The president's wife wants to run away
Chapter 49 Regaining Confidence
Chapter 49 Regaining Confidence
Outside the window, thousands of lights are lit, each one represents a hope. Where is my hope? Zhong Yuxuan, he is my only hope, but this hope has now left me bruised and battered.
After Qin Xue left, I locked myself in my room and stayed awake all night. When the sun rose, I looked at my haggard self in the mirror and suddenly felt strange. The optimistic and cheerful Li Luoxue seemed to have disappeared, replaced by a woman with scars all over her body and dim eyes.
No, I can't be defeated like this! I still have dreams, I still have family and friends who love me, I can't give up on myself for someone who is not worthy.
I washed my face, changed into a light sportswear, and prepared to go out for a run. While running, I kept thinking about the problems between Zhong Yuxuan and me. I admit that I did hide my background before, but I never thought of deceiving him. I love him, so I am afraid of losing him. I am afraid that he will dislike me after knowing my true identity.
However, the truth will eventually come out, and my lie was finally exposed. I understand that Zhong Yuxuan needs time to digest this fact and also needs time to re-examine our relationship.
After coming back from running, I received a call from Qin Xue.
"Luo Xue, are you okay? Zhong Yuxuan has been looking for you. He is very worried about you."
When I heard Zhong Yuxuan's name, my heart couldn't help but tremble.
"I'm fine, tell him I'm fine, don't worry about me."
"Luo Xue, you..."
"Qin Xue, I have something else to do. I'll hang up first."
I don't want to hear any more news about Zhong Yuxuan, at least not now. I need time to sort out my thoughts and make myself stronger.
In the next few days, I began to devote myself to my work. I studied hard and continuously improved my business ability, hoping to prove myself with my own strength.
I know that Zhong Yuxuan has been watching me silently. Every time I work overtime until late at night, I can see his car parked downstairs of the company. I know that he really wants to come to me, but he finally holds back.
His silence made me more determined. I wanted to prove to him that I was not a dodder who only relied on men, but that I could also be an independent and shining woman!
I finished an important project that day and was in a very good mood. After get off work, I decided to go to the mall and buy myself a gift to reward myself.
When I passed by a coffee shop, I saw a familiar figure. It was Zhong Yuxuan.
He sat by the window with a cup of coffee in front of him, staring blankly out the window, wondering what he was thinking about. His face looked haggard, with a layer of blue stubble on his chin, and he looked exhausted.
My heart suddenly ached. I took a deep breath and told myself not to be soft-hearted. What does his current state have to do with me?
Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I heard a familiar voice calling from behind: "Luo Xue!"
I stopped but didn't look back.
Zhong Yuxuan walked quickly to me, his eyes full of guilt and self-blame: "Luo Xue, I'm sorry, I..."
"You don't have to say sorry to me," I interrupted him, "You didn't do anything wrong."
"No, I was wrong," Zhong Yuxuan's voice was low and hoarse, "I shouldn't have doubted you, and I shouldn't have spoken to you in that tone. I was just... too afraid of losing you."
I looked at him, and a soft spot in my heart was touched.
"You know what? Actually, my father also knows my life experience," I said calmly, "He knows that I am not his biological daughter, but he has never despised me. He loves me as if I were his biological daughter. I once thought that you would accept everything about me, including my past, just like my father did."
Zhong Yuxuan was stunned. He didn’t seem to have expected that my life experience would be like this.
"Luo Xue, I don't know..."
"You don't have to explain," I shook my head, "I understand how you feel. It's just that I need some time and space to think about our relationship."
After that, I turned around and left.
"Luo Xue!" Zhong Yuxuan wanted to catch up, but was stopped by someone.
"Mr. Zhong, please stay."
It’s Qin Xue.
I looked at her with gratitude, then walked away without looking back.
In the following days, I still devoted myself to my work, but there was always a stone in my heart, which made me feel suffocated.
That day, I was working overtime in the office when I suddenly received a call from Zhong Shuhao.
"Luo Xue, are you free now? I want to talk to you."
His tone sounded calm, but I knew he must have something important to tell me.
I came to Zhong Shuhao's study, he motioned me to sit down, and then made a pot of tea.
