"You mean it's all over?"

He glared at her with a furious, bloodthirsty look, "It's unbelievable, Shen Xuan, how could you be so heartless? How could I have blindly worshipped you and poured all my emotions into you in the past? Now it seems like such a foolish thing to do."

As the rage in his words grew more pronounced, he forcefully lifted his hand upwards and then shoved it violently, causing the woman to lose her balance and fall to the cold, hard ground, her palms almost bleeding from the friction.

"If you can be so resolute and ruthless about past feelings, then you have no reason to regret your choices today."

At this moment, the man clenched his fists and supported himself on the sink, his whole body looking unusually weak and listless, like a ferocious beast about to lose control and go berserk.

She could only curl up helplessly on the ground, clutching her injured hand tightly, her eyes glazed over, her heart aching as if being torn apart by a thousand sharp daggers at the same time.

"Since that's the case, then whatever happens in the future, we will no longer have any connection to it."

After leaving behind those cold words, the man straightened up from beside the sink, then turned and left without giving her another glance.

"gentlemen!"

The assistant's voice was filled with anxiety.

"Return to Jiangcheng immediately."

He spoke coldly as he walked to the wardrobe, picked up his coat, and was clearly prepared to leave immediately.

"What about Miss Shen?"

Seeing that he didn't seem to be stopping, the assistant cautiously stepped forward to ask, afraid of further displeasing his boss.

"Ignore her and let her handle it herself."

His answer was brief and resolute; he didn't even raise his head.

"But... Miss Shen is left here all alone..."

The assistant continued to try to say something, hoping to salvage the situation, even if it was just a tiny glimmer of hope.

"From now on, never mention this name in front of me again. There is no such person in Jiangcheng."

This time he practically roared it out, his resolute tone sending chills down one's spine, as if he wanted to erase not only the memory of this person, but also all the beautiful memories of the past.

Watching that figure grow ever more distant, ever more indifferent, until finally disappearing completely from sight, even leaving the room door unclosed in its haste, just like that, abandoning the woman who was still sobbing in the room.

All that remained in the air was a suffocating chill and an overwhelming sense of heartache and loneliness.

Sitting alone on the cold floor, I curled up into a small ball to seek some warmth and comfort. The surroundings were silent except for the intermittent sound of my own sobs, which lasted for a long, long time before gradually subsiding.

She came with good intentions, hoping to ease the tension between the two and try to repair their broken relationship, but the result was so dismal.

Could it be that I really underestimated his temper?

Or has she always overestimated her importance in his heart?

Just because he said a few words that slightly touched on the other person's emotional sensitivities, a conflict was triggered again, ultimately leading to his angry departure.

Just as my mind went blank and I was at a loss, a familiar yet suddenly somewhat unfamiliar figure came into view.

When Shen Xuan looked up and saw the person who had come, his eyes revealed obvious confusion and bewilderment.

Looking at the disheveled appearance before him, clearly the result of a fierce internal struggle, Lu Yuchen couldn't help but frown and sigh inwardly.

When did this woman, who was once so confident and never easily changed her attitude for others, begin to become so vulnerable?

After a long while, and only after confirming that the other person had noticed her arrival and had calmed down and was no longer as flustered as before, she slowly opened her lips and whispered, "Do you still want to go back?"

Upon hearing this, Miss Shen was taken aback for a moment, then gave a bitter smile and asked, "Can I still go back? Is there still a place for me over there?"

As she spoke, she struggled to stand up, her movements slow and clumsy, clearly due to an injury to a joint she had inadvertently sustained during her earlier emotional outburst.

Even though the bright red mark on her wrist was carefully concealed by her long sleeves, the slightest movement still sent shivers of pain through her, reminding her that what had just happened was no dream.

As she turned to leave, Lu Yuchen watched her receding figure, his eyes filled with complex emotions. He clenched his fists tightly, his fingertips almost digging into his palms.

If it weren't for a particular person, perhaps the two of them wouldn't have ended up in such a predicament.

That was someone who had sown seeds of misunderstanding and distrust between the two, making the current situation even more complicated.

As I walked out of this unfamiliar city and environment with my head down, I felt a sudden sense of bewilderment.

The road ahead seemed shrouded in mist, leaving her feeling lost and completely unsure of her next destination.

Three days later, she finally appeared outside a private residence.

After wrapping his coat tightly around himself, he got out of the car and went straight into a nearby, unassuming Western restaurant to look for someone.

Jin Shuying sat in an inconspicuous spot, absentmindedly fiddling with an exquisite pendant in her hand, her face showing a hint of disappointment and unease.

Upon seeing this, he walked towards Kim Suk-young without hesitation and quickly reclaimed what originally belonged to him before she was completely absorbed in her own world and unaware of it.

This sudden action jolted Kim Suk-young out of her daze, and her gaze instantly focused on the person standing in front of her.

The slight arrogance that had been lingering on his lips vanished completely upon recognizing the person before him, replaced by a complex mix of emotions and an unconcealable worry. "You've come?"

Although the words were brief, their heavy tone revealed the true emotional turmoil deep within.

Seeing the other party's reaction, Shen Xuan gripped the item she had just received even tighter with impatience, and replied in a cold voice, "Did you invite me here not just to return this item? Or do you have some unknown purpose in mind?"

Her gaze was sharp and unabashed, directly pointing out the other person's hidden thoughts, as if she had already seen through all the hypocrisy and pretense.

"That's not it! You've misunderstood... I'm really not as bad as you think. Please sit down, we can talk this out."

At this moment, Kim Suk-young suddenly changed her previous aloof attitude and tried to ease the tense atmosphere between them with a gentler approach.
