Chapter 427 The Legendary Fiancee
She let herself calm down a bit from the tense emotions before continuing, "As for the second point you mentioned, I can explain it. You know about my family situation.
My dad has a friend named Luo Ziming, and he has a daughter called Luo Jinwen. Previously, our families considered having us date; I think Luo Jinwen had some feelings for me, but I didn’t like anyone at that time and thought that marrying anyone would be just living life, so I didn’t object.
However, later on, after her brother Luo Fangyuan caused me harm and tried to take credit for my achievements, my grandfather fell out with the Luo Family, and our families’ relationship could never return to how it was.
After some time of treatment, the doctor said that my leg would likely never heal. Luo Jinwen got engaged to the second grandson of the Sun Family in the compound, Sun Maolin, while I was still hospitalized."

Luo Qiao said with a laugh, "So you went to Qingshan Village to heal a broken heart?"
Lu Yichen laughed immediately, "Not exactly. At that time, I retired from the military because of my injury, which I had some difficulty accepting. Plus, my dad’s handling of the situation between me and Luo Fangyuan made me discontent, prompting me to want to leave Capital City.
As for Luo Jinwen, she was close with Yiting, and I always saw her as my sister’s friend. We didn’t even spend time together alone, let alone have any special feelings for her.
But I admit, when our families initially intended to pair us up, I did not object because I hadn’t met someone I liked and thought it would be the same with anyone.
But now that I have met you, it’s different. I find my heart in turmoil. I have let go of everything from the past and am striving to make myself better, even considering planning for our future.
So please forgive that offhand remark I made to ward off others’ pestering and give me a chance. I know I am a bit older, and my leg may stay like this for the rest of my life, but I really can’t just stand back and watch you from afar.
You can rest assured, I will strive to better myself and will wait until you have entered university. If by then you still don’t find me satisfactory, I will continue to strive harder, until you are satisfied."
