Chapter 278 - Everything Is Over (2/2)

Jiang Yijun only glanced at her. He did not intend to give her the phone.

”There has to be an end, isn't there?” Her face was haggard, but her eyes were as bright as ever.

Jiang Ruolan looked at the familiar number on the phone, smiled, and picked it up. She didn't even wait for the person on the other end of the phone to open his mouth before she smiled and greeted him, ”President Xian sent me to the hospital last night and is now calling to offer his condolences. How can I be so lucky?”

”Ruolan.”

”Forget it, Xian Zihao. Actually, I think it's good for us to be just friends. Now that I have a good friend like President Xian, no matter where I am or what I do in the future, I will feel proud! You can't keep thinking that I will be sad that I need you to call me to comfort me, right? Hehe, President Xian, there's no need for this. After meeting each other, one could become an unmarried husband and wife. After meeting each other for only two days, one could talk about marriage and go to bed for two to three months. It seemed that even if you loved me dearly, how much would you love me? That's what you think too, Xian Zihao.”

”No!”

His answer was resolute and decisive, but Jiang Ruolan didn't want to continue talking about it. She tightened her grip on the phone and said quietly, ”Xian Zihao, do you know what I hate the most? I really hate pestering. Endlessly pestering.”

Jiang Ruolan couldn't see his expression over the phone, but that was enough. A smart person like Xian Zihao, how could he not understand the meaning behind her words?

Love or not, this was a relationship that should not have belonged to her. She did not want to fight for it, nor did she want it anymore.

The phone was silent. Only his shallow breath could be heard, and Jiang Ruolan knew that he understood it from beginning to end. She was asking for a way out and if Xian Zihao had the slightest pity on her, he would let her go.

Jiang Ruolan smiled. Perhaps the whole story, even at the end, needed a complete closure. She really wanted to see that man tear his heart out for her and lose his mind, but a woman's heart was so small. Perhaps if she waited, he could give her a reason to stay and know the sequel to the story.

Jiang Ruolan silently listened to his breathing on the other end of the phone. In the phone, this was just a set of data, just a signal connected to a signal. You felt like he was getting closer, but he would never be able to get closer.

She hung up.

The cell phone screen gradually turned dark. Jiang Yijun looked at her face as she slowly put down the phone. ”Jiang Ruolan.”

Jiang Ruolan leaned against the headboard, ”Jiang Yijun, everything is over.”

Jiang Yijun looked at her for a long time before saying, ”I'm sorry.”

Jiang Ruolan was stunned and looked at him with amusement. ”What?”

He said again, ”I'm sorry.”

Jiang Ruolan sighed as she glanced at him sideways.

”You did that to protect me. You want my life to return to its original trajectory, and you don't want our life to be disturbed by people who don't have anything to do with us. Your original intention was for me, so why would I blame you?”

This was the first time she heard Jiang Yijun apologize for something that actually had nothing to do with him.

However, this consolation was extremely precious to her.

This burden was too heavy. Although Jiang Ruolan did not know if it was considered the end or not, it was at least the end.
