Chapter 387 - She could be Okay (1/2)

She shook her head. Two clusters of gray had appeared below her eyes, underneath her curly eyelashes.

”I won't be coming to visit you anymore. Trust me. You will be fine because you can't bear to part with everything you have right now. You simply refused to allow the existence of your defeat, and I refused to be the stepping stone to your success.”

When she was finished, she turned around. In her heart, there were still no traces of wavy colors.

Suddenly, she heard the wailing cries of Shen Yijun. It was shrieking.

Filled with self-mockery.

If crying would resolve problems, she was willing to cry tanks and tanks of tears. However, it wouldn't. Nothing would.

When she came out of the hospital, a gust of wind suddenly blew at her locks of hair which was above her shoulders. Waves of refreshing coolness met her as she combed her hair with her fingers. She fiddled with her messy black fringe. As she looked up, a man's silhouette from afar fell into her line of vision. He was harder than a rock; his heart was more volatile than the red sea. He was harder to figure out than the abyss.

This was the kind of man that a woman should steer clear of. She was the only stupid one to throw everything that she had into a relationship with him. Now that she thought of it, it was actually quite laughable.

That man was also stunned to see her. Perhaps, he might not have expected to. Sparks suddenly flashed in his dark eyes which erupted into fireworks and vanished in an instant. He strode over with steady steps. However, only he knew that his heart was thumping so loudly that he could hear it vividly. He started to become giddy; his spirit tensing. Even his hands were sweating so badly.

He never dreamed of a day when he would be so stressed up. Even when he was negotiating all those billion-dollar deals, he had never been afraid. Yet—now, he was scared, worried, and hesitating.

Yes. He should say something to her.

Hi. It's such a coincidence that you are here, too.

What are you doing here?

How have you been?

However, regardless of the numerous openings and different approaches, he found it hard to say anything. In the end, his lips merely parted and closed. It seemed as if a lump of cotton was stuck in his throat.

”Ruo…”

Before he could finish what he was about to say, Xia Ruoxin turned around abruptly without a backward glance and left. She stretched her hand out and hailed a taxi. There was no hesitation in her actions.

Chu Lui's thin lips moved. He pursed them tightly, and he could vaguely taste the hint of bitterness.

”Ruoxin, I'm sorry.”

Xia Ruoxin did not need this kind of apology. Like she had said, some apologies were not a means to an end. If they really wanted to dispute what to hate, she was willing to give him one so they would go their separate ways and not have anything to do with each other.

Xia Ruoxin sat in the taxi and crossed her fingers between one another unconsciously as she turned her face away. The reflection of her side profile could be seen on the window of the car. She wanted to laugh. However, she could not bring herself to move the corners of her lips. Truly, they should stop harassing her. Couldn't they?
