Chapter 250 - 250 251 Let Me Thank You for the False Joy You
?Chapter 250: Chapter 251: Let Me Thank You for the False Joy You Gave Me (2)_1 Chapter 250: Chapter 251: Let Me Thank You for the False Joy You Gave Me (2)_1 Jing Haohao stood dumbstruck for quite a while, before blindly wandering off in a direction she herself did not know.
After walking for what felt like ages, her legs had started to go numb. The night had already fallen completely, the snowstorm growing increasingly intense. Just as Jing Haohao felt unable to continue, a car slowly pulled up beside her.
Jing Haohao took a step back and turned her head to see the car door opening. The driver from Liang Chen’s villa got out of the car, respectfully walked up to her and said, “Miss Jing, I’m here to take you home.”
…
The car was filled with warm air, that soon caused her to break out into a cold sweat. However, her heart felt not the slightest hint of warmth.
As she gazed at the increasingly large snowflakes outside the car window, the image of the photo she just received suddenly flashed through her mind, and her tears began to uncontrollably pour out once again.
She had already been hurting for so long, she should have been numb to the pain, but it was still unbearable.
Jing Haohao suddenly remembered Shen Liangnian’s words, “Haohao, I, Shen Liangnian, swear with my life that if I ever cause you pain, I will surely face divine retribution.” That night, under the bright stars in the desolate outskirts, Shen Liangnian looked into her eyes, his gaze flickering with solemn resolution. Then, she thought that their blissful love was just as eternal as the stars, but now she realized it was merely a shooting star, fleeting and transient.
On that day, when she received a message from Shen Liangnian, she thought she could finally escape from her misery, and was so excited and jubilant. But now, she found that she hadn’t escaped from the sea of bitterness at all; her heart was full of gaping wounds.
Jing Haohao raised her hand and lightly pressed it against the car window. The warmth from her fingertips, permeating through the glass, rapidly melted the snowflakes adhered to the glass into a string of water droplets that slid down.
Jing Haohao’s fingers lingered on the car window for quite a while before she softly uttered a sentence: “Let me thank you, for giving me a false sense of joy.”
…
The car came to a smooth stop in front of the villa.
Jing Haohao gazed at the luxurious villa where she had resided for several months. Against the background of the snowy night, it looked like a castle from a fairy-tale world, utterly breathtaking.
After getting out of the car, Jing Haohao stared at the ornately styled wall lamp in front of the door and suddenly felt like everything that just happened was a horrible nightmare, and that she had never actually thought of leaving this place.
“Miss Jing, it’s cold outside. Come in quickly,” the driver opened the villa door for Jing Haohao and respectfully said.
Jing Haohao nodded and took a step to walk in.
Seeing her, Nanny Lin immediately rushed over joyfully, conscientiously offering her slippers, “Miss Jing, you are finally back.”
Jing Haohao gave Nanny Lin a smile, “I’m sorry for making you worry.”
“Silly child, what are you talking about? Look at how wet your clothes are, quickly take off this outerwear,” Nanny Lin said, then reached out to help Jing Haohao take off her coat.
Jing Haohao walked into the living room, and saw Liang Chen sitting on the sofa.
The man showed no expression on his face. When he saw her come in, he lifted his head, gave her a lukewarm glance, then turned his head and said to a servant standing nearby, “Go upstairs and prepare a hot bath.”
Then, looking at Nanny Lin, he said, “Take her to the dining room for dinner.”
Having said that, Liang Chen shifted his attention back to the television screen, displaying no intention whatsoever of speaking to Jing Haohao.
