The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 735: This Love Awaits to Be Remembered

Just as she was walking into the courtyard to see if Su Yaogeng and the others had finished tidying up and needed any help, Han Jing heard a sentence from afar, and immediately stopped in her tracks. Aunt Xi, standing outside the house, waved at Han Jing from a distance, indicating that someone was inside.

Han Jing walked over quietly, hid to the side, pointed inside, and mouthed the question to Aunt Xi whether Han Si Que had arrived. Aunt Xi nodded.

Han Jing shamelessly continued to stand outside and eavesdrop.

Sometimes she truly admired her father’s shamelessness. However, this was just the kind of situation to vent anger, to thoroughly annoy Han Si Que. So many years had passed, yet he still didn’t know what he truly wanted.

Clearly, it was his fault, but in the end, he still made it seem as if he were the one abandoned.

It was simply...

Han Jing held her breath and stood quietly outside, listening to the sounds inside.

And as expected, Han Si Que was once again rendered speechless by a few words from Han Siqu. After Han Siqu left the Capital City that year, he soon encountered the palace upheaval in Capital City. After the incident, as a meritorious official, he continued to enjoy the trust of the person in power, and the matters at home naturally went unresolved. Mrs. Qin eventually returned to Duke Wei Mansion to continue being Duchess Wei. Yet the spousal affection that didn’t exist between them in the first place, after such a ruckus, was even less likely to exist.

These years living under the same roof were akin to being strangers.

This kind of life was simply torture, and he didn’t know when it could come to an end.

Sometimes he really felt tired and believed his whole life was a complete mess.

Accumulated suppression over time.

Now, hearing Han Siqu’s words, was it telling him that they were to... truly become husband and wife?

The person he had yearned for all his life, finally...

At this point, Han Si Que’s heart still ached relentlessly. He actually knew that there was no going back with Su Yaogeng, but he just couldn’t let it go, even now he couldn’t let it go.

Su Yaogeng looked at Han Si Que’s eyes filled with painful struggle, ultimately leaving only a sigh.

She glanced at Han Siqu and said, "You go out first!"

Han Siqu looked at him eagerly, being driven out again?

Should he just refuse to leave?

Su Yaogeng knew exactly what he was thinking upon seeing his expression and said helplessly, "Don’t worry, I’ll leave with you."

Han Siqu left cheerily.

As he pushed the door open to leave, he thoughtfully helped close the door behind him. Turning his head, he saw Han Jing and Aunt Xi standing at the doorway, and he paused briefly before silently walking over and shamelessly stood with them properly.

Su Yaogeng looked over at Han Si Que calmly. In fact, for many years, she had not seriously looked at him. He really had aged a lot; his temples already had gray hair. Although he was only two or three years older than Han Siqu, he looked as if he were older by more than ten years.

Yet his posture was still upright, and his demeanor was still imposing.

Su Yaogeng sighed, "Ah Que, we’ve known each other for nearly forty years, haven’t we?"

She had known him since she was very young, and by now, she was over forty years old.

The sound of her calling "Ah Que" made this iron-blooded general, an old veteran on the battlefield, instantly teary-eyed.

How many years had it been? He could barely recall anymore. Twenty-six years, perhaps a little more; he wasn’t really sure.
