Chapter 323 - 323 324 Congratulations (8)_1
?Chapter 323: Chapter 324: Congratulations (8)_1 Chapter 323: Chapter 324: Congratulations (8)_1 Shen Liangnian looked at Jing Haohao, her familiar face looked even more delicate than it had when they were together. The extravagant clothing and expensive jewelry, which he had never bought for her, gave her a unique beauty. All of it seemed to enhance her refined features even further.
He reluctantly thought about how she sat quietly next to Liang Chen at the club, her eyes curved in a soft smile as she calmly wished him and Qiao Wennuan well… As if he had no place in her heart anymore.
He knew he deserved this, that he was to blame, and yet, it still hurt. Their ten years together, coming up from poverty and hardship, had ended so abruptly because of his reckless behavior.
Back then, he had harbored the hope that his affair with Qiao Wennuan would never be revealed. Only now did he realize, there were no secrets in this world, only truths waiting for their time to come to light.
Shen Liangnian’s eyes began to burn but he did not wait for Jing Haohao to speak. He said, “These three slaps were deserved. The first for breaking my promise to whisk you away, the second for giving Qiao Wennuan the opportunity to harm you, and the third for letting you down…”
Shen Liangnian spoke quickly as if afraid he wouldn’t finish, “Haohao, all these are my own doing, it’s not anyone else’s fault. But please believe me, Haohao, I never intended to let money come between us. The bank card wasn’t meant for you…trust me.”
“Liangnian, what good would believing you do?” Jing Haohao asked after long silence, her voice steady, “You are marrying Qiao Wennuan and I am Liang Chen’s woman. We both know there’s no possibility for us in this lifetime. Therefore, you really don’t need to explain so much…”
Even if you clear all the misunderstandings now, we can never go back to the way we were. Perhaps some misunderstandings are better left unresolved – it’s easier to bear grudges than to let go of a love that was forced to end.
“I understand, but I…” Shen Liangnian started, but was abruptly interrupted as Cong Rong rushed over urgently from one side, “Liangnian, I knew you would meet her here. You really have a death wish! Do you want to cause more chaos!”
As Cong Rong fiercely whispered, she rushed to Shen Liangnian’s side, arm around his shoulder, and turned to Jing Haohao. “Liang Chen is on his way to find you. If he sees you two meeting secretly, it won’t end well for either of you.”
After her warning, Cong Rong forcefully led Shen Liangnian towards the restroom.
Shen Liangnian resisted, his instinct wanting to go back to Jing Haohao.
Jing Haohao looked calmly at Shen Liangnian struggling with Cong Rong. She slowly said, “Liangnian, you’re my past and my current illusion.”
Shen Liangnian’s face turned pale instantly, all his strength leaving him.
Even if she considered him an illusion, what of that? Even if she could not be with him, he would still make Qiao Wennuan pay for what she owed Haohao.
Pushing Shen Liangnian into the restroom in one breath, Jing Haohao then heard hurried footsteps behind her. Turning, she saw Liang Chen striding towards her.
