"Nuannuan, is it possible?" Holding her soft little hand, Leng Yan’s voice was still low, filled with a strong sense of pleading.
He couldn’t watch her stand in front of another man. He wanted to get her back and be with her, growing old together.
He had promised they would always be together, forever in this life and the next. If possible, he hoped that in the next life, she would still be his wife, just without having to suffer so much.
He even considered using the Wen Family to keep her by his side. But it was just a fleeting thought; he didn’t want to make her hate him. Unless absolutely necessary, he didn’t want to resort to such extre asures.
Wen Nuan bit her lip, her heartstrings taut. After drinking so warm stomach-soothing porridge, his hands were no longer as cold as before. The warm feeling seed to lt the icy wall she had deliberately built around her heart, and she almost impulsively turned back to hug him and cry.
But she held back, with an inexplicable emotion surging in her heart. She couldn’t believe it. Having been deceived once, she couldn’t make the sa mistake again.
After a long while, she took a deep breath and coldly uttered three words, "It’s not possible."
After all she had been through, she admitted she still couldn’t let go of her feelings for him, but she wouldn’t be easily swayed again.
"Nuannuan..." Leng Yan’s heart ached, he lowered his eyes, disappointnt raging in his dark pupils, "Can you really not forgive ?"
"Here’s the stomach dicine; I bought it when you went to the restroom. Of course, I used your money." Wen Nuan rembered sothing, withdrew her hand, took the dicine out of her bag, and handed it to Leng Yan, feeling a sense of irony in her heart. Can such a thing be forgiven?
He’s already together with Ji Wei, forgiving him would be tantamount to agreeing to share him with soone else?
Ridiculous!
Leng Yan frowned slightly and took it from her. Watching her walk away, he caught up and forcibly placed sothing into her hand.
"What?" Wen Nuan paused, sowhat surprised, carefully looking at the item in her hand, "A room card?"
"Yes." Leng Yan nodded, opened the dicine, drank so water, and took it. He looked at her deeply before saying, "This is my room card; the hotel is just a five-minute walk to the right from here. You should go."
"What about you?" She needed a place to stay but couldn’t selfishly disregard others.
Leng Yan lowered his head and then raised it again, looking at her with a sowhat bitter expression on his handso face, "I have my ID, so I can open another room. I called the driver from the restroom earlier, but the phone was off, probably out of battery. I’ll call again tomorrow morning and have your things returned to you."
Finally, worried Wen Nuan might not go, his lips curved into a smile, "Consider it a repaynt for you buying the stomach dicine."
"You..." Wen Nuan glared, knowing he was borrowing her words from before about repaying her for helping him over here with porridge. She pursed her lips, said nothing, took the room card, and turned to leave.
She had bought the kind of dicine he often took, and it was very effective. There shouldn’t be anything left to worry about. And for her, no matter how high-spirited, wearing a dress on an autumn night made it hard to resist the cold.
Just stay for one night, and tomorrow, when Tan Qing returns to T City, she could retrieve her clothes and then go...
Go...
Wen Nuan’s thoughts were blocked, she walked slowly, a helpless smile on her lips.
Where to go?
She didn’t know.
She didn’t want to return to T City yet, but she had promised Mrs Tan she wouldn’t stay any longer at the MT branch in E City. She probably wouldn’t be in the mood to work for so ti and really wanted to relax. A dim light flashed through her mind, and she took out her phone to call Tong Xi, "Xixi, where are you right now?"
"Hey, Nuannuan darling, what made you think of calling ? Where’s Tan Qing, isn’t he with you?" Tong Xi bounced up from the hotel bed, teasing with a laugh, "Not being lovey-dovey?"
"The two of us..." Wen Nuan hesitated for a long ti before speaking, "Her mom ca and stopped us from seeing each other."
"What?" Tong Xi’s smile froze for two seconds before quickly turned into anger, "Stubborn old fart, damn it! Nuannuan, does she mind that you’ve been married? That’s so infuriating. Is Tan Qing with you, hand the phone over to him!"
"He’s not here." Wen Nuan shook her head, "Xixi, don’t get angry. No one is to bla for this. Mrs Tan has her reasons, and I can understand her concerns."
"What about Tan Qing, did he obey his mom?" Tong Xi’s expression darkened.
If Tan Qing was a "mama’s boy" who listened to his mom for everything, she would look down on him!
"No, his mom approached behind his back, but I don’t want to trouble him." Wen Nuan took a breath, "Xixi, if I really loved Tan Qing, I would fight for him. But, I still haven’t. I know you’ll call stubborn, but I can’t help it, I’ve tried my best. Now, after hearing Mrs Tan’s words, I don’t even have the courage anymore. She was very realistic, forcing to face the truth. The Tan and Leng families are both in T City, and they have great societal influence. I can’t let Tan Qing suffer for ."
"Why so troubled, no wonder people say, ’What is love anyway? Love, damn it, is nothing!’" Tong Xi frowned, feeling sorry for Wen Nuan and Tan Qing.
eting the wrong person at the wrong ti, is it destined to be a tragedy?
"What do you want to do now? Nuannuan, since you’re not going anywhere, why not co to , we can travel together and keep each other company, how about that?"
"I thought about it, but I’m afraid my bad mood will affect you." Wen Nuan’s heart felt warm.
Losing love, but still having friends, made her feel really warm, at least it wouldn’t make her feel hopeless.
"Cut the crap, you’re always welco!"
...
Using the room card to open the door, Wen Nuan sat on the bed for a while before taking a warm shower. Coming out and lying on the big bed, she still couldn’t fall asleep.
She lay on the sa bed he once did, her mind filled with his image. Looking around, it seed as if the whole room bore traces of his presence.
Dark, happy, painful, helpless, indulgent...
One after another, clearly unfolding, impossible to get rid of. Wanting to stand by the window to look at the stars, only the neon lights were too bright, with few stars visible. Back on the bed, sothing was still blocking her heart, the stifling feeling making her a bit breathless.
She really regretted staying in his room; this kind of feeling made her rather wander the streets aimlessly all night, even if it ant catching a cold the next day, than feel this way.
Unable to stay any longer, she wanted to take a walk, even if just for so fresh air. Just as she changed clothes and opened the door, a shadow suddenly flashed inside, and before she could scream, her mouth was covered, and the door slamd shut. Soon, footsteps were heard outside, chaotic and indistinct, but it seed there were several people.