"Luo Xue, I have been reflecting on myself during this period," Zhong Shuhao looked at me with a loving look in his eyes, "I realized that I have always been too strict, both to you and Yuxuan. I always wanted to train you to be the best, but I ignored your feelings."
I listened quietly and didn't say anything.
"I know that my bias has hurt you," Zhong Shuhao continued, "and I'm sorry for my behavior."
I looked up and looked at this father who had always cared for me since I was a child, and my eyes couldn't help but become moist.
"dad……"
"Luo Xue, I know everything about you and Yu Xuan," Zhong Shuhao patted my hands, "I believe that you two truly love each other. I hope you won't give up your love because of my mistake."
"Dad, I..."
"Luo Xue, go and pursue your happiness," Zhong Shuhao said with a smile, "Dad will always support you."
I nodded, and finally couldn't hold back my tears.
Walking out of the study, I saw Qin Xue standing at the door.
"How is it? What did your father say to you?" Qin Xue asked with concern.
"Qin Xue, thank you," I hugged Qin Xue, "Thank you for always being by my side and encouraging me."
"Silly, we are best friends," Qin Xue patted my back, "I believe that you and Zhong Yuxuan will be happy."
I looked into the distance, my eyes firm and full of hope.
Maybe, there is still a chance between Zhong Yuxuan and I...
Walking out of the study, I felt relieved, and the long-suppressed haze in my heart was swept away. My father's words, like the warm sun in winter, warmed my heart. I knew that I should cheer up and pursue my own happiness.
Qin Xue gave me a big hug and said with a smile, "I knew that uncle would understand you."
I nodded, took a deep breath, and said, "Qin Xue, you are right. I can't be depressed anymore. I want to learn business knowledge, improve my abilities, and make my own contribution to the Zhong family."
Qin Xue's eyes lit up and she said excitedly, "That's great! I know a very capable business management consultant. I can introduce him to you."
I held her hand gratefully and said, "Qin Xue, thank you for always helping me without hesitation."
"We are best friends!" Qin Xue winked mischievously, "You, don't be polite to me."
With the help of Qin Xue, I began to systematically learn business management knowledge. Every day I immersed myself in various books and cases, trying to absorb new knowledge. Although the learning process was hard, I enjoyed it. I seemed to have found a new goal and direction, and I was full of motivation.
At the same time, Zhong Yuxuan has been paying attention to me silently. He knew that I had started to learn business knowledge, so he often asked the company's management to explain to me various aspects of the company's operations, and also specially arranged for me to participate in the discussion and decision-making of some projects.
I know that Zhong Yuxuan is using his actions to prove his change to me. He is no longer as overbearing and strong as before, but has become more considerate and respectful of my ideas.
One evening, I was working on a business plan in my study when I heard a knock on the door.
"Come in," I said.
The door opened, and it was Zhong Yuxuan. He walked over to me with a cup of hot milk in his hand and said softly, "Luo Xue, go to bed early, don't get too tired."
I looked up and saw his sincere eyes, feeling mixed emotions. I took the milk and said softly, "Thank you."
Zhong Yuxuan sat down opposite me and looked at me quietly. After a long while, he said, "Luo Xue, I know I did a lot of wrong things before and hurt you. But I hope you can give me a chance to make up for my mistakes, okay?"
I lowered my eyes and said nothing. To be honest, my heart had begun to waver. I felt Zhong Yuxuan's change and growth, and his sincerity also touched me.
"Luo Xue..." Zhong Yuxuan wanted to say something, but I interrupted him.
"It's getting late. You should go back and rest early." I said, "I still have a lot of work to do."
Zhong Yuxuan looked at me deeply, then stood up and left the study.
I put down the documents in my hand, walked to the window, and looked at the bright starry sky outside. My heart was full of contradictions and struggles. Should I give Zhong Yuxuan another chance?
After Zhong Yuxuan left the study, I couldn't calm down for a long time. His eyes and his tone made me feel his sincerity and determination. Maybe I should really try to let go of the past and give him a chance, and also give myself a chance.
The next morning, I got up early and took a walk in the garden. The air was fresh and pleasant, and the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, which made me feel extremely relaxed and comfortable.
"Luo Xue, you got up so early." A familiar voice came from behind me. I turned around and saw Zhong Yuxuan walking towards me.
