<strong>Chapter 572: Chapter 382: Nothing to do with You_2</strong>
The young man who had his flirtation intercepted was not happy about it. He was ready to give chase when the sight of the Bentley parking ahead made him bite his lip, relent and halt unwillingly!
On the other side, Liang Qiaoqiao was dragged towards the car. The force on her wrist discreetly vanished as the car door opened, a cold voicemanding, “Get in!”
Liang Qiaoqiao nced at him, not resisting, she bent down and got into the car. The man walked to the other side, got into the driver’s seat, and shortly after, the car drove off!
Inside the car.
Both passengers kept silent, creating an awkward atmosphere!
Sitting there, Liang Qiaoqiao’s eyes twinkled, contemting whether she should say something. But, what could she say?
What she had said during the engagement ceremony earlier, he must’ve heard it all!
Before numerous witnesses, she imed that Chen Juncai wasn’t her soulmate. She dered she would still love a man, even if he had nothing, was homeless, or even harbored feelings for others; she imed that regardless of the passage of days, months, or even years, her affection won’t change…
Despite the frank confession, others may not understand, but the man beside her understoodpletely!
Although Liang Qiaoqiao gives off a bold and open personality, she still had her feminine shyness!
At the same time, she was wondering about his feelings after hearing her words. Was he guilty? Regretful? Helpless? Or heartbroken?
Heartbroken? She actually used this word!
How could he be? To feel heartbroken, she would have to be someone special to him!
If she wasn’t, then how could it be heartache?
As persistent and stubborn as she was, Mo Yan was even more so!
Just as her heart felt dead, Mo Yan’s heart had turned ash from eight years ago!
So, his current behavior towards you is because he pities you, right? Certainly, it should be pity!
Liang Qiaoqiao kept her expression neutral, remained silent, staring forward. Not saying a single word until the car parked near her apartmentplex!
She exhaled, tried to sound as nonchnt as possible, and uttered two words, “Thank You!”
Then, she pulled open the car door, preparing to get out!
“Wait!” The grip on her wrist increased again. Liang Qiaoqiao froze, turned her head to look at him, “What now? Anything else?”
Mo Yan’s brows furrowed, his lips moving, “I want to ask you something…”
Liang Qiaoqiao was startled, a brief moment of confusion shed across her beautiful face, too quick for anyone to notice!
She pursed her lips, feigning nonchnce, she raised her eyebrows, “Ask away!”
The grip on her wrist loosened a bit, as if he was pondering how to ask, giving a troubled look.
Liang Qiaoqiao felt her heartbeat irregr, the air inside the car became oppressive!
And then, he finally spoke, “Was I the primary reason for you not getting engaged to Chen Juncai?”
Startled, Liang Qiaoqiao stared at him, trying to ascertain the intention behind his question.
His features were deep-set, clear, matured, and steadypared to ten years ago!
These years had shrouded him under a more mysterious and appealing veil, however, his eyes were as indifferent as before!
A long time ago, Liang Qiaoqiao felt that Mo Yan’s eyes hid many things which were impossible to discern from his actions because he wouldn’t let anyone understand his true feelings. He concealed it all too well!
Liang Qiaoqiao couldn’t understand him before, and now, even ten yearster, she still couldn’t understand him!
Why was that?
Simple, because he had never given her the chance to understand him!
So Liang Qiaoqiao, even if this man is now helping you, rescuing you, or even acknowledging you, it’s not because he loves you!
Don’t be fooled again, don’t be silly. You can be without a man, without love, but not pity, especially not pity from him!
“You’re overthinking!” Liang Qiaoqiao chuckled lightly, “Mo Yan, indeed, I loved you for ten years, but I have decided to give up that love. If you’re worried about the things I’ve said at my wedding, you really shouldn’t, because I said all that just to save face!”
“Imagine, you’re about to get engaged, and another woman shows up with a baby bump dering that her child’s father is your soon-to-be husband… How would you feel? I, Liang Qiaoqiao, have never been in such a disgraceful situation…”
“In that circumstance, what could I do? Should I insist on being with Chen Juncai? Wouldn’t that be more of a joke? Hence, I chose to let go and find some self-respect through this method… That’s all!”
Mo Yan’s brows creased, disbelief shing in his eyes!
He looked at her, eyes ring fixedly at hers, “So, you’re saying: this has nothing to do with me?”
“Of course not, what could it possibly have to do with you?!” Liang Qiaoqiaoughed off dismissively, “I’m sorry if I gave you the wrong impression, but honestly, it has nothing to do with you!”
Something shed in Mo Yan’s eyes, Liang Qiaoqiao was taken aback, feeling the grip on her wrist disappear instantly. His icy voice chimed in, “I understand!”
Liang Qiaoqiao pursed her lips, his words made her heart ache, barely noticeable. She exhaled and spoke again, “So, I’ll leave first, goodbye!”
“Hmm.”
Liang Qiaoqiao nced at his side profile one more time, reached for the car door, this time Mo Yan didn’t stop her. She smoothly got out of the car!
Until she got back to her small apartment, Liang Qiaoqiao felt the day’s events seemed dreamlike, nothing more than just an illusory dream. When she woke up, it all seemed void!
She sat on the sofa, poured herself a ss of water, eyes resting on her wrist, surprisingly there was a faint red mark, left by Mo Yan’s grip – he held it tight!
Reflecting on something, she quickly went to the balcony to look outside!
The spot where his car was parked earlier, at this moment, waspletely empty.
