Chapter 303 - It’s Over (2)
The Male Lead's Substitute Wife
Shen Xiuqi immediately interrupted her, his delicate face looked solemn, and his voice was stern, âNo, maybe when I first saw her, I did think that she looked like you, so I decided to go after her, but when I started to get to know her, I realized that she wasnât like you. Your personality, habits and preferences were completely different from hers. She is a naive and kind woman, she is worthy of my love, worthy for me to treat her well. It was after then I realized I didnât love her because she was your substitute, it was because I loved her as a person. Thatâs why I chased after her. Sheâs pregnant with my child. She is my wife now, and this will never change. â
âShen Xiuqi, do you have to say such awful things to hurt me? Does making me unhappy and heartbroken make you feel happy, only then you can forget what had happened in the past, and forgive me? Hurting me like this, does this really make you happy?â An Yutong cried.
Shen Xiuqi looked at her and shook his head as he said: âThatâs not true. I said so much to you, was just to reveal my true thoughts. Weâre over, and itâs impossible for us to go back in the past, so I hope that you can let go. From now on, live your own life, itâll be the best for all of us. Do you understand? â
An Yutong cried and shook her head, her cries resembled pear blossoms swaying in the rain, she looked so pitiful, she sadly said: âI donât understand, Xiuqi, I donât understand, how is Su Yaya better than me? How is she better than me? Doesnât she look like me? You chased after her and is in love with her now because of me! Didnât she just take advantage of the empty space I left and squeezed in?â
Shen Xiuqi was very upset when she talked about Su Yaya in this manner, he felt displeased, and said: âThe point isnât whether she is better than you, but that she is just right for me. She doesnât need to be compared to you or be better than you. She doesnât need to take advantage of anything or use any tricks to get me, because sheâs the person I love, and you are no longer the one.â
When An Yutong heard this, she froze for a moment, and then burst into tears, she sprawled on the table, and her shoulders trembled as she cried, her slender body resembled a fallen leaf in the wind, shaking constantly, fragile and helpless, it was obvious how sad she felt.
If it was in the past, Shen Xiuqi could never bear to see her cry, but now, as he watched her cry so sadly, he didnât feel anything, of course he didnât feel completely emotionless, it just felt like this didnât seem to be what he wanted. He patiently explained to her, hoping that she could understand, and also for old timeâs sake, he didnât want to be too harsh.
He thinks that itâs better to just end it clean rather than just dragging it on and on, which would hurt even more, if he could completely cut her off, thatâll be the best. If he isnât determined and decisive enough, Su Yaya would most likely be the one who feels sad and hurt in the end, just like his parents. He didnât want to be like his playboy father and played around with many other girls, he didnât want Su Yaya to feel sad and hurt like how his mother had felt. Just the thought of Su Yaya being sad, like his mother, because of the same issue, his heart already ached as if someone stabbed a knife into his heart, he really couldnât bear to see Su Yaya that way.
Yutong, I think Iâve already said things very clearly, I hope that we can live on with our own lives in the future, and not get involved in each otherâs lives.â He had already said everything that he had to say, regardless if An Yutong could really understand him, Shen Xiuqi already tried his best, and there was really no need for the two of them to carry on anymore. After he spoke, he stood up, pushed his chair back and was prepared to leave the room.
