?Chapter 379: Chapter 380: After the Harm, There’s No Forgiveness (5)_1 Chapter 379: Chapter 380: After the Harm, There’s No Forgiveness (5)_1 Only two or three streetlights shone over the alley, casting just enough dim light for one to navigate. The further in one ventured, the further they were detached from the bustling world outside. Upon reaching the deep end of the alley, the noises of the outside world disappeared completely, as if one had entered a different realm.
At the very end of the alley, there was only one path leading to the left. Before Liang Chen had had a chance to turn around, he heard the distinct knots of sobs coming from within. The echoing cries were so familiar that even he couldn’t recall when they had so indelibly etched themselves into his heart.
He stood there as if paralyzed, rigid and unmoving. After what felt like an eternity, he took a hesitant step forward. Guided by the faint luminescence of a distant streetlight, he saw Jing Haohao hunched on the ground, her head buried between her knees, her body twitching with sobs, the picture of utter sorrow.
Liang Chen felt as if his heart was being gripped and twisted violently. It was a pain that he found unbearable.
Wave after wave of heartache, rising like a tide, infiltrated his heart, quickly overwhelming him.
Liang Chen clenched his fists tightly, his arms limply hanging by his side.
The alley was hauntingly silent, with nothing but the intermittent sobs of Jing Haohao piercing through.
It was Jing Haohao who was heartbroken, Jing Haohao who was distraught.
Yet, Liang Chen felt as though his anguish was tenfold, a hundredfold, a thousandfold of hers.
Every cell in his body was crying out in pain.
Only then did he realize, genuine love is closest to heartache.
Only those who give their true heart can understand what heartbreak means.
She was heartbroken over her lost love. He was heartbroken for her heartache.
Your eyes are raining, and my heart is holding an umbrella for you.
The more Jing Haohao cried, the more her heart ached. Who could really understand that Shen Liangnian had been her everything, her life, her faith, her all, during the past ten years, and now all of it had come crashing down, reduced to ruins?
How could it be that Shen Liangnian, whom she loved deeply for all these years, had deceived her for two years?
How could he heartlessly leave her in the dark for two years, making her feel like a fool?
With everything she had done for him, how could he treat her such?
Jing Haohao’s sobs were gut-wrenching. In the end, she collapsed onto the ground, her frail body curled up.
Liang Chen stared at Jing Haohao, who was sobbing inconsolably on the ground. After a long while, he forcibly swallowed, his feet felt as though they were made of lead as he took step by step towards her. He bent down, intending to help Jing Haohao stand up, but found his fingers trembling uncontrollably.
It took a considerable amount of effort for Liang Chen to calm his shaking hands and gently touch Jing Haohao’s head, caressing her hair lightly.
