Chapter 1223: Never Look Back
It was almost 11pm local time, and it was already late. The greetings and celebrations should be continued tomorrow. The audience left one after another, and the event staff also left. Soon, the huge theater became quiet.
However, on the stage, the winners and their relatives were still taking photos with each other. To accommodate them, the lighting technician did not turn off the spotlights, but made them brighter. Lina was very happy taking photos, and she was in high spirits. She took a photo with one hand holding Alice and the other holding Luke; she took a photo with one hand holding Zhang Pei and the other holding Jason; she then pulled Liu? over and asked Miao Xiaomei to help them take a family photo.
Shen Mozhen did not join in their joy, but stood under the stage, watching their happiness, feeling a little envious. It would be great if her parents could be as open-minded as Lina's parents.
The lights under the stage were a little dim, making her shadow extra long and her back look a little lonely.
Huo Ming originally wanted to say hello to Lina before leaving, but when he saw Shen Mozhen, he didn't dare to get close. He stood ten rows of seats away and looked at her quietly.
At this moment, he suddenly saw a handsome and gentle man walking towards Shen Mozhen with a bouquet of white roses.
"Mozhen," Song Junzhe called Shen Mozhen gently from behind.
Shen Mozhen's body stiffened for a moment. She turned around and saw Song Junzhe. Her expression was as if she had seen a ghost, without the slightest surprise.
Song Junzhe didn't mind facing a cold face at all. Since he regretted it, he was of course prepared to be ridiculed. He raised what he thought was the most handsome and charming smile and handed the bouquet in his hand to her, "Congratulations on your successful performance."
...
...
Shen Mozhen didn't take his flowers. She frowned slightly. She felt that Song Junzhe was too close to her. She took a small step back and said, "You should give this bouquet of flowers and these words to Lina."
"I'm here for you. I know you're still mad at me. I..."
"You think too much. Why should I be angry with you?" Shen Mozhen laughed. "I won't be angry with insignificant people. It's just that your behavior bothers me. Since we have broken up, we should go our separate ways. Why are you still trying to please me here? Do you think we can still be friends? Do you think I will be grateful to you for helping me at the Pearl Club last time?"
Shen Mozhen's tone was not heavy, but the coldness and alienation in her words made Song Junzhe realize that she was not as easy to fool as before. There was a trace of loneliness in Song Junzhe's confident smile, "I didn't want to be friends with you. I apologize for hurting you before. I admit that I started pursuing you on a whim. At that time, I suddenly became interested in classical beauties. I had never tried it before, so I wanted to find a relationship of this type. I happened to meet you. You meet my requirements in all aspects. I am very moved."
Shen Mozhen remained silent about his confession. She felt it was ironic. She was overjoyed that Song Junzhe was pursuing her, thinking that she had met her true love, but in the end, he just treated her as a pet.
Shen Mozhen stood with her back to the stage. The light could not reach her face, and Song Junzhe could not see the disgust towards him in her eyes.
"I admit that I was an asshole. I treated you like my previous girlfriends. In the past, I could only date them for a few months."
"So your love affairs are timed? If the time is exceeded, it will end and you will be replaced by the next one. No wonder..." Shen Mozhen smiled.
When she smiled, Song Junzhe felt even worse. "That's not the case. I solemnly apologize to you now."
"There's really no need. Your affairs have nothing to do with me anymore. You are free to date whoever you want, what kind of girlfriend you want, how many girlfriends you want, and whether you only have a short-lived interest or a short-lived one. "
After Shen Mozhen finished speaking, she didn't want to waste any more words with Song Junzhe. She felt suffocated if she stayed with such a scumbag for one more second. She turned around to leave, but Song Junzhe stepped forward quickly and grabbed her wrist. "I regret it, I really regret it. After breaking up with you, I've been suffering every day. I've never had a good night's sleep again. Countless nights, your shadow was in my mind, as if I was possessed." Song Junzhe's tone was filled with endless regret, guilt and panic. Due to long-term insomnia, his face was very pale, the area around his eyes was black, and he had lost weight. If you look closely, the man who was only 27 years old had a trace of haggard fine lines at the corners of his eyes.
