CHAPTER 275

Ning Xiaozhi felt her world crumbling when she heard those words.

"It is not what you think."

Those were the words cheating would tell his woman when he gets caught with another woman. Her heart rate increased and her chest tightened. Just when she had thought someone would truly care for her and love her.

"Why did you lie to me? Don't you love me anymore?" She asked as a tear slid down her eye.

"Yes. I still love you. So please, let me explain. I just... There is no other woman in my life that I love apart from you," Ye Chaoxiang said.

"If so, then-"

"I was talking to my daughter."

GBAGHAN

"What?" Ning Xiaozhi felt confused. "Daughter? You have a child?!"

"Yes, I do have a child. She was the one I was talking to. Please believe me," he said.

"You- You? A father of a child? You are already married. So, I am your mistress," Ning Xiaozhi was struck.

She staggered a little but she quickly held the nearest wall she got in contact with. Never in a million years would she have thought that she would have an affair with a married man who already had a child at that.

Ning Xiaozhi would have laughed if someone had told her that she would become a mistress. She was not that desperate for love to the extent of having an affair with a married man.

Now she has done it. She wondered how his wife would feel if she got to know him.

"You make me a homewrecker?"

"0_0"

"What? No. I would not date. And I am not married, okay?" Ye Chaoxiang corrected her. He could not believe the words that flew out of her mouth.

"Soon you are divorced. That means your wife left you because she found out about us. So, I am the third party here? I can't and should not get involved with a married man."

"No. Stop it. Stop getting those foolish ideas into your head. Please. I am not married nor am I divorced. I have never been married," he drew closer to her.

"But... Then how do you explain you having g a child? Did you get her out of..." She did not complete her words but Ye Chaoxiang go the message.

"Hell no. She had her parents. I adopted her," he stated.

"Oh! Then, why did you have this from me? You don't trust me?" Ning Xiaozhi said with a pain-filled voice.

"Of course, I trust you. I just did not have the balls to do it. I-I was scared, okay? I feared that if I told you, this would happen," he said referring to what just happened. "I was scared that you would leave me and not want anything to do with me."

"That is true. I-"

"No. Please don't. Do not say it. I can't bear to live without you. I would be a mess if you would have nothing to do with me. Please, stay with me. Continue loving me, please," Ye Chaoxiang pleaded.

"I am sorry. I should have told you earlier. But I could not. Please understand. I love you. I only love you not anyone else. Only..."

Ning Xiaozhi jumped on him and tightly circled her hands around his waist. Ye Chaoxiang quickly regained his footing to prevent them from falling because of her force.

He wrapped his hands around her tiny frame. It felt so right. He sighed and blinked back the tears that were about to slip from his eyes.

"Do you forgive me?" He asked.

"I am sorry for doubting you in the first place. I thought you did not love me anymore. I felt insecure and let that insecurity get the best of me. I love you. I love you and I will never leave you. I am not made anymore," Ning Xiaozhi said in his embrace.

"Sigh. Thank you."

And they kissed again. This time the kiss was much slower and filled with assurance and trust and most of all... love.

"I am so glad you found out now. I feel better knowing that you know about my child," Ye Chaoxiang said after the kiss.

"Hmm. I feel so stupid for behaving like that," Ning Xiaozhi mumbled in his embrace.

"Do not be, silly. I understand what you felt. Thank God we talked things out."

"Yeah. Can I... can I see her picture?" Ning Xiaozhi asked.

"Yeah. Why not? Come with me," ge led her to the couch and opened his phone once they were seated. "Here."

"Oh wow! She is so pretty and adorable just like Bai Xiaojin," Ning Xiaozhi exclaimed.

"Yeah. Her parents had a tragic car accident when she was one year old. It was a miracle she survived. She had been in the orphanage since three. I was so bonded to her when we met. I could not bear to let her go back to the orphanage," ge explained.

"Where did she go in the first place?" Ning Xiaozhi asked as she continued to wipe the phone and admire all the pictures of Ye Lee Ai.

"She was sick and was brought to the hospital where I worked at City X. We became almost inseparable. Some people thought she was really my child. Li Fengjin and Yang Chen loved her too. Even Bai Renxiang," he said.

"Wait. Bai Renxiang knew you had a child?" She asked.

"Not really. I told her yesterday when they asked of her. But I also told her not to tell you. I wanted you to hear it from me."

"Alright. So when and where did she meet your daughter?"

"At the hospital. They shared a hospital room. Bai Renxiang's mum had to do surgery on her kidney. So, in the long run, I decided to adopt her," he ended.

"What about your parents? Did they not oppose your decision of adopting a child when you were not even married?" Ning Xiaozhi was curious.

"Nope. But they worried that I would not find a partner because of that fact. But I still wanted to adopt her. They supported me and now everyone dotes on her."

"I like her."
