?Chapter 708: Chapter 709: Courage (1)_1 Chapter 708: Chapter 709: Courage (1)_1 “Haohao, I made you choose between me and Shen Liangnian, I gave you the car keys and my bank card, and I had someone call you over when I got drunk tonight, claiming that I would leave with Qian Hua, all I really wanted was to test you.”
“I thought it would make you feel that you were losing me, that I might be with other women, which would make you jealous, angry, even bring you to tears.”
“All I wanted to see was a small sign of your concern for me.”
“But now I realize, I have been naive and childish.”
“Because you don’t care about me at all.”
When Liang Chen sent this message, his fingers hesitated for a long time on the keyboard before he took a deep breath and continued to type: “Haohao, no matter what I do, in the end, you just don’t love me.”
“Maybe that saying is true, once we miss the beginning, there will be no end result.”
“Our first encounter, I took the wrong approach, and ever since, I’ve had no way to genuinely enter the innermost part of your heart.”
These days, it seems like they’ve broken up, but he always thought they were still together.
He acknowledged it was because he’d been unwilling to face the truth.
Tonight, the events that transpired made him confront reality, and, understanding, he became dispassionate, calmly typing out the rest of his message.
“Haohao, since you’ve never intended to take that step, then I choose to take a step back.”
From the first moment he saw her, he let her recklessly invade his world, doing as she pleased.
All this time, he desperately tried to break into her world, but he remained on the outside, looking in.
Just as he told Qian Hua, he doesn’t need her to fully open her heart to him, he just needs a crack in a window, and he’ll wait without regrets.
However, even such a humble thought seems farfetched.
Everyone wants to properly love someone, but often, they also fear losing them. Despite being a shrewd person, in the end, he could not make her fall in love with him. Now the only thing he can do is to remain on the periphery of her world.
Still, he will let her remain in his world.
Expressionless, Liang Chen stared at the bright screen, his fingers paused for a long time before he slowly typed out his final sentence.
“Haohao, I won’t disturb you anymore.”
Upon sending this message, Liang Chen wanted to send another one saying “goodbye,” but after thinking, felt it was unnecessary.
They will never see each other again.
This severance is absolute.
Liang Chen slowly closed his eyes, put away his phone and stashed it in his pocket, then opened the car door and got in.
They say that one’s first love is the most beautiful period in a life.
His first love was a girl named Jing Haohao; she was beautiful and innocent.
He thought his first love would be different from everyone else’s, not ending in failure.
But he never thought, despite everything, his first love would follow the clichéd course. Even he, Liang Chen, couldn’t avoid the regretful fate of first love.
