The man replied, “If I really want to go in, there’s no particular need to go through you.”

“…”

What a clear rejection this is!

‘There’s no particular need to go through you.’

What’s the meaning of this?!

Mixed feelings rose in her as she wondered what his wife had told him after she left for him to treat her so coldly now.

Meanwhile, standing behind the floor-to-ceiling window that separated her from her husband, the actress’s mouth parted slightly in surprise when she vaguely heard the alienation in his response.

As it turned out, she was wrong about him lacking the patience to coax her!

Knowing that no amount of coaxing would appease her as long as this matter was not resolved properly, he decided to settle it once and for all by keeping his distance from Rong Xuan.

Being the swift and decisive man that he was, he immediately put the thought into action without even considering the amount of hurt he would bring to his childhood friend. In fact, he could not care less.

Yun Shishi was his wife, so her feelings were all he cared about; other than that, no one else’s feelings took priority!

“Brother Zhe… aren’t you being too estranged with me?” Rong Xuan uttered dumbly before suddenly asking, “Are you free now? Why don’t we meet up and talk? Just the two of us.”

There were certain things she could not say to him freely earlier as they were in the presence of an outsider—his wife. Hence, she proposed to meet him outside in hopes of him showing up alone.

Having lost contact with him for more than a decade, she thought that she had forgotten about him cleanly, but ever since their unexpected reunion, her infatuation with him, which had been buried in the deepest part of her mind, had come surging forth once more.

She saw their meeting as fate’s decree, so she wanted to bare her heart to him! She, thus, put aside her restraints, plucked up her courage, and took the initiative to request a private meeting with him.

Mu Yazhe’s forehead creased as he kept his silence for a long time.

“What’s wrong? Is it inconvenient for you? I can drive over to pick you up!”

“That’s not it.” He paused a bit before continuing to talk. “My wife doesn’t like it when I meet other females in private.”

He heard a vague gasp from her before things went completely silent on the other end; it was as if what he had just said dealt her so heavy a blow that she was left broken.

“W-Why… do you have to treat me this coldly?!” she cried grievously. “Don’t you think you’re being too unfeeling and cruel toward me?”

A small smile formed on his lips as he told her truthfully, “Xuanxuan, I know how you feel for me, but what we had between us vanished seventeen years ago, starting from the day you migrated overseas. I now have a wife and a happy family, so as a man, I must consider her feelings.”

His unexpected candidness left her at loss for words.

“Seventeen years ago, when you disappeared from my life and migrated to Italy with your family, I was indeed really sad and miserable to the point I considered applying to an Italian university and following you all the way there. Your name, however, completely faded from my life when I took the helm of my family at the age of twenty.”

Feeling desperate, she blurted out, “But I’ve never forgotten about you!”

The man merely replied with a smile, “That’s different.”

“How is it so?!”
