Chapter 576 - This Time He was Going to be Appeasing (1/2)

”Cousin, you should let yourself move on. You really don't stand a chance anymore. You're stubborn, but actually, Sister Ruoxin is more stubborn than you. Otherwise, back then, she wouldn't have chosen to marry you even while knowing that you hated her; and all those things after that also wouldn't have happened.

”Actually seeing her live so happily, you should be able to feel at ease now.”

Du Jingtang spoke. In actual fact, he knew that he made things sound easy; and he was also very persuasive. However, no matter who this happened to, nobody would be able to accept it. It was just that even if he couldn't accept it, he had to.

This was probably his fate.

Originally, they could have lived together forever; however, they still let the chance slip by. If it was possible, he wanted his cousin to go back to how he used to be. Although he was coldhearted and ruthless, he wasn't in so much pain.

The him right now felt a heap of emotions, and that also meant that he wouldn't be able to get rid of the pain.

It would probably follow him for the rest of his life.

”I understand,” Chu Lui coldly said. He understood what Du Jingtang meant. He had actually long understood what he had to do.

…

Inside a high-class bar, Gao Yi walked in, found himself a seat, and sat down. Very quickly, a glass of alcohol appeared in front of him.

”Thank you. That's fine, I'll just have water. I drove here.” Gao Yi rejected the glass of alcohol. He had always cherished his life. When he drove, he didn't touch a drop of alcohol.

”It's fine. There's no alcohol in this. It's just a drink concoction.” Chu Lui pushed the cup towards him again. Gao Yi raised his eyebrows and drank a mouthful of the drink.

It had an extremely strange taste. However, it wasn't nasty, and he certainly couldn't taste any alcohol in it. He had to say this man sure knew how to enjoy life. This was indeed a suitable place for resting, dating, break-ups, and also meeting one's love rival.

”What did you call me out for? I'm sure it wasn't just to drink this?” Gao Yi lifted the cup in his hand and shook it. ”We don't seem close enough to do things like this. We can be considered love rivals.”

He placed down the cup in his hand then leaned forward. He said to the bartender, ”Thank you; can I have another glass of the same thing?” The bartender took over his cup, and with flashy moves, he started to mix the drinks. Without knowing what he had added and without actually trying the drink—just by seeing his actions, it was possible to tell that this drink was definitely a decent treat.

Whereas, at that moment, Chu Lui remained in his black suit. He looked respectable and aloof. Perhaps being coldhearted was in this man's nature. That's why, even when he sat there, without moving and speaking—even then—he still radiated a cold air that made him unapproachable.

”Do you love her?” He suddenly placed the cup in his hand down, asking the same question.

”I do.” Gao Yi received the glass from the bartender and drank from it, replying without any sense of hesitation. If he didn't love her, then he wouldn't have stayed by her side and protected her. If he didn't love her, then he wouldn't have cared so much for her. He wasn't a good person; he also had his own selfish motives. Everything that he had done was just to make her unable to leave him.
