After Marrying the Officer-Chapter 1231 - 1230: Love’s Deadlock

"I doubt even Wang Zicheng knows about this," Huo Shiqian said. "That’s precisely why Wang Zicheng learned about Song Zhicheng’s injury."

"Naturally, he became aware that back then, Song Zhicheng had led away the assailants to save Jiang Fengqi."

"And because of the unique circumstances, no one else knew about this except the two of us, Jiang Fengqi was unaware, too." Huo Shiqian looked at Xia Chuyi, his eyes filled with meaning.

"That’s why Wang Zicheng pretended to have aftereffects, leading to their couple’s application to go abroad," Huo Shiqian concluded.

After listening to this explanation, Xia Chuyi was stunned for a moment before saying, "You mean... Wang Zicheng, because he’s afraid Senior Sister Jiang finds out about this?"

"So he pretended to have aftereffects, which naturally led Senior Sister Jiang to apply for going abroad in advance?"

Huo Shiqian didn’t answer her directly, only saying, "Everyone wants to protect different things."

Xia Chuyi understood Huo Shiqian’s meaning, but she couldn’t help but say, "Senior Sister Jiang is already married to Wang Zicheng; even if she knows about this, what difference would it make?"

At this point, Xia Chuyi believed in Jiang Fengqi.

She believed there was no way Jiang Fengqi would let the incident of Song Zhicheng saving her affect her marriage with Wang Zicheng.

After all, Wang Zicheng was also willing to risk his life to save her.

At this moment, Huo Shiqian said, "Although that’s true, if Jiang Fengqi knew about this, her heart would surely be in agony."

"Wang Zicheng wants to protect more than just their marriage," Huo Shiqian stated calmly, "What Wang Zicheng wishes to protect is Jiang Fengqi."

"He doesn’t want her to be sad," Huo Shiqian said, looking at Xia Chuyi’s somewhat worried eyes, "And that’s why Song Zhicheng, despite coming to the airport, merely watched from afar and didn’t appear before Jiang Fengqi."

Hearing this, Xia Chuyi finally sighed and said, "I understand."

Xia Chuyi felt somewhat melancholic.

This matter is indeed a deadlock.

Rationally, Xia Chuyi understood that what Wang Zicheng and Song Zhicheng did was the best choice.

Because only in this way could the harm to all three be minimized.

But... perhaps due to her pregnancy, Xia Chuyi was easily sentimental right now.

"Brother Song’s matter..." Xia Chuyi couldn’t help leaning on her husband’s shoulder, "Will it always remain unknown to Senior Sister Jiang?"

Xia Chuyi recalled Song Zhicheng going to the United States to find Jiang Fengqi, misunderstanding her situation with Wang Zicheng.

She remembered Song Zhicheng leading away the assailants for Jiang Fengqi.

And now, how Song Zhicheng hid his hand injury.

"Shiqian, to be honest, I used to think that between Brother Song and Senior Sister Jiang, Brother Song didn’t really value this relationship that much," Xia Chuyi sighed slightly, then spoke.

"So, I once thought, if they really didn’t end up together, it might actually be a good thing for Senior Sister Jiang."

"But now..." Xia Chuyi sighed again, "I never imagined that Brother Song actually..."

After pondering a bit, Xia Chuyi added, "Shiqian, do you think I’m partly responsible for this?"

"If I had returned to the Ou Family a bit earlier back then, Brother Song wouldn’t have separated from Senior Sister Jiang because of the verbal engagement..."
