?Chapter 564: Chapter 565: Asking for Help (4)_1 Chapter 564: Chapter 565: Asking for Help (4)_1 She did this not for any other reason, but because she didn’t want to have too much interaction with Shen Liangnian.
Jing Haohao’s rejection was straightforward and direct, with no room for mercy.
Shen Liangnian stood still, his face did not show any embarrassment or awkwardness due to Jing Haohao’s rejection. He just looked at her calmly and warmly, just as always.
After a while, he reached out and took Jing Haohao’s arm, “It’s hard to get a taxi here, I’ll take you home.”
Jing Haohao reacted as if shocked by electricity, she quickly and fiercely shook off Shen Liangnian’s arm. Without saying a word, she turned around and walked down the street.
Shen Liangnian stretched out his hand again and grabbed Jing Haohao’s arm. Without saying a word, he pulled her to the car door and shoved her inside.
The calmness Jing Haohao felt when she first met Shen Liangnian instantly turned into anger: “Shen Liangnian, what are you trying to do?”
Shen Liangnian lowered his head, ignoring her words, and quietly fastened her seatbelt.
The anger in Jing Haohao’s chest grew stronger, and even her tone of voice was tinged with irritation, a slight tremble: “Shen Liangnian, we’ve broken up.”
Shen Liangnian paused at her words, he raised his hand, intending to close the car door.
“Shen Liangnian, I have nothing to do with you.” Jing Haohao angrily unbuckled her seatbelt and kicked open the car door that Shen Liangnian was about to close, “If there is any connection left between us, it’s that we’re strangers!”
Having said that, Jing Haohao prepared to jump out of Shen Liangnian’s car.
Shen Liangnian blocked the car door with a solemn face, showing no sign of moving. He watched Jing Haohao, whose face hadn’t changed much from his memory. His eyes moved slightly and then he quietly opened his mouth, as if he had thought it through, and said: “Haohao, let’s start over.”
Jing Haohao was slightly taken aback, somewhat incredulous about what Shen Liangnian had just said. She furrowed her brows, looking into Shen Liangnian’s eyes.
His eyes were filled with seriousness, as if he had made a big decision.
A moment later, Jing Haohao cracked a smile. After a while, she collected her smile, turned her gaze to the dim street light in the distance, and said lightly, “Shen Liangnian, don’t joke around.”
Shen Liangnian, as if he hadn’t heard the sarcasm in Jing Haohao’s tone, remained expressionless, his gaze clear as he silently looked at her: “Haohao, I’m serious, I’ve thought about it for a long time. Can we get back together and start over…?”
As Shen Liangnian spoke, his eyes became a bit red. He thought back to the time before the college entrance examination, when he went home once. At that time, his critically ill father had improved slightly. They sat in the yard and shared a few drinks while Jing Haohao sat aside, bustling around. Later, because she was too tired, she fell asleep. He carried her to the bed in the room. When he came out, his father was smoking on the small stool in the yard. Hearing his footsteps, his father turned his head, pointed to the stool in front of him, signaling him to sit down, and then said, “Liangnian, Haohao is a good girl. She doesn’t have any relatives in this world. When I’m gone, you will be her only support.”
