Chapter 1288
At this point, Qiao Yanze's tone became more and more difficult: "No matter how narcissistic I am, I can't deceive myself anymore... So, you probably really don't love me anymore. Maybe you still have feelings for me, but that Emotions are too fragile to support any setbacks and storms.”
Li Yinian closed his eyes suddenly, and his face that was a little flushed after taking a bath turned pale again.
She felt like her throat was blocked by something. The pain and despair in the man's tone almost completely defeated her.
She subconsciously wanted to refute, but her mind went blank, and she couldn't even say "no".
Two seconds later, she realized that there was actually no need for her to refute - he was determined that she no longer loved him, so he could let go completely. This was the result she had been pursuing, wasn't it?
But... why did she feel so uncomfortable, with her eyes burning and difficulty breathing?
"So, I hope that before the results come out, you can break through that mental barrier and accept me. If you love me enough, you will at least not be so resistant..." He laughed softly, "It's a pity..."
Li Yinian bit his lip hard, and his eye circles finally couldn't help but turn red.
This man was indeed cunning enough. She should have been angry and even hated him for his actions, but the pain and despair in his voice were so deep that she even felt a little guilty.
In the past few years, it was really uncomfortable for her to be forced to stay with him. But she knew very well that this man was far from happy or satisfied. He was the one who had been refusing to let go, the one who had been chasing her, and the one who had been rejected and even ridiculed by her.
Li Yinian often couldn't figure out how he accumulated courage time and time again and where his persistence came from. But she could at least see how difficult a one-sided pursuit was.
Is it because he really loves her so much, or is it because he is almost paranoid about unwillingness?
She took a deep breath and finally suppressed the chaotic thoughts, along with the guilt.
"Qiao Yanze, I have told you countless times." She spat out these words almost mechanically, "I no longer love you. If you insist on knowing the reason, maybe it started when I took away that child... "
The man looked at her and his breathing slowed down unconsciously, as if his rapid breathing had become a burden.
"So, this is your decision." He nodded slightly, "No matter what the result is, you can't accept me anymore, right?"
Li Yinian closed his eyes and didn't speak for a long time.
She had always been certain of this fact and never thought that maybe she was wrong from the beginning. So much so that when she seriously thought about this possibility, she felt a sense of absurd confusion in her heart.
But……
Even if everything was just a misunderstanding at the beginning, how could they go back to the past after experiencing so much?
What's more, he is destined to be Fengqiao's heir in the future. How can an heir have no children? Maybe he doesn't care, but it's impossible for the elders of the Qiao family to accept this. Even if she softens her heart and returns to him, it is still impossible for them to reach the end.
It was nothing more than another painful torture.
"That's right." She felt as if her soul was floating above, watching this scene, watching her calmly and indifferently utter these two words.
