Chapter 298 Let's Break Up
Lu Ning looked at Ji Chiqian in front of her, and originally wanted to say some harsh words. Chen Guoguo had already thought of the lines for her.
But at that moment, after she finished speaking, tears streamed down her face.
Lu Ning hadn't expected her to cry so hard.
Ji Chiqian was stunned. Seeing Lu Ning crying so sadly, he quickly took a towel to wipe her tears: "I was not with any other woman that night."
Lu Ning pushed his hand away: "Ji Chiqian, I've thought about this for a long time these past few days. Let's break up."
When Ji Chiqian heard the word "breakup," his pupils contracted.
Without even thinking, he refused outright: "No, I won't agree."
"Ji Chiqian, this is not a matter of whether you agree or not."
Lu Ning wiped away her tears: "I'm very serious, we're not a good match."
"Lu Ning, we've only been together for such a short time, how do you know we're not compatible?"
Ji Chiqian was seething with anger: "Or is it that you've fallen for another guy, which is why you broke up with me?"
This is the reason why Lu Ning has been ignoring him these past few days.
Lu Ning slapped his hand away: "Think whatever you want. Didn't you say there were a lot of handsome guys my age in college, and that I would start a new life when I got to college? Now I realize you were right, I get along better with people my own age."
"Lu Ning!"
Ji Chiqian's eyes were dark, as if they held a storm.
He stared at her: "I know you were just saying that out of anger."
"I wasn't saying this out of anger. I'm serious. Let go, I'm leaving."
Lu Ning was pinned against the boxing ring railing by Ji Chiqian, his strength quite considerable: "You provoked me, and now you think you can just break up with me like that?"
Ji Chiqian lowered his head to kiss her, but Lu Ning turned her head away, though she was no match for his strength.
He held her captive in his arms, and the kiss was anything but gentle; it was aggressive.
Lu Ning felt furious. What did he take her for?
She bit him hard and slapped him across the face: "Ji Chiqian, you clearly have a fiancée, why are you still bothering me?"
He was stunned: "I don't have a fiancée."
"Oh, no fiancée? But the entertainment headlines just reported that you and Miss Mo are getting married soon. How long do you plan to keep this a secret?"
Lu Ning looked at him: "You're the heir of the Ji family, aren't you?"
Ji Chiqian's hand trembled slightly. He tried to grab her in a panic, but she dodged to the side.
His hand grasped at empty air and froze in mid-air.
Ji Chiqian didn't know what expression to make, so he just looked at Lu Ning and said in a hoarse voice, "I originally wanted to tell you today, but you've been angry, and I was afraid that if I told you, you would be angry too."
But he never expected that Lu Ning would find out his identity.
That explains Lu Ning's unusual behavior these past two days.
He thought Lu Ning was angry because he hadn't replied to her messages.
Lu Ning's eyes were filled with sarcasm: "Do you think that if you tell us, there's still a possibility for us to continue?"
Ji Chiqian recalled asking Lu Ning this question before, and her answer at the time was to break up.
He answered cautiously, "I have no engagement with Mo Shiyi at all. It has always been my mother and the Mo family's idea. I have never agreed to this."
When Lu Ning thought of Madam Ji, she felt very strange, after all, Madam Ji had been quite nice to her before.
But Madam Ji must have known that she was with Ji Chiqian that day at the Pear Garden.
No wonder Madam Ji didn't even greet her back then.
Lu Ning wiped away her tears: "But that night, you didn't reply to my messages. I called you once, and Mo Shiyi answered."
If there's really no connection, then why did Mo Shiyi get his phone?
Ji Chiqian thought about it carefully: "I was in a hurry to take Grandma to the hospital, so I must have lost my phone there. She picked it up for me, but I didn't know she answered your call, and she didn't say anything."
How can I believe you?
Lu Ning looked at him calmly, but she was still very sad inside.
She said, "I've never doubted you, yet you've lied to me for so long. Once trust is broken, it's impossible to trust anyone again."
"Lu Ning, that's not how it is. I didn't mean to hide my identity."
"Okay, then tell me why?"
Lu Ning also wanted to know the reason.
Ji Chiqian looked at her, unable to bring himself to talk about the car accident from back then.
Lu Ning once said that she hated the perpetrator and also hated the people in the back seat of the car.
At that moment, he finally understood what it meant to be heartbroken.
Grandma was right. He should have made things clear a long time ago. Now he just can't bring himself to say it because he doesn't want to lose her.
He seems to have reached a dead end; he wants to turn back, but there's no way out.
Lu Ning looked at him: "Tell me, why?"
But the man opposite her fell silent.
Lu Ning's eyes held a self-deprecating look. She had a rough idea of why he had kept his identity a secret because they were not a good match.
What about the time the two spent together?
Lu Ning picked up the boxing gloves next to her and handed them to him: "Here, take this back. I'll also return the things you sent to the dorm."
Ji Chiqian glanced at the red boxing gloves, but didn't take them.
Lu Ning let go of her hand, and the boxing glove fell to the ground.
Ji Chiqian looked down at the boxing gloves lying on the ground. The bright red color was a bit glaring. He took a step forward and wanted to take Lu Ning's hand, but she dodged away in advance.
He said in a hoarse voice, "This was my fault, but I don't want to break up."
Lu Ning's eyes were exceptionally calm: "A relationship built on lies is fragile beyond repair. The person I like is Dr. Ji, not the heir of the Ji family."
When Ji Chiqian met her eyes, he felt as if he were enveloped in a net, unable to break free.
His heart sank.
He understood Lu Ning. Although she usually seemed gentle, once she made a decision, it was difficult to change her mind.
Lu Ning took a few steps back: "Ji Chiqian, let's end this here."
"No, I don't agree."
"Don't ruin our memories. You know in your heart that we can't go on. Your current identity will only bring me endless trouble. I just want to live a peaceful life."
Lu Ning turned and left the boxing ring. The moment she turned away, tears streamed down her face.
She prepared so many lines, but in the end, she couldn't utter more than two.
She would never forget the scene when Mo Shiyi asked her to meet him at the coffee shop.
She didn't know what else Ji Chiqian was still hiding from her besides this matter.
She doesn't dare to gamble, nor does she want to gamble anymore.
Separation is the best option.
"Lu Ning, stop right there!"
Ji Chiqian chased after him, and as he flipped off the boxing ring, he tripped over it.
