Chapter 684 Undeserving (2)
But… why was it so uncomfortable? An Qi subconsciously tightened her grip on the clothes on her chest. The suffocating pain made her unconsciously bend her waist, and her entire body became a little hunched.
Suddenly, a drop of water fiercely hit her hand that was tightly gripping the clothes on her chest. An Qi was stunned, and she subconsciously looked up at the sky.
Under the dark night sky, the full moon hung high in the sky, not blocked by the dark clouds.
An Qi turned her head in confusion and saw that the passersby around her had stopped and looked in her direction.
More and more water dripped onto the back of her hand. An Qi wiped her face as if she had sensed something. Only then did she realize that the water that hit her hand was not rain at all, but her own tears. She had actually… cried for a man!
It turned out that even though she had said that she needed to think about it, her heart had already decided on it. She liked that man, but unfortunately, they were not the same type of people. She… was not worthy of him.
An Qi bit her lip and reached out to wipe her face. Ignoring the surprised and inquisitive gazes of the passersby, she ran away. An Qi didn’t know how long or how far she had run. By the time she realized what was happening, she had already run back to the community downstairs.
Looking at the warm lights in the community, she finally felt a little calmer. The tears on her face had long evaporated during the run, leaving no trace. The only evidence left was An Qi’s eyes, which were bloodshot. Ever since she left the orphanage with An Yue, she had never lost her composure like this. Now, she was in such a sorry state because of a man she had yet to establish a relationship with. The more she lived, the worse she became.
An Qi smiled bitterly, took a deep breath, and walked home step by step. That was the only place she should be. In the past, now, and in the future.
The only difference was that she and An Yue used to be here, and soon she was the only one here. She and that man were here, but after today, she would be the only one here.
With that thought, An Qi reached out to grab the doorknob. However, just as her hand touched the doorknob, the door opened from the inside before she could insert the key into the keyhole.
At the same time, a black shadow pounced toward her from the inside and hugged her tightly.
An Qi was shocked. Just as she was about to struggle, she heard a familiar voice, “You’re finally back. If you had not shown up sooner, I was going to call the police. Fortunately, you’re back, you’re back.”
An Qi’s outstretched hand froze in mid-air. It took her a while to react. She pursed her lips and retracted her hand. She said calmly, “Mr. Nie, if there’s anything, let’s talk about it. Don’t touch me. Please let me go first.” Nie Yunfan’s body, which was holding An Qi, suddenly froze. He took a step back and his hand, which was holding An Qi tightly, moved from her back to An Qi’s shoulder, not giving An Qi a chance to escape. Nie Yunfan lowered his head to look at An Qi’s face. There was a hint of trembling in his voice. “You… What did you call me just now?”
Oh God, he finally managed to coax An Qi to call him Yun fan. Why did he go back to Mr. Nie after just going out for a meal? Oh God, please don’t play with my feelings like that! Unfortunately, God was probably busy at the moment and didn’t hear Nie Yunfan’s desperate plea.
An Qi turned her head to avoid Nie Yunfan’s gaze, she said in a low voice, “Mr. Nie, didn’t you say before that you would only stay here to avoid the limelight and leave after your parents stopped forcing you to go on a blind date? I see that you’ve been staying at my place for quite some time, and your parents haven’t come to look for you. I guess they don’t care about your blind date anymore. You should see if you have time to move things around. You’re Ah Chen’s friend. Just treat this period of time as a temporary stay at my place. I don’t want the rent or anything. Please move away as soon as possible and don’t cause me any trouble.”
Nie Yunfan was speechless. Is this the part where you chase me out?! Moreover, he was Chen’s friend, so she didn’t want the rent. In her heart, he was only Chen’s friend. He was being disowned!
This time, Nie Yunfan completely realized the seriousness of the matter, and his expression changed slightly. In a flurry, he tried to explain to An Qi, “An Qi, you… Don’t be like this. Are you angry because of what happened just now? I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I really have no idea how that woman suddenly appeared and caused you harm. I’m really sorry. But you have to listen to my explanation. There’s really nothing between me and that woman. Yes, I admit that I was a jerk in the past, and I did have a relationship with that woman. But you have to believe me. I really never touched her, and I have no feelings for her at all. Ever since I had you, I have never had any connection with other girls. I really like you, only you.” Nie Yunfan’s words were very sincere. He almost swore to the heavens.
An Qi was silent for a moment. Just when Nie Yunfan thought that she had been persuaded by him, an Qi suddenly sighed and said in a low voice, “I believe you.”
“An Qi…” Nie Yunfan was overjoyed. Just as he was about to hug her again, An Qi added, “But, you still have to move.”
“Why?!”
“There’s no reason. We don’t suit each other.”
Nie Yunfan was so anxious that his eyes turned red. He really couldn’t accept how his enthusiasm was blocked by a factor such as “suitability.”
“How could it not be? I think we are quite suitable. Do you think there is something wrong with me? Do you think I am a playboy? I promise that I have now changed my ways and will never be as stupid as before. Give me another chance, just one more time. If you have any other complaints, you can say it. I will definitely improve. Don’t sentence me to death just like that, okay?” A few months ago, if someone told Nie Yunfan that he would one day talk to a girl in such a humble manner and only asked her to give him a chance to pursue him, he would definitely beat that person up, then, he would give him two syllables. “Hehe.”
But now, he felt that as long as An Qi could change her mind, he would be willing to do anything.
If it were any other time, seeing Nie Yunfan like this, An Qi’s heart would have already softened. But after experiencing so many things today, she really couldn’t compromise with Nie Yunfan anymore.
An Qi swallowed hard, lowered her head, and said in a muffled voice, “It’s not your problem, it’s mine.”
Hearing this, Nie Yunfan was startled and asked in a daze, “What?”
An Qi took a deep breath and replied slowly but firmly, “You’re very good. It’s my problem. I’m not good enough for you…”
