”I'm not going —” Win shook his head desperately, then tightened his grip on Ihao's arm and spoke stubbornly and firmly.
This time, no matter what, she would not leave! Back then, if he hadn't heard that they were at a disadvantage, he would have been separated from her temporarily, and things wouldn't have ended up like this. She didn't want to leave, she really didn't want to leave!
He just smiled coldly, as if he was mocking himself for being so warm and cold. ”Cold and warm, do you think I'm still the same Ihao? Hehe … Hehe … You're wrong, I'm not that Ihao. ”That Yi Hao is already dead. Haha …”
”You are him …” ”You've always been him …” Seeing that Yi Hao was clearly laughing, but his eyes were red, she was certain that the man she was hugging was the person she had been waiting for. ”Brother Yi Hao …”
The four men standing to the side looked at the scene in front of them. They looked at each other for a few seconds, then tactfully left the office. The two of them were the only ones left in the huge and luxurious office.
At the same time, it was also not quiet.
The office was so quiet that only the occasional sob of a woman could be heard, and no other sound could be heard.
However, in the office, waves of emotions surged through the two of them as they hugged each other, unable to calm down for a long time.
After being silent in the office for a while, only then did Warmth say in a low voice with a sobbing tone, ”Brother Yi Hao, did you know? I've lost, I've lost again! No, I've always been a loser, I've never won before! ”
He just listened in silence, his eyes rolling back and forth as he stared out the window.
”Do you know how much I like you? From the first time I saw you, do you know how much I like you? ” Thinking back to the first time they'd met, warm and sweet at the same time, but also as if a needle had pierced deep, painful. Although that youth was a bit down on his luck, the noble light that radiated from his eyes was like that of a king's. She would never be able to move her eyes away from him for the rest of her life.
”Do you remember? At that time, I always tried to pester you. Do you think that it's just a little girl that likes to play? Just curious about new things? No... That's because I immediately recognized you as a man that I've taken a liking to, and that's why I'm pestering you! ”
”Perhaps, you won't believe that an eight-year-old girl will know what love is, but I do know!”
”Brother Yi Hao … Although I don't know what happened to you ten years ago or how you got through it, do you know how I did it? ”
”I cried and looked for you for three days and three nights …” But, no matter how much I look, I just can't find you! ” He still ached at the thought of the day he learned that Ihao had left him. What a fatal blow it would be to someone who had lost the one he liked most and who might never see again for the rest of his life.
Warm hugged Ihao's back and rolled away. Hot tears fell rapidly from the corners of his eyes until they soaked his shirt and soaked into his skin.
Hearing the warm words, Yi Hao's deep eyes suddenly flashed. He seemed to be able to imagine such a scene, to think of warm and cold crying as they searched every corner of the place where they had once been, searching for traces of him …
The garden, the pond, under the sycamore tree, the green lawn, the rooftop of the tallest building in the Leng Clan... Were those places filled with her tears?
Inexplicably, his heart suddenly felt very, very painful!
But could he still believe it? Should he believe it?
”This is the chain you gave me back then …” She was a little depressed to see that he was still unmoved, but she didn't give up. Ever since he was young, had he been left out many times in the beginning? She sniffed, then withdrew her arms from around him and walked over to him, carefully pulling the chain he'd given her from his pocket.
When some of the chains appeared in front of his eyes, the depths of his eyes finally changed. He saw that the chain, which had once shone in the sunlight, had grown dim. He wanted to reach out and touch the chain, but he still did not have the courage.
That chain was given to him by his mother, saying that it was a family heirloom and must be given to the girl he liked the most in his life. She also said that as long as the girl didn't mind, she would be able to spend the rest of her life with him.
Looking at the long faded necklace in front of him, he suddenly understood why his mother had said those words to him.
Heh ~, this chain wasn't some family treasure at all, it was a very ordinary silver chain. A young miss like her, who was used to wearing real gold, silver, and jewelry, could easily figure out its value. However … He never imagined that she would still be here …
”Since you left, I …” Warmth sniffed with his nose, then raised his hand to wipe the tears off his face. After calming down, he slowly said, ”Every night, I would wear this chain to sleep. Feel, wear it, I will think you still stay by my side, never left me! Actually, there was another photo. However, it was torn apart by me in one breath! And this chain was also thrown by me at that time! ”
”But after throwing it away, I spent an entire night searching for it!”
Thinking of her extreme actions before, Warmth bit his lip, and involuntarily tightened his grip on the chain. She couldn't bear to part with the chain, much less completely pull Ihao out of her heart.
Having loved him for ten years, waiting for him for ten years, thinking about him for ten years … It did not mean that he could give up just because he had given up.
”Since you've already thrown it away, why did you need to find it again?” Yi Hao kept the strange light in his eyes and said coldly.
He would not easily make a decision until he had cleared his mind. He did not want to risk his life just because of a moment of recklessness. To move, and cause a mistake that can never be made up for in a lifetime.
”I... ”I …” Warmth looked at the calmness in Ihao's eyes with hazy tears, as if he hadn't been moved by her words.
It shouldn't be like this. If he still liked her, then he would definitely express his feelings. Could it be … He doesn't like me at all?
