Ling Jiao remained silent. Of course, she understood that if it were just a previous working relationship, why would he go to such lengths to build a private 3D holographic projection hall, which was only meant to let her see the relatives she most wanted to see?
Faced with Fu Shiqin's feelings, besides joy, she felt mostly fear and a sense of helplessness.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Fu Shiqin gave a self-deprecating sneer.
"So, in your eyes, I went to all this trouble to build this projection room for you, to fulfill your wish, just so I could sleep with you for one night?"
He kept thinking he had misunderstood her last night, so he kept confirming her meaning.
She was very proactive, so he assumed she truly understood what he meant.
As a result, she took it as a way of repaying him, and as soon as she got out of bed, she wanted to settle things with him and end it all.
Last night he thought he was the happiest person in the world, but after just one night, he became the most pathetic and ridiculous person in the world.
Ling Jiao restrained her emotions and explained.
“Fu Shiqin, that’s not what I meant. It’s just… we are from different worlds.”
She dared not accept his affections; she could not afford them.
She knew very well what kind of person he was; she wasn't the one who could bring him happiness.
"People from different worlds?" Fu Shiqin chuckled coldly and asked, "How can we not be from the same world? Just because my surname is Fu, just because my family has some money, does that mean we're not from the same world?"
Ling Jiao closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and restrained her emotions and expression.
"Fu Shiqin, is it really impossible for me to be with you?"
“Tell me why there’s no way, and I’ll think of a solution,” Fu Shiqin said in a deep voice.
He knew that she was sensitive because of her family background, so he had always been careful to take care of her feelings. Until yesterday, he didn't even dare to show his own feelings too obviously.
He always accompanied and cared for her with utmost care.
He thought he had been waiting for her to finally understand his feelings, but in the end, she gave him such a cold shower.
“There’s no way,” Ling Jiao said.
"How do you know I have no way if you don't tell me?" Fu Shiqin persisted.
Last night I was all lovey-dovey with him, but as soon as I got out of bed I wanted to break up with him. No way!
Ling Jiao slowly raised his head, looked at the person who was questioning him, and said.
"Fu Shiqin, I have someone I like."
"Who is it?" Fu Shiqin's eyes flashed with coldness.
He knew very well who was around her, and so far there was no one to suspect.
Ling Jiao did not answer him, but said...
“We agreed before that if one of us had someone we liked, we would end our relationship.”
"Stop? I slept with you, and you think you can just stop like that? What do you take me for, Fu Shiqin? A disposable bedding item?" Fu Shiqin retorted.
Ling Jiao checked the time, got up, picked up her bag, and said.
"I have someone I like, and it's not you."
"Then you have to tell me who that person is before I can give up." Fu Shiqin refused to give up.
He refused to believe that anyone could steal his love away from him.
"If I told you, what would you do? Persecute him, or make him disappear from this world?" Ling Jiao asked with a light laugh.
"I'm not going to do anything to him. I just want to know which bastard dares to steal my man," Fu Shiqin said angrily.
Ling Jiao never answered who that person was, but instead said...
"Fu Shiqin, let's end this."
“I was thinking about starting, and you’re already thinking about ending it? I don’t agree,” Fu Shiqin said firmly.
