A trace of bitterness slowly welled up in her heart, yet on the surface, she could only pretend to be extrely calm.
She smiled slightly and said, "It’s nothing, just nothing much to do, strolling around nearby, saw your car in the yard, so I ca in to have a look..."
Song Yansheng glanced at her and said, "Sorry, Miss Chu, I’m afraid I can’t entertain you today, as my wife is in the room!"
The word "wife" truly struck Chu Jingyun; even as she tried hard to maintain her composure, she couldn’t control the slight pallor in her face.
Taking a deep breath, she finally said, "It’s okay, I... still have sothing to do, I was planning to leave soon anyway!"
Song Yansheng responded with an "Mm," and said, "If that’s the case, I won’t see you off, Miss Chu!"
After speaking, he gave a slight nod and turned to go inside.
Chu Jingyun opened her mouth, but the door had already been closed by the man, leaving her with only his cold silhouette and an icy door.
The fingers holding her handbag gradually tightened, red nails digging into the rhinestones on the bag, but ultimately unable to change anything, she turned and left.
In the kitchen, Shi Nuan stood by the window, watching a woman’s figure walk away, her eyes lightly trembling.
Even without seeing her face, she recognized that it was Chu Jingyun.
Chu Jingyun wasn’t curious about this place, so her coming here didn’t seem strange.
But Song Yansheng’s indifference toward Chu Jingyun was much more than she had imagined!
Other things Shi Nuan couldn’t see through, but Chu Jingyun wasn’t the woman Song Yansheng held dear in his heart.
But perhaps, she would know of the woman, maybe she had even seen her...
"Nuannuan, are you in the kitchen?"
Outside, Song Yansheng’s soft call ca through, Shi Nuan was startled, quickly pulled the curtain and walked out, responding, "Coming!"
Shi Nuan reached the kitchen doorway just as Song Yansheng arrived there.
Instinctively, a hand grasped hers, his peripheral vision glancing toward the direction of the curtains, and he softly said, "The movie isn’t finished, should we continue?"
Shi Nuan’s face turned slightly red, she couldn’t recall a single thing about the movie’s plot.
And earlier, if not for Chu Jingyun’s arrival, she feared she might have already been with Song Yansheng...
She shook her head and said, "No, I’m done... the rain outside has stopped, I want to take a walk in the yard!"
Take a walk in the yard?
Song Yansheng pondered the aning of Shi Nuan’s words, chuckled lightly, nodded, and said, "Sure... let’s go for a walk!"
...
After getting into the car, Chu Jingyun slowly drove away from the Dong Garden, watching the yard grow more distant in the rearview mirror, her heart ultimately feeling bitter.
Loving soone who doesn’t love you back is very painful.
She had already known and was prepared for this.
Lin Junyi said she had other options, she understood his aning, and she knew his feelings for her.
But she couldn’t, she couldn’t just give up on Song Yansheng like that.
Even knowing it might be hopeless, knowing that she might be stuck on this person for the rest of her life...
She just couldn’t do it.
Song Yansheng might just be her life’s calamity, knowing she couldn’t escape the disaster, she still stubbornly moved toward it, unwilling to turn back.
That’s when the phone in her pocket rang, she took it out and glanced at it, it was Song Qingyang.
After taking a deep breath, she plugged in her earphones and answered.
"Hello?"
"Hello? Sister Jing Yun, it’s , did you... et Second Uncle?"
Chu Jingyun’s eyes dimd for a mont, but she still responded with an "Mm" and said, "I did."
