Chapter 510: A Candid Goodbye
As soon as Song Cun walked out of the hotel entrance, he saw the eye-catching Porsche.
Her heart tightened and her legs became stiff and unable to move. In her peripheral vision, the driver's door opened and a familiar figure got out of the car and walked towards her step by step.
In the early morning, a faint light with misty water vapor slanted down, gradually waking up everything around. There were already many office workers queuing in front of several breakfast shops nearby.
Song Cun was hesitating about which direction to take, when Liang Zhouheng's tall figure appeared in front of her.
He lowered his head slightly, his gaze falling on her swollen eyes. His voice sounded even drier than on the phone, "Let's talk in the car."
Song Cun didn't look up at him. She stood there without moving. She would not get in the car with him again.
But there were people all around him, and both his car and he himself stood out in this narrow street full of the hustle and bustle of the early morning.
Song Cun didn't say anything, but changed direction and walked towards the other end of the street, which was quieter and more deserted.
He paused slightly, then followed.
The two men walked silently on the street, one in front and the other behind. From time to time, someone would pass by them in a hurry, and when passing by, they would glance at the faces of the two men one after another.
Song Cunwei lowered his head, as if he had withdrawn from the world around him. He could only hear the "tapping" and "tapping" sounds of leather shoes stepping on the floor tiles behind him.
He took big steps, one step equal to two of hers, so he seemed to be walking slowly.
He said he was just looking at her, but now he had followed her for a hundred meters.
He really didn't say a word, but every step he took seemed to step on her tense nerves. She seemed to fall into his palm again and be rubbed repeatedly by him.
She had willingly given herself completely to him before, but now, the presence of him approaching made her want to escape.
She looked up and saw a subway station a hundred meters ahead. She couldn't help but stop.
He followed her gaze and glanced into the distance, then fixed his eyes on her again.
She didn't turn around, but suddenly spoke, "I received the message you asked Jiang Yuan to convey. I don't hate you, but I don't want to delve into the truth anymore. If I really misunderstood you, I apologize for my overreaction yesterday."
He felt a little relieved, and just as he raised his hand to touch her shoulder, she continued to speak, "But, I still plan to break up with you. Brother Liang, thank you for all the kindness you have shown me during this period of time. Those beautiful things are enough to cover up all the dust. Thank you for teaching me how to love myself and take care of myself. What I said yesterday was that breaking up with you early would be beneficial and not harmful. In fact, it was a lie. I don't regret talking to you about this. But we are indeed from different worlds. I overestimated my ability to withstand it. If something like this happens again in the future, I am not sure if I will be crushed. So, just think of me as a deserter. I don't want to take any risks."
Liang Zhouheng's hand almost touched her shoulder, but he pulled it back in time.
Although she was so close to him, she had become untouchable to him. She always turned her back on him and didn't even want him to look at her again.
Every word she said fell clearly into his ears, like a soft knife, stabbing directly into his lungs.
His chest had never felt so tight as it did now.
What she said was decisive, straightforward, honest and decent. She was very rational and was protecting herself from the dangerous factor of him.
He was usually so good at tempting her, but now, he couldn't utter a single word.
"Brother Liang, I have to go to work. I will go to the company today and submit my resignation. I'm leaving first."
At this moment, she finally turned around and looked at him, but it was just a glance.
He finally spoke, "You don't have to resign. You can continue to do your job as before."
"I want a change of scenery."
She is forcing herself to stop eating.
He was silent for a few seconds and replied, "Okay."
With her ability and diligence, she will be good wherever she goes.
"Um."
She responded, then turned around and walked forward.
Her figure became smaller and smaller as she walked. He didn't know if she was crying. It was very likely that she was, but he kept his feet on the ground and didn't take another step forward.
