My Dominant Contract Husband Won't Let Me Go

Chapter 765: Gu Ningyi, Marry Me (3)

"Mm, I promised you, so you need to get better soon. That way, I can take you to have fun wherever you want to go."

"Sister, you’re so good. If...if only I had found you earlier."

Wei Xinruo still smiled, but Dong Xin Yan felt a deep bitterness in her heart, "It’s okay. Finding each other now isn’t too late."

"Yes, it’s not too late now. It’s just... such a pity. I can’t wait until your wedding day, won’t see you in your wedding dress, and won’t get the chance to be your bridesmaid. We were supposed to be the most beautiful sisters."

Her throat felt as if stuffed with cotton, Dong Xin Yan opened her mouth to speak, but no words came out. She could only hold her hand tightly, tighter with each squeeze.

"Sister, do you know? Seeing you always makes me happy, because if I were an ordinary person, I would probably be just like you, freely doing what I want, pursuing my own love, guarding my love, then having kids with my loved one and growing old together."

"I can’t do these things, but you have, so I’ll pretend it’s my life. So, sister... you must live happily, for my share too, okay?"

"Okay, okay." Dong Xin Yan nodded quickly.

There was a fleeting brightness in Wei Xinruo’s dark eyes, but it quickly dimmed a bit. She moved her hand slightly, weakly holding onto Dong Xin Yan’s hand, her voice extremely low, "Sister, I have... I have an unreasonable request. Can you promise me?"

As she spoke, her eyes glanced at Lady Wei, who was choked with sobs beside them, and then returned to her sister, slowly parting her lips, "Can you... not be angry with Mom? What she did was very wrong, but she did it out of love for me, and she didn’t truly mean to harm you."

"Xin Ruo..."

"Sister, I’m begging you, don’t hold Mom accountable, don’t be angry with her. I’m begging you."

Lady Wei had arranged for her to be kidnapped. At first, she was puzzled, until she heard the news of Wei Xinruo’s critical illness. Then, it all clicked for her.

From the beginning, Lady Wei had never intended to acknowledge her, but acted out of false reconciliation for the compatibility of her heart with Xinruo’s, pretending to be considerate just to deceive her into coming to the United States, waiting for a chance to steal her heart.

That meant she was willing to exchange her life for Xinruo’s.

If Lady Wei had no relation to her, just an irrelevant stranger, she could understand her actions. But she was her daughter, her biological daughter, whom she bore and raised, shared the same blood with. How could she be so heartless?

Xinruo was her daughter, as was she, yet without batting an eye, her life was being calculated.

How could she not feel cold-hearted? How could she forgive her?

Dong Xin Yan bit her lower lip hard. She knew she shouldn’t be resentful at such a moment, but to forgive her so easily was something she truly couldn’t do...

"Sister, I’m begging you."

Wei Xinruo’s voice grew weaker, her tone had turned to pleading, and her face gradually lost color as life slowly ebbed away.

Dong Xin Yan’s heart was shattered, unable to hold on any longer, "Alright, I promise you."

"Thank you, sister."

Finally at ease, Wei Xinruo smiled in relief, her gaze became a little unfocused, her voice drifting, "Mom, Sister, I’m a bit tired. I’m going to sleep for a while, and when I wake up, let’s go home."
