C45 (1/2)

She came over and squatted in front of me, crying as she looked at me. She seemed to have thought of something and her eyes reddened. ”Manman won't cry. She'll get better. She'll definitely get better.”

She hugged me and comforted me softly. ”Daddy will be in heaven to protect us Manman. It's okay. Everything will be fine.”

Was she so open-minded because she accepted the truth? Now that it was her turn to comfort me, I felt even worse. Leaning on her shoulder, I could feel all the pain and sadness in my heart dissipating as I cried.

My mother patted my back and comforted me.

After crying for a while, he had vented out all of his pent-up emotions. However, he did not suppress his emotions, and his mind had also cleared up a lot.

The next day, Song Wangjiang appeared at my door on time, as if nothing had happened, and helped me prepare for tomorrow's funeral.

Looking at how busy he was and how he hadn't even drunk a single sip of water, I felt really bad. I walked up to him and said, ”Wang Jiang, you should go rest. I'll take care of this place myself.”

Song Wangjiang turned around and looked at me, smiled and said, ”I'm not tired, but you, you haven't slept for a few nights right? Go rest, I'm here. ”

He looked at me with concern. The deep affection in his eyes made me not dare to meet his gaze. I couldn't help but think back to the time when we were together. He was the same, thinking about everything for me. But then we split up because we were admitted to different universities, and there wasn't even a quarrel or a third person, so naturally we broke up.

Perhaps, it was because he didn't like her deeply enough.

After withdrawing from my memories, I raised my head and met Song Wangjiang's sincere gaze. Song Wangjiang couldn't help but reach out to hug me. ”Manman, in the future, let me take care of you, okay? ”I hope you don't find me suitable for you.”

My expression stiffened slightly. I raised my hand slightly, wanting to embrace him back. In the end, I withdrew it.

Since there was no way to respond to his feelings, she shouldn't have given him any hope.

I took a deep breath and pushed him away firmly. ”Wang Jiang, let's talk.”

He looked at me deeply, and gradually, his expression dimmed. He smiled wryly, his eyes filled with pain. ”Manman, are we really unable to go back?”

”Wang Jiang, we can't go back any longer.” I turned my face away as the corner of my mouth curled up into a forced smile. ”I've divorced and I've gone through a lot. How could I possibly be with you?”

”Manman, I don't care about that. You're the one I love.”

”You don't care, nor does your family?”

”I know that you still have feelings for me, but all of this is just regret and obsession that we weren't together in the past. These days, you have helped me a lot, so I am very grateful to you. I hope that you can understand that I have always regarded you as a friend and only a friend.”

After Song Wang Jiang heard what I said, he was silent for a long time before saying, ”Man Man, I love you. No matter if it was before or now, I was too cowardly and did not dare to fight for you. But now, I want to fight for you.”

The firmness in his voice made my heart skip a beat, and I looked up at him in disbelief.

”I know you still can't accept me. I can wait, wait until the day you are willing to accept me, then don't push me away, and don't even give me the chance to love you, okay?” He took me by the shoulder and looked at me earnestly and affectionately.

Perhaps it was due to the deep emotion and determination in his eyes that I didn't refute his words. My heart was in a mess as I hastily shifted my gaze away.

I knew that I shouldn't have hesitated, shouldn't have been soft-hearted, but at this moment, for some reason, I couldn't reject his plea.

After settling everything, Song Wang Jiang sent me home. I originally wanted to invite him to come in, but after thinking for a while, I gave up.
