Joey's heart was beating rapidly, and in his consciousness, it was as if he was about to be abandoned again.
"Yiyi, Yiyi, don't think about it, don't think too much." Lu Jingyun didn't know that Joey would have such a reaction. I haven't said it yet, but she would react so strongly. While remorseful and self-blame, I couldn't help but be afraid.
"Then what do you want to say?" Joey stared at Lu Jingyun's eyes, his big eyes unblinking, as if to see through the depths of Lu Jingyun's heart, not letting go of any of his reactions.
Lu Jingyun stopped talking, how could he still tell the truth?
He quickly patted Joey's back soothingly, and slowly touched her to ease her tension and fear.
"Yiyi, I just want to say that this time, it's not a group purchase ticket, it's not that cheap. I didn't expect you to be so excited. It's my fault, it's my fault, don't be angry, okay?"
Joey was buried in Lu Jingyun's arms for a long time and didn't say a word. When Lu Jingyun was worried, she finally spoke up.
"Husband, I grew up in an orphanage, you know?"
Lu Jingyun's expression became solemn, and he immediately became a little more cautious. Instead of relaxing Joey, his joking excuses sparked something deep inside her that she had never really touched.
He answered quietly, before continuing to listen to Joey speak in his arms.
"When I was six years old, I was taken back to Qiao's house, which is now the home of my adoptive parents. I was taken in the orphanage for five years. I heard that I was placed at the gate of the orphanage before I was weaned. Later, I was raised. When my parents brought it home, I lived a sound family life. Until I was in junior high school, my adoptive mother finally succeeded in getting pregnant and gave birth to my younger brother. After that, my adoptive parents put all their energy on my younger brother. I was basically A superfluous person. I knew I couldn't owe them anything, I worked part-time jobs in high school and college."
"Baby, you have suffered a lot, haven't you?" Joey said calmly, without resentment, without anger, just like commenting on the most ordinary thing.
"I don't feel bitter, I can finish college and not become a bad person in society, which is already very good." Joey laughed at himself, "Husband, I told myself to be peaceful and content, so that I can live a happier life. It's not your thing, you mustn't force it. So I had a good time at Qiao's house. But, do you know why I want to marry you so early?"
Lu Jingyun's heart was being torn apart and hurt. "I know, you want a home of your own, a warm home, no one..."
As he said that, Lu Jingyun's voice was a little hoarse because of his distressed voice, but he couldn't say what happened next.
Joey smiled and said, "Yes, a home where no one will abandon me."
This is Joey's wish, and since she met Lu Jingyun, she has already started the life she yearns for, a completely beautiful and somewhat unreal warm home.
People who know Joey will always be moved by Joey's peace and optimism. In their eyes, Joey, although a silly girl, is a little stubborn and insists on his spirit that he can't keep up with the times, but he is also a Very nice people to get along with.
However, they didn't know that there was a deep wound in Joey's heart, from the wound of being abandoned, to the wound that was neglected by the adoptive parents, which could not be healed at all. Joey could only cover up the ugly scars deeply, pretending that he was optimistic and living his life happily.
Lu Jingyun doesn't necessarily know about this, he just knows that his precious child Yiyi has suffered a lot, but he has not found the deepest scars from these sufferings.
Today, Lu Jingyun really realized that he was wrong, really wrong.
This lie shouldn't exist from the beginning, and now, he knows Joey's wound that has been covered up but still, how he can't explain it all clearly now.
Unless, her wounds can be healed, unless her abandoned heart knot can be completely untied.
At this time, Lu Jingyun became afraid. If he really told Joey now, then her insecurities and the wounds of her abandonment would be opened again. Does she have to doubt the unreality of her life with her, and thus completely collapse?
Lu Jingyun didn't dare to imagine the consequences. If he had been lucky before, he might have thought that Joey would only get angry, and they would reconcile quickly in the future, but after Joey's words today, Lu Jingyun is a millionaire. Do not dare to speak casually again.
This time, Lu Jingyun's heart was hurt so badly with Joey's words, he wished he couldn't meet her earlier, and even regretted his concealment.
"Yiyi, Yiyi, you have me, you have me. I will always be by your side, no one will let us separate."
Lu Jingyun couldn't wait to soothe Joey's heart, wanting her to escape from the sad past.
"Husband, don't leave me."
Joey finally released her fragility in front of Lu Jingyun. The pain she touched made her cry in front of Lu Jingyun.
The silent but constant tears mixed into the water and disappeared quickly, but left a deep imprint on Lu Jingyun's heart.
He could only hold Joey without suppressing her crying. The pain and vulnerability she had suppressed for so many years could be released calmly in front of him.
"I we will never be apart, never..."
In Joey's cry, Lu Jingyun kept repeating that he would not separate, as if such a constant promise could heal Joey's wounds.
After a long time, Joey's crying gradually stopped. She was soaked in the warm spring water, crying and dehydrated. Lu Jingyun hugged her thoughtfully and left the hot spring pool, sat on the rest stool beside him, and poured it for her. warm water.
"Yiyi, be good, drink some water."
Joey raised his bright red face, and his red eyes looked at Lu Jingyun's more gentle and affectionate black eyes, but the quilt poked him, much like the aggrieved little doll after being bullied.
Joey seemed a little embarrassed. He kept his head down and didn't dare to look at Lu Jingyun when he was drinking water.
Lu Jingyun had no choice but to crouch in front of her and look at her hiding little face from below.
She held her hand holding the cup with both hands and tightened it slightly.
"Baby, don't you trust me the most? I said, we won't be separated, we won't be separated. What are you worried about?"
Joey shook his head and whispered, "I believe you. Just don't scare me like that in the future."
"Okay, I was wrong this time." Lu Jingyun deeply apologized for this incident. "I originally wanted to make you happy, but I didn't expect the hot spring to be well soaked, but you have contributed a lot to the hot spring."
Joey couldn't help laughing at his teasing, flattened his mouth, and stared at Lu Jingyun fiercely.
"You made a serious mistake this time. You said, how much is the group purchase? Have you spent all your private money?"
