Addicted to Love, Mr. Fu’s Newly Married Wife

"Fu Yanchen, listen to me. Deep down in your heart, you don't really love me. You just feel guilty about the misunderstanding seven years ago, and you want to alleviate your guilt by making it up to me. That's all. Your feelings for me are not pure love."

There was a barely perceptible tremor in Xu Xiaoxiao's voice, but her eyes were unusually firm.

Fu Yanchen's eyes flashed with panic. He held Xu Xiaoxiao's hand tightly, as if he was afraid of losing something: "Xiaoxiao, it's not like that. Let me explain. From the first time I saw you, when your father regarded me as someone he could entrust his life to and handed you to me, I had already decided to spend my whole life protecting you. So I chose to keep you instead of Nan Weiwei because I had you in my heart and I wanted to give you a home."

"But, Fu Yanchen, have you forgotten? When I needed your trust and support the most, you chose to give up and believed Lu Jingjing's lies instead of me. Your feelings for me were based on control and possession from the beginning. You never really believed in me."

Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes were slightly red, but her tone was unusually calm.

Fu Yanchen was anxious. He almost knelt down and begged Xu Xiaoxiao for forgiveness: "No, Xiaoxiao, I really am not like that. I admit that I did make mistakes in the past. I misunderstood you and hurt you. But I have regretted it and I have been trying to make up for it. Do you know? Back then, I was ready to propose to you. I wanted to give you a formal promise and a home that belongs to us."

Xu Xiaoxiao shook her head gently, her eyes showing both helplessness and relief: "But, in the end, you chose to send me to prison, didn't you?"

"Xiaoxiao, if I hadn't done that at the time, you would have died. You should know the Lu family. I can't protect you every day. If I'm not careful, they will take your life."

"What about my kidneys?!" Xu Xiaoxiao suddenly raised her voice, her eyes filled with anger and despair. She pointed at the person in front of her and said excitedly, "Who are you? At that time, I thought you were possessed by another body. I couldn't believe that you were Fu Yanchen. If it was really Fu Yanchen, how could he believe that ridiculous reason? Didn't you graduate from the nine-year compulsory education? - Will anesthesia affect the source of kidneys? Hahaha, you believe such stupid lies. No, you know it's impossible, but you still believe it! Is it because you think I have an affair with those kidnappers? So you deliberately treated me like this and made me suffer so much pain? You are just taking revenge on me."

As she questioned, the room fell into deathly silence. The air seemed to freeze, making it hard to breathe.

Xu Xiaoxiao's voice echoed in the silence, carrying endless resentment and grievance, but Fu Yanchen remained silent, as if he acquiesced to her accusation.

The whole scene became extremely tense, and the atmosphere between the two became increasingly solemn.

"Xiaoxiao, I...I admit that I was very angry at the time, but I didn't mean to retaliate against you. I thought that the Lu family would not sue you, and you can avoid jail."

"But didn't I still stay in prison for three years? Fu Yanchen, what are you thinking? You know it very well, and you don't have to do this. I said, I have forgiven you, not because I still love you, but because I understand that everyone makes mistakes. What's important is whether you can learn from your mistakes and face your heart bravely. Your feelings for me may really be just guilt and unwillingness, not true love. So, let go, and let us both start a new life."

"Smile..."

"Fu Yanchen, I forgive you. It's not that I'm magnanimous, it's just that I've let it go. Just consider it as my repayment for your ten years of raising me. In the future, you will meet someone you like, and I...maybe I will also meet someone who truly loves me."

"Smile..."

After saying this, Xu Xiaoxiao gently withdrew her hand, turned and left.

Fu Yanchen stood there in a daze, looking at Xu Xiaoxiao's departing back, his heart filled with endless regret and pain.

Could it be that this time, he really lost Xu Xiaoxiao, and also lost the girl who was once willing to believe in him and accompany him?

Fu Yanchen had empty eyes and stood there blankly, watching Xu Xiaoxiao walking away.

