Chapter 176 She is also worthy of being loved

Su Muyang's voice was a little choked, but he still insisted on speaking:

"During his years abroad, he underwent countless surgeries, large and small. Each one was a test of life and death for him. Sometimes, he even despaired that if he died on the operating table, perhaps he would no longer have to live such a hard life. However, every time he had this thought, the figure of that girl would always appear in his mind. He always had a strong desire in his heart, which was to see her again. It was with this belief that he overcame the difficulties of surgery time and time again and tenaciously survived."

"Later, good news finally came. He found a suitable heart and underwent a successful heart transplant. After a year of careful recuperation, the little boy finally recovered. And now, he finally saw the girl he had been thinking about and dreaming about..."

After listening to Su Muyang's story, Mu Nanyan felt a complex emotion that was difficult to describe. She had never imagined that Su Muyang had experienced so many hardships over the years. She raised her head, a hint of worry in her eyes, and asked softly:

"So are you...healed now?"

Su Muyang smiled slightly, his tone calm but with a hint of relief:

"Well, I guess so. As long as you don't do strenuous exercise and pay attention to your diet, there won't be any major problems."

"That's good."

Mu Nanyan responded in a low voice, but her heart seemed to be blocked by something, heavy. She lowered her head, her fingers unconsciously stroking the rim of the cup, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

Su Muyang looked at her, his eyes full of anticipation and uneasiness. He took a deep breath and finally mustered up the courage to say:

"Yan Yan, can you give me another chance? This time, I won't let you get hurt again."

Mu Nanyan raised her head and looked at him with a complicated expression. After a moment of silence, she said softly:

"Mu Yang, we can't go back..."

"Why?"

Su Muyang's voice was a little hurried, and his eyes were full of confusion and loss.

Mu Nanyan took a deep breath, her tone calm but with a hint of determination:

"Because I don't like you anymore. When you chose to leave, we were over."

"But I left because of my body..."

Su Muyang wanted to explain eagerly, but was interrupted by Mu Nanyan.

"Mu Yang, I can understand what you did back then. If I were in the same situation as you, I might do the same."

Her voice was soft, but it carried an unquestionable firmness.

"Then why won't you give me another chance?"

There was a hint of pleading in Su Muyang's voice.

Mu Nanyan shook her head, a hint of helplessness in her eyes:

"Because we were too young back then, Mu Yang. Even if you hadn't left, we might not have made it to the end."

"Why do you say that?"

Su Muyang's voice was a little hoarse and his eyes were full of confusion.

Mu Nanyan looked at him, her tone calm but touching:

"Because in that relationship, we only saw the good side of each other, but in reality, we didn't understand each other at all."

Su Muyang was stunned and opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. Mu Nanyan continued:

"Mu Yang, we've been together for three years, and you never told me that you have a congenital heart disease. Were you afraid that I would find out you were a sickly person and break up with you? When you chose to hide it from me, you had already made the choice for me. Have you ever thought that if you had told me at the beginning, I would have chosen to go abroad with you? I am willing to face the disease with you."

Su Muyang pursed his lips, unable to refute. He had originally thought that as long as she left him, Mu Nanyan could live the life she wanted, but in the end, Mu Nanyan was forced to marry someone else. Perhaps, he really had made a mistake.

Mu Nanyan's voice was still calm, but with a hint of bitterness:

"Mu Yang, actually, I also hid it from you back then. You said you liked the brave, strong, and sunny me, but that was only the me I wanted you to see. The real me is cowardly. I knew clearly that my father was cheating on me, but I always pretended not to know. My stepmother and sister always bullied me, and I never dared to speak out. I even didn't dare go home to avoid them..."

When she said this, Mu Nanyan's nose felt sore, tears welled up in her eyes, and her voice was choked.

Su Muyang's eyes became complicated. He knew a little about Mu Nanyan's family, but that was something he found out after returning to China. Before that, he really knew nothing.

Mu Nanyan sighed softly, with a hint of relief in her tone:

"Mu Yang, we are both selfish. Neither of us wants to expose our scars to others, but love should be truthful and accepting, it should be mutual understanding and tolerance, it should be trust and a sense of security. I can't give it to you, and you can't give it to me."

Su Muyang fell silent, as if something had struck him hard. He lowered his head, his voice a little hoarse:

"So...is there really no chance for us?"

"Well, let the past be the past. Mu Yang, I believe you will definitely meet the girl who is willing to let you treat her sincerely."

After Mu Nanyan finished speaking, she turned her head away, tears sliding down her eyes. She quickly stood up and whispered:

"I'm going to the bathroom."

Before she finished speaking, she turned and left the box, running quickly towards the bathroom.

Mu Nanyan felt very uncomfortable. After all, Su Muyang was the first man she had ever loved.

Wasn’t Su Muyang once a light in Mu Nanyan’s life?

When she was most helpless, it was Su Muyang who stayed by her side, making her sunny and cheerful little by little.

Weren’t the years she spent with Su Muyang the happiest time in Mu Nanyan’s entire youth?

Mu Nanyan walked into the bathroom cubicle, closed the door, and then burst into tears.

She said those words on purpose just because she didn't want to give Su Muyang any more hope.

The current Su Muyang is no longer the young boy he used to be, and she is no longer the twenty-year-old Mu Nanyan.

At that time, they had no scruples. They could be together when they wanted to and separate when they wanted to.

But now, 28-year-old Mu Nanyan has her own life. She has Chenchen and she has to consider Chenchen.

Su Muyang is the second young master of the Su family in Haicheng. How could his parents agree to him marrying a divorced woman with a child?

All I can say is that the two people fell in love at the wrong time. They met the person who made their heart beat the most at an age when they didn't know how to love.

Mu Nanyan wiped her tears, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down.

Mu Nanyue was actually quite grateful to Su Muyang. She thanked him for telling her the truth, which allowed her to give an explanation to the 23-year-old Mu Nanyan.

She is not abandoned, she deserves to be loved.

Mu Nanyan really blamed Su Muyang at first, and even doubted whether she was good enough, so Su Muyang chose to leave.

Now that she knew all the truth, Mu Nanyan felt relieved.

Thank you for appearing in my life, and thank you for letting me know that that relationship was not just my wishful thinking.
