1783 A Drunk Mind Speaks a Sober Heart Part Twenty-Eigh

Suddenly, he had a sudden surge of courage. He stepped forward and hugged her tightly. “Zhou Shuang, you care about me.”

He had always thought that she didn’t care about him and that he didn’t matter to her. He hated her callousness.

But today… He finally realized that she cared about him.

“So what?” Zhou Shuang pushed him away with force. She took a huge step back and stared at him. She coldly raised her eyebrows. “Caring for you doesn’t mean that I have to be with you.”

It had been almost five years. He finally realized that she cared for him.

She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Lu Yinan wanted to step forward, but her cold glare held him in place. He looked at her in confusion. “If you care about me, and I care about you, why can’t we be together?”

“Ha ha.” Zhou Shuang chuckled sarcastically.

Lu Yinan couldn’t comprehend. He frowned as he stared at her. He said in a serious tone, “What is it about me that you’re unhappy with? Can you tell me if I hurt you unintentionally? Even if I deserve the death penalty, don’t I deserve to know what I’ve done wrong?”

“I’m not taking the kids. Aren’t they all you want? I let you have your way. What more do you want?” Zhou Shuang asked, her voice near a roar.

She was unleas.h.i.+ng her pent-up anger.

He thought, ‘Let her vent her anger. At least I’ll know what I did wrong, and why she’s angry.’

However, Zhou Shuang suddenly turned around and continued walking.

Lu Yinan chased after her. “Zhou Shuang.”

Zhou Shuang ignored him and quickened her pace.

“I want you too.”

Lu Yinan declared loudly, and all the pa.s.sers-by turned to look at him.

He was stunned when he realized what he had just said.

What… did he say just now?

He wasn’t planning on saying that to her. But after the words left his mouth, he realized that those were his thoughts all along.

Did Zhou Shuang really… have a special place in his heart? Had he really fallen for her?

Zhou Shuang halted in her tracks. His words replayed in her mind.

‘I want you too.’

They were less than 10 meters apart, but Lu Yinan felt that a thousand miles separated them.

He was afraid. He stretched out his hand, but could not reach out to her.

Zhou Shuang continued walking, not turning back. She disappeared into the distance.

Lu Yinan suddenly lost his courage. He didn’t want to face her nonchalant and cold att.i.tude.

He didn’t want to accept the fact that this time, she wanted to leave him for good.

He suddenly realized that for the past few years, there was a woman who bore him three children and stayed by his side without an official status like a fool.

Although he brought up marriage a couple of times, she didn’t agree…

No, it wasn’t that she refused. But rather, he was all talk and no action. He never proposed to her once.

Ming Ansheng and that little la.s.s were right. He never once put in an effort to chase her.

Indeed, one only knew what was valuable after they’ve lost it.

…

“Shuang is at Peace Street. I’m going to find her,” Xuxu helplessly said to Yan Rusheng. She just ended her call with Zhou Shuang.

“What’s wrong with these two?” Yan Rusheng frowned. “I just received a message from Lu Yinan. He’s at The First Wealth and wants me to go over.”
