Chapter 426: Chapter 428 Hard to Let Go
Qin Hao was silent for a few seconds. From Du Wanrou’s tone and words, he could tell that she probably wasn’t lying to him.
However, Du Wanrou’s words, “I didn’t do anything to betray you,” left Qin Hao with mixed feelings.
Is this really fair to Du Wanrou?
Hearing Qin Hao’s silence, Du Wanrou cried and pleaded, “Qin Hao, where are you? Can we meet?”
Qin Hao took a deep breath and said, “I’m at Keldun Hotel, room 1803, near your school. I’ll wait for you there.”
Feng Xiangyi’s face lit up with happiness, and she hurriedly said, “Wait for me, I’ll be right there.”
After hanging up the phone, Qin Hao walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked out at the scenery.
His heart slowly calmed down as he thought about how he would face Du Wanrou.
About seven or eight minutes later, the doorbell rang in the room.
Qin Hao opened the door, and there stood Du Wanrou, still carrying the things she had bought.
Her eyes were red, and two clear trails of tears were visible on her face.
Seeing Qin Hao, her tears couldn’t be held back any longer. The items in her hand fell to the floor as she rushed forward and held Qin Hao tightly.
“Things aren’t like you imagine. I didn’t mean to deceive you. I won’t dare to do it again; I was wrong,” she said.
Seeing her cry so sadly, Qin Hao also felt upset.
But he didn’t wrap his arms around Du Wanrou, and she could feel it, which made her heart panic even more, clinging to him and crying.
After a while, Qin Hao gently pushed her away, picked up the things from the floor, and closed the room’s door.
Seeing Qin Hao’s calm gaze that made her heart tremble, Du Wanrou’s heartbeat slowed, and she stared straight at Qin Hao.
Closing the door, Qin Hao said to her, “Sit down, Wan Rou.”
She sat down on the armchair, and Qin Hao sat on the edge of the bed looking at her. Seeing Du Wanrou’s tearful expression, he couldn’t bring himself to say what he had intended.
Du Wanrou looked at him and asked, “Did you come to the Federation to see me?”
Qin Hao nodded.
Du Wanrou turned to look at him and thoughtfully said, “I don’t know. When you didn’t answer my calls just now, I found it hard even to breathe.”
Qin Hao: “I’m sorry, girl.”
Snuggled up in his arms, Du Wanrou asked gently, “Will you marry me in the future?”
Qin Hao: “Yes. When do you want to marry me?”
Laughing softly, Du Wanrou said, “I want to marry you right now.”
Qin Hao teased her by pinching her petite nose, “You haven’t even met my parents, and you already want to marry me? What if they don’t agree?”
Du Wanrou’s heart suddenly lifted, “Do Uncle and Aunt know about us?”
Qin Hao: “Of course they do, but they haven’t met you yet, and they are unsure.”
Du Wanrou: “Then, do Uncle and Aunt agree to us being together?”
Laughing, Qin Hao said, “They seem to disagree.”
Du Wanrou: “Ah? What should we do then?”
Qin Hao: “Once they meet you, they should agree. Where else could they find such a gentle, virtuous, and properly beautiful daughter-in-law?”
With a blush on her cheeks, Du Wanrou said, “Stop it, you’re just trying to scare me. When I return home, can you take me to meet Uncle and Aunt?”
Qin Hao nodded, “Mm, sure. They’ve been wanting to meet you for a long time.”
Du Wanrou: “I should be able to return by the end of January. Oh, Qin Hao, what do you think about opening a roast duck restaurant here?
I’ve surveyed the market here, and their roast duck is not as good as ours. I want to open our own roast duck restaurant. What do you think?”
Smiling, Qin Hao said, “Why not? People in the Federation have a high standard of living, high per capita income,
and while there are not as many people as in Xuan Country, they have more money. We can set a higher price as long as it’s delicious and there are no quality issues. It shouldn’t be difficult to become popular here.”
[I have to attend my cousin’s child’s twelve-day celebration. Everyone has already gone, and I hurried to write this chapter for fear of being scolded for being slow to update. I’m leaving now, and the second update might have to wait until the afternoon around three or four o’clock. There’ll still be four updates today, just maybe later. I hope you can understand.]
