Wife is Fierce, Don't Mess With Her! - Chapter 790

Chapter 790: She Was Willing to Endure Whatever Consequences

“What did you talk about when you were out there?”

Qi Yuefeng knew her daughter too well. She saw her face turn pale after that conversation with Tan Yalan.

Feeling anxious, she was worried that Gu Qingjiu would get sick bottling things up in her heart, so she made her a cup of warm ginger tea.

Helian Niancheng also sat by Gu Qingjiu’s side quietly.

“Nothing.”

With the ginger tea in her hands, smoke rose from the cup. It was scalding on such a hot summer day.

It felt scalding.

Through the smoke, Gu Qingjiu seemed to see some shadows from the past, making her go into a daze.

“What do you mean by nothing? You’re getting married soon, and yet these things are happening. That older sister of yours…”

Qi Yuefeng couldn’t hold herself back from directly asking, “Is there something wrong with her head?”

Gu Qingjiu nodded in agreement, clearly distracted. “I suppose so.”

Qi Yuefeng was speechless.

She glanced at Helian Niancheng, who stood up instantly and pulled Gu Qingjiu up. “Qingjiu, come into the room. I have something to say to you.”

Qi Yuefeng also nodded, as though agreeing that Helian Niancheng should have a good chat with her daughter about what just happened.

“Mm.”

Gu Qingjiu nodded docilely, then followed Helian Niancheng into her room.

“What did that woman say to you today? Be good and tell me, hm?”

Once they entered the room, Helian Niancheng lifted Gu Qingjiu. He sat by the edge of the bed and made Gu Qingjiu sit on his lap.

He bit Gu Qingjiu’s ear and asked about what happened today in his deep, magnetic voice.

Gu Qingjiu leaned into Helian Niancheng’s neck and rubbed against it, her tone sounding muffled. “I… You mustn’t tell Mom and the rest.”

With that, she told him everything that Tan Yalan said to her.

After hearing her recount the incident, Helian Niancheng snickered. “Does she have a screw loose in her head?”

Helian Niancheng’s thoughts about this were utterly identical to Gu Qingjiu’s.

“I feel so too.”

Gu Qingjiu agreed wickedly.

“Mm, but I feel that you’ve been keeping something else from me…

Helian Niancheng ultimately asked her this.

Since the two of them were about to get married, he didn’t want other matters obstructing him and Gu Qingjiu.

Gu Qingjiu froze.

The events of the past flashed by before her one by one.

She had considered countless times whether or not to tell Helian Niancheng about these.

What would happen after she told him?

Would he find her scary? Would he not believe her?

How many people could believe something like being reborn?

But perhaps because she wasn’t in the best mood that day, she wasn’t willing for Tan Yalan’s word to bind her in heavy shackles. Yet, it did affect her thinking.

Since Tan Yalan could remember and hate her for such a thing for so many years, what would happen if she and Helian Niancheng were to become estranged because of it in the future?

“I… I’m going to tell you about a dream. A nightmare I once had.”

This memory was something she didn’t wish to recall at all. So much so that even talking about it now, Gu Qingjiu could feel tears welling up in her eyes.

With a dry throat, she slowly recounted to Helian Niancheng the past events with a heavy heart.

Perhaps he would be stunned. Or maybe he might have other thoughts about it.

But now, Gu Qingjiu no longer wished to hide it from him.

Regardless of what consequences it carried, she was willing to endure it.
