Chapter 662: Chapter 662: If He’s Not Waiting for You, Who Is He Waiting for?
Ning Yichen couldn’t help but laugh, “What he ans is… probably that only you can be his wife.”
“But why…” Zhixi still found it hard to believe, “He clearly told that he hadn’t been waiting for these four years, he had already…”
Stopped loving her.
“If he wasn’t waiting for you, then for whom was he waiting?” Ning Yichen suddenly sighed softly, “Do you know why he and I beca friends?”
Zhixi’s eyes widened as she shook her head slightly.
“Because of you,” Ning Yichen said word by word, “Because we both wanted to find out the truth behind that explosion, to avenge you. After your accident, He Jingyao was the only one who insisted that you were still alive. He never gave up searching for you, right up until the day before you returned to the country as the daughter of Duke Leslie. Our private etings were all because of you.”
Zhixi was montarily stunned.
Returning after so long, this was the first ti she had heard these things. She had wishfully thought that without her, his life might be freer.
Yet she never dared to delve into how he really spent those years.
At this thought, she suddenly felt a sourness in her eyes.
“Don’t listen to what he said,” Ning Yichen suddenly laughed, “I believe, even if he once said so heartless words to you, it was mostly intentional, either he had his reasons, or… he just doesn’t like letting you know how much he cares about you.”
Zhixi laughed mockingly, “Sounds like you understand him better than I do.”
Ning Yichen raised an eyebrow, “That’s because you’re too close to the situation. No matter the reason for your four-year absence, it’s impossible for him not to care.”
Zhixi’s heart sank suddenly.
Yes, she had avoided him for four years, breaking the promise they had made…
Even now, she still hoped he would treat her like he did back then, but what right did she have?
Although she hadn’t had it easy over these four years, was it easy for him?
The anger and grievance she initially felt suddenly turned to bewildernt.
In the distance, He Jingyao was still calmly socializing with the officials, his upright figure exuding a touch of cool aloofness that made Zhixi feel a sudden pang of heartache.
In fact, he wasn’t so unattainable… Even though he no longer shunned the opposite sex, he seed still not used to being surrounded by won.
Thinking this, she felt a bit sour in her heart, and even a little urge to laugh.
“Take back,” she suddenly said in a low voice.
Ning Yichen shook his head helplessly, smiling, “Alright… let’s go.”
Zhixi spoke briefly to Gu Bingjun, and then left the banquet hall with Ning Yichen.
As they got to the car, Ning Yichen was about to open the door when his phone suddenly rang.
While holding the door handle, he answered the call with a “Hello?”
Whatever was said from the other end made his expression turn cold, “Qixi is missing? What do you an?”
After hearing sothing from the other side, Ning Yichen’s look grew even grimr, “I understand, I’ll be there right away.”
After hanging up the call, he frowned in distress, “Then again…”
“Go and find Qixi,” Zhixi said, opening the car door and pushing him into the car, “I’ll have my father’s driver take .”
Rembering that Gu Bingjun was still there, Ning Yichen felt a bit more at ease, “Alright, then I’m leaving first. Send a ssage once you get to the hotel.”
