Chapter 370: Hard to Let Go



Ai Xiaoli was very happy: "Okay!" Half an hour is good! Ai Xiaoli took him to a very luxurious restaurant, which was full of Luocheng's specialties, and they tasted especially good. The most important thing was that this was a place they had eaten before.

This place is filled with their warm memories from the past, but now they are no longer memories, but have become a kind of pain.

The names they signed together were still on the wall. For Ai Xiaoli, it was full of warmth, but for Xiao Jinchu, it was like sitting on pins and needles.

"Just say whatever you want to say." Xiao Jinchu always looked cold towards her. He no longer had the enthusiasm he had for her in the beginning. After all, she was the one who disappointed him.

"Jinchu, you've changed." Ai Xiaoli thought about when she was with him before, he was not like this at all.

Xiao Jinchu was originally a passionate man. He was always carefree when talking to others and especially liked to joke. But now he has completely changed. He is as cold as a piece of ice and no one can warm him up.

So she thought that maybe her departure had caused him great harm, which was why he became like this?

Thinking that I still have a certain position in his heart, I am actually quite happy after all. I also hope that I can have an unshakable position in his heart for the rest of my life.

If it were in the past, as long as Ai Xiaoli threw a tantrum or said something unhappy, Xiao Jinchu would immediately come over to coax her and make her happy, but now both of them have changed completely and the feeling they had before can no longer be found.

After all, she had indeed hurt Xiao Jinchu too deeply at the beginning, and it might not be easy to win him back now.

"Jinchu, do you still remember? How long has it been since you liked her the most to come here? Because this is the bayberry wine brewed by the boss lady herself, today I specially asked the boss lady to bring another cup over, you can taste the flavor here again."

Ai Xiaoli poured him a glass and then handed it to him, still looking affectionate.

"No matter how delicious bayberry wine is, it no longer has the original flavor." He used to like this flavor not because it tasted good, but because the person who drank it with him was her.

And now it is she who still accompanies him to drink, but the relationship between the two has undergone earth-shaking changes.

"Jinchu, why don't you drink it?" Ai Xiaoli still insisted that as long as she pursued him again, he would definitely have feelings for her again when his love for her was reawakened. Even though she knew that the possibility was very slim, she still had to do it. She absolutely could not let all the possibilities become a bubble.

How could Xiao Jinchu not understand what she meant? Although she said that she no longer cared about him, it was obvious that she didn't think so in her heart. She just wanted to win him back.

But all he could think of in his mind was Yan Shuhua, and all the other people were just illusions.

The proprietress of the store also came over and said that she hadn't seen Xiao Jinchu for a long time. This jar of bayberry wine had been brewed for two years and the taste was particularly pure.

It seems that the two of them are different from before. After all, so much time has passed. Maybe they have broken up a long time ago.

"Madam Boss, do you still remember which dishes he likes?" Ai Xiaoli kindly reminded Xiao Jinchu, just to make him recall every moment they had spent here.

"Of course I remember. Although you haven't been here for such a long time, I still have a deep impression of you. I know that his favorite dish is the sweet and sour pork ribs. I'll make it for you right away." After the proprietress said this, she rolled up her sleeves and left.

Because the conditions were not as good as they are now, meat was still not available, and the food in the army was not that good. His only favorite food was sweet and sour pork ribs. Every time I went out with him, I would order one serving here. But the price was really expensive. However, Ai Xiaoli's family was quite well off at the time, so it was quite easy to buy him one serving.

Ai Xiaoli always thought that Xiao Jinchu was just a soldier, but she never knew that he would be the eldest son of the Xiao family, let alone that he would be worth so much. That's why she abandoned him at the beginning. It was not until later that she found out that the person she was dating was not good enough that she slowly realized how good Xiao Jinchu was.

It was only after she came to her senses and discovered Xiao Jinchu's true identity that she realized how stupid she had been. But now he has changed his ways and is determined to pursue Xiao Jinchu again.

Because Xiao Jinchu will be his forever.

The proprietress immediately brought out the sweet and sour pork ribs. The aroma was so mouth-watering that even the taste buds began to react violently at that moment.

In fact, sweet and sour pork ribs were not Xiao Jinchu's favorite. He just remembered that Ai Xiaoli liked to eat it, so he ordered this dish every time he came and enjoyed the food with her. But now that this dish was placed in front of him, it seemed like a slap in his face. He didn't feel touched or warm at all, and he had no appetite to eat it.

"Jinchu, try it again, maybe it still tastes like this."

"It's been so many years, can it still taste the same?"

"Of course it's the same. If you don't believe me, just try it. After all, this is what the boss lady prepared for you today. No matter what, we have to have a good meal, right?" Ai Xiaoli immediately picked up the chopsticks, ready to have a feast with him, but saw that Xiao Jinchu didn't seem to want to pick up his chopsticks.

His attitude did not change at all because of this sweet and sour pork ribs: "I didn't come here to eat with you today, but to make some things clear to you."

"Jinchu, can't you wait until we're done with the meal? Do you have to be so cruel to me?"

"If I'm not a little cruel to you, you will still have hope. Later you will find out that I am the cruelest one." Xiao Jinchu's words were very clear. It was absolutely impossible to start over with her.

Absolutely impossible! When Ai Xiaoli heard what he said and saw his resolute expression, she felt sad. She put down her chopsticks again, picked up the glass of bayberry wine, and drank a big sip without saying a word.

"Jinchu... since you don't want to see me, there's no need for us to have this meal. After we finish this glass of wine, let's never see each other again."

Xiao Jinchu looked at the glass of wine in front of him. Finally, he picked it up and took a sip. The taste was still the same as before, but when it went down his throat, he felt his whole heart was bitter.