"Good morning." I responded calmly.
Zhong Yuxuan came to my side and walked side by side with me on the path in the garden. We didn't say anything, but just quietly enjoyed the tranquility and beauty.
"Luo Xue," Zhong Yuxuan broke the silence, "I thought about it for a long time last night. I want to tell you that I love you."
His voice was low and full of charm, like a whisper in my ear. I raised my head and met his deep eyes, and a ripple appeared in my heart.
"I know I did a lot of wrong things before and made you sad. But I really know I was wrong, and I have been trying to change myself. I hope you can give me a chance to prove to you that I can be a man worthy of your love." Zhong Yuxuan's tone was sincere and his eyes were firm.
I looked at the man in front of me. His face was full of sincerity and love, and my heart seemed to be touched by something.
"Yuxuan," I said softly, "I have seen your changes, and I have also felt your sincerity. Let's let the past go, and let's start over, okay?"
A brilliant smile instantly broke out on Zhong Yuxuan's face. He pulled me into his arms and hugged me tightly, as if he wanted to rub me into his body.
"Luo Xue, thank you, thank you for giving me another chance. I promise that I will cherish you and love you in the future and will never let you suffer any grievances again." Zhong Yuxuan's voice was a little choked, and I knew that he was really moved.
We hugged each other tightly, feeling each other's warmth and love.
In the distance, Zhong Shuhao was standing by the window, watching us hugging each other in the garden, with a relieved smile on his face. He knew that his son had finally grown up and learned to cherish and love.
"Butler, go and get ready. I'm going to hold a grand celebration party for Yuxuan and Luo Xue. I want everyone to know that they are back together." Zhong Shuhao instructed the butler beside him.
The butler nodded and turned to prepare.
Zhong Shuhao looked at the two happy people in the garden, his heart full of expectations. He believed that their future would be even better.
The sunlight shines through the French windows, filling the entire room and illuminating the haze in my heart. Zhong Yuxuan's love is like a ray of light, dispelling all the anxiety and fear in my heart. I know that my life will no longer be confused, because I have him, and he will be my eternal support.
A few days later, the Zhong family villa was decorated with lights and was bustling with activity. In order to celebrate the burying of the hatchet between Zhong Yuxuan and I, Zhong Shuhao specially held this grand party. Guests gathered, toasts were flowing, and laughter echoed in every corner of the villa.
I was wearing a champagne-colored dress, standing next to Zhong Yuxuan, feeling the envious looks from all around. Zhong Yuxuan was wearing a black suit, which made him look even more handsome and tall. He held my hand gently, and his eyes never left me.
"Are you nervous?" He leaned over and whispered in my ear. His warm breath sprayed on my earlobe, making me blush and my heart beat faster.
"Not bad." I tried to suppress my inner excitement and answered softly.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything." He gave me a reassuring look, then took my hand and walked to the center of the dance floor.
The melodious waltz sounded, and I gently put my hands on his shoulders and danced with his steps. His hands were warm and strong, as if they passed on infinite strength to me. Our eyes met, and at that moment, I seemed to see our happy future.
"Luo Xue, do you believe me?" he suddenly asked while spinning.
"I believe you, Yuxuan." I answered without hesitation.
"No matter what happens in the future, I hope you can believe me. I will always stand by you, protect you and love you." His tone was firm and affectionate, which moved me deeply.
"I believe you, Yuxuan, and I love you too." I raised my head and bravely met his gaze. My heart had never been so firm as it is now.
At the end of the song, we held hands and smiled at each other. I know that the pain of the past has gone with the wind, and we will walk hand in hand on the road ahead.
However, in the corner of the party, there was a pair of cold eyes always watching us, full of jealousy and resentment. I know that under this calm surface, there are bigger waves hidden. Li Luoyao, I will definitely find out your secret, and I will never let you hurt me again, or hurt the people I care about.
"Yuxuan, I..." I wanted to talk to him about my plan, but when the words came to my lips, I hesitated again. I didn't know how to start.
At this moment, Zhong Yuxuan suddenly held my hand tightly. He seemed to see through my thoughts and said gently, "Luo Xue, you can tell me anything and we will face it together."
His words gave me great courage. I took a deep breath and decided to confess everything to him...
