Chapter 55: Just Leave Me Alone! (2/2)

Zhao Qingfeng chuckled coldly as he looked at Liu Ruoxin, who was on the verge of tears, reminding himself not to make the same mistakes again.

“Alright… alright…”

Liu Ruoxin took a few deep breaths, slowly composing herself.

A minute later.

She seemed to have made up her mind and spoke at length.

“Zhao Qingfeng, did you hear something? My father forced me to do those things; I didn’t want to. But now, my thoughts are different from his…”

“I don’t ask you to credit me in your second published article. I don’t care about that.”

“Now, I just want to say…”

“Ever since I rejected your confession and you resolutely went back to that girl, I’ve felt really uncomfortable, empty inside.”

“You used to love me the most…”

“You bought me breakfast, accompanied me to and from school, and even pretended to be sick just to see me more. Have you forgotten all these?”

“I didn’t do anything wrong, did I? I just… alright, let’s not talk about that. What I want to ask you now is, if I sincerely accept you, can we seriously have a relationship? The kind that goes from school uniforms to wedding dresses, staying together through sickness and health, never leaving each other…”

Liu Ruoxin wasn’t sure if she was truly confessing. Her innocent demeanor made it impossible to tell.

When she finished speaking, her emotions intensified.

It seemed like she was eagerly anticipating a joyful response from Zhao Qingfeng.

However.

Zhao Qingfeng still gently shook his head, showing no sign of wavering.

He took a deep breath, looked up at the endless sky, and said as if lost in thought, “I’ve tried everything you said, and only later did I realize that it was all just a dream.”

Liu Ruoxin was stunned.

A dream?

Could he have developed mental issues after his fall?

They never had a future together, so why say such a thing?

She remembered the month they spent together, how Zhao Qingfeng had devoted himself to her, leaving an unforgettable intensity.

But now.

He was so cold, devoid of emotion.

At that moment, Liu Ruoxin felt Zhao Qingfeng drifting further away from her, becoming a stranger, as if they had never known each other.

What about her future if he really didn’t accept her?

“You said you would never let me shed a single tear…”

She suddenly became serious, a tear slowly rolling down from her innocent eyes.

She didn’t wipe it away.

Instead, she looked up at Zhao Qingfeng’s profile, waiting for him to reach out and wipe her tear.

The wind brushed her youthful and beautiful face.

Zhao Qingfeng sighed.

In his past life, he would have immediately comforted her, made funny faces to cheer her up, anything to make her smile, even if it meant rolling on the ground.

But now, he couldn’t do it, as Liu Ruoxin’s face was utterly loathsome to him.

He was about to say something when Liu Ruoxin suddenly grabbed his hand, placing it on her face, continuing to speak expectantly, “Dreams are false, but I am real. I want to tell you that this is not a dream. Maybe we can try again from the beginning…”

Not a dream?

Zhao Qingfeng had just felt Liu Ruoxin’s warmth when he abruptly withdrew his hand, wiping it with disgust, “I’m glad it was just a dream. If it were real, that would be too terrifying! Sorry, I’m short on time. You better leave now, stop bothering me!”

Leave?

Liu Ruoxin couldn’t accept it.

Rejected so harshly, her desire to keep Zhao Qingfeng’s heart only grew stronger.

She ordered her driver to block Zhao Qingfeng immediately, then hurriedly ran into the car.
