Chapter 11
Sitting peacefully in the park, she didn't know where she could go.
She was not a strong person, nor was she someone who could withstand pressure. She didn't know whether Cheng Xiangheng had betrayed her, and she had no right to say so, after all, he had paid for her medical expenses.
The class gap between them was so huge that even if he betrayed her, she couldn't question him.
However, she could use this as an excuse to leave him.
Ping'an is a person who wipes away her tears and keeps looking forward. She counted the salary settled by the store manager. She worked for half a month and earned two thousand yuan, which was not a loss.
Two thousand yuan, one thousand for rent, five hundred for food, and five hundred left as a reserve fund, which is already very good.
She sniffed, checked the rental ads, sorted the prices from low to high, stood up and prepared to visit them one by one.
However, the moment she stood up, Ping An almost bumped into the man behind her.
The man hugged her waist and made her sit back down.
Ping An raised his head and saw Cheng Xiangheng's face.
As the sun sets, Cheng Xiangheng's skin is coated with a layer of warm glaze, which looks breathtakingly beautiful.
He smiled at her soothingly, but when she looked over, she seemed to see a hint of sadness in his eyes.
"Ping An, did I make you sad again?"
Ping'an was silent for a moment and said nothing.
"I don't have a fiancée. My family forced me into marriage, and I wasn't there at the time." Cheng Xiangheng explained for Ping An, "I've already warned my family not to let this happen again. I've also told Miss Gu not to take the engagement seriously."
Ping An said slowly, "But she still took it seriously. Everyone thought she was your fiancée, and it even cost me my job."
Cheng Xiangheng's face quickly turned pale: "It's my fault, I'm sorry."
"Cheng Xiangheng, I've been so grateful for your care during this time. I really appreciate it. If it weren't for you, the hospital might have given up on me. So I have no right to question you."
Cheng Xiangheng held Ping'an's hand tightly: "An'an... don't say that. Thank you is what I should do. I am your boyfriend and your only relative..."
Ping An mustered up the courage to say, "But I don't think we're suitable. Let's break up."
The air was silent for a moment, and a gloomy look flashed across Cheng Xiangheng's eyes. As if he was afraid that the person in front of him would suddenly run away, he held Ping'an's hand tightly.
Ping'an didn't notice his little movements. Her heart was beating inexplicably. She didn't know why, but after saying the word "break up", she didn't feel any reluctance to Cheng Xiangheng. Instead, she felt light-hearted and excited.
She was even surprised by her own excitement, but she didn't dare show it. She always felt that her current mental state was not what Cheng Xiangheng wanted.
After a moment, Cheng Xiangheng's Adam's apple moved slightly, as if he had suppressed something, and then he slowly said, "Sister, I didn't mean to keep it secret. You were already in the ICU at the time, and I didn't have the energy to deal with these things. I just wanted to be with you. If God insists on taking you away from me, I will die with you."
Cheng Xiangheng half-knelt in front of Ping An, he raised his face and tears just happened to flow from his eyes.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on Cheng Xiangheng's face, and the tears refracted through it, beautiful and dazzling.
Ping An was bewitched by his tears for a moment, but soon came to her senses: "Xiang Heng, I know you liked me very much in the past, but we are not from the same world. Being together will only add to our troubles. You say you like me now, but can you guarantee that you will like me in the future? I can't afford the price of your betrayal. Please let me go."
Cheng Xiangheng's tears flowed even more fiercely. His shoulders hunched slightly, and he leaned bonelessly towards Ping An, who was sitting on the chair. A pitiful look appeared on his beautiful face. "Sister, we have depended on each other since we were young. I can't imagine life without you. Are you really so heartless?"
Who would have thought that the successor of the Cheng family, who was so powerful outside, would cry like an adolescent high school student in front of her?
People have been looking in Ping An's direction one after another. She was embarrassed and blushing. She wanted to pull Cheng Xiangheng up, but he didn't move. He just hugged her legs and cried so pitifully that Ping An felt embarrassed.
"But I don't want to be involved in this kind of thing anymore. I don't want to be pointed at and called a mistress for no reason."
"No, this won't happen again! I guarantee with my life that this won't happen again! Sister, can you give me another chance?"
The feelings he showed were too sincere, and Ping An was a little shaken: "Cheng Xiangheng, you won't love me forever. Sooner or later, you will throw me away like garbage, but by then I simply won't be able to bear the cost of leaving you. What should I do then?"
Cheng Xiangheng shook his head and hugged Ping'an's legs tightly: "No, we have loved each other for too long, and there is no way we can be separated in this life. If I do something to betray my sister in the future, let me be disgraced and die without a burial place!"
Ping An was persuaded: "I take back what I just said, please stop crying."
She was not a very determined person, and she was convinced by his crying.
Cheng Xiangheng didn't stop crying. His body began to tremble as he threw himself into Ping An's arms. "Sister, we're going to be together forever, right? We'll be together forever, right?"
Life is too long. How could Ping An possibly know what the future holds? She had no choice but to promise, "Yes, I won't leave you."
No one can have a long-term relationship, whether it is love or marriage. The essence of human life is ultimately loneliness. We live alone and die alone.
She didn't even believe in the promises she made to Cheng Xiangheng, she just did it to coax him.
Cheng Xiangheng finally stopped crying. Just when Ping An thought he could finally relax, he suddenly heard him say in his ear: "Really? Sister, you are not lying to me, right?"
The sound was very soft, but it made Ping'an's scalp tingle.
