My Dangerous Billionaire Husband

Chapter 944: She Didn’t Know That She’d Always Been His Only Wife

He would definitely find her.

Han Xuan thought about it carefully. He was right. He did let her get close to him during those three months, but he rarely spoke. Snd he certainly never made any promises about the future.

He never lied, it had all been her own wishful thinkings.

Han Xuan grasped the wheelchair’s handle tightly. “Ha, haha...” she laughed until tears came out of her eyes.

Zhou Yao did not look at her. He put his hands in his pockets and took a step forward, “Ye Ziyi took Zhiyuan away. I lost all the clues. At the pier, I felt like my world had collapsed. But I suddenly remembered your existence. Didn’t you contact Scorpion? Didn’t you used to be his chess piece?”

“So I was thinking about how to make you contact Scorpion by your own will. I had to break you down mentally first so that you would constantly worry about the gains and losses you’ve made. I deliberately allowed you to get close to me. I watched your increasingly arrogant expression coldly, knowing that you had taken the bait. Sure enough, you really did write a letter to Scorpion. I didn’t know how you two contact each other. You were the one who exposed it on your own accord. In half a year’s time, you were the one who helped me find Zhiyuan.”

Han Xuan’s tears fell like a waterfall. “You really... only wanted to use me? You really... don’t have any feelings for me at all?”

Zhou Yao looked straight at Han Xuan. Nothing but coldness and distance were left in his expression. “Yes.” He nodded lightly. “Now that things have come to this, you have erased the last bit of guilt I have towards you.”

Han Xuan’s heart turned cold. She knew that she and Zhou Yao were already at the ends of the Earth and there was no turning back. However, she was still unwilling to admit defeat. She smiled, “What do you want to do with Leng Zhiyuan? Bring her back?”

“She’s already pregnant with my child. It’s been eight and a half months.”

Han Xuan was shocked. Her eyes widened. “What? What did you say?” She seemed to have not heard him clearly.

Zhou Yao parted his thin lips. His expression softened as if lit by a ray of warm sunlight. “She is pregnant with my child. She became a mother for me. I am going to be a father soon.”

Han Xuan was trembling. She could not believe her ears. Leng Zhiyuan was actually pregnant. Leng Zhiyuan was actually pregnant with his child!

“Ha, haha. So what? Zhou Yao, can you bring her back? Don’t forget that I am your lawfully wedded wife, that I am Mrs. Zhou. Once you bring her back, she will be known as your mistress. The child also won’t be included in the family tree. You are a soldier, your record will be stained, and you will be criticized by others! Haha, Zhou Yao, is this what you want?”

Han Xuan felt good again after what she’d said. This was great. If she was miserable, then she would make them suffer as well. She would never give up the title of Mrs. Zhou.

Zhou Yao looked at Han Xuan’s almost twisted face and nodded slowly. “I will bring Zhiyuan back. She is my wife, in my heart, and by law. She is my wife in both senses.”

The expression on Han Xuan’s face slowly changed. She looked at Zhou Yao in a daze. “What... What do you mean?”

“The marriage certificate that we got from the Civil Affairs Bureau. Have you looked at it carefully?”

Zhou Yao’s words were like a death sentence for Han Xuan. Han Xuan widened her eyes and pointed at Zhou Yao with her trembling hands. “You... you... that marriage certificate is fake?”

“Not all the marriage certificates from the Civil Affairs Bureau are real, and not all couples who have never been to the civil affairs bureau are fake. At the marriage ceremony I had with Zhiyuan, she asked me to get a fake marriage certificate, but my father oversaw it personally. A fake marriage certificate would not be able to fool him. So Zhiyuan did not know that our marriage certificate was real and that the one you and I got was fake.”

Everything in this world had its own destiny. At that time, Leng Zhiyuan had agreed to marry him over the phone. He had indeed wanted to get a fake marriage certificate, but his father was crafty. He had eyes and ears everywhere. There was nothing Zhou Yao could do... He had no choice but to get a real one.

He did not tell Leng Zhiyuan that at that time, the two of them did not like each other. She would rather not get married. In order not to cause any trouble, he had kept the truth from her.

Later, she had a miscarriage and he asked her to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau. That silly woman really thought that they were going for a marriage certificate when in fact, he had carefully arranged a marriage proposal.

Now that he thought about it, everything that happened seemed to be predetermined. Yes, she was his only wife.

She had always been.

Han Xuan felt that her head had been hit by a heavy blow. Her thoughts were slow and chaotic. Her marriage certificate was fake?

She was not Mrs. Zhou, she was not his wife. Leng Zhiyuan was! action

“No, no, I don’t believe it... you must be joking with me. I don’t believe it... Zhou Yao, how could you treat me like this? How could you lie to me like this? ! You lied and made my life miserable!”

Han Xuan was very emotional. Zhou Yao looked at her coldly and he said slowly in a deep and masculine voice, “Han Xuan, you are always so extreme and selfish. Bring you to my house after Zhiyuan and I split was my biggest and final concession to you. I thought that you would give up after you’ve accepted the disappointments in time. But you only became more greedy. You can’t feel my pain. You will never know how much pain I felt when I watched Zhiyuan leave me.”

“Ha, haha. Zhou Yao, you said that I can’t feel your pain. How can I feel it when you’ve painted a paradise of lies for me? You never let go of Leng Zhiyuan’s hand. Even then, your heart still felt like it was cut by a knife as you watched her leaving. Zhou Yao, aren’t you being too unfair?” Han Xuan roared.

Zhou Yao was expressionless. He did not even frown. In the world of love, there was no such thing as fairness. To the woman he loved, he would be loyal and protect her for the rest of his life. If he didn’t love someone, then he didn’t love them.

That night at the mountaintop, he watched her leave in a car with his own eyes. During that phone call, he wanted to tell her loudly that he did not let go of her hand. He just needed time.

But he was ashamed...

He did not know how to tell to her. She was his wife, but he had to pick up another woman and bring her back to the Zhou family.

And now, he had said everything he wanted to say to Han Xuan. He had done the last bit of hard work that he could do. No matter what the result was, he would have a clear conscience.

He was a person who had lived his life honestly and with a clear conscience. Life was only a few decades-long. And he was a man. He did not owe anything to anyone.

The only person he was in debt to was Leng Zhiyuan, his beloved woman!

She had long known Ye Ziyi’s true identity, but she could not bear to tell him. So she dealt with Ye Ziyi alone. She had planned to wait for him until the end of it all. And now, she was pregnant with his child.

He was thankful to have such a woman in his life. Someone who loved him so much and made him love her so much.
