“What, you’re not going to try it?”
He glanced at her, but didn’t reply. His expression was very calm.
She smiled, somewhat bitter.
“Looks like you’re still somewhat guarded against me.”
He still didn’t say anything. Instead, he stood up.
“If Mr. Helian doesn’t have time, then I’ll come and visit another day.”
After saying that, he was about to leave.
“Another day? You’re going back tomorrow, right?”
His footsteps paused. Indeed, he did not want to be alone in the room with her.
“I’ve already said that I’ll give up on you. Why are you still so wary of me? Am I really… that annoying to you?”As she said that, her eyes were somewhat red.
Hearing her slightly choked voice, he turned around. After meeting her moist eyes, astonishment flashed through the depths of his eyes.
He pursed his thin lips and said indifferently, “I don’t hate you.”
“Then why are you in such a hurry to leave? Isn’t it because… you don’t want to look at me anymore?”
“I came here because of your father. If he isn’t here, then there is naturally no need for me to stay.”
“Is there no need, or do you want to find an excuse to leave?”She slowly walked towards him, a tear streaking across her face.
Looking at the woman in front of him, Xiang Yi felt somewhat helpless.
“Why do you have to be so persistent?”
“Am I persistent? I’ve already decided to give up on you, it’s just… It’s just that there’s still a little bit of reluctance. I want to be alone with you for a while before you leave, but why are you not even willing to give me this little bit of charity? I’ve clearly… already put down my status so humbly, why are you not even willing to look at me?”
She used to be such a high and mighty woman. Because she had fallen in love with him, she had made herself so humble and unbearable.
Tears blurred her vision, and her chest felt as if it was being pricked by Needles.
But her tears could not change his calm heart.
He looked at her with a calm gaze. “How many times do I have to say it before you understand?”
“I understand. You only have Shi Nuannuan in your heart, but… I really want to know why I haven’t been able to replace her in the past three years? “I’ve clearly given my all and loved you as much as her, but why… Can’t you see me?”
“I just can’t see you.”
“What…”
“I can’t see anyone except her. No matter how much you do, even if you give me the whole world, you can’t compare to her smiling face.”
”…”
His voice was so cold and heartless that it once again pierced her heart.
“Is she really that good? Why Can’t It Be Me…”
“Because you’re not her. You Don’t have her smiling face, her willfulness, or the way she gets angry when she gets jealous.”
“If you like this, I can change too…”
“So what if I change? You’re still you, not her. There’s only one Shi Nuannuan in this world, and the one I want to marry is the only one.”
”…”
She stood rooted to the ground. What he wanted to say was that no matter how much she changed, it was impossible for her to become Shi Nuannuan, right?
Her hands that were hanging on her chest were tightly clenched. She closed her eyes, allowing the tears to flow down her cheeks and hit her chest.
“I’m sorry.”
Finally, he glanced at her, turned around, and walked towards the door.
The moment he turned around, he did not know if it was an illusion or if it was affected by his mood, but he felt a little warm.
“Wait a minute.”
She raised her head and called out to him again.
