Chapter 290 The Promised One Year
Chapter 290 The Promised One Year
"Don't go, don't go..."
Song Yafei's eyes were still closed, as if she was just talking in her sleep.
I can't explain what I feel, and I can't sort out my emotions.
After she calmed down, he gently lowered her hands and feet, tucked her in, and left the room.
Back in the master bedroom, I lay down next to Xiaoxiaotian.
The next day, I was awakened by an unusual sensation on my face.
When I opened my eyes, I was surprised to see Song Yafei sitting on the edge of the bed, staring at me intently.
His expression was so focused, a deep affection I hadn't seen in a long time.
Judging from her clear eyes, she must have regained consciousness.
I was startled. Song Yafei looked away and tucked me in. "Why did you fall asleep sitting up?"
I then realized that it was already daylight outside the window. I had been looking at the little sky before going to sleep, but I ended up sitting there all night.
Because of my incorrect posture, I only felt some lower back pain.
I got up and moved around a bit, and Song Yafei suddenly leaned over and lay in my arms.
“I know you’re worried about the baby, but you also need to take care of yourself. As long as we can get pregnant with another baby soon, Xiao Xiaotian will be saved.”
When I heard her say that, I withdrew my hands, which were about to push her away, and even sighed.
Because I know that getting pregnant again is not an easy thing.
At that moment, Song Yafei suddenly raised her upper body and asked me cautiously, "Is it okay?"
I did not refuse.
My goal was to get pregnant as soon as possible, so I didn't refuse.
But this time I didn't feel well because I didn't sleep well last night and my body ached a lot.
On the contrary, Song Yafei was full of energy and took the initiative to sit on me and ride me...
As she made those suggestive sounds, I kissed her lips without a second thought, glancing at the crib beside me, afraid of waking little Tian.
Afterwards, I was exhausted, so I washed up and fell asleep in bed.
Although I could feel someone moving my arms and body, I didn't have the strength to open my eyes.
When I woke up, I found Song Yafei sleeping in my arms, her head resting on my arm.
I tried to move my arm, but Song Yafei not only rested her head on my arm, but also held my hand.
I did not get what I wanted.
This, however, woke Song Yafei up.
She turned to face me, snuggled into my arms, and whispered, "Zhang Tian, can you not leave?"
Don't go?
What does she mean?
Should we not push her away now, or should we wait until Xiao Xiaotian recovers before leaving?
I was hesitating about how to start the conversation when Song Yafei spoke up first to explain.
"I know you don't want to be intimate with me, and I can feel your resistance towards me, but it's only for a year, can you not leave?"
“We’ll disregard that agreement, and even in the future, don’t avoid me. I don’t ask to reconcile with you, but I do hope you’ll agree to let me bring Xiao Xiaotian to see you and the child.”
It seems she's already figured it out: the only way to save Xiao Xiaotian is through another child we'll conceive in the future.
I simply couldn't answer her; I couldn't go against my conscience and agree to her conditions at that moment.
After returning to the city under lockdown, I was under a lot of psychological pressure, let alone entering this villa again.
Entering this villa, which holds many painful memories for me, felt like being enveloped in a dark fog, making it hard for me to breathe.
If it weren't for Xiao Xiaotian, I think I might have run away long ago.
While I hesitated, Song Yafei sat up, turned me around, and we sat facing each other, our eyes meeting.
Song Yafei's eyes were focused and sincere. "I know you can't let go of the past, and I know I've hurt you a lot."
"I don't ask you to let go of the past and forgive me, but could we try to be a real couple for just one year, okay?"
"Let's try to leave the past behind and start over, just for one year, just this one year, is that okay?"
"Can we have the kind of married life you desire, a harmonious and warm life together, the kind of home life you want?"
May I?
I don't know if it's possible.
We never imagined that Song Yafei would beg me so humbly.
The kind of life she described is exactly what I've always wanted.
She always knew, but because of various reasons, she ruined the life I wanted.
Now she wants to give me that kind of life again, but I don't know if I can do it.
We looked at each other for a long time, and finally I nodded in agreement.
It's only been a year, which may only be the time it took for her to conceive and give birth.
I missed the birth and pregnancy of my baby, and I don't want to miss out on my second child.
Therefore, I agree.
"Didn't we agree beforehand that I would only leave after Xiao Xiaotian recovers? I won't break my promise."
Upon hearing my answer, Song Yafei's eyes showed surprise, but also self-deprecation and helplessness.
But at least I agreed.
Song Yafei reached out and hugged my neck, thanking me with delight, "Thank you, thank you for being by my side at this time. I don't feel like I'm all alone."
But I wanted to push her away. After noticing my movement, Song Yafei pleaded softly, "Don't push me away, just for a little while, just a short while."
This reminds me of when we were dating, she wasn't so assertive, and she would sometimes act coquettishly towards me like this.
My heart softened, and I let her hold me.
I kept telling myself that since I had promised to spend a year with her, I should play that role well.
Two minutes later, Song Yafei suddenly let go of me and exclaimed in surprise, "Look!"
I followed her gaze and turned around to look behind me. To my surprise, Xiao Xiaotian had already woken up, stood up while holding onto the crib railing, and looked at me and Song Yafei with a happy smile.
It's as if he's saying he's happy too.
At this moment, the room radiates a warm and beautiful light.
As I carried Xiaoxiaotian and Song Yafei followed behind us downstairs, Uncle Liu, who looked after the garden, saw us and said happily.
"Sir, Madam, come quick and see who's back."
Song Yafei and I were both a little puzzled as to who could have made Uncle Liu so happy.
I understood when I saw Aunt Lin standing at the door.
Aunt Lin stood there, with Liu Liu's grandson Jiu Jiu lying at her feet.
The morning sun shone in, and Aunt Lin and Jiu Jiu were surrounded by golden light. In a daze, I seemed to see Liu Liu.
When Liu Liu was still alive, her favorite thing to do was to follow Aunt Lin.
But I will never see Liu Liu again.
My eyes feel a little dry.
"Sir, Madam."
Aunt Lin walked towards us with a smile. When she saw Xiao Tiantian in my arms, she said happily, "This must be the young master. He looks just like our master."
Aunt Lin smiled broadly, and her words came from genuine joy.
