Chapter 898 - Their Time As Lovers Was Already Over (1/2)
Just like that, everyone watching had an unfriendly expression in their eyes as they looked at Leng Zhiyuan. Everyone whispered to one another and did not have a good impression of Leng Zhiyuan.
Leng Zhiyuan was attacked by everyone present, but she was very calm. Her slim waist was upright as she looked at Han Xuan calmly. She was kneeling and bowing down. Could she just let her go after she bowed down?
Then who would let her go, and who would let go of Zhou Yao?
Han Xuan would never understand that she’s the one who couldn’t let go!
At this moment, the quick and steady sound of footsteps that rang out, and a deep masculine voice followed after that made others feel at ease. He said, “Han Xuan, what tantrum are you throwing right now?”
Leng Zhiyuan turned her gaze over to the side to look. Zhou Yao had arrived.
Zhou Yao was dressed in all black. The wind on the rooftop was too great. It made the black leather jacket all puffy. His long, straight legs stopped by her side. He looked at her as he softly asked her, “Are you okay?”
His expressions were all icy cold, and his firm features were all tight and stern. His thin lips were pursed together till they were white. Only his dark gaze that was focused on her had an ounce of warmth, and that was because he was worried about her.
Leng Zhiyuan curled the corners of her lips up before she shook her head and said, “I am alright.”
Han Xuan saw Zhou Yao caring for Leng Zhiyuan the moment he came. Both of them were extremely loving in front of her. The hand that she placed before her chest drooped down without any strength before it was tightly clenched into a fist again.
Zhou Yao turned his gaze over to the side to look at her. His heavy black army boots took a step forward before they were fixed on the floor as he said, “Han Xuan, what did you come here for? I was the one who agreed to the surgery. It was for you to keep your life, and we had no other choice other than sacrificing your legs.”
Han Xuan’s tears fell down one drip at a time. At this moment, her emotions were calm. She looked over at Zhou Yao slowly. Her voice was all hoarse as she asked him, “I am willing to die and do not want to be disabled. This point, Older Brother Zhou, you should be clear about that. Since you have agreed to the surgery, then you should also make arrangements for the rest of my life. Older Brother Zhou, let me ask you, in the future, who is going to take care of me? Who will take responsibility for me?”
Zhou Yao’s features already had a layer of ice on them. After a few seconds, he said, “I will.”
“Okay.” Han Xuan nodded her head and said, “In what capacity?”
“The things that your older brother Han Hong could do for you, I can do the same.”
The man’s simple reply completely shattered all of Han Xuan’s hopes. She had a last glance at Zhou Yao before she closed her eyes as she said, “Older Brother Zhou, you should know that this is not what I wanted.”
She turned over and jumped down directly from the rooftop.
Everyone present on the scene was shocked, and even Leng Zhiyuan took a step forward. She’d always known that Han Xuan’s character was strong and fierce, so she did not expect for it to be to such an extent that she would jump off just like that.
Zhou Yao, who was by her side, had already run over like a bolt of lightning. He pounced over to grab Han Xuan’s hand.
Han Xuan’s was hanging in mid air from the 28th level.
Zhou Yao firmly grabbed her hand and felt that the hand that was in his palm was slipping downwards. His eyes were all red as he stared at Han Xuan and said, “Give your other hand to me.”
Han Xuan was not fearful at all at this moment. Her life was already all dark now. Having lost the man in front of her now, then she was all the more willing to die.
She curled the corners of her lips up and continued to shake her head, “Older Brother Zhou, let go. Let me die.”
Zhou Yao closed his eyes with his long eyelashes, and when he opened his eyes again, his dark gaze was already just like spilled ink as he said, “Han Xuan, do you really want to force us to this stage?”
“Older Brother Zhou, I am not the one forcing you. You are the one forcing me.”
“Okay.” Zhou Yao nodded his head, and when he looked over at Han Xuan again, there was already no trace of warmth in his eyes. He moved his thin lips and directly asked, “What do you want this time? Say it.”
Han Xuan thought that her eyes had already dried up, but when she heard that sentence from him, the corners of her eyes were wet again. She knew that the past ten years with him were all gone. They could not go back into the past anymore.
“Do I still need to say what I want? I want…”
“That is not possible!” Zhou Yao interrupted her. His eyes were all red as he stared at her and slowly said, “I, Zhou Yao, in my entire life, will only have one wife.”
