This caused Qiao Shaoting to suddenly have a moment of distress.

He said, "She is a woman I will never forget in my life, but I also remember that you are now my wife."

These words were a promise to Qin Xiaorou.

He loved Qin Yu deeply, but since he was married to Qin Xiaorou, even if his wife was just a puppet, he would not betray his wife and betray his marriage.

This was the bottom line.

Qin Xiaorou was flabbergasted for a moment, then raised her eyes again and met Qiao Shaoting's eyes.

The man's eyes were deep and dark, like black holes, like whirlpools. With just one look, you would be sucked in.

"Mr. Qiao, I actually envy you." Qin Xiaorou suddenly said, "At least you and the person you love used to love each other."

Unlike her.

Although she was nominally Qiao Shaoting's wife, Qiao Shaoting had never loved her.

How she wished Qiao Shaoting would love her.

Even if it was just for one day, she would be satisfied.

But she also knew that it was impossible.

Qiao Shaoting only had Qin Yu in his heart all his life.

Only one person could live in his heart, no more others.

Qiao Shaoting gave a bitter smile.

He said, "No, I prefer not to have loved."

If he hadn't fallen in love with Qin Yu, he wouldn't have to suffer from the pain day and night now.

This kind of pain could never be relieved in a lifetime.

Qiao Shaoting stood up, "I'm going to the presidential palace."

Only then did he realize that this morning, he had spoken a little too much.

...

In the morning, Qin Xiaorou read children's books to Qiao Yaozu's child.

Although such a small child couldn't understand, since Qin Xiaorou was very idle, she held the child, reading the books.

This child behaved himself.

When Qin Xiaorou held him reading fairy tales, he was nestled in her arms, looking at the picture books with his big grape-like eyes.

Qin Xiaorou was reading a story about a prince and a princess.

It's said that in a castle, a prince and a princess fell in love.

But then the princess became seriously ill.

For fear that the prince would be sad, the princess went away from home.

And when the prince found the princess, the princess had become a corpse.

The prince was heartbroken.

He hugged the corpse of the princess and cried, telling her that the most painful thing in this world was not to see the death of the beloved, but couldn't stay with her while she was dying.

This was the greatest grief in the world.

As Qin Xiaorou read, her voice stuck. She stared at the picture book, unable to move for a long time.

The maid on the side thought Qin Xiaorou felt the story was not suitable for children, so she said, "Why children's books are all about love stories? They are not suitable for children to read."

The maid was about to take the picture book out of Qin Xiaorou's hand, "We don't read this one. I'll go and get another one."

However, Qin Xiaorou tightened her grip and did not let the maid take it away.

She looked at the maid, "Do you think this story is right?"

The maid looked at Qin Xiaorou in confusion.

Qin Xiaorou said, "I just read, the most painful thing in this world is not to see the death of the beloved, but can't stay with her while she is dying."

This was the greatest grief in the world.

The maid did not expect Qin Xiaorou to ask this question. She was flabbergasted for a moment before saying, "It does make sense, after all, at least, he could stay with her during her last days, which is a comfort."
