Chapter 1984: Trying To Impress Her
The only thing Ma Haodong ever asked for from his father in the past few years was to save the Xiao family’s company.
“Fine, let’s say I believe it’s your own money, why did you give these things to ?” Xiao Yuqian asked.
“Are you dumb or what? I’m trying to make you mine.” Ma Haodong sighed.
“...”
Thinking back on everything that Ma Haodong had done, that was an excellent explanation.
But Xiao Yuqian was confused. She had no idea whether she should accept soone four years younger than her to be her boyfriend.
She never thought that it would happen. All she could think of right then was all the different perspectives they had.
“I’m sorry, but we really aren’t ant to be together.” Xiao Yuqian shook her head. “You’re still young, and you still have ti to et the girl that you will really like. Us, all of these things are just a mistake. I cannot accept a relationship without love and only sex.”
It wasn’t what Ma Haodong wanted to hear. All the gifts he’d given that day were so he could impress her.
But it was a failure.
She rejected him because of their age difference.
Frustrated, Ma Haodong stepped on the pedal and drove all the way back to his mansion silently.
After parking the car, Ma Haodong turned to Xiao Yuqian and said, “Why would you say there isn’t love between us? You didn’t even give the chance to show you who I really am...how are you so sure that you won’t fall for ? Are you not going to even try because I’m younger than you?”
Hearing Ma Haodong’s rant, Xiao Yuqian knew that they could not communicate with each other without arguing.
Even if they really got together, they would argue like they were every day.
“Yes. Your gifts really saved today, but I cannot accept such expensive items.”
Xiao Yuqian handed Ma Haodong back the ring case.
He grabbed it tightly and could feel his heart ache. It felt like he was being treated like shit.
Ma Haodong did not say anything and exited the vehicle. He faced the lake and threw the ring into the water.
“Hey! What are you doing?” Xiao Yuqian shouted as she saw him throwing such a valuable item into the lake.
“I can do whatever I want with my possessions, can I not?” Ma Haodong said and went back into the mansion.
“But... Are you sure you don’t want it anymore?” Xiao Yuqian asked, but Ma Haodong did not reply. She stared as his lonely back as he disappeared into the building.
Xiao Yuqian could not explain her feeling at that ti. She felt conflicted and anxious at the sa ti. She stomped her feet a few tis and ran towards the lake.
The ring case was still floating on the water.
Xiao Yuqian quickly looked around to see if there was anything she could use to drag the case back.
But there was nothing for her to use. As the case slowly sank, Xiao Yuqian took off her shoes and stepped into the lake.
The cold water instantly made her shiver as soon as she entered it.
