Capítulo 1708: Chapter 1708: Her Whole World Is Only You 41

Once love has ended, she can’t go back to being friends as they once were.

Therefore, being like strangers is the best outco for her and Lan Li.

“Lan Li, you can be selfish and only think about what’s best for you, but I, Ding Jinshi, cannot, and I certainly cannot hurt Ding Long. Back then, when you insisted on breaking up with without an explanation, I returned to school in M Country like a walking corpse, desperate and hopeless. Those days, that long stretch of ti, was torture for . I dread to think how I would have ended up if Ding Long hadn’t been by my side all those years, and I can’t even be sure I wouldn’t have done sothing foolish while abroad. Lan Li, you haven’t tasted my despair, so you won’t understand how grateful I am to Ding Long for being with through the toughest tis.”

Speaking of those years, Ding Jinshi’s tears fell like rain. All the pain, all the unforgettable monts, she finally let go, turning them into a chapter truly in the past.

She finally let go, no matter the apology from Lan Li at this mont, she had learned not to be moved.

“After I returned to the country, you didn’t co to find . When I got engaged, you didn’t co to see . By then, you had already severed all ties and past feelings between us. It was Ding Long who gave hope, who cared for with tender perfection, who tolerated all my bad moods. Ding Long is the best person in this world to , and I would never do anything to hurt him or make him experience the despair I once walked through.”

At those words, Ding Jinshi opened the door and turned her back to Lan Li. Through her words and actions, she made her stance clear; she would not go with Lan Li.

The military green figure trembled slightly; he understood that having missed opportunity after opportunity, he was the one who ultimately severed all possibilities with Ding Jinshi.

“I’m sorry. Perhaps, I shouldn’t be here today. Going forward, it will be as you wish.” Lan Li lifted his legs, which felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, and walked towards the door. Step by step, he finally stopped at the doorway, “Jinshi, you, with all your goodness, must find happiness.”

That single sentence was the greatest blessing he could give her. With those words, Lan Li finally departed.

Missing the chance ans missing it forever; her happiness is no longer sothing he can provide.

——

When Ding Long and the makeup artist entered the makeup room, the door was open, and inside, Lan Li was already nowhere to be found. Ding Jinshi sat alone in front of the makeup mirror, her eyes reddened and quietly sobbing.

“Jinshi.” Upon seeing her silhouette, Ding Long rushed in and wrapped her tightly in his arms. “Thank goodness you’re still here.”

Those five words were the only thought in Ding Long’s mind at that mont.

Thank goodness you’re still here; thank goodness you didn’t leave with Lan Li.

“Ding Long, back then, he didn’t want , but now, I don’t want him. Once, I so desperately wished he would co back for , but today, as he stood before , I suddenly felt a bit of hatred towards him. Hatred for his selfishness, hatred for letting go when he shouldn’t have, and appearing when he shouldn’t.” Ding Jinshi sobbed helplessly like a child in Ding Long’s embrace.

“From now on, everything about you will be unrelated to him.” Ding Long tenderly patted Ding Jinshi’s shoulder, comforting her softly. It didn’t matter why she was sorrowful or shedding tears for whom. What mattered was that even though Lan Li appeared, she still chose to stay.
