I BECAME THE STEPMOTHER OF MY EX-HUSBAND

 

Chapter 102 Part 1: The Grand Finale

 

^^

 

"... Before, Wangye with Wangfei Shen is only one-sided fate. After marriage, Wangfei Shen often talked to herself and felt sorry for herself. She always lived in her own fantasy, and Wangye could not stay at home, so he stayed with the army for many years, in the end, it became a habit." Gu Mingda still kept his eyes down, but the strength of his words was not vague. He said, "Wangye these years has been fighting war in all sides. His achievement can shake all the land under heaven. He is someone we, the whole army, revered to, and also the god in the hearts of Yan land’s people. When we saw Wangye suffered from such frivolous attitude in those years, us as his subordinates are very dissatisfied."

 

Lin Wei Xi sat there, almost frozen. Even though Yan Wang told her about Shen shi that day, he only briefly introduced the cause and effect. He talked more about what happened after encountering Lin Wei Xi. Therefore, Lin Wei Xi had always felt that the feelings between Yan Wang and Shen shi were naturally true. Those rumors might be exaggerated, but it didn’t affect the beauty of their small family.

 

But now Gu Mingda's words showed Lin Wei Xi a completely different image of Shen shi. How could she think that the reason Gu Hui Yan married Shen shi was largely because it was difficult to get off once you ride a tiger1. Shen shi was immersed in her own little girl's dream, and didn't care how much trouble it caused another person.

 

Although Gu Mingda couldn't see Lin Wei Xi's expression, but from the atmosphere in the room he could judge that Yan Wang really chopped off the head and the tail, omitting the most critical part. Yan Wang thought that talking about a deceased woman’s right and wrong was too low, so he only talked about himself and refused to talk about Shen shi's problems. It didn't matter. Anyway, Gu Mingda was not a gentleman, so let him talk about it. Gu Mingda knew that if this problem was not communicated, there would always be a knot between Yan Wang and Wangfei. Lin Wei Xi has the right to know the truth of this matters.

 

"This subordinates don't know how Wangye said it to Wangfei, but it will certainly not involve the details of Wangfei Shen's personality. People should respect the dead, and it may be low for this subordinates to say the right and wrong of the deceased. However, if Wangfei doesn’t know about this, afraid that she will always misunderstand Wangye. Wangye is very caring to you. This subordinates has been with him for more than 20 years and have never seen him treat any woman like this. To put it bluntly, Wangye was a victim of the previous marriage. The victim of satisfying a woman’s fantasy. He marries you, is the beginning of the true heart."

 

"This subordinates don't know what misunderstandings there are between Wangfei and Wangye, but this subordinate is insolent, still want to say a few more words on behalf of Wangye. Wangye is very sincere to you. This subordinate do not want to see Wangye's hard-won happiness to prematurely die because of some groundless reasons. Wangye is admired by thousands of people, but it was not easy for him to walk this step. His childhood was harsh, and he joined the army as a young man. After that, every day he was accompanied by war deaths. The family warmth he received can’t be said to be much, as for his wife… don’t even say it. This subordinate in place of 100000 soldiers and millions of people of Yan land ask Wangfei sincerely to take care of Yan Wang and have a good life with Wangye. This subject wait to burn the incense of eternal life every day, hoping that Wangfei and Junzhu will live long for a hundred years, in good health for a lifetime."

 

...

 

Gu Mingda had left for a long time, but Lin Wei Xi still sat in a daze, unable to recover for a long time. Rui Yang was dissatisfied with being ignored by her mother, pulled Lin Wei Xi’s collar while babbling.

 

Lin Wei Xi lowered her head to look after Rui Yang. She barely called "baby", her eyes suddenly blinked, and a tear fell directly on Rui Yang's cheek.

 

Gu Hui Yan had finished dealing with those miscellaneous matters, when he was about to enter Jingcheng Courtyard, he suddenly stopped.

 

In Jingcheng Courtyard there was those two mother and daughter. He had just finished seeing the blood, it seemed not good to go see them like this.

