Rebirth: Regaining Joyful Moments-Chapter 1206 - 1208: Dark Circles

"Yicheng, you’re so kind." Xu Nianhua tightly wrapped her arms around his waist and slowly began to speak of her past life: "In my past life, I didn’t know you. My second brother had an accident and passed away on a construction site during the summer of ’79. My elder brother and sister-in-law never got married, and there were no children. My parents..."

Thinking of her parents, Xu Nianhua felt a pain that made it hard to breathe.

She choked up several times, while Pei Yicheng felt heartache and guilt, regretting why he hadn’t been by her side. Several times, he wanted Xu Nianhua to stop talking, but he also wanted to know how much suffering Nianhua had endured in her past life.

Hearing Xu Nianhua mention that she had given blood to Gu Mingzhu multiple times, her elder brother was schemed against and eventually gone, and her parents were burned in a fire, only to find out the truth in the end that the enemy was actually someone she had always thought of as family, Pei Yicheng’s hatred for the Gu Family reached its peak.

Fang Yue went to jail, Gu Hai lived every day drunk, Gu Mingzhu married an old man, now so sick, there weren’t many days left for her. He always felt the Gu Family’s current fate was quite tragic.

But now, he felt it far from tragic enough!

What they had done to Nianhua, the retribution they were receiving was not even one-tenth.

"Nianhua, it’s all in the past. From now on, I’ll always be by your side, no one will hurt you." Pei Yicheng held her tightly, afraid she would suddenly disappear. Suddenly, he nervously asked, "Nianhua, will you..."

"No, no, surely the heavens couldn’t bear it and specifically compensated you with one life. This life, you will surely be happy till old age, with plenty of children." Pei Yicheng’s comforting words were not only meant to soothe Xu Nianhua but also himself.

"Yicheng, I’ve been back for six years now, so don’t worry." Xu Nianhua was quite open-minded; every day now, she lived was extremely happy.

Xu Nianhua yawned and shared her deepest secret with Pei Yicheng, then started to feel sleepy.

Pei Yicheng gently lulled her to sleep, watching her sleeping face, reluctant to close his eyes, afraid that once he opened them, his beloved wife would disappear.

"Nianhua, if I could, I truly wish to return to your past life to protect and love you." As Pei Yicheng thought of this, a powerful desire arose in his heart, if he couldn’t protect her, at least he could punish the Gu Family!

"Yicheng, just yesterday Nian’an was the groom, so why are your eyes so dark-circled?" Su Lie was up early, exercising in the yard. Seeing Pei Yicheng’s dark circles, he muttered, "What’s wrong with all of you? Did you all become thieves last night or what?"

"Lie, is there anyone else with dark circles?" Pei Yicheng’s heart moved as he inquired.

"Su Yan, he came back very late yesterday, woke up this morning, and just sat there." Su Lie pointed to the corner of the yard at the chair, where Su Yan had been sitting all morning, not saying a word no matter what he was asked.

"Oh." Pei Yicheng said as he walked straight toward Su Yan.

Su Lie curiously followed and asked, "You guys, are you hiding something from me?" Su Lie looked at Su Yan’s dark circles and then at Pei Yicheng’s dark circles. If they weren’t hiding something from him, his name could be written backward!

"Big brother, I..." Su Yan’s voice was hoarse as if shattered.

Su Yan sat down beside him, poured some water, and handed it over: "Call me big brother, and don’t hide anything if something’s up. Are you having relationship issues with Li Xiuying?"
