Chapter 214 The Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Role in the Substitute Article (35)
Dreaming about their past...
How dare he bring it up?
Jiang Wan looked over calmly, as if she were looking at a stranger. "Our past, how Master Pei played tricks on people, how he deceived people's feelings, how he trampled on people's sincerity?"
"No, I..." Pei Youan wanted to defend himself, but when the words came to his lips, all that was left was embarrassment.
He didn't even have the courage to continue.
Isn't what she said true?
Their past is nothing but deception.
All that sweet life he missed was a huge lie.
I used her as a substitute and made fun of her...
She had gotten out of that huge lie, but he was obsessed with the past, trying to deceive himself into thinking that she still had feelings for him.
Tears glistened in his scarlet eyes, and his hand holding the door handle dropped limply.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, someone behind him called out to him.
"Wait a moment!"
Hope rekindled in Pei Youan's eyes.
An awkward emotion flashed across her fair face as she turned and walked inside.
Pei Youan took a small step forward.
But when he saw his wet shoes and socks, he resisted the urge to follow in.
"Ding--"
Pei Youan's attention was all on Jiang Wan, and he didn't notice the sound of the elevator.
Until he heard footsteps.
The footsteps started and stopped.
Stayed in the dark.
A few minutes passed.
The person in the room came out holding a cardboard box.
She gave him the carton.
Pei Youan lowered his eyes to take a look, and when he saw what was inside, his pupils couldn't help but shrink.
In order to pursue Jiang Wan, he had put a lot of effort into asking others where ordinary young couples would go on dates. The ceramic cups above are a pair of couple cups.
It was handmade by the two of them in a studio.
It is still well preserved, and you can see how much the owner cherishes it.
As for his one, he disappeared long ago without knowing when.
The box is filled with every little detail between the two of them.
"Pei Youan, whether you believe it or not, my feelings for you were not mixed with any interests, and had nothing to do with your identity, but just because of you.
I have a clear conscience about this relationship. It has never been my fault that we have come to this point. Now that it has come to this, don't make these self-proclaimed affectionate attempts to keep me. Your appearance only reminds me how ridiculous the past was. Just think of it as me begging you to let me go."
He tightened his hands around the cardboard box. Although the box was not heavy, he felt extremely tired and his arms were shaking. He blinked quickly to hide the moisture in his eyes and said "OK" with a sob.
She took out a red string from her pajamas pocket. On the red string hung a silver ring with the letters "JP" engraved on the inside of the ring. It was also a ring that the two of them had made by hand.
He also remembered every step of the production process, from shaping to polishing, every step was done with care. He put the ring on her ring finger and promised her a future together without hesitation.
Jiang Wan took a step forward and hung the red rope around his neck.
Her eyes lingered on the ring. "Once, I also resented why you treated me like this, and I wished you would die. It would be a lie to say I don't resent you now, but time has healed everything. I hope you can find the right person, and don't let others down again."
The tears in his eyes finally fell one by one.
Just as she was about to close the door, Pei Youan couldn't help but ask: "Can you tell me why you chose Pei Tingchuan, why him?"
There was still a glimmer of hope in his heart.
Even though she had denied it many times, he still wanted to hear from her that the initial reason she was with Pei Tingchuan was because she knew Pei Tingchuan's identity and wanted to use Pei Tingchuan to take revenge on himself and make him regret it.
The system reminded Jiang Wan of the target's location.
A familiar scent lingered at the tip of her nose. Jiang Wan didn't need to look to know who was standing at the corner.
She seemed afraid that her parents in the room would hear her, so she lowered her voice, but people in the corridor could clearly hear what she said.
"Our breakup was just a daily routine for you. You enjoyed the praise on the Internet and the admiration from others. You probably never considered the pain I was in because I couldn't even go out because of being forced by others."
"You don't know how much courage it took for me to go see you. We've been dating for a year, and you knew I was in poor health, but when you saw me fall ill, you didn't even want to call an ambulance for me...
After I woke up, I was still faced with overwhelming scolding. At that time, I felt that the whole world was dark. In a trance, I stepped onto the rooftop of the hospital. The moment my fingers touched the railing, it was Pei Tingchuan who grabbed me. That was the real end of us, and also the beginning of Pei Tingchuan and I. ”
Every word turned into a sharp knife stabbing into his heart.
My heart feels like it's being tortured.
Pei Youan's jawline was tense and he clenched his back teeth tightly.
The suffocating pain made him almost unable to keep his balance.
"No matter who he is at that time, you would fall in love with him." He wanted to say that it was not love, it was just gratitude, just falling in love with the grace of saving his life.
Jiang Wan sneered.
Laugh at the absurdity in his words.
"I told you that this is just the beginning for us. Don't think that others think the same as you do. You are so stupid that you don't even know what love is. Even if it's really because of this, so what? He is not you. From him, I have learned how to save myself. Even if we really break up one day, it will be a peaceful breakup."
"I'm sorry." His voice was hoarse and his tone was tense.
Jiang Wan shook her head: "Many things in this world cannot be whitewashed with just an apology. Your apology comforts your own heart and cannot make up for anything."
"I know, but I really don't know what I can do for you. I can only say sorry to you."
"No, there are many things you can do. Clarifying the past is far more useful than apologizing. An apology is the cheapest thing to do."
Pei Youan unconsciously avoided her all-seeing eyes.
It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he doesn't dare.
I don’t dare put myself online to be judged by everyone.
He thought he was fearless and had been self-centered since childhood, but now he realizes that he has been a coward from the beginning to the end.
The door closed in front of him.
The footsteps in the room gradually faded away.
Pei Youan held the cardboard box and turned around with his heavy legs.
The person standing at the corner finally took a step forward and appeared before him.
The two looked at each other in silence.
Pei Youan's eyes stayed on the milk tea in his hand.
