Reborn in the Seventies: Pampered Wife, Owning some Farmland - Chapter 1088
Chapter 1088: Chapter 1089: These Words Strike at Lin Xiao’s Heart Chapter 1088: Chapter 1089: These Words Strike at Lin Xiao’s Heart Zhang Menmen didn’t speak, but her face displayed a hint of fantasy.
Yes, if they hadn’t gone abroad, if they had stayed in the country, they certainly would have had a good life.
But now everything had changed.
Nothing was the same.
She had once thought, what if they hadn’t gone abroad? Would things be different?
“Menmen, ask yourself, do you really love Lu Hongxuan? We can’t help you with matters of love.”
Love involved two people.
It wasn’t something that outsiders could interfere with.
Zhang Menmen fell silent, pondering the question. “I don’t know.”
Hearing this, as someone who had been there before, Meng Yunhan couldn’t help but recognize the indecision in Menmen’s heart.
She had never truly given up on Lu Hongxuan; the moment she heard he had come to find her, her heart wavered.
“Menmen, deep down you still have feelings for him. Lu Hongxuan was your first love and the first man you were intimate with. It’s natural that you care about him and can’t forget him.”
It was difficult for any woman to forget her first love.
Moreover, they had been entangled for ten years, during the prime of their youth.
Zhang Menmen acknowledged these words, “Hanhan, back then we all thought of you as the expert on love. We came to you for advice on such matters, and you always had the answers.”
At that time, Hanhan and the others had told her, never to go abroad, not to leave the country; because once she left, there would be no turning back.
At the time, she was already captivated by the future Lu Jianjun had painted for her, completely unaware that the mother-in-law would become such a thorn between them.
And Lu Jianjun had also said Lin Xiao was easy to get along with.
But she had forgotten, if Lin Xiao could do those things in the past, how could it possibly be easy to live with that.
“Hanhan, there’s no possibility between me and Lu Hongxuan now. When Lin Xiao hit my daughter, I retorted strongly by saying, ‘You’re the one who climbed into Lu Jianjun’s bed.’”
Meng Yunhan hadn’t heard about this incident from Zhang Menmen before, and was startled upon hearing it now.
It was a remark that pierced right into Lin Xiao’s heart.
But for Menmen to have held it in for five years before erupting showed just how significant Lu Hongxuan was to her.
“Forget the past, look forward. Lu Hongxuan couldn’t find you after searching everywhere. He’ll come to Kyoto again to block your way.” Lu Hongxuan wasn’t a fool; he would figure out soon enough where Menmen, a single mother, might have gone.
“I don’t want to see him, I will avoid him.”
But avoidance wouldn’t solve the problem.
If Lu Hongxuan hadn’t stayed in Kyoto, then why would Lin Xiao be there?
Lin Qiang hadn’t returned to the country for over a decade. She had learned from Robert that Lin Qiang was involved in that kind of business. If he ever came back to the country with that thing, she would ensure that Lin Qiang had no return trip.
“Menmen, you have a child together. Guoguo is still young now, but when she grows up a bit, she will ask about her father. Are you not going to tell her? Lu Hongxuan is Guoguo’s father. You can’t possibly expect them never to see each other.
This issue will eventually have to be confronted and resolved. You can’t escape it. If you didn’t have a child, you could choose not to see him for the rest of your life because you’re divorced, and to each other, you would be strangers. But the reality is quite different.”
Meng Yunhan clarified her current predicament to her; this matter wasn’t so simple. It wasn’t as if getting divorced and leaving meant she could draw a clear line with Lu Hongxuan.
They had a child together, and that bond could never be severed.
Zhang Menmen hadn’t considered these issues. She had only wanted to distance herself from Lu Hongxuan as much as possible, intending never to see him for the rest of her life.
