Chapter 390: Are You Willing to Leave With Me?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“It’s not up to you to decide if it’s worth it or not.” Ling Xiaoyang really did not want to hide his feelings for her anymore. He wanted to tell her how much he loved her.
“I’ve loved you since the first moment I laid eyes on you.”
“The first moment? You mean when I went to class with the professor for the first time as his teaching assistant?”
“No, earlier. I remember that the school semester had just started and you were running on the track one morning. From the moment I saw you, I couldn’t take my eyes off you.”
Just how slow am I? I actually had no inkling at all.
“When I found out that you’re Uncle Chu’s wife, I was really miserable and could only numb myself by getting with different women. But no matter what I did, I couldn’t get you out of my heart.”
“In the end, I had to give up and thought that I could stay by your side as a friend.”
“Later, when that incident happened to you, I really hated myself that day.” “Why did you hate yourself? If it weren’t for you that day, I might have died.” “I hated myself for not being able to protect you. I hated myself for letting you get hurt.”
“Seeing that I was unable to save you, it was worse than myself dying.”
“From that moment on, I decided that I would never let such a thing happen again. So…”
“That’s why you enlisted.” At this point, no matter how slow Jian Dan was, she had figured it out.
“Yes.”
“I really don’t deserve you guys doing all these for me.”
“I already said that it’s not up to you to decide if it’s worth it or not.”
“I’m telling you now—you deserve the best in the world!”
“Xiaoyang, I…”
“I’m telling you this not because I want you to reciprocate my feelings immediately. I just want to let you know that other than Chu Liyuan, there’s someone else in this world who loves you too.”
“Chu Liyuan?” The corners of Jian Dan’s lips curled into a self-deprecating smile.
Does he love me?
He probably just doesn’t dislike me, that’s all.
“If you want to go back to him, I can send you back.”
“Go back? Go back where? How can I go back?”
“If you don’t want to go anywhere, then… you can leave with me. I can arrange a new identity for you and start over. I won’t let anyone find you.”
A new start? Forget everything here and start over is a good option.
“Okay. But before I leave, I want to leave a parting gift for him.”
“Then what do you want to do?”
“Since I’ve decided to leave and start over, I want to end everything that is Jian Dan.”
“You mean…”
“Let them think that Jian Dan is dead!”
Jian Dan hacked into the surveillance system outside the alley and tampered with the timecode and video footage.
Moreover, she deliberately found a beach with surveillance cameras and jumped into the sea under the surveillance…
Jian Dan had been fretting over the issue of the body, but she seemed to have underestimated Xiaoyang’s ability. Not only had he arranged for a body, but he had also used some unknown method to get the forensics report to confirm her identify.
“Xiaoyang, can my new name be Wangxin [18. A play on the word “forget” in Chinese by breaking up the top and bottom parts of the Chinese character “forget”.]?”
“Wangxin?”
“Yes. I want to forget.”
“Alright. From today onwards, your name will be Jian Wangxin.”
“Thank you, Xiaoyang.”
“You never have to say those two words to me.”
After arranging everything, she left with Xiaoyang…
It was really not easy to leave this place where she had lived for 20 years; to leave her longtime good friends and let go of the past. However, she had to let go
lf she did not let go, she would really have to live in misery for the rest of her life.
Now that I’m no longer alone, I have to live well for him.
From nowon, lam Jian Wangxin!
