“The child in Li Yan wasn’t yours.”
Ning Huanxin stayed silent for a long time before she slowly spoke out her conclusion. After Zhang Xiao heard her words, he suddenly lifted his head and stared intensely at Ning Huanxin. After a few seconds, he sadly nodded.
That’s right. The child in Li Yan’s womb wasn’t Zhang Xiao’s at all, because, since the very beginning, it was his own one-sided love.
Zhang Xiao liked Li Yan, but kept his feelings hidden. He was very shy and could never express his feelings. He would only occasionally buy her something to make her happy.
However, Li Yan, who was at her young and tender age, had always dreamed of a romantic encounter and a sweet romance.
Li Yan didn’t even know that Zhang Xiao had always liked her.
……
Back then, one of the most expensive things that Zhang Xiao bought was the Xi Xiu brand rogue. He had saved his pocket money for an entire semester to buy it. Zhang Xiao had planned to give it to Li Yan and confess to her.
However, that was the same holiday when he had gone home and brought along a group of classmates with him.
And Li Yan and one of his classmates started dating secretly.
That classmate of his was a handsome young man. The boy had a good and wealthy family background, was an eloquent, well-mannered, and affectionate person with a good sense of humor.
He would have quickly smitten many women. Li Yan was also very innocent then, and with just a few sweet nothings, she was fascinated with him. The two of them soon fell in love, and Zhang Xiao could only watch from a distance in pain.
He knew that he had made a mistake. If he had confessed earlier, perhaps he would still have a chance, but everything was too late…
Because of Li Yan, that student stayed at Zhang Xiao’s home for over ten days before he reluctantly left.
After that, Zhang Xiao also returned to school before school started again. Thankfully, his school wasn’t too far from his house. It only took him about a day and a half to reach there.
