Chapter 689 - 689 690 Regret (2)_1
?Chapter 689: Chapter 690 Regret (2)_1 Chapter 689: Chapter 690 Regret (2)_1 He only knew that after sitting quietly in the driver’s seat for a long time, he finally came to his senses somewhat dazedly. The resentment that he had always suppressed deep in his heart had all exploded out of him.
His love story with Jing Haohao, though it seemed to unfold quite naturally, didn’t give his heart a single day of peace.
Ever since he realized he was in love with her, he had never been ruthless to her, not until now…
He really wanted to know whether she genuinely loved him deep down in her heart or not.
Liang Chen leaned against the seat back and slowly closed his eyes, a trail of tears welling up and spilling out from the corner of his eyes.
After a long while, he lifted his hand, gently wiping away the tears, took out his phone and dialed his assistant to tell them to stop preparing Forever Eight Thirty.
The proposal he had planned for tonight… wouldn’t happen.
After ending the call, Liang Chen took a deep breath, slowly started the car, stepped on the gas pedal, and drove off.
…
Jing Haohao cried even harder, eventually bursting into sobs at the table, crying until she was completely drained of energy. Only then did Jing Haohao manage to stand up from her chair.
She saw the mess on the floor swept aside by Liang Chen, the congee he had cooked spread all over the place, the soup now dried up.
She moved her lips, walked into the bathroom, picked up a cloth, squatted down, picked up the broken porcelain bowl fragments and threw them into the bin before wiping the floor clean.
Jing Haohao picked up her phone from under the dining table, went into her bedroom, put on a coat, took her bag, and walked out of the house.
Jing Haohao hailed a taxi and went straight to the People’s Hospital in Jiangshan City.
…
On that Christmas Eve, Shen Liangnian stayed overnight in the square where he used to watch the meteor shower with Jing Haohao.
Even at three o’clock in the morning, the square was still bustling. Shen Liangnian quietly leaned against his car door, looking up at the sky filled with lanterns sent by pairs of lovers. He thought of the wish he had made when he and Jing Haohao sent lanterns into the sky: To win a person’s heart and stay together till the end.
It was their first Christmas together. Neither of them had ever been in a romantic relationship before, they were each other’s first love. He had tried to make the Christmas special for her, having researched a lot of suggestions online but in the end, he chose the most conservative plan. He took Jing Haohao out for a meal, watched a movie, and then brought her to the square to launch lanterns together.
That Christmas Eve was exceptionally cold. Jing Haohao’s hands and face were freezing red. He, feeling sympathetic, put her hands inside his clothes.
They were so close together. He couldn’t help himself and leaned down to kiss her lips.
It was their first kiss.
At that time, amidst many couples around them, there wasn’t one girlfriend as beautiful as his Haohao. He felt so lucky then.
Unfortunately, he messed up in the end, angering his Lady Luck. He lost Jing Haohao, and now he was about to lose his life too.
Shen Liangnian stood until ten o’clock the next day, then he returned to his car, leisurely driving home.
Halfway through, he was getting quite hungry, so he decided to stop at a convenience store and buy some food. After locking the car and taking a few steps, he suddenly blacked out and fell to the ground.
