A different kind of chilliness gathered around his quiet eyes.

Secretary Wang could sense something was not right, so he quickly left the room.

After having experienced so many gentle moments with him before, this sharp contrast of coldness broke her heart.

“Yifeng, how can you do this to me? As much as you may hate me, that’s our son! Are you trying to tell everyone that you don’t care about your own son?” Xi Xinyi raised her head and looked at Han Yifeng as she bit her lip. She contained herself and tried her best to not let her tears fall.

Han Yifeng would definitely be in pain to see her like this had it been in the past. He would surely have held her in his arms and comforted her.

However, these moments belonged only in the past. All the damages had erased everything, including Han Yifeng’s feelings. He could not love her anymore and was struggling to face her. He did not want to see her at all, not one bit, because he could feel a burning in his chest whenever he saw her.

“I’m tired. Why don’t you just tell me what you want? What can I do to make you let go of me? You know that we can’t turn back time. Since we can’t go back to the past, why are you doing this? We can’t redo this anymore. Do you intend for us to follow your parents’ footsteps?” Han Yifeng took a deep breath as he tried to calm himself down.

“We won’t become like our parents because we’re truly in love. You gave Xi Xiaye up for me. You abandoned everything and went abroad with me. It’s impossible that you’ve lost all your feelings for me. I’m still deeply in love with you right now. If you’re willing to let go and forget about the unhappy past, we can still be like before! Trust me, Yifeng, we even have a child now! Yes, I admit that I’m at fault. I was selfish and wasn’t considerate about you. I was too narrow-minded and made many mistakes. I’ll change! I’ll change it all!”

Xi Xinyi took a deep breath and grabbed Han Yifeng’s arm as if she was grabbing onto her last strand of hope. She forced her tears back as her eyes reddened. “Why don’t you tell me what you want me to change? I’ll change anything you want. If you intend to, I’ll go to the entrance of Glory World Corporation tomorrow and apologize to Xi Xiaye. I’ll love you and care for you even more, okay? I’ve lost my home. I’ve lost everything... You and our son are the only things left for me... I’ve thought through it. I’m not going to be jealous or hate Xi Xiaye anymore. I don’t wish for much. I just want the three of us to live on as a happy family. Can you please give me a chance?”

Xi Xinyi’s tone sounded genuine while her eyes begged him and her hands clamped onto his arms as if she feared that he might flee.

Han Yifeng looked at the pitiful Xi Xinyi. He did not feel any pain. Instead, he felt a little sentimental. He closed his eyes and calmed down before he gazed outside at the rain and put on a bitter smile. “I can’t give you any more chances, Xinyi... I don’t want my heart to die. We shared a past, but we can’t get ahold of the present. There’s no future for us. Let’s get divorced. If you want, I can transfer half of the Han Corporation stock under my name to our child. I’ll also give you some money, and you can come and visit the child anytime you want. I won’t sever your relationship with the child. You had a promise with my grandfather, and he forced me to sign my name on the marriage contract. If you’re still unhappy with these arrangements, I’ll settle our matters through legal procedures since I suppose my chance of winning is huge.”

Although she had given birth, Han Yifeng did not care much now. Most people already knew their relationship was on the edge, and he was not planning to hide it.

Xi Xinyi’s eyes widened as she looked at Han Yifeng and shook her head. “Impossible... Impossible! You can’t do this to me!”

“I remember telling you before that I’ll be sure to divorce you! I can’t accept my partner as a cunning, wicked person!”

Han Yifeng wanted to shake her off, but Xi Xinyi’s grip became even tighter. She grabbed Han Yifeng’s hand as she knelt on the staircase and sobbed. “No, Yifeng... Please! I’m sorry. Please don’t divorce me. You can’t leave me. I can’t live in a world without you! I’m in pain, Yifeng... Haven’t you seen how hard I’ve been working?”

“Let go, Xinyi!”

She almost tore Han Yifeng’s sleeve as he tried to drag her hands away.

“No! I won’t! If you let go, I... I’ll lose you forever. How can I give up on the love of my life? Yifeng, I can’t go on without you, so, please... I beg you. Please forgive me. Give me a chance and I’ll listen to you, okay?”

Han Yifeng paused. His eyes darkened as he looked down at Xi Xinyi who was a mess now and his hand stopped.

“I love you, Yifeng! Let me love you. Let me protect you. I just want to be together with you. We...”

Before she could finish her sentence, Han Yifeng’s eyes returned to normal and he dragged her hands away.

“No, Yifeng, don’t do this to me...” Xi Xinyi tried to grab at his sleeve again.

“That’s enough, Xinyi! If we continue like this, I’ll be sure to go mad! Once something is lost, it can never return again. We can’t do this! Just when are you going to wake up? Don’t make me hate you! I’ll ask my lawyer to prepare a divorce contract. If you’re not going to sign it, I’ll go through the legal procedures!” Han Yifeng glanced at Xi Xinyi coldly. He lost his mood of heading into the study room anymore, so he spun around and headed into the rain.

Meanwhile, Xi Xinyi cried on the cold staircase.
