Chapter 280 You were as sad as I am now, right?
Tan Yu'an's face was full of lividity, and there was panic in his eyes.
That night!
Bai Nuan never mentioned this to him from beginning to end.
Although he was not at the scene that night, he could sense the danger from the words of Zeng Qi and Wan Jinglun.
If Bai Nuan had not carried a knife, if she had not reacted in time, if she had not snatched the car from that person and barely kept a safe place!
That night, she would really be helpless!
If she really did it because of him... then Tan Yu'an couldn't imagine how much regret he would have.
Now that he knew, it was impossible for him to pretend that it had never happened. He was going to find Bai Nuan.
"Tan Yu'an! Bai Nuan doesn't want to see you. Wasn't it because you insisted on seeing her that she got into trouble that night?" Zeng Qi shouted, "Can you not be so selfish? You have to only think about your own happiness when doing things!"
"That night, it was indeed my fault. I shouldn't have brought her out, but I was worried that she would be angry and didn't insist on sending her back." Tan Yu'an felt heartbroken and guilty, "But now I have to see her. That incident was caused by me, and I owe her an apology."
Even if he didn't send her away openly, it would be fine to secretly drive behind and send her back to the hotel.
How could he be so stupid!
After that, he didn't care what these people thought, he opened the door and ran out.
Zeng Qi stood up and wanted to chase him, but was stopped by Wan Jinglun.
"Let him go. He already knows everything. He won't leave without explaining things clearly and apologizing. I think he will definitely not put Bai Nuan in danger again this time. Don't worry." Wan Jinglun stood up and straightened his clothes. "I'm going back too. I have work to do tomorrow morning. Excuse me."
He understood Tan Yu'an's mood at the moment. How could he remain indifferent after knowing such a big thing?
If it were me, I would definitely insist on meeting him to apologize and get forgiveness.
At least I have to show a correct attitude.
Who can hold back at this time?
After Wan Jinglun left, the rest of the people also dispersed.
There is a group. See you in the group if something really happens.
When Bai Nuan saw Tan Yu'an calling, her first reaction was: It's terrible.
When I thought of him, I recalled that very bad rainy night. The bad guys' deeds have not been investigated yet, and they have not been convicted. Just thinking about this makes Bai Nuan uncomfortable.
The bad guys are immediately executed after doing bad things. This only happens in TV dramas. In modern times, efficiency is not that fast.
Often, for a larger case, from questioning to collecting evidence, making records, to several court sessions, and back and forth confrontations, it is normal to spend a year and a half to go through the procedures. The bigger the case, the longer it takes.
Because all the people involved need to be interrogated, evidence needs to be investigated, and transcripts need to be organized. Some cases involve crimes committed in multiple places, and the police have to work together to handle the case.
One more person means one more procedure. The work process must be retained and recorded for each step for easy reference.
So the whole process took the most time.
Fortunately, the bad guy is not free and will not do evil again.
Bai Nuan did not answer Tan Yu'an's first call and hung up directly.
Then, Tan Yu'an sent a message, and Bai Nuan frowned after reading it.
He actually knew about that thing...
After reading it, Bai Nuan called Tan Yu'an back.
"Nuannuan, I'm sorry. It's all my fault that I didn't insist on sending you back that day." As soon as the call was connected, Tan Yu'an said hurriedly, "I'm in the hotel lobby. Can we meet here? I want to apologize to you in person."
"Forget it, it's all in the past." Bai Nuan said, "I didn't want you to send me back then. I don't blame you, but I don't want to have any more entanglements with you. There's no need to meet."
"Five minutes, just five minutes, we can just meet in the hotel, no need to go out." Tan Yu'an said anxiously.
"I accept your apology and forgive you. But Tan Yu'an, it really doesn't make any difference to us whether we meet or not." Bai Nuan sighed and said.
What if we meet? It's nothing more than seeing him repent and apologize in front of me.
Don't call if you can solve it by sending a message, and don't meet if you can solve it by calling.
This is already the case for an ordinary relationship, not to mention that Bai Nuan already knew Tan Yu'an's feelings for her and was determined to reject him.
So it was even more impossible to see him, at least not when he was so emotional.
Tan Yu'an fell silent.
After learning about what happened that day, his excitement gradually cooled down, and Tan Yu'an tasted a bitter taste radiating from the inside out.
"So, have you made up your mind to never see me again in your life?" He asked disappointedly.
"We are old friends, but not enemies, so we won't be strangers forever." Bai Nuan said, "But at least before you give up on me, we should see each other as little as possible, and this is for your own good."
"Nuan Nuan, I regret it." Tan Yu'an's heart was filled with regret and guilt, "You must have been as sad as I am now."
He had been ruthless and indifferent to Bai Nuan, but now Bai Nuan has returned all of that to him.
When he was the "perpetrator", he felt nothing, only full of impatience, but when he became the "victim", he felt a mixture of emotions.
And these... were the feelings that Bai Nuan had experienced before?
Tan Yu'an felt very distressed at this moment, distressed for the girl who had been hurt by him.
If he could do it again, he would definitely not treat this girl who only cares about himself.
"It's been too long since that happened. I can't remember it anymore. I have more important things to do right now." Bai Nuan's voice was full of nonchalance. "One day you will be like me now. Life will always go on. It won't stop because of one person."
Tan Yu'an said nothing.
"Don't worry about what happened that day. I'm safe and sound, and I don't have any shadows left. On the contrary, this experience has made me more aware of crises and I know how to protect myself when I go out alone."
Bai Nuan softened her voice, "Go back, work hard, live a good life, and don't worry about me."
"Okay, you take a rest." Tan Yu'an didn't insist any more.
He didn't want to really make Bai Nuan hate him, so that she would block all contact methods of him in the future, and she wouldn't even be able to see his messages.
Now that she was like this, she was still willing to say a few more words to him and persuade him to be at ease, which seemed to be the best thing to do at the moment.
After hanging up the phone, Tan Yu'an raised his head and looked at the hotel building, as if he could see the person in his heart through the glass.
After looking for an unknown amount of time, he turned around and left.
