Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife novel Chapter 1446

Chapter 1446: Chapter 1447: Seeking Refuge

Cheng Su looked at Liu Wenjing. If she remembered correctly, wasn’t the woman before her not yet thirty this year? Yet she looked like a woman in her forties. It seemed that the year in the cave hadn’t brought her much joy.

Indeed, after all, eloping with her uncle-in-law, the internal pressure must have been much greater than that of ordinary people.

Logically speaking, even if her mother was against her remarrying, or even forbade it, when it comes to getting married, who can stop it? If Liu Wenjing wanted to remarry, in terms of emotions, principles, and law, no one could stop her.

If she were a bit more heartless, she could take the child and leave, or just run away herself. Who would be able to do anything to her? Why carry a lifetime of shackles and guilt?

Of all people, why choose her uncle-in-law? And if she claimed it was for love, why then did her face look so haggard?

"Last month, Jin Sheng fell ill with pneumonia, and we spent all our money on treatment. And this month, there has been continuous heavy rain on our side, flooding the cave, leaving us no place to go. We didn’t dare go home, so we thought of coming to you, cousin, and seeking refuge..." Deng Weixia finished speaking, then lowered his head, clasping his hands together.

Cheng Su noticed a scar on the back of his hand, fierce in appearance, likely from hunting in the mountains.

"How did you get here?" Cheng Su asked.

"We sold some old goods and mountain goods, just barely enough for the travel expenses." Deng Weixia looked up at her quickly before lowering his head again.

Cheng Su couldn’t describe how she felt. She remembered this young man as timid, yet she couldn’t believe he dared to elope with a child, and now, they even had a child together.

Looking at him now, he was still the same person, yet more worn.

It’s no surprise, having done such a thing, that they could live with peace of mind; that would not be human.

If they dared to do it, they should have the ability to bear the consequences.

"What do you plan to do now that you’ve come here? What’s your plan moving forward?" Qi Taiguo asked with a stern face.
