le Cheng Luo's face was devoid of a smile, only worry. 。"I'm fine! We are really alright. Don't worry, " 。After repeatedly assuring Cheng Luo that everything was alright, Cheng Luo finally relaxed his..."Well, you're the one. You keep coming here and disrupting my work all day long. Are you going to keep this up until I have to call the police" Shen Jue's face was stern, his expression grim and his aura cold and powerful, almost sending shivers down your spine.

Sophie was momentarily speechless, anger clouding her like a dark cloud above her head.

She smiled disdainfully at Shangguan Nana, but behind that smile, who knows how many sharp daggers were hidden.

“I'm so envious of you. Wherever you go, there are men to support you.” Sophie said this indifferent remark and then turned to pick up her leather bag from the sofa. As she walked out, she didn't forget to bump into Shangguan Nana’s shoulder hard, causing Shangguan Nana to take a few steps back.

The scent of her perfume filled Shangguan Nana's nostrils, invading her senses like a deadly, intoxicating poison.

Sophie left, but her words stayed deeply in Shangguan Nana's heart. What she said wasn't wrong at all; she was a person who ate from the bowl while looking at the pot, a shameless woman cheating on her partner.

She remained holding onto Shen Jue's wrist, standing there for a long time. Shen Jue extended his other hand to grasp hers. When his warm palm touched hers, Shangguan Nana finally came to her senses. She also released her grip, slowly moving his hand from her back.

"Shen Jue, just now my rebuttal... wasn't it pale and powerless Very lacking in conviction, wasn't it" She spoke softly, her voice barely a whisper.

Shen Jue didn't know how to answer her. Sophie's antics made him realize something, he seemed to have, from beginning to end, never noticed that there was a person like Shan Mao... He hadn't paid attention to the person in front of him who he was pursuing at all. Was she still single

His fingers twitched helplessly, finally resting against his trouser pocket, as if he had never felt so powerless in his life. He used to have whatever he wanted; later, he gave up on all of it, pursuing only what he truly desired. He still had everything, but now, he admitted he was incredibly small and insignificant.

Unable to change all of this, it is the past that cannot be changed.

"I... I'm sorry..." Those four words were all that came out of my mouth after what felt like an eternity. It was as if I had spent ages deliberating over them, yet also as though they had just tumbled out without a second thought.

Shangguan Nana smiled, but only a reluctant smile played on her lips. There was even a hint of bitterness in it: "Sorry Sorry for what"

Then, there was a moment of silence between the two. Shangguan Nana looked at Shen Jian beside her, still feeling that familiar distance. Although he was right there, she felt as if he were miles away, so far that she could never reach him.

Actually… I really like being with you…

When the air carried these words to Shenjue's ears, Shenjue's heart, which had been hanging in mid-air, finally landed firmly. The feeling was so unreal that he doubted if he had fallen into a third space.

...to the point where he could only stare at Shangguan Nana standing before him. A smile played on her lips, the corners of her eyes crinkling like pink cherry blossom petals. That smile, in that moment for Shen Jian, was everything.

Shangguan Nana walked past him, the wind blowing up a corner of her white dress like a pure white gardenia. Shen Jue didn't know where he got the confidence and courage, but just as Shangguan Nana was about to brush past him, he reached out again and grabbed her wrist.

He gripped her with such force, as if the next second she would vanish before his eyes, never to be seen again. It was like a drowning person, clutching desperately at the last straw of salvation.ood friend, Qian's husband, had paid up. How could her brother-in-law possibly not pay Qin Yu"You think I'm a Scrooge"Qin Yu said angrily, glancing at Liu Tao who was standing beside him."Ahem! That's...
