So what if the girl he liked had become someone else’s girlfriend? He could still find someone better in the future. Why was he crying?
If Han Siye hadn’t tried so hard to comfort himself, to hold back the soreness in his throat and eyes, he might have cried…
He had been awake all night, and his heart still hurt the next day. So he had thought about going back.
Maybe, if he went back, he wouldn’t feel so bad. If he couldn’t see her, he wouldn’t think of her, right?
However, as soon as Han Siye sent Little Jiu a message, telling her that he was headed back, he regretted it. He had come here with Little Jiu and had promised her father that he would protect her. What was the point of going back alone?
At the very least, he had to get her back safely first.
So, he had pulled a few strings and found out which flight Su Jiu was on. Then he decisively bought himself a ticket.
Su Jiu choked. “Why were you worried? Did you forget that I have bodyguards secretly following me? I’m not in danger.”
She knew perfectly well that Han Siye’s concern for her safety was only one of the reasons he hadn’t left. The main reason is still that he wanted to go back with me, isn’t it?
What should I say to this child?
Han Siye’s dark brown eyes flickered slightly. He smirked and said, “Alright. I admit that I had dismissed the idea of going back first. If I had gone back first… I woouldn’t be able to sit with you like this.”
Su Jiu helplessly sighed and seriously looked at him. “Han Siye, there’s something I want to tell you.”
Han Siye turned to look at her and listened quietly.
“I have a boyfriend. It’s Rong Si.” Su Jiu knew such words would hurt, but she had to say it. “So, please stop pining after me…”
She hoped he would let it go sooner rather than later. It wouldn’t do either of them any good.
“You mean, you want me to stop thinking about you?” Han Siye forced a smile and deliberately said in a relaxed tone, “What’s wrong? I can’t even think about you?”
Looking at his smile, Su Jiu could not smile at all. She replied, “Han Siye, I’m serious. I have a boyfriend. I like him, and our relationship is very good now. Moreover, I don’t want anyone to interfere in it. Do you understand what I’m saying?”
Han Siye fell silent and looked at her steadily. A hint of pain quickly flashed across his eyes.
Suddenly, Su Jiu could not bear to look away.
However, Han Siye suddenly smiled and casually said, “It doesn’t matter. You like what you like, and I’ll like what I like. It’s fine.”
How is that fine!
A little angry now, Su Jiu pursed her lips to ignore him.
Han Siye quickly asked, “Are you angry?”
Su Jiu remained silent and looked out the window.
“Don’t be angry. Why don’t I treat you to a feast after we get off the plane?” Han Siye softened his voice, as if he was coaxing her.
He is so persistent…
Su Jiu felt even more helpless. Coincidentally, the plane took off very quickly. Under Han Siye’s expectant gaze, she closed her eyes and said, “I’m airsick. I’ll sleep for a while.”
Han Siye knew that Su Jiu did not want to discuss this topic with him. As he looked at her fair face and closed eyes, the smile on his lips disappeared bit by bit.
What she had just said made him feel terrible.
It’s only… a bit uncomfortable. So what?
He wondered if he would ever give up on her. If he’d ever let her go. At least, he couldn’t do that yet…
