Chapter 285: The Happiness That Is Doomed To End

"What? Impossible!" Jiang Yubi was aghast. "Old Madam will never allow this celebration in the main residence. You know why…"

"And that's what we will change today!" Lihua proudly grinned. "Your days of living in isolation are over. It's time that you already step in the main residence and claim your rights as the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family."

She vigorously shook her head. "No, no. I-I don't want to cause any trouble. Besides, I am fine not celebrating my birthday. As long as Weizhe, you and Wei are here with me, it's enough."

"Aish!" She looked at Jiang Weizhe. "Dad, don't you want your wife to have a place in the family? Do you want to keep her separately visiting like this as if your marriage is a crime?"

His expression darkened.

Nobody was allowed to think that their marriage was a crime.

"Of course not," his voice was chilly.

"En!" Then she glanced at Wei. "Wei, don't you want your complete family too? Just like how Jiang Li and Jiang Li live with Uncle and Aunt, don't you wish that your parents would be a part of the family too?"

Wei pursed his lips and thought about it.

There was a time in the past when he would feel lonely seeing his cousins with their family while his own was messed up.

A mother who stayed separately and a father who hated his sight…

He slowly got used to the loneliness and now he felt detached whether it be Jiang Weizhe or Jiang Yubi. It would take time to bridge the gap of twenty-eight years between them, but at least this could be a small start towards it…

"En… I do."

She beamed. "See? Everybody wants it. So, Mom. Don't worry. Plus I am sure that everybody would be welcoming towards you too. It's just Old Madam who is being stubborn."

Jiang Yubi hesitated even more and more.

"I really don't know about this. Now suddenly after so many years…"

"Hehe you shouldn't think too much. Since you would be back after so many years, your comeback should be with a bang!"

Her eyes sparkled and her mind already drifted off to the banquet arrangements and decorations.

"Yes, yes, leave it to me!"

"But-"

Jiang Weizhe gently squeezed her hand and nodded. "Don't be afraid, Yubi. I am with you. Lixue is right. You have suffered enough."

Lihua solemnly nodded.

"O-okay…" she was still resistant to this idea but since everyone was insisting so much, she agreed.

Lihua brightened and quickly grabbed Wei's arm. "Come, come, Wei! We have lots of things to do and time is less!"

He nodded.

Lihua dragged Wei away with excitement and vigor in her eyes.

Jiang Yubi helplessly sighed. "You all...I am fine the way things are right now."

"Things were never fine, Yubi," he said in a slightly stern voice. "We just got used to it. But things have to change at some point."

She smiled. "En...Just like how you...for the first time in twenty-eight years allowed Wei to meet me."

He stiffened.

He pursed his lips. "It was Lixue who talked to me. But…" his gaze turned icy as he stared at her. "That doesn't mean I will forgive him for almost killing you at that time. If not for him, you wouldn't have to suffer so much."

"Weizhe, I told you many times. It's not Wei's fault. How can you blame him like that?" Her gaze dimmed. "It was because of the accident that it became dangerous."

He gritted his teeth. "Things were just fine before he came. And then suddenly, you had to go through so much just to give birth to him. I... could have lost you forever and I cannot forget that."

She sighed.

It would be difficult to convince him…

"Anyway, I wanted to ask you. You still didn't tell me about her. Why is her name Lixue? She is Song Lihua. But why is her identity different now?"

He stiffened.

She instantly sensed the change in his demeanor and squinted her gaze. "What is Wei hiding? H-Has he done something wrong?" She anxiously asked.

He kept quiet.

"Tell me, Weizhe! I am getting worried here."

"Yubi, whatever he did, he did it only so that he wouldn't lose Lihua."

"Lose her?" She blinked her eyes and then it dawned on her. She gasped. "I-Is it related to Song Jia?"

He slowly nodded.

"What!? So... Lihua knows that Wei had…"

"She was close to finding the truth. But Wei learned it before things went out of hand."

"And so?"

He hesitated and slowly confessed everything about her memory loss.

"What!?" Jiang Yubi sprang up on her feet in utter shock. "Wei erased her memories!?" Her eyes widened, feeling aghast and she stared at him in disbelief. She didn't know that this was the ugly truth behind their supposedly happy marriage.

"How could he do this? Weizhe, memory loss!? Do you know how serious this is?"

"Yubi, please don't get mad. You know the situation. If she came to know about Song Jia's death, she would hate Wei."

"And so you think that erasing memories is the solution!?" She gritted her teeth. "This is preposterous! Do you understand how precious memories are? He has no right to erase them out of his own selfishness! You have no idea that if ever her memories came back, she would hate Wei even more for betraying her like this. Things would worsen."

"That…"

"No, Weizhe! This-this cannot go on. Lihua cannot live a life like this unaware of her past. Even if the truth might hurt Wei, he would have to deal with it. It would be hard but he has to go through the pain. Taking this step is not the answer at all. He cannot live a life of illusion with her and pretend that everything is alright. Everything is...not alright Weizhe. Lihua would be heartbroken once she knows about this. This happiness is doomed to end one day."
