C241 I'll Win My True Love's Life
Look at this proud old man, the once mighty general, at this moment, the legend of the business world put down all of his glory... All of his pride was the tears of a lonely old man who had made the wrong decision.
No wonder Pei Luoluo had never seen her grandmother smile after being married for so many years. No wonder when her grandmother was 13 years old, she rejected Grandpa Xiao so much. No wonder when she clung onto Xiao Yichen, her grandmother started to hate her. She didn't even want to see her.
No wonder, when her grandmother knew that she was going to marry Xiao Yichen, her resolute tone was filled with anger.
It turned out that it was because of Grandpa Xiao. It was because of Grandma's love for him. In the end, her hopes for him were shattered in an instant. The hatred they had for each other all year round had turned into the toughest weapon to stab and hurt the other party. It had cut off all their thoughts and turned them into hatred.
Pei Luoluo knew that this kind of man that her grandmother had been so obsessed with for the rest of her life should have been beautiful and even unforgettable.
"Grandfather, did you ask Xiao Yichen to marry me because of the guilt you felt for my grandmother? Although I know that you might be unhappy if I said that, I really can't think of any other reason to make an ordinary woman like me. A billionaire who can marry a billionaire who is worlds apart from me. "
After all, this was the love between his grandmother and Grandpa Xiao. Even if it caused many unresolvable regrets later on, it should not be repaid to Pei Luoluo.
It was not that she was pretending to be obedient, but that she knew her own weight better than anyone else. She would never believe that it was because of her persistence to wait for him, and that she had moved Xiao Yichen from beginning to end. She also didn't think that Xiao Yichen would only marry her because he kept his promise, or because he felt that she was different from the others.
She only believed that even if they were not well-matched, they would still have to stick close to each other and not throw a pie in the sky for no reason.
Moreover, she did not have such good luck.
However, Pei Luoluo's doubt was after Old Master Xiao's silence, and then she gently shook her head.
"This is only one of the reasons. The most important reason is that you have 12% of the shares I gave you in the Xiao's. This is the congratulatory gift that I gave you when your mother was carrying you. As half of the betrothal gift of our Xiao family's granddaughter-in-law, the other half... I will give you the other half of the gift when my grandson is born. In other words, if you marry into the Xiao family, you will become one of the four major shareholders of the Xiao's. If you can get a man and a woman for the Xiao family, your shares will be about the same as Yichen's. "
When Xiao Feng mentioned this topic, his eyes suddenly lit up. A faint smile appeared on his lips as he looked at Pei Luoluo with a profound look. It seemed to be a huge contrast to the disappointment on his face just now.
"Therefore, Xiao Yichen marrying me is the same as stabilizing his position in the Xiao's. If we husband and wife work together, we will have the final say in the Xiao's. After that, he will be able to do whatever he wants. There will be no worries, no more interference from the directors of the consortium. " When Pei Luoluo said these words, there was a hint of desolation in her tone. In the end, the mystery in her heart was solved, and only Li Shang was left.
"In other words, if he did not have you, you would be his greatest enemy. You would also be someone who could endanger him at any time." Xiao Feng continued, his tone was still indifferent, and the smile on his face was also indifferent. It was as if all of this was fate to him, and he had never thought of changing it.
So today, on the day Catherine appeared, he showed Pei Luoluo's value to her, gave her courage, gave her the right to compare with Catherine, and gave her the right to not shrink back.
"Grandfather, a person who fell in love with his daughter will not be able to achieve great things in the end. If Grandfather did not separate from Grandmother back then, perhaps you would have lived an ordinary life. In a person's life, bread and love rarely share the same fate. Because of this, everyone worked hard to obtain one of them. They would think of a way to get the other one. However, the chances of success are often very slim. "
Pei Luoluo's hands that were hugging the album were also standing in front of her chest. Her bright and clear eyes were somewhat misty.
"Grandfather, Luo Luo is very grateful for your hard work. But now, the Xiao's cannot continue to be independent. They also need external help to expand their economy. It's not that I don't know anything, it's just that I don't know much.
Love isn't everything, and it's not the only thing that people want to pursue in their lives. I once thought about the reason Xiao Yichen married me, but now that I know it, there's nothing to worry about anymore.
I love him. It doesn't matter whether it was in the past or now. In the future, when I am by his side, I will bring out my greatest value. But if one day I become his burden... I will also give up without hesitation, just like how my grandfather let my grandmother go back then."
This secret memory room contained all the memories of Old Master Xiao's life, but it also became the only heart door that he could not let go of in the cage.
She did not want to be trapped in it forever like Xiao Feng. She would suffer for her entire life and blame herself for the rest of her life.
She only wanted to use the years that she could have to protect her love with sincerity.
Of course, she wouldn't say these words to Xiao Feng. She only expressed her attitude. She would not threaten or force him. At the same time, she would also say it to herself. When it was time to let go, she could not be soft-hearted and could not turn back.
"No, child, what grandpa wants to tell you is... Although a relationship could not accommodate three people, if one side showed weakness first to show that they were inferior to the enemy... Even if he stands at the highest point, he will still become a betrayer. The person who won might not be glorious enough, but he could win the life of his true love. It is also a form of glory."
Pei Luoluo understood the meaning behind Xiao Feng's words. However, there were many things that did not fulfill one's wish. Who would know what to do next and what path to choose? This kind of feeling, sometimes, even the person involved could not make a decision.
After exiting the room, Pei Luoluo went downstairs to the living room and found that everyone had returned to their own rooms. There was no one in the empty living room, including the servants who seemed to have gone to work. She was left alone as she walked past the large marble floor tiles. It was also because she was wearing a pair of shoes. There was almost no sound.
Xiao Yichen was also nowhere to be seen. He probably left with Catherine first.
Pei Luoluo thought in her heart and could not help but reveal a bitter smile on her face.
"It's rare that the moonlight is not bad today. Can you give me a face and follow me for a month?" The voice beside her ear was very soft, as if it came from the main door.
Pei Luoluo took two steps forward and saw Xiao Yimo with his arms crossed in front of his chest. The silver mask was covered in a halo under the moonlight. At this moment, he was tilting his head to look at her. His pale blue eyes were like the dark blue sea, and he couldn't see the bottom.
