Chapter 714: Chapter 715: Courage (7)_1 Chapter 714: Chapter 715: Courage (7)_1 “If you think there’s no issue, then there’s no issue.” Liang Chen moved his gaze away from Jing Haohao, his tone as indifferent as ever: “If there’s nothing else, let’s go.”
“Okay.” Su Yan nodded her head, taking the lead to depart with her friend.
Liang Chen remained in his spot, watching Jing Haohao for a mont longer, then turned and followed his friends out.
…
Only after a full minute past the sounds of “Take care, sir, madam” did Jing Haohao finally put down her scissors. She left so instructions for the staff on how to care for the flowers, grabbed her bag and left.
She stepped out of the club, and as she was waiting for the bus by the roadside, she saw Liang Chen’s familiar car exit the parking lot.
The car windows were lowered, and from her angle, she could clearly see him in the driver’s seat.
Jing Haohao froze in place, unable to move.
When Liang Chen checked his rearview mirror, his eyes t Jing Haohao’s eyes.
Jing Haohao’s heart suddenly skyrocketed, her lips twitching slightly. Then, in the next second, Liang Chen withdrew his gaze indifferently, as if she were a stranger. He faced forward, smoothly turned the steering wheel, and drove away from her, rounding a corner and disappearing from her sight.
Jing Haohao stood motionless, simply staring as Liang Chen’s car got farther and farther away.
She didn’t know how long she had stood there, but when she noticed her hands and feet had grown numb, she slowly turned and watched the incoming bus. She boarded imdiately, and as she sat down, she felt a bitter sense of desolation rising from her chest.
…
Returning ho, Jing Haohao sat on her couch, staring blankly into space for a while before heading over to a cabinet and pulling out a cardboard box.
Inside the box were items that belonged to him, which she had packed away the day he moved out.
The mont he entered the elevator, she ran to the window and watched as he walked out of the building and tossed the box into a trash bin without a second glance.
Standing at the window, Jing Haohao unconsciously reached out and tightly gripped the window lattice. Once Liang Chen had driven away, she hurriedly ran downstairs, retrieved the box from the trash, and brought it back ho.
She didn’t know why she had bothered to retrieve the box, but there it was, placed neatly in her cabinet.
Jing Haohao ripped off the tape and looked at his things neatly arranged inside, feeling a suffocating discomfort in her chest.
As she gently ran her fingers over his things, it was as if she could still feel his warmth, as if she could still sll his scent.
Yet in her heart, she felt utterly lost.
She had thought about the day he would marry another woman when they separated.
But when that day actually arrived, she realized that the hurt was truly heart-wrenching.
…
In the evening, Liang Chen and Su Yan went out for Western cuisine.
They didn’t leave the restaurant until nine o’clock. Unlocking his car, Liang Chen turned his head to look at Su Yan and said, “I’ll take you ho.”
Su Yan opened the car door and gracefully slid in. As she watched Liang Chen fasten his seat belt, she hesitated for a mont before saying, “I’d like to see the night view at the Ring City River, is that okay?”
