Chapter 238 - Believe me (2/2)

Su Bei averted her gaze from him as she noticed how handsome he was up close.

”No... I don't know,” she mumbled, but it was enough for Leng Shao to hear. Her eyes then turned stern as she looked at him again, her voice harsher than before. ”Now, let me go!”

As Su Bei pushed Leng Shao away, he tightened his arm around her waist. Leng Shao's eyes turned serious again, but for some reason, even though in her confusion and anger, Su Bei could not bring herself to look away.

”Su Bei, how could I convince you that it is not me and Yan Mei who's in the video? How could I convince you to believe me?”

His words were gentle. Su Bei stared into Leng Shao's desperate eyes as his words tugged her heartstrings.

But then, with the video looking like them--looking like Yan Mei and Leng Shao, how could she believe Leng Shao?

”Leng Shao,” Su Bei said his name, ”I'm sorry, but I can't bring myself to believe you. With the video, how could I--”

”I know,” Leng Shao interrupted her, ”But I want you to believe that it is not me--it is not us. Believe me. Honestly, I like Yan Mei--I did, and it was in the past. I could not bring myself to do that with her because we're friends.”

Su Bei felt that Leng Shao was not lying, but deep down in her heart, she still felt hurt and discombobulated.

”Leng Shao...” Now her tone of voice is gentler than it was before. ”I want to believe you... I sincerely do,” she said, but now tears started escaping her eyes. ”But I'm still not convinced, Leng Shao. I'm sorry...”

Now Leng Shao released Su Bei from his hold. He also felt his heart aching as he felt wronged for being thought of that he was having s.e.x with Yan Mei.

”Su Bei...”

Leng Shao didn't know what to say. His eyes started to water as well as Su Bei locked eyes with Leng Shao, both of their hearts aching for each other.

”Leng Shao, I'm sorry... but I want to leave.”

Not saying another word, Su Bei left Leng Shao alone in the vicinity. The moment he left, tears started escaping from his eyes as he watched her retreating figure getting away from him.

Leng Shao wanted to bad to convince Su Bei that it was not him in the video. Leng Shaao wanted so bad to chase after her and tell her repeatedly that it was not him.

But how? With the video looking so convincing, how could she believe him?

Leng Shao stood there as he wondered how he could feel this much for a woman he met recently. It was like Su Bei came into his life like a hurricane and had made a great impact in his life.

It was right here and then that he realized that he should do what he can to get her back even though she was not his in the beginning.

It was right here and then that Leng Shao realized that he had to convince Su Bei with all his might just for her to come back to him--just for her not to distance herself from him.

Leng Shao's fists tightened at his sides. His eyes showed determination as he gritted his teeth, curious as to who did the video--curious as to what his or her intentions are of playing such a thing right in Yan Mei's launch.

Leng Shao frowned as the words of Wang Lu echoed in his head.
