Chapter 996: Chapter 996: You Only Say You Like Me, But It’s Just Empty Words
"In the future, you don’t need to give me flowers." Shi Qingqing stared at him, very seriously, "I don’t think we’re very likely."
"Do you have someone you like?" Zhao Ye asked.
"Yeah, a man I’ve liked for more than four years." Shi Qingqing suddenly smiled.
The snowflakes fell on her and melted instantly.
"Does he like you?"
"Probably... doesn’t like me!"
"Will you give up on liking him?" Zhao Ye asked.
"No!"
"Then I won’t either." Zhao Ye said with focused determination, "If you ever get tired and don’t want to like him anymore, I still like you."
"I don’t want to delay you. You are a good person, really. Being with you is very pleasant, happy, and comfortable, but my heart is not moved..."
"Qingqing, I’m not in a hurry, I’ll wait for you."
Watching his car leave, indeed, that’s how things often are in this world.
The person she doesn’t like loves her deeply.
But the person she likes is far away, eager to push her away.
The snow above stopped suddenly.
She turned her head, Chen Zhinan was wearing a black coat, holding an umbrella, standing behind her.
She didn’t speak; she turned and walked away.
"Shi Qingqing!"
"We have nothing to talk about!" Shi Qingqing paused only for a moment, then walked further inside.
"You still like me, isn’t there anything to say about that?"
How could he think this way?
Because she likes him, does he think he can act recklessly?
Let her go if he wants, keep her if he wishes?
Shi Qingqing turned back, smiling at him, "I have nothing to say. I’ve already said it before; some words don’t need to be repeated. To speak them is such a shame; I think it’s better to keep them inside."
"I’m sorry."
Shi Qingqing was taken aback. Why say sorry?
Just because he doesn’t like her, should he be sorry?
Then should she also say sorry to the man earlier?
"There’s no need to be sorry. You don’t owe me anything. You just don’t like me, that’s all. It’s because I’m not good enough, didn’t win your heart! I’ve never blamed you."
She always thought it was because she wasn’t good enough.
She knew the present Chen Zhinan was always remarkable even back then.
Although he worked for someone else, in that company, except for the boss, he was the greatest.
The boss often didn’t even show up.
The company was based abroad, yet it was first-class.
Even piling up Shi Family’s banks couldn’t match it.
The distance between them grew farther and farther.
"I’m sorry, I really didn’t know it would lead to such a big outcome back then. A lot happened with the Chen Family then, I didn’t want to..."
"You don’t need to say it!" Shi Qingqing interrupted him, "It’s all in the past, right? I’m almost about to forget you. Why do you have to do this? You’ve come back, can’t you just do your thing? Why do you have to appear before me? What are you trying to do!"
"I just don’t want to see you like you were before!"
"What was wrong with how I was before? Chen Zhinan! What exactly do you think you are to me? You are not my parents! You have no right to control me!"
"I’ll marry you!"
Shi Qingqing thought maybe the snow had gotten so heavy it blocked her ears.
How did she hear such absurd words?
Chen Zhinan said he would marry her?
"Do you think just because you say you’ll marry me, I’ll agree? I won’t marry someone who doesn’t love me. That’s what you said! Let’s just end it here! Please get out of my world!"
"What exactly do you want!"
"I told you, leave!"
"So, is your talk of liking me just lip service?"
