Chapter 844: Romance In A Foreign Country
Can you be friends after breaking up with a person whom you have really loved before?
What a joke. How can it be possible?
“Li Chen and I also cannot be friends,” Yun An said. He sounded dejected. Every person who had been out of love would feel like a cup of bitter coffee. The tip of their tongue would always taste a tinge of bitterness.
Shen Qianshu heard his story before, and she felt that it struck a chord. “Actually, Yun An, have you ever thought that the person you love is also only a substitute? You have also said before that Li Chen was very similar to your lover. Are you also being empathetic?”
“I don’t know,” Yun An said as he shook her head lightly. “I have also been racking my brains. I am thinking whether both of us are in the wrong. Once I have the thought that perhaps the person that I love is only a substitute, I won’t be able to have the courage to blame him again.”
Both of them lightly clinked their glasses and drank a mouthful of champagne.
Yun An smiled as he looked at Shen Qianshu. “You… actually make me look at you differently. After Ye Ling died, you were depressed and gave up all hope for a period of time. However, you recovered very quickly. Back then, I had spent so much time before I accepted the fact that he was gone.”
“I… am really ashamed.”
If Ye Ling had really died, she did not even dare to think of how much time she would need to walk out from it.
“This was just imagery.”
Yun An smiled. “How did you get to know Mr. Ye?”
“Seven years ago, I was his… palliative caretaker.” Shen Qianshu smiled slightly. “At the start, I didn’t understand him and only felt that he was lifeless. I could not find any traces of life in him. I thought that he must be very seriously sick and guessed that he would not live long. His butler changed one maid after another for him. No one could stay. I guessed that no one could make him happy; hence, his butler kept searching and searching. Finally, he found me, someone who could make him happy. Perhaps, he wanted to let him live comfortably in the days before he died. Of course, this was my guess. I also did not want to ask. To me, that was a very happy period of time, though it might not necessarily be a good past to him.”
Yun An said, “But he has lived on.”
“Yes, it must be my credit.”
Even if it is for a little princess, it is also my credit. Without me, where will there be a little princess, isn’t it?
“You and… which person who died?”
“He… ” Yun An showed a soft smile. He seemed to be fondly recalling and also seemed sentimental. “I picked him up from the rubbish bin.”
Shen Qianshu stared at her. “… ”
Are you f*cking teasing me?
“It’s true!” Yun An smiled as he said. “That year during my graduation trip, I took a lot of money to Las Vegas and gambled without any restraint. I won a big sum of money, which attracted some people with evil intentions as they were jealous. They wanted to snatch my cheque. I panicked and lost my way outside the casino. I hid in the rubbish bin and escaped from their tracks. But I discovered him. He… was not in good condition and had a gunshot wound. There was so much blood flowing out, and he was still holding the gun in his hand. I was so shocked back then, and I kept thinking that I had witnessed a disastrous matter that would get me killed.”
“Who would have known that he was very gentle, and he purposely told me that there were no bullets in his gun. His strength was exhausted, and he did not allow me to call the police. Subsequently, I brought him home.”
Shen Qianshu made a ‘wow’ exclamation. This kind of thing was very common in other countries.
“So it was a romance in a foreign country.”
Yun An replied. “Yes. It’s very similar to yours. At the start, we thought that it was a romance in a foreign country. Thereafter, we learned that it was predestined fate that we could not escape from.”