 

Gu Hui Yan stayed in place for a few moments, and finally decided to see them from a safe distance. After all, he promised Lin Wei Xi to go back to see her. If he didn't go, once there was another mistake she would take it out on him again.

 

But today, when Gu Hui Yan walked into Jingcheng Courtyard, he felt something was amiss. Gu Hui Yan's heart was cold and immediately strode inside. There was no lamp left in the inner room, for a while Gu Hui Yan felt panic, until he opened the curtain with force and saw the silhouette in front of the window, only then he invisibly let out a sigh of relief.

 

Gu Hui Yan’s heart get calmer, and then felt angry again: "Why you didn’t light the lamp?"

 

Lin Wei Xi sat on her side and didn't move for a long time. Gu Hui Yan gradually felt something was wrong. He stepped forward and looked startled when he saw Lin Wei Xi's face: "Are you crying?"

 

Lin Wei Xi wiped her face in a daze, "No."

 

Gu Hui Yan had long forgotten what he had come in for. He walked to Lin Wei Xi and sat down, carefully holding her face up: "What's the matter?"

 

"Gu Mingda came just now and told me something."

 

Gu Hui Yan's eyes moved, vaguely let out an "Oh".

 

Gu Hui Yan's qi training was really good, even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, his expression remained unchanged. But Lin Wei Xi already could recognize Gu Hui Yan's true feelings from his subtle expression. For example, even now, although Gu Hui Yan's expression was plain, Lin Wei Xi knew that he must have written down this matter, and he would find Gu Mingda to settle the account when he left.

 

Of course Lin Wei Xi didn't want Gu Mingda to get into trouble, so she immediately spoke for the other person: "You can't be angry at him, he is right about some things."

 

After Lin Wei Xi finished speaking, looking at Gu Hui Yan's face, she faintly felt that she was not able to help much. As soon as the chatterbox opened, the rest of the words of course were out: "Wangye, I have been indulged by people around me since I was a child, and my temperament has been nurtured to be somewhat not know the immensity of heaven and earth (arrogant and ignorant). In addition, I am competitive, what other people have I also need to have, what other people good at I will think every possible method to do better than them. I am very ambitious but also have high eyes but low hands. I also know that my personality is not very pleasing. When I first met Wangye, I was arrogant and offended Wangye a lot. After getting married I also always act willfully, letting you follow me in everything."

 

Gu Hui Yan wiped away the tears on her face little by little. Lin Wei Xi just an only daughter, and her family conditions in her childhood were not good, so when growing up she could not be indulged. The two of them knew exactly who Lin Wei Xi was talking about.

 

However, it was one thing to understand, but there was no intention to point it out. Gu Hui Yan looked calm, and the movements of his hands were also very patient: "You have never offend me. After meeting you I become happy very easily. I don't think you are spoiled. Why are you suddenly talking about this?"

 

Lin Wei Xi glanced at Gu Hui Yan with a sobbing expression: "Why you didn’t say that I am very pleasing, do you really think that I have high eyes and low hands?"

 

Gu Hui Yan paused for a while, only to realize that her previous words also had several important points. Gu Hui Yan could only say: "It’s not that you don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth, and your personality also quite... lively. Everything is just right, and those who say you are not very pleasing must be intentional."

 

Lin Wei Xi burst into laughter. She laughed for a while, and suddenly took the initiative to embrace Gu Hui Yan's neck: "My own worth, I myself understand. I am not as good as you said. If I didn't meet you, I definitely would often quarrel with my husband, and perhaps I would not become a good daughter-in-law in everyone’s eyes. All my luck is because I met you."

 

Gu Hui Yan's hand paused. For the first time in his life, his thought could not keep up with his external reaction.

 

"Do you remember the first time I saw you? You stood under the old tree in our house. There were so many people standing there, but no one could get past your graceful bearing. When I turned back, at first glance I saw you."

 

"Oh?" Gu Hui Yan slowly relaxed, with a smile in his voice, "Then how do you feel?"

