“No, you don’t have to worry about Xiaojiao!” Su Yue imdiately cut across Ming Ansheng.
She realized that she was overly nervous and worked up. She bent her head and tucked so strands behind her ears. “It’s alright. I can take care of Xiaojiao myself. My brother hired soone to help . And... there is no need for you to think of us.”
She was really afraid that soone would replace Jiao Chen’s place in Xiaojiao’s heart.
She didn’t want that to happen.
Ming Ansheng was intelligent and observant ever since he was a boy. He had been working for so many years, so how could he not tell what was on Su Yue’s mind?
A streak of bitter disappointnt flashed past his eyes and he replied, “I’m just concerned about both of you. I don’t have any other motives and I certainly don’t intend to take Xiaojiao away from you. I just couldn’t bear to see you staying here alone.”
Was he speaking the truth?
It really... seed like he was.
He didn’t dare to harbor hopes about them having a future together. But how could he leave her in the lurch?
Su Yue was relieved, and she replied, “I’m already used to the life here. I’m familiar with the people and places too. And my neighbors are really nice to . You don’t have to worry about .”
Except for the fact that Jiao Chen was gone, she was used to everything here.
She really had no wish of going back to et everyone else.
Ming Ansheng frowned slightly and sorrow lingered in his eyes. He exhaled deeply as he glanced at Su Yue. “Yueyue, can’t we be friends?”
“No,” Su Yue objected as she looked solemnly at Ming Ansheng. “We should have led parallel lives and never t each other. But because of my third brother, we t coincidentally for a brief period. We are destined to lead separate lives.”
In her heart, she felt that they were destined to be strangers. Their past, their relationship, they were rely a passing coincidence.
Pain rcilessly stabbed Ming Ansheng’s heart.
He had already expected that Su Yue buried her feelings for him.
But it was still an agony to hear her say it in person.
She had forgotten all about him, yet he was still wallowing in misery.
This was the punishnt for his cowardice and being so useless. He had hurt two won who had loved him deeply.
“Uncle Ming, why are you still dwelling on the past?” Su Yue watched Ming Ansheng with a stoic expression.
Ming Ansheng gazed into the depths of Su Yue’s eyes. “In that case, will you be able to put down the past and look ahead?”
Su Yue nodded, looking determined. “I can do it.”
She had to do it. Jiaojiao was gone, so there was nothing she should hold on to any longer.
She will lead a new life with Xiaojiao bravely. She knew that Jiaojiao would be happy to know.
It startled Ming Ansheng. He curled his mouth and muttered, “Take care of Xiaojiao and yourself... I won’t look for you if you don’t allow to.”
Su Yue smiled at him and swept past him without another word.
She did it without any hesitation.
Ming Ansheng remained rooted on the spot with his hands in his pockets. He absentmindedly gazed afar.
Ming Ansheng, you’re still a coward.
...
The boy entered the study and frowned when he saw that the air was thick with smoke.
