It wasn't easy to break out of the crowd surrounding Yixuan, and just as she sat down on a long chair with Shengyu, catching her breath, a ringing sound interrupted them! Suddenly, Yixuan's pupils constricted sharply... The caller was actually... Alston!! Does this mean that the three-month deadline has arrived?
Yi Xuan's hand was trembling, and his gaze involuntarily flickered towards Sheng Yu. At this moment, Sheng Yu's eyebrows were also furrowed, and the can in his hand was slightly deformed! Was he worried about something? Or... was he jealous?
Her fingertips weakly pressed the answer button and put it to her ear, listening: "Hello? Yi Xuan? I think you should have guessed why I'm calling you, right? The three-month deadline is up! In these three months, I've been constantly restraining myself from wanting to see you**, finally... For me, the long three months are over! Now it's my turn to ask for your answer!" Alston's voice had a hint of trembling, he tried his best to suppress the excitement in his heart, perhaps having already confirmed the answer in his mind.
"I really don't understand what kind of feelings I have for Alston. Even before forgiving Sheng Yu, I had thought about whether or not to accept Alston's request, and my heart was wavering at that time, thinking of forgetting everything in the past... But now... What should I do? Should I once again heartlessly hurt him? Let him completely lose hope in love? And forever give up on me? Should I harden my heart?"
Yi Xuan slowly turned her head towards Sheng Yu, and what entered her line of sight was a face with a hint of anger! Sheng Yu's eyes contained a tinge of desolation! Was it because he feared losing her? Or was it because Alston's sincerity would move her? The two locked gazes tightly, their eyes shooting out intense stares, finally... Sheng Yu slowly opened his thin lips and said: "You can't agree to him, you are mine!"
Yi Xuan heard this sentence, and her mouth corners involuntarily rose, and she already knew the answer in her heart.
"Alston, I..." The words of refusal were on the tip of her tongue, but she couldn't bring herself to say them. Yixuan felt that she owed him too much, and this silently given love was something that no one could ever repay.
"Yixuan... don't you want to respond? Or is it that I'm not good enough? Not worth your love?" Alston felt a little disappointed, Yixuan's hesitant tone had already hinted that things wouldn't end happily between them.
"No... it's not like that! Alston, you've done so well~ extremely well~ You're just like a knight protecting me, and it's always been this way! Your efforts have already been enough~ Now I can only say sorry! Because I don't know how to repay your love for me! ........." Yi Xuan's voice was slightly choked, and the corners of her eyes were also moist. Sheng Yu quietly looked at her, watching as the sunlight reflected off the tiny diamonds in her eyes.
"In my opinion, your efforts are worth it! Although I didn't get the return I wanted, but... I'm satisfied. At least in my life, there was a girl named Lan Yixuan who appeared. She made me feel the taste of loving someone for the first time!
Alston's heart is very complicated, mixed with all kinds of emotions, disappointment and pain hitting his heart, hitting it again and again until... the moment when his heart wall collapses."
"Alston, I'm sorry! I really don't know what to do! I hope... you can find a better girl than me, and she'll bring you happiness!" Yixuan covered her mouth, tears streaming down uncontrollably, Shengyu gently wrapped his arms around her, softly stroking her silky hair.
"I hope to find... Yixuan, can we see each other one last time? I want to say a final goodbye! Since you've already rejected me, I should head back to England and continue searching for the girl who will bring me happiness. Can we meet at Dreamy Bar tomorrow?" Alston had completely given up, Yixuan's heart had already fully detached from him the moment she rejected him, and the two figures slowly drifted further apart... until they disappeared from sight.
"En... I'll be there on time ~ Alston sorry!" Yixuan said, hanging up the phone and throwing herself into Shengyu's arms, sobbing. Why do we hurt others while being happy ourselves? Why do those who silently give in ultimately lose love...
