That night, when he confessed his feelings to Chuxia, her reaction was so intense, so vehent, filled with clear repulsion and resentnt, it truly hurt him, but he understood that it was all because he had first done wrong. That Chuxia didn’t believe him, resented him, he could understand and accept.
He thought, even if Chuxia didn’t believe in his feelings now, it didn’t matter. As long as he worked hard, worked hard to prove to her his love, then one day, she would know, would understand that his feelings for her were sincere.
So these days, he silently kept her company, silently stood by her, even if he could only face Ling Chuxia’s cold deanor, he did so without a word of complaint. After all, what was her coldness now compared to the harm he had once caused Chuxia?
But now she said, even if I beg you, please let go...
Her voice was so soft, so calm, exuding imnse exhaustion, yet it was more lethal than her fiercely mocking words that day.
At that ti, she simply didn’t believe his words, didn’t believe his feelings, but now... she wouldn’t even give him the slightest chance.
She wanted him to let her go...
She actually wanted him to let her go...
In a single sentence, she negated all his efforts of these days, in one sentence, she shattered his heart that he had wanted to prove to her.
Shi Che’s dark pupils slowly blinked, a hint of moisture erged at the corner of his eyes; although he still stared ahead, driving the car, his vision began to blur unconsciously.
Lips trembling, Shi Che struggled to open his mouth, and it took him a while before he could finally speak, "Chuxia, I just wanted to prove that I love you, is that also not possible?"
He didn’t even dare to hope for her response anymore, was it still not enough?
What he had done, was it to prove his love for her? Or was it just another way to toy with her?
Ling Chuxia’s lowered eyelashes trembled fiercely, hands resting on her knees clenched tightly, as his actions over the past few days involuntarily flashed through her mind.
She had thought she could treat him like air, as if he didn’t exist, but now upon reflection, every image was crystal clear.
He protected her in front of himself, shielding her from the crowd, no matter how late she finished work, stepping out of the company door, she could always see his tall figure waiting quietly under that street lamp. Every noon, he ordered als for her, the dishes inside were all her favorite. Even when she tossed them away without blinking, he kept on sending them without fail.
Did he really love her? Was he not treating her as a substitute, not just toying with her?
No, was she wavering again? Had she been swayed just by a word from Shi Che? Had she forgotten the past lessons? Forgotten her elder sister’s words?
She shouldn’t listen to him, shouldn’t heed his words.
Ling Chuxia forcefully shook her head, her voice suddenly raised, as if to cover the chaos and unease in her heart, she hurriedly said, "I’ve said it already, no matter what you do or say, I won’t believe you. Go away, go back to Liang City, don’t show up in front of again! I beg you!"
Without even pausing for breath, she imdiately unbuckled her seatbelt, pushed the car door open, and rushed toward the apartnt building.
Shi Che sat there dumbfounded, Ling Chuxia’s repeated pleads ringing in his ears. His dark eyes stared blankly ahead as the rain began to drizzle down again, striking the glass, striking his heart.
