Chapter Sixty: A short pain is worse than a long one!



From then on, Lin Hongyu entered her life. He was there for her, crying and laughing together, watching the stars together, counting the fish in the river together, and helping her with her medical treatment. He helped her a lot, and as a result, she completed her studies...

However, fate arranged such a catastrophe; they were destined not to be together.

Ou Zihan's private room.

Xiaoyi? What a coincidence! Ou Zihan is talking business with a client today, sitting right next to Lin Hongyu. The two men are sitting back to back, separated only by a thin screen.

Is Xiaoyi having a secret rendezvous with Lin Hongyu here? Ou Zihan, who was discussing a collaboration with a female client, suddenly felt displeased.

Lin Hongyu's private room.

"Thank you," Luo Xiaoyi said, taking the contract. Her voice sounded strange. She knew, of course, about Lin Hongyu's past feelings for her, but she hadn't expected him to still be in this situation. She didn't know how to refuse him; she was afraid his already wounded heart couldn't bear it.

But perhaps a short pain is worse than a long one. Wouldn't it be crueler to keep him hoping?

"Hongyu, I'm already married. Our past is over." Luo Xiaoyi felt a pang of pain in her heart, her voice hoarse. Lin Hongyu still held a soft spot in her heart, and she couldn't remain indifferent.

"You've been separated from me for less than a month. In such a short time, why did you marry that man? What exactly happened?" Lin Hongyu questioned coldly, his voice hoarse with sorrow and pain. His bewitching black eyes were so deep and alluring, yet they revealed an unconcealable pain...

The dim blue light in the coffee shop's private room shone on her face. The pale blue light had a cool and aloof feel to it. The room was so large and decorated in a retro and luxurious style, yet it felt so empty that Luo Xiaoyi felt as if there was no oxygen in the air. She was so suffocated. Faced with Lin Hongyu's questioning, she was momentarily flustered and didn't know what to do.

Ou Zihan's marriage to her was essentially a contract. How long could such a marriage last? Besides, she had always been a substitute. Lin Hongyu's question made her feel like she was being scratched by a cat.

However, she couldn't possibly tell Lin Hongyu the truth. She had to put an end to Lin Hongyu's hopes; it would be better for both of them.

"I'm with Ou Zihan because of love." Although Luo Xiaoyi looked directly into Lin Hongyu's questioning gaze, she placed her arms on the table, interlaced her fingers, and unconsciously picked at her thumb.

Lin Hongyu immediately noticed her subtle gesture. This woman always made this gesture when she lied. Could it be that she had some unspeakable secret? Was she forced to marry that man?

Lin Hongyu narrowed his eyes slightly and furrowed his handsome brows.

In Ou Zihan's private room.

When Ou Zihan heard Luo Xiaoyi's clear statement that they were together because of love, he felt a surge of joy. It seemed that this woman was quite devoted to him.

The female CEO opposite Ou Zihan looked at him thoughtfully and became somewhat anxious. "President Ou, President Ou..." The female CEO called Ou Zihan several times before he came back to his senses.

"Oh." Ou Zihan still had that cold and handsome face, but the female CEO clearly saw a hint of joy flash across his deep black eyes. What was this man thinking? The female CEO couldn't help but wonder.

"President Ou, please take a look at this cooperation agreement. If it's suitable, please sign it." The female president handed over the contract, which Ou Zihan took with her beautiful long fingers, holding it in her hand and carefully examining the terms.

The female CEO just stared at him. Ou Zihan exuded the shrewdness, maturity, wisdom, and decisiveness of a business elite. Moreover, he was incredibly handsome, with a perfect physique and a noble, aloof demeanor. It was enough to make any woman's heart flutter uncontrollably...

At this moment, this once arrogant and powerful female CEO actually fell for President Ou...

In Lin Hongyu's private room.

"Xiaoyi, you are not good at pretending. You always pick at your fingers when you lie. Every little habit of yours is imprinted on my heart and will never be forgotten."

His dark eyes swirled with unfathomable affection, an affection that only intensified her guilt; she simply couldn't bear to look into his eyes.

"Why did you lie to me? What happened? Tell me what's bothering you, and I'll help you. Even though I lost the boxing match last time, I've quickly gotten back on my feet. Xiaoyi, if you're with him because of money, I can help you..."

Lin Hongyu had already taken her hand. Although Lin Hongyu's hand was also warm, it wasn't as fiery, reassuring, or heart-fluttering as Ou Shao's. Perhaps the answer was simple.

"Hongyu, it's not what you think. I have no secrets. I'm someone's wife now, and I want to live my own life. I hope you live your life well too. Forget about me. You'll always be as precious as family to me..."

Luo Xiaoyi withdrew her hand, and in the end she still said the most heartless words. These words were like sharp arrows that pierced Lin Hongyu's heart, causing it to bleed and ache terribly!

His eyes were bloodshot, and a layer of moisture immediately welled up in his bewitching black eyes. His eyes were so sorrowful that it was heartbreaking, and Luo Xiaoyi felt extremely distressed...

“Family? I don’t want to be your family, I want to be your lover, Xiaoyi. The only way I can forget you is if I die…” Before Lin Hongyu could finish speaking, a loud 'bang' rang out, and the glass in his hand shattered. Shards of glass embedded themselves in his flesh, and blood gushed out, yet he felt no pain…

"Hongyu, what are you doing? Why are you torturing yourself like this? Look at all the blood you've lost, how much pain must you be in! I'll take you to the hospital right now." Luo Xiaoyi had already taken a few steps to his side, grasped his arm, and looked at his bloodied and mangled hand, her heart ached and tears streamed down her face.

Lin Hongyu looked at her, who was so close to him, and saw a few tears on her beautiful and innocent face. Her expression was so tense and worried.

Lin Hongyu's face was pale, but a hint of surprise flashed in his sorrowful dark eyes. "Xiaoyi, I don't want to go to the hospital. I just want you. I only want you. You still care about me? You still love me, right? Leave him and come to me..."

Luo Xiaoyi just watched him quietly. At this moment, facing Lin Hongyu who was so heartbroken and injured, her throat was so sore that she could hardly speak.
