She liked him from the first sight, and liked his gentle and elegant temperament. She pursued him for half a year, and finally, he finally agreed to her.

After they were together, he treated her very well and took good care of her. She felt that he was the only one she needed for her life. She thought that as long as she broke off the engagement, she could marry him. So, she rejected Lu Shiyan's marriage proposal without hesitation. She didn't regret it at all and was even happy. However, after she broke off the engagement, she still couldn't marry him. Now, he wanted to break up with her. She didn't understand. They were obviously so in love, how could they have come to this point of breaking up? What had she done wrong, why did he have to pick on her?

"Well, you should take good care of yourself in the future and marry someone who loves you and cherishes you. He will love you and take care of you." When Xu Ankang said this, his heart was bleeding. If possible, he wanted to take care of her himself.

"In the future, someone will appear in your life, make you happy, make you laugh, and bring you happiness. And I am just a passerby who appears briefly on your life's road."

"But I will never find someone like you again." Ye Jingning said in despair.

"No, you are such a good person, you will definitely meet someone better, just forget about me."

"You are so nice, how could I forget you? I really like you, very much." Ye Jingning grabbed his clothes and said, still struggling.

"Be good, you are only in your twenties. You still have a long way to go in life. There will always be someone for you." No matter what she said, Xu Ankang just wouldn't give in.

Ye Jingning also understood that there was no possibility between them anymore. She had known his temper for a long time. As long as he didn't let go, they would be strangers forever.

"It's getting late, let me take you home." Xu Ankang waited for her to cry for a long time before speaking. Her crying did not change his mind.

"No need, I can go back by myself." Ye Jingning stepped out of his arms, looked at him deeply, and then staggered forward.

Xu Ankang looked at her back until she went in, then turned around.

He liked her very much, too. When she was chasing after him, he thought that this girl was so likable. Later, they became boyfriend and girlfriend as they wished. It was not until the news of her breaking off the engagement came out that he knew that she was actually engaged, and was the daughter of the Ye family. He was originally worried that his status was not worthy of her and that she would mind, but after she made it clear, he didn't care. After all, although his family was not as well-off as hers, they were well-off after all. Life would not be bad when they were together in the future.

The two were in a serious relationship, but one day, he discovered that his parents were constantly being targeted, often encountering all sorts of inexplicable troubles. One day, someone told him that if he didn't break up with his daughter, he would destroy everything his parents had worked so hard for. At first, he didn't care, and his parents said they could hold on. However, the more he spent time with her, the more his father tried to make things difficult for him. He realized that they couldn't win against him.

He couldn't let his parents' lifelong efforts go to waste because of his love, nor could he let her be caught in the middle. He thought about it for a long time, he struggled for more than two months, and finally, he chose to let go.

If he continued with her, not only would his parents' lifelong efforts be wasted, but his own career would be ruined as well. And she, caught between him and her family, would only become more torn.

Growing up in a different environment, she accepted different things. A pampered person like her would definitely be wronged when she married into his family in the future. He was limited in ability and probably couldn't give her a villa or a luxury car. In his life, at most he was from a well-off family and lived an ordinary life.

What's more, her family is wealthy in Jinghua, and her father would definitely not agree. Could it be that she would have to rebel against her family in the future? After thinking it over, he felt that separation would be better for both of them. It's better to suffer a short pain than a long one, so he chose to break up with her directly.

From now on, he only wishes her a peaceful and happy life. He believes that she can still live a good life without him, but he cannot be with her.

Thinking of this, he felt a little sad. He had been pretending to be fine at work these days, but now, realizing that he and she would be strangers forever, he could no longer suppress the pain and sadness in his heart. He cried, the first time he cried for someone he loved.

He walked back slowly along the road, lost in thought. When his parents opened the door and saw him, they were a little panicked. They didn't understand why their son was like this. However, after all, they knew it at a glance and didn't ask any more questions. Xu Ankang was alone. After saying hello, he went back to his room.

"Son, will anything happen?" Xu's mother asked worriedly.

"It will pass." Father Xu comforted.

"Alas, you say, it doesn't matter who he likes, why does he like the daughter of the Ye family? We can't let him marry her. If it was a girl from another family, she could still let her son marry her in a grand ceremony." Xu's mother sighed. The threshold of the Ye family was indeed too high. Even if they invested half their lives in it, they might not be able to get people to agree to marry their daughter to him.

"Just take it easy." Father Xu consoled him. Apart from this, they really couldn't help in any other way.

Xu Ankang had no idea that his appearance had made his parents worried for a long time.

Since that day, he has returned to his previous self and devoted himself to scientific research. No one targeted his parents anymore, and they returned to their normal lives.
