicked me..."

"When the baby didn’t move, I was always hoping for some activity, but now that the baby is frequently active, I hope for some quiet moments. When the baby gets excited, it really hurts..."

As Song Youman was speaking, she noticed that Xia Wan’an was lost in thought, staring at her belly.

She knows Xia Wan’an, she knows her so well, that she could make out what Xia Wan’an was thinking just from her subtle reactions.

Was Xia Wan’an looking at her growing belly and thinking about her own inability to conceive?

Knowing how much Xia Wan’an loves Han Jingnian from the journey they’ve walked together, Youman knows better than anyone... hence, she can empathize the most with Xia Wan’an’s anguish.

Before, she thought Xia Wan’an was foolish for silently loving Han Jingnian; later, when Xia Wan’an married Han Jingnian and he disregarded her completely for two years, she thought Xia Wan’an was more than just foolish. Now, that she had faked her death and left Han Jingnian because of her infertility, she felt Xia Wan’an was the biggest fool of all.