 

"I thought you are not as old as the stories said. You are younger and better-looking than I thought."

 

Gu Hui Yan pinched her waist neither too light nor too heavy. Lin Wei Xi giggled, more and more calmly embraced him, and buried the bridge of her nose deeply on his collar: "Later, due to unexpected turn of events I married you. I'm afraid you will scold me, compare to my teacher when I was a child you are more fierce, but you did not. I thought you will give me cold-shoulder after marriage, but also no. You are the best person I have ever met. Just a while ago Gu Mingda told me everything about Wangfei Shen. I didn’t expect your past to be like this. In fact, I’m just jealous that she was able to participate in your youth and growth. I appeared too late. If possible, I wish I could born ten years, or twenty years earlier, so that I can meet you at the right age."

 

"There’s no need." Gu Hui Yan wrapped her waist with one hand, with a little bit of force, almost embedded her to his body, "Really not necessary, Xi'er, you are fine like this."

 

Lin Wei Xi heard the familiar pronunciation, "Xi'er," and tears suddenly couldn’t help but fell: "I’ve been through some forks in the road before, when I first said I want to marry you, there was indeed some anger, but later on no more. I have already paid the price, let's start over and live a good life with Rui Yang, okay?"

 

In his 30 years of life, Gu Hui Yan had never experienced such a touching emotion, and never had his heart this soft and painful like sinking into a big cave. She was right, anyone has a chance to start over, not to mention that she had already paid the price of her life. She was an unmarried woman, she was free.

 

The hidden barrier in Gu Hui Yan's heart also unconsciously melted. What he cared about was not her identity, but her attitude. Lin Wei Xi wished to start over, this couldn't be better.

 

"Good."

  1. Gulp. Finally everything is laid out and now the stones that were pressing down their hearts can be lifted.
    Sighs, Gu Mingda that dude really is the best - to smack all the evidence right in the FL's face to allow her to understand that the ML truly cares for her and stop her wild ruly childish acts.
    Thanks for the chapter! ❤

  3. People pointed out that LWX/GX was childish, but um, yeah, she's a child. Plus she lived two life times and was forced to grow up too fast her previous life to catch up with a grown woman in a child's body, I think she deserves to feel carefree in the 2nd one.

  4. Shen shi is really the perfect MIL for Gao Ran. Both are self-centered and delusional, doesn't know to cherish what they've got. They might have done mistakes in getting the husband but the fact remained the same..they were already married in as a consort.
    But they didn't cherish it well, all they think of is their own self and indulge their own ego.
    GCY might not be the best husband material but GR already won the status of a saviour in his life, and if she is really intelligent, she should have known that his position is not easily shaken.
    There is no reason to scheme.
    He might have guilty feelings towards GX but exactly this aspect can actually be a good thing, cos he would no longer jeopardized his marriage easily.
    But she had to scheme still and ruin her own future.
    Shen shi had gotten husband cheaply, but the husband is an upright man.
    They could have cultivated feeling well if only she is not too self-centered.
    Yanwang didn't fall in love at 1st sight with LWX either.
    He found her interesting, yes, but she is 17 years younger and daughter of his subordinate, he should have actually taken her like a daughter by norm.
    So he didn't have inappropriate thought at teh beginning.
    If not because of the rape attempt, he would have just settled her somewhere just like what she asked previously.
    She didn't plan to marry again either afterall.
    But they cultivated feelings slowly since their journey from the north.
    So...Shen shi could have done the same. Who knows?
    He also said that he tried to get along with her initially, otherwise Gu chengyao wouldn't have born, but didn't work...
    Well...with such a wife, one can imagine.
    GR should remember that it was also her own scheme who let them getting married.
    Otherwise it wouldn't be easy for Yanwamg to decline princess Shoukang.
    I am not so sure that he would dare to propose her if she didnot recommend herself first.
    She was 17 years younger afterall, he would not dare to ask. His personality would prevent him to be willful.
    He even still care to protect Shen shi's dignity.
    Gao ran Gaoran...you seek your own demise.