His heart felt like it was torn apart, "Xiaoxiao, I will never let go, for the rest of my life..."

After talking it out with Fu Yanchen, Xu Xiaoxiao felt in a good mood. When she returned home at night, she fell asleep immediately and had a good night's sleep.

The next morning, Xu Xiaoxiao woke up feeling refreshed and energetic.

So, she went to work happily. However, when she walked into the store, she found Nan Weiwei with a sad face, as if something was bothering her. Her uncle and aunt came these two days, and Nan Weiwei did not live with her.

"Hey, what's wrong? Did you break up?" Xu Xiaoxiao approached Nan Weiwei with a gossipy look on her face and asked with concern.

Nan Weiwei shook her head helplessly and sighed, “No, Xiaoxiao, you know what? I don’t know what my parents were thinking. They actually booked the same floor of the hotel where Nan Yifeng lived, and lived right next door to him! This made it impossible for my brother and I to have a good date! Every time I stayed in Nan Yifeng’s room for a while longer, my mother would keep urging me to go back, saying that we have grown up and can’t stick together all day, it’s not good for the influence…”

Nan Weiwei felt more and more aggrieved as she spoke, with a hint of dissatisfaction and complaint in her voice.

She had been looking forward to spending more time alone with Nan Yifeng, but her parents seemed to have intentionally or unintentionally created obstacles for them.

When Xu Xiaoxiao heard this, she couldn't help but burst out laughing and said jokingly, "Oh my, so that's how it is. It seems that your parents are so cute! But then again, they are also worried that you two kids will do something inappropriate."

Nan Weiwei rolled her eyes at Xu Xiaoxiao, pouted and said, "Humph, no way! Nan Yifeng and I are just chatting and watching movies, how can we have so many messy thoughts! But my parents just don't believe us and insist on separating us. It's so annoying!" After saying that, she sighed heavily again, with a helpless expression on her face.

Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing when she heard this. She patted Nan Weiwei's shoulder and comforted her, "Weiwei, this is a sweet worry for you. But your mother is doing this for your own good. After all, at your age, parents always pay special attention to reputation and influence, and they don't know that you are... in a relationship."

"But, Xiaoxiao, you don't know that Nan Yifeng and I truly love each other. We just want to spend more time with each other and get to know each other better. Now that my mother is like this, we have to be sneaky even when we meet, like thieves." Nan Yifeng made a bitter face and looked worried.

Xu Xiaoxiao thought about it and gave Nan Weiwei an idea: "How about you try going to a different place for your date? For example, go to some place your mother doesn't often go, or just take a short trip, which can both relax you and avoid your parents' sight."

Nan Weiwei's eyes lit up, but she was a little hesitant: "This is a good idea, but where should we go? Besides, it would be terrible if my mother found out. And I seriously suspect that they already know, but they just don't say it on purpose."

Xu Xiaoxiao smiled and shook her head: "Weiwei, you have to believe that true love will always find a way out. You can start with small things, such as going to some cafes that you don't usually go to, or going to the library to read books and enjoy your world for two. As for traveling, it won't be too late to find a suitable time to go after you have made plans. The most important thing is that you should keep in touch and work together to find a way to solve this problem. Don't worry, I'm in the store."

Nan Weiwei's mind suddenly became clear after hearing what Xu Xiaoxiao said. She hugged Xu Xiaoxiao gratefully and said, "Xiaoxiao, you are really my good friend. Thank you for giving me such a good idea. I will call Nan Yifeng now to see if he has any good ideas."

Seeing Nan Weiwei excitedly running to make a phone call, Xu Xiaoxiao was happy for her.

She knew that as long as two people truly loved each other, there would be no difficulties that could not be overcome.

As for herself, although the problems between her and Fu Yanchen have not been completely resolved, at least she has taken the first step and bravely faced her feelings.

Next, no matter what the result is, she will accept it calmly. Only by truly facing her own heart can she find her own happiness.

After a while, Nan Weiwei came back with a dejected look on her face...
