Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As the two chatted, the dumplings depleted quickly .
Tang Chen walked in when Lin Wanwan was washing the dishes .
“Let me help . ”
He rolled up his sleeves, and his firm arms were exposed . Although it wasn’t something that he did often, it looked so natural and almost enjoyable . He was a great family man .
“Lin Wanwan . ”
“What happened?”
Tang Chen’s heart skipped a beat when he met her bright eyes . He felt an urge to caress her cheeks .
His sanity took over and he shook his head, then placed the plates inside the cabinet .
“Nothing, I just feel happy to be here . ”
He would trade everything that he had to live a simple life with the woman he loved .
“…” Lin Wanwan’s movements halted for a second . She could only pretend that she didn’t hear a thing .
Back in the living room, Lin Wanwan grabbed her handbag . “Tang Chen, I’m leaving . What about you?”
“I want to sleep for a while more . ”
“Alright . ”
Lin Wanwan walked to the door . When she turned back, Tang Chen was standing where he was, staring into her eyes with a depressing smile .
“Tang Chen…”
“If you feel bad, I need a girl to warm my bed . ”
Eh .
Lin Wanwan sighed and left, holding her feelings deep within .
The moment that door was shut, Tang Chen’s lips lost their charm .
She was always so firm on her stand, never giving him any hope .
Lin Wanwan drove to Fan Xiaochen’s address .
It was an old neighborhood, and it’s said that it would go under demolition soon . There weren’t many people living in it, and those who did were mainly the older ones .
The rusty door was half-open, and the place was in no way sound-proof . Lin Wanwan could hear the two men’s conversation loud and clear .
“Xiaochen, I’m sorry . ”
A soft and gentle voice was filled with sorrow and regret .
“Let’s break up . My mom cut her wrist yesterday, and she said that she would jump off the building if we don’t break up . I love you, but I can’t leave my parents to suffer… In fact, I found a girlfriend weeks ago, and we are getting married next month . ”
Lin Wanwan understood the situation .
This was the turning point that Tang Chen was talking about .
She couldn’t resist peeking through the gap .
Fan Xiaochen didn’t have the most handsome face, but it was attractive in its own way . He wasn’t hysterical as Lin Wanwan had imagined, but his eyes had turned red nonetheless .
“Xu Nian, do you remember our vows?”
The man named Xu Nian had a face prettier than a girl’s . He didn’t dare look Fan Xiaochen in the eyes and cried in his arms .
“Xiaochen, I do remember . However… I don’t have a choice . If you truly love me, let me go . Although we are apart, my heart will always be with you!”
Lin Wanwan felt the cringe .
Why did those sound like the words of a prude?
“Xiaochen, I’m sorry . Please forget about me!”
Xu Nian bit his lips and ran off with the luggage in his hands .
Good thing that Lin Wanwan was quick on her feet or she would have been spotted .
Fan Xiaochen stood in place, and it looked like he had lost his soul .
“I’ll be waiting…” he mumbled with empty eyes .
Lin Wanwan sighed .
Fan Xiaochen was a romantic . Xu Nian… not so much .
