After Breaking the Persona, I Reach the Peak of My Life-Chapter 908 - 897: Ji Han and Xia Shi

Leaning against the railing of the courtyard, Bi Xia slightly raised his eyebrows and looked at Ji Han leaning against the car. With a snap of his fingers, all the street lamps along the road in front of the villa lit up, allowing both their faces to appear in each other’s eyes.

Ji Han wasn’t surprised by how Bi Xia managed to light up all the street lamps at once, but instead, he gazed deeply at Bi Xia’s face.

The young man’s delicate features had a touch of gentleness, with a faint hint between his brows and eyes, starry eyes slightly raised with a touch of frivolity, the tear mole beneath his eye stood out under the light, making him appear enchanting. Yet Ji Han could see the young man’s hidden fangs beneath his calm exterior in those dark pupils.

The readiness to act and ferocity when facing threats were unmistakable. Ji Han thought if he answered in any way that didn’t satisfy the young man, the young man would definitely take action mercilessly.

Ji Han looked deeply at Bi Xia and suddenly said, "You really look just like your mother when she was young."

Bi Xia, at this time, changed his previous aggressive stance towards Ji Han in front of Xia Shi, and smiled lightly, "You flatter me. However, if I remember correctly, in my mother’s memory, after you parted when you were young, you never met again."

"That’s right," Ji Han didn’t hide it, "After we parted, she was in Qing City, and I was in Beijing. Until today, this is truly our first reunion."

"Oh?" Bi Xia raised an eyebrow, "Truly? That’s quite a clever choice of words."

Ji Han laughed openly and said, "I have never told anyone, but considering you are the biggest obstacle to me bringing the beauty home, it seems you have to be the first."

Listening to Ji Han’s words, Bi Xia remained silent, simply looking at Ji Han indifferently. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"When Uncle Xia left with Ashi, Ashi was around ten years old, but at that time I was already seventeen," Ji Han smiled slightly, "I am seven years older than your mother, so perhaps she has forgotten, but I remember vividly."

"When I was young, I vowed to my father that I would marry Ashi when I grew up. Perhaps back then they all thought it was a joke, but I already understood right from wrong and knew what position Ashi held in my heart, so I always carefully protected my future little wife."

At this point, Ji Han slightly lowered his gaze, "But later, Aunt Xia passed away, and Uncle Xia left Beijing with Ashi without any warning, leaving overnight, causing quite a stir in Beijing at that time."

"Many people searched for Uncle Xia’s whereabouts, but no one found him. It wasn’t until Uncle Xia reached out to my father that I learned Uncle Xia had taken Ashi to Qing City."

Bi Xia looked at Ji Han, "You have never been to Qing City."

This statement wasn’t a question, but a declaration.

Ji Han smiled slightly, sighing, "Yes, I have been there before."

At that time, he was about to enlist in the army. After all, in his youth, everyone had moments of confusion, and he always had Ashi on his mind, so he could no longer bear the pain of seeing only information about Ashi without seeing the real person, especially after the information stated... Ashi was in a relationship...

Without telling his family, he went directly to Qing City. He didn’t see Ashi, but met with Uncle Xia. At that time, after knowing his intentions, Uncle Xia only said one sentence...

"If it had been a year earlier, I would have entrusted Ashi to you, but now, I’m sorry... However, I ask if one day I’m no longer around, and if Ashi is not doing well, I hope you can help her in some way..."

Xia Jingshen’s last words were lost on Ji Han at that time; in his mind, all he could think was if it had been a year earlier...

It turns out he was already too late...

When leaving, he went to Xia Shi’s school and saw Xia Shi in a school uniform with a ponytail. Ji Han finally truly saw his once and forever little wife alive and well, but... it was too late... he was too late...

Just like that, three days after he returned to Beijing, he joined the army, and from that day on, he forced himself not to think of Xia Shi, and from that day on, he never liked anyone else.
