Without feelings, even if you remain single until you're seventy or eighty, you'll still just be childhood sweethearts.
They cannot become lovers or spouses.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Xu Jiajia couldn't stop crying; the burns hurt, but her heart ached even more.
Uncle He scolded her, "Alright, stop crying, it's embarrassing. I'll go open the door."
Xu Jiajia was still crying.
Uncle He sighed and went to open the door.
Xu Jiajia was still sobbing uncontrollably, heartbroken and devastated.
Uncle He was taken aback: "Fourth Master, what brings you here?"
Xu Jiajia froze, stopped crying, opened her eyes, and looked up. Sure enough, she saw Xiao Jinhan's handsome face that she was so infatuated with.
She jumped up from the sofa, ran straight to Xiao Jinhan, and threw herself into his arms.
"Fourth Master, sob sob..."
Xiao Jinhan frowned slightly; he didn't like being in such close contact with women.
He gripped her shoulders tightly and pulled her away from his embrace.
Xu Jiajia looked at him, overwhelmed with pain.
Fourth Master never touched her, except when she was very young and he held her hand. As she grew up, he kept his distance from her at all times.
The only time they embraced was on the day her parents passed away, when he comforted her all night long.
It was at that time that she realized she had already fallen in love with him.
He said he would take care of her for the rest of his life, and she believed him.
Therefore, she always believed that she was Xiao Jinhan's fiancée.
Even if he is impotent, she doesn't care, as long as she can be with him...
But today, she finally felt her position being shaken.
Xiao Jinhan came to see her, and she thought that he still had feelings for her, but when he pushed her away, he was so resolute and without the slightest hesitation.
In that instant, it felt like waking up from a dream that had lasted for over ten years.
It's all because of Tang Yaoyao.
Without Tang Yaoyao, she would have been the woman by Fourth Master's side; it's all her fault.
Xiao Jinhan distanced himself from her and looked down at the burns on her calves, which seemed quite serious.
Seeing this, Uncle He said, "Then I'll go out first..."
“No need, Uncle He, you are Jiajia’s only relative in this world, and also her elder. You should be here.” Xiao Jinhan’s deep voice interrupted him.
Uncle He had no choice but to stand there.
Xu Jiajia bit her lip, trying to control her sobs, but tears still fell one after another, making her look very pitiful.
"Does it still hurt?"
He seemed to care about her, but his tone was particularly cold.
As Xu Jiajia listened, her eyes grew increasingly moist, and tears streamed down her face: "It hurts..."
Her tone was also somewhat coquettish.
Xiao Jin's cold, deep voice was flat: "It should hurt."
Xu Jiajia's face turned pale instantly. She looked at him, bewildered, and felt like bursting into tears.
Uncle He sighed inwardly.
"Fourth Master, I..."
Xiao Jinhan interrupted her: "Only through pain can you remember things at all times. Don't be so clever."
Upon hearing this, Xu Jiajia felt utterly hopeless.
She sobbed softly, but couldn't utter a single word.
Tang Yaoyao's simple statement, "I'm in pain," is enough to get her to order around buying this and that.
Her words of pain elicited no response from him.
Xiao Jinhan's cold voice rang out again: "Did you remember?"
Xu Jiajia clenched her fists, her voice trembling, "Fourth Master, I've remembered everything."
She will remember the pain and grievances she suffered today for the rest of her life.
Remember that all of this is thanks to Tang Yaoyao.
