Chapter 945: The Real Him (4)

Ling Tianya laid on the couch gasping for air. She took a good minute to recover.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry…” Wang Manpeng was very remorseful about what he had just done. He had no intention of hurting Ling Tianya like this. “I didn’t mean to, but why won’t you just remember me? Why did you remember Ruan Zeyan after taking just one look at him?”

“Have you heard of love at first sight? Do you know that there’s such a thing as chemistry and fate? Those elements simply exist between Ruan Zeyan and me, but not between you and me.” Ling Tianya’s voice was a little hoarse and her throat was dry after all that choking. Her voice was similar to Mandy’s this way.

Ling Tianya’s words were harsh and affected Wang Manpeng deeply. He was almost going to lose it again.

Wang Manpeng sat on the sofa. He lit a cigarette and starting puffing away angrily.

“Ling Tianya, this is so unfair! Did you know, I walked into that cafe by chance and I was enraptured by your beauty and charisma the moment I laid eyes on you.”

“I know I am Ruan Zeyan’s shadow and I was in danger at all times. That’s the only reason I held myself back from telling the girl I loved about my feelings. I went there every day after that, to buy a cup of coffee from you and hear you say, ‘see you again’. At that time, I thought that something as simple as that would make me the happiest man on earth. Then, one day, Ruan Zeyan was in the university town to meet someone but he was followed by a hitman. There were students everywhere and Ruan Zeyan didn’t want a murder to happen on the school campus. He thought that it would do the young adults around any good. So we all dressed up as students to hide amongst them and avoided the hitman. That was when Ruan Zeyan first entered the cafe that you worked at, and he saw you with your beautiful smile and charismatic gaze.”

“Then, the two of you fell in love at an unprecedented speed. I once thought that you were in love with Ruan Zeyan’s status and wealth. But the truth was that Ruan Zeyan had hidden his identity from you, and you had thought of him as a poor student.”

“Once upon a time, I could come every day to buy coffee from you, but after you met Ruan Zeyan, I could only bring Ruan Zeyan to the cafe in his disguise as a student. I was in the car then, when he would walk into the cafe and the two of you would chat about life and share inside jokes with one another.”

“To help Ruan Zeyan conceal his identity, I never once appeared in front of you again.”

Wang Manpeng was smoking the cigarette as he recounted what had happened seven years ago. He thought about Ling Tianya’s expression on her face then. She had looked blissful and happy. Slowly, his own expression turned lonely and grim, extremely lonely.

“So, Ling Tianya, why don’t you remember me at all? You should remember me!”

Ling Tianya was silent. She was shocked by what Wang Manpeng had just said. So, the moment that she had met Ruan Zeyan was when he was in peril danger.

Perhaps Wang Manpeng was right and she was being unfair to him. But love was never a fair game. It was created this way.

Even though Wang Manpeng had visited the cafe countless times, Ling Tianya only treated him as a normal customer. When Ruan Zeyan visited the cafe, she had fallen in love with him immediately.

It was something difficult to explain. Even now, Ling Tianya was preoccupied with the thought that Ruan Zeyan was in mortal danger the day when they first met. Even though Wang Manpeng had been in the same danger as well.
