Chapter 779: The long forgotten oath

The moment he lifted the red hijab, he was smiling like a child. He looked at her with a silly smile, and not knowing what to say.

He suddenly turned around and walked to the window. He opened the window, knelt, and swore to the bright moon in the sky.

“I, Pei Qinghan, swear here that in this life, I will devout myself to Wan’er. If I break this oath, the sky can strike me with lightning, and I will die with no complete soul.”

The oath that he had forgotten a long time ago suddenly sounded in his ears.

*

When the gate of the Dongfang Family Mansion suddenly opened, the guard came out quickly. He saw Pei Qinghan at a glance. He raised an eyebrow but said nothing. He just bent his waist to pay respect to his master.

Dongfang Mu strode out and saw Pei Qinghan’s bleak figure standing in the cold wind. He couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow: “What are you doing here? Are you here to come with us to the Ministry of Revenue?”

The Ministry of Revenue was a place that specializes in household registration. The paper reports to the office. Most people will not go to the office personally unless the person has a special identity.

Dongfang Mu’s identity was of course special. But now, he wants to go with Pei Qinghan to such a place, naturally, there was only one purpose. He wanted Dongfang Wan to separate from him.

Pei Qinghan also wanted to understand the reason behind this, so he blocked the gate of Dongfang Mansion early in the morning, hoping to fix this matter.

After Dongfang Mu, someone came out again, a woman wearing a veiled hat and a young lady girl with a double-haired bun.

The young lady was Bai Zhi that he has seen before. He and Dongfang Wan’s biological daughter!

And the woman wearing a veiled hat must be Dongfang Wan.

Pei Qinghan didn’t reply to Dongfang Mu’s questions. Instead, his pair of eyes stared at the woman with a veiled hat: “Wan’er, I was wrong. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have believed in that’s slut provocation. Because of that, we’ve been separated for many years. Please don’t leave me. Let’s go back, I will definitely make up for you two, I swear, I—”

“You swear?” Those eyes behind the veil were unusually bright, but there was a hint of sarcasm in that calm gaze: “Do you remember the oath you swore back then? What did you swear?”

She didn’t slap him in the face, but he felt pain in his face. It was very painful.

Pei Qinghan busily said: “Previously, I was confused. I deserve to die.”

“Then why don’t you die?” Dongfang Wan’s cold words came into his ears. It was familiar and hurtful.

He seemed to have told those words to her before.

That night, he rushed to her room in a drunken state.

He didn’t know what exactly happened. He just remembered that Dongfang Wan looked at him with a blank face. As if looking at someone she had never known. She asked, “What did I do wrong? Why are you doing this to me? Do you really want me to die?”

He replied: “Then why don’t you die?”

Then why don’t you die?

It turned out that if this sentence was said from the mouth of someone you love, it was so harsh and painful.

From that day on, Dongfang Wan stopped looking at him or talking to him.

When Dongfang Wan saw him in a daze, she continued to say: “That day, when you said this to me, I tried to survive because I cared about my father. My body kept thining but I couldn’t help but survive. But you, Pei Qinghan, who are you worried about? Why don’t you die once we divorce?”

Pei Qinghan opened his mouth but didn’t utter a word. Facing Dongfang Wan’s accusation, he couldn’t say a word. The wrong things he did and the wrong things he said have now become his retribution.
