786 Their Love Had Become a Thing of the Pas (1/2)

Many years ago, she had asked to meet Lu Jinwen at Bangkok Number 1, and not Bangkok Number 7. That day, she had waited for an entire day and night at Bangkok Number 1, but he had never turned up.

She would never have imagined that the note had been tampered with.

It was only when Mo'er handed this note over to her that she realized the truth.

Tang Chenyi's handsome face was devoid of any expression. As he was driving, he pointed at the screen of a black notebook and said, ”Mom, this Bangkok Number 7 is a swamp with no signs of life. It is enshrouded in a toxic gas which can poison one if one were to breathe it in, especially for a prolonged period of time. In contrast, Bangkok Number 1 is a beautiful garden. These two places are vastly different, like heaven and hell.”

Lin Xuanji raised her eyes and peered through the rear view mirror at the luxury car which was tailing closely behind. She smiled. ”So that year, he went to Bangkok Number 7, while I went to Bangkok Number 1.”

”Yes, Lu Jinwen was there. He got poisoned and was saved by Lin Xuanyin, who absorbed the toxic gas into herself in order to save him. This resulted in her heart failure condition. To repay his gratitude, Lu Jinwen saved Lin Xuanyin and gave her the status of Mrs Lu,” Tang Chenyi said.

So Lin Xuanyin had saved Lu Jinwen…

Upon hearing these words, a tinge of mockery appeared on Lin Xuanji's tender face. Soon after, she clasped her hand to her chest, where her heart was.

”Mom, does your heart hurt again? I've sent someone to look for a compatible heart. If we manage to find one, we will undergo the heart transplant operation immediately.”

Lin Xuanji shook her head. ”It's no use. Lu Jinwen has been looking for a compatible heart for Lin Xuanyin all these years, but to no avail. Lin Xuanyin and I are twins, and our hearts are different from typical people. There's no one in the world who will have compatible hearts with us.”

Tang Chenyi's almond-shaped eyes became somber.

Lin Xuanji's long lashes quivered and her soft voice was laced with regret. ”That's enough. The love and hatred that has lasted for so many years will end with me. I initially thought we had made a mistake on our journey of love, but that was not the truth. I am the person he loved all along.”

After so many years, she had finally understood his feelings. He loved her.

This ruthless and heartless emperor loved her all along. She understood his ambiguous feelings towards her.

But they had missed it nonetheless.

Their love had become a thing of the past.

It was too late.

…

In the apartment.

Lin Xuanji entered the room. She stood by the window and drew the curtains. There was a luxury car parked downstairs. He did not leave.

He had parked his car beneath her apartment.

She turned around and entered the bathroom to bathe.

Whoosh. Warm water filled the bathtub while milk and fresh flower petals floated about in the water. She removed her clothes and lay inside the bathtub.

Ding dong. The doorbell rang. Someone was knocking on the door.

Who could it be?

Lin Xuanji did not budge. She did not intend to open the door. Besides Lu Jinwen, who else could it be?

She closed her eyes gently.

At this moment, the bathroom door was suddenly pushed open and someone barged in.

Lin Xuanji immediately opened her eyes and glanced sideways. There was a tall and handsome figure standing by the door. Lu Jinwen had entered.

She was still in the bath!

Lin Xuanji sat up immediately from her comfortable lying position and shielded her chest with her hands. She glared at the man. ”Lu Jinwen, how did you come in?”
