Chapter 480: A Change in Aura (1)
Although Bo Junyan was a cold person and had never been very enthusiastic toward his parents, he was someone who cared a lot about his family. He saw Ling Wei as his family. Naturally, he treated her like how he treated his family.
She was caught off guard and expressed her hope that he would lead a good life. When he got married, she would give him a great gift.
She also wanted to receive his blessings for her marriage.
Many a time, some people’s indifference wasn’t because they didn’t care, but because they didn’t like to express themselves.
This was also a common problem for geniuses.
It was just like how Bo Junyan got along with Mu Huan. If it weren’t for Ling Wei’s return, Mu Huan would not have gotten furious. Bo Junyan would have continued getting along with her most of the time. As Mu Huan said, he would at most reply with an occasional “Yes.”
He wouldn’t interact so much with her and say so much. He would only silently dote on her and let her do what she wanted to do.
“What’s wrong?” Bo Junyan, who did not get a reply, looked at Ling Wei.
After a moment of silence, Ling Wei asked, “Junyan, have you ever regretted it?”
“Regretted what?”
“Regretted breaking up with me.”
“No,” Bo Junyan replied decisively.
Ling Wei: “Bo Junyan, can’t you hesitate for a bit? It’s the most basic courtesy of a gentleman to give face to a lady!”
Bo Junyan: “...”
“My wife won’t allow me to be a gentleman to another woman.”
Ling Wei’s lips twitched slightly. “If you’d treated me like this back then, we might not have broken up!”
“Really?” Bo Junyan raised an eyebrow.
Ling Wei: “...”
Bo Junyan thought about how she had previously said that he was being so good to Mu Huan that it was making her feel unfairly treated. Hence, he said, “What I want is different. You know better than me what kind of person you are. The past is the past. Don’t mention the past from now on and don’t feel unjustly treated in your heart. I have only one wife. I naturally want to treat her well, and no one can compare to her.”
“If we were married, would you have treated me the same way?” If they were married, would he treat her so well that no one could compare?
“I won’t answer such a hypothetical question. We don’t have such a ‘what if.’” Bo Junyan stood up after saying that. “Just remember to inform me when you’ve found a good date.”
He could also tell his wife about their wedding date in advance so that she would be completely at ease.
Ling Wei did not say anything else. She just looked at his departing back and smiled bitterly.
Yes, she knew best who she was.
Even if he had treated her well back then, she might still have left.
She was a person who would not be willing to give up whatever she wanted.
Back then, Bo Junyan’s coldness and lack of enthusiasm were part of the reason for her departure. But the biggest reason was that what she wanted was different from what Bo Junyan wanted.
There was always something one wanted but could not get.
She couldn’t avoid this eventuality either. She had been born to a wealthy family and had an unlimited amount of money. Hence, she wasn’t interested in money. Instead, she was interested in her name and wanted to climb a new peak on another road. She wanted to be the wife of the political head and even the first wife!
Bo Junyan had such capabilities, opportunities, and good resources, but he was not interested in this path. He only wanted to build his business empire. No matter how much she and his grandfather objected to it, he refused to change his mind. At that time, she only wanted to take that path.
When Bo Junyan saw what she wanted, he’d asked her to cancel the engagement and go after what she wanted.
And she chose to leave as well.
