Chapter 1105: If He Could Turn Back Time
It was already past 9 PM by the time He Xiyan returned for the castle and Xi Xi and Yuan Yuan has already turned in for the night.
The castle was very quiet and it was so quiet that the sound of a pin dropping could be heard.
He Xiyan drank a calming tonic. She had felt very lethargic recently and she didn’t have a good night’s sleep for the longest time. This was a tonic prescribed by the doctor and she had been told to drink one serving each day before she slept.
She laid in bed after she finished the tonic but the tonic didn’t seem to be very effective. She was still finding it hard to sleep and her mind ran wild with thoughts that upset her.
Her phone suddenly beeped with a message.
It was from Ye Hao. She had added both Mo Yixuan and Ye Hao back on WeChat since they were the fathers of her children, so she couldn’t possibly cut off all contact with them.
“Yan Yan, are you sleeping?” He asked.
He Xiyan thought for a moment after she read the message but she didn’t respond. She kept all contact between herself and her ex-husbands restricted to the topic of their child and wouldn’t speak to them about anything else.
Her phone soon beeped again with another message from Ye Hao.
“I’m turning in now. Have a good rest.”
He Xiyan frowned and she was left speechless.
She didn’t know why he had to tell her that he was turning in since she wasn’t interested in what time he slept or whether he could sleep at all.
She flung her phone aside and couldn’t be bothered to respond to this message.
She didn’t know that he was watching her every movement.
Ye Hao leaned against his bed’s headboard and watched the closed-circuit feed on his screen with a small smile on his face.
He might have been beaten to pulp today but he was no longer angry. In fact, he was elated because Yan Yan’s actions showed that she was genuinely concerned about him. He could tell that she cared for him.
He was thankful that he had gone to the G.o.dforsaken village today. It no longer mattered to him that he had been beaten up by Chen Jiahang.
He thought that there was still another chance between Yan Yan and himself as long as he persevered. He swore that she would return to his side.
Ye Hao felt much better as he thought about the positive developments that had been made in his relations.h.i.+p with Yan Yan. He also forgot about the drama that had taken place in his home several weeks ago. He forgot about the woman who had tricked him and about the child who had acknowledged him as his father for six months.
He slept very early that night and turned in before 10 PM. He was smiling in his sleep as though he was having a really sweet dream.
He dreamt about the happiest day of his life.
He had led the woman he loved toward a beautifully decorated stage that was surrounded by pink roses. There were tens of thousands of roses that were arranged into the shape of a heart with a huge 3D screen placed in the middle of the stage. The guests seated below the stage were clapping and congratulating them.
“Mr. Ye, do you take this beautiful, kind, virtuous, and clever lady to be your lawfully wedded wife? Will you promise to love her, to comfort her, to respect her, and to protect her like your own? Would you share and support her through the good or the bad, through rich or poor, through health or sickness, love and cherish her until death do you part?”
He could still hear the priest’s sonorous voice.
“I do!” Ye Hao muttered in his sleep.
Yes, he had been willing but he had failed to live up to his promises.
He would definitely not let her down if he could turn back time.
