Similarly, the moment Qiao Ning walked in, he saw her too!

For reasons unknown, the instant Chai Xiyang saw her, his heart rate suddenly accelerated. His eyes saw only her presence!

Previously, he never thought Qiao Ning was particularly attractive or beautiful. But at this moment, he had a feeling that he might regret for life if he dropped the ball..

Qiao Ning’s feelings upon seeing him, though, were complicated.

After all, he was once the man she loved the most. Now, she no longer loved him, but he had fallen for her.

Therefore, the subtle complexity in her heart was ineffable.

Qiao Ning quickly approached him and sat across from him, asking casually, “Have you ordered?”

Chai Xiyang’s eyes deepened, he handed her the menu and said, “You choose.”

Without being coy, Qiao Ning quickly picked a few dishes. Today, she came here intending to accompany him for a meal, air out what was between them, and then leave.

But once all the dishes were served, Chai Xiyang remained silent.

Ever since she arrived, he had been observing her nonstop without uttering a word, just silently watching her.

Qiao Ning didn’t mind him, she focused on eating her meal at her own pace, unhurried and composed.

Soon, she was almost done eating.

Yet, Chai Xiyang’s share remained untouched.

Wiping her mouth and taking a sip of water, Qiao Ning finally looked at him.

“I’ve accompanied you for a meal. If you don’t have anything to say, I will leave.” Saying this, she took out a cheque to offer him, but as soon as she pushed it across, her hand was grasped by him!

Qiao Ning’s eyelashes fluttered, her forehead creased faintly, “What are you doing?” she asked.

Chai Xiyang’s eyes burned intensely, as if he’d made a major decision, he said in a deep voice, “Qiao Ning, can we start over?”

Pulling her hand back swiftly, Qiao Ning responded gently, “The reason I came today was to officially tell you that I no longer have feelings for you! Hence, I will not accept you, I will not return your feelings!”

A heaviness suddenly descended upon Chai Xiyang’s heart.

“You truly don’t love me anymore?” he asked, eyes fixed on her.

“Yes.” Qiao Ning nodded, “Chai Xiyang, I won’t deny that I loved you deeply in the past, but now I’ve genuinely let everything go. Certain feelings, once surrendered, never return.”

Chai Xiyang’s gaze darkened, but then he chuckled, “If it was so easy to let go, why didn’t you let go before?”

“Back then, I was foolish, but having been through so much, I’ve truly moved on.” Qiao Ning looked at him honestly, her words just as straightforward.

Seeing the clarity in her eyes, Chai Xiyang’s mood sank suddenly!

She really had let him go…

The girl who once loved him the most, now held no affection for him at all!

This realization caused a wave of regret and helplessness to surge through Chai Xiyang, leaving him deeply troubled.

How was it that she had suddenly stopped loving him?

It was only after a lot of soul-searching that he fell back in love and finally decided to let everything go and start afresh with her.

But, she had stopped loving him….

Chai Xiyang’s eyes hollowed for a moment, but just as quickly, he collected himself. Smiling lightly, he said, “It doesn’t matter. Feelings can be cultivated again. This time, it’ll be my turn to cherish you. Qiao Ning, can you give me another opportunity, can we start again?”

Her eyes flickered. Qiao Ning felt torn and shook her head, “I’m sorry. I don’t want to restart with you…”

“…”

“I’ve said everything I need to. Chai Xiyang, if you truly care for me, then stop disturbing me, just like how I never disturbed you before, okay?”
