After hearing Jing Xiâs plan, Ye Xun found his confidence again. He left Huo Sanyan in Jing Xiâs care and left for war.
After making sure Ye Xun had left, Jing Xi went to the room Huo Sanyan was staying at.
When Huo Sanyan heard footsteps approaching her, she thought that Ye Xun has returned.
âYe Xun! Donât you dare come in! I donât want to see you again!â Huo Sanyan scolded.
âCalm down, itâs me,â Jing Xi laughed.
Hearing Jing Xiâs voice, Huo Sanyan turned around. Even though she didnât say anything, it was clear from her expression that she was angry at Jing Xi too.
Huo Sanyan was furious because Jing Xi was actually the one behind everything.
âHey, donât stare at me like that,â Jing Xi laughed wryly. âI admit I was in the wrong this time. Please donât blame Ye Xun.â
âI am blaming him!â Huo Sanyan scolded. âLook at what he did to me? Look at my scars! And look at how he put me in the hospital! Even if I had nine lives, it wouldnât be enough!â
Huo Sanyan started to count all the wrongdoings that Ye Xun had committed.
âI know what he did was wrong, but werenât you the one who always said that we should look for the reasons?â Jing Xi smiled. âWhy do you think Ye Xun still does all of that even after breaking up? He couldâve found himself a new girlfriend and lived the rest of his life with her. Instead, he chose to do things just for you in secret.â
âHow should I know?â
âBecause he loves you,â Jing Xi said as she took Huo Sanyanâs hand. âHe has been waiting for you, do you know that? He told me that he wasnât going to marry anyone other than you and that he was willing to sacrifice everything just for you. Do you think you can even find another man like him who is willing to give up everything for you?â
â...â
Huo Sanyan was stunned as she tried to process what Jing Xi had said.
âI know that heâs the impulsive type, that he does things without thinking too far ahead,â Jing Xi continued. âBut I can tell you that heâs only like that when heâs with you. Have you ever seen how he goes to war? How decisive and powerful he is? Only you can make him weak and worried about everything. And whyâs that? Because he was afraid that you might leave him. In the end, how a woman acts can always change a man. If you give him reasons to trust you, then heâll be confident. If you give him reasons to be courageous, then he wonât fear anything.â
After hearing what Jing Xi had to say, Huo Sanyan lowered her head and didnât say anything.
All she could think of was the days she had spent with Ye Xun for the past few years. Now that she thought of it, Ye Xun had been giving all he could for the relationship while she was just trying to avoid responsibility.
She realized she was being too selfish and had never admitted that she was in the wrong.
