With a snap, the light in the room was turned on. Ou Qianyi sat on the bed disheveled, looking at Masnian who had walked to the door, with a trace of anger in her eyes.
"Si Nian, what do you want? I've already done this, and you still want to refuse? Am I not humble enough?"
Hearing such a question, Masnian turned around, looked at Ou Qianyi's crimson face, half-naked and sexy dress, his eyes immediately glanced elsewhere, and then he said with a slight guilt.
"I'm sorry. I said that we are equals. You don't have to do these things. As long as you think clearly, our engagement will always be valid. I still hope to wait until we get married to do those things. I will be in the study tonight. You
Anyone can come to me if anything happens."
After saying that, Masnian left the bedroom.
When Masnian came to the study, he sat on the chair like a deflated rubber ball, with a look of confusion on his face, his hands supporting his drooped head, and his eyes filled with deep guilt.
Just now, when he was getting intimate with Ou Qianyi, Xiao Yingxi's innocent and attractive face flashed before his eyes, and even for a moment, he actually expected in his heart that the woman under him was Xiao Yingxi.
Suddenly, Masnian slapped himself twice. It was he who chose to stay in his brother's position, even at the expense of hurting Xiao Yingxi. But now, he couldn't help but think about that woman, Masnian.
I feel like a complete bastard. He has hurt two women who love him.
"Mas Nian, please wake up. You are the one who wants to be her brother. How can you still have those dirty thoughts?"
Masnian kept reminding himself to let go of those distracting thoughts, but there were some things that he couldn't just let go of.
Just like he clearly came to Nanyun City and wanted everything to return to normal, but every time in the dead of night, he couldn't help but think about Xiao Yingxi, her smile, and her presence.
How are you doing in Hwaseong?
At this moment, Masnian was extremely irritable, fluttering back and forth between following his heart and being restrained and forbearing.
Looking at the open cigarette case on the table, he lit a cigarette and just sat in the dark, smoking to vent his boredom, but even so, his heart never seemed to be calm.
Ou Qianyi, who was in the bedroom at this time, was no better. Masnian's departure deeply hurt her heart.
She was just short of the last step, but in the end, she was abandoned by Mas Nian. What kind of mood can a man be able to get away in time in such a confused and infatuated situation? Whenever a man has feelings for a woman,
Even a little bit of heartbeat would not lead to such a result.
Looking at the empty room, Ou Qianyi felt extremely cold. The smell of Mas Nian still seemed to remain on her body, but she felt extremely lonely.
Ou Qianyi got out of bed, picked up the coat on the floor, put it on her body, and walked out of the bedroom she occupied.
When she passed by the study, she smelled the pungent smell of smoke. She frowned slightly. She had been with Mas Nian for two years. She had never seen Mas Nian smoke before. What they did just now was so embarrassing.
Masnian couldn't accept it, so he vented his anger by smoking.
Ou Qianyi gathered her coat and pushed open the study door.
It was dark inside, and a thick smoke drifted in. She coughed slightly, and looked inside, only to see a looming firelight in the darkness, and a somewhat cold figure.
Masnian turned around. The lights were on in the corridor. He could clearly see the loss and sadness on Ou Qianyi's face, and he felt deeply guilty again.
"You go back to the bedroom, I'll go back to my room, good night."
After saying that, Ou Qianyi turned around and prepared to leave. Maybe this was the last dignity she left for herself.
Just when Ou Qianyi turned around and was about to leave, Mas Nian stood up and walked over.
"Qianyi, I'm sorry."
"There's no need to say sorry. This kind of thing is a matter of mutual consent. I should have known that you are a traditional man. I was the one who acted impulsively. It's me who should say sorry."
Ou Qianyi really fell in love with this man. She knew clearly that Mas Nian didn't love her, but she was still trying hard to find a way out for this man.
Hearing these words, Mas Nian felt even more guilty towards Ou Qian. He was silent for a long time. Just when Ou Qianyi thought Mas Nian would not speak, Mas Nian spoke again.
"Qianyi, otherwise, you should go back to Huacheng tomorrow."
After thinking about it, Masnian didn't want to hurt a woman who truly loved him because he wanted to escape from something. Maybe letting go was the best choice.
Hearing this, Ou Qianyi's nose felt sour, but she still resisted the tears that were rolling in her eyes. She turned around, looked at Masnian in the dark, smiled bitterly, and asked.
"So, you are breaking up with me, right?"
Facing Ou Qianyi's question, Masnian fell into silence for a long time. He took two puffs of cigarette and said cruelly.
"Maybe you are right. Marriage must be between two people who love each other to be happy. Suitability does not mean happiness. Qianyi, you are a very good girl. You deserve a man who knows how to cherish you more. I'm sorry."
At that moment, Masnian suddenly wanted to understand one thing. He could not hurt another girl because he wanted to escape from something, let alone use other people's love for him to do things that would hurt her for the rest of his life.
In the past, Masnian agreed to be with Ou Qianyi, thinking that this would allow him to play the role of an older brother without any distractions. But this time when he returned to China, he realized that everything was too simple as he thought. Some feelings had already been there for a long time.
He has deep roots in his heart, and it's not like just finding someone can make the feelings in his heart fade away.
Hearing Mas Nian's words, Ou Qianyi didn't know what words to use to express her feelings at the moment, whether she should be grateful for this man's frankness or hate this man's coldness.
"Mas Nian, I came all the way here with the intention of marrying you, but you made such a request after rejecting my initiative. Can you not be so ruthless? I'm afraid
I said, I don’t care whether you love me or not. Don’t you want a suitable marriage? I can give it to you. Why would you say such heartless words in such a situation? Can you take my feelings into consideration.”
Ou Qianyi was also angry. The person she had loved carefully for two years could be so straightforward.
But it was her luck that a man who had never loved her could accommodate her for two years. How could she expect this man to be gentler to her?
The strong Ou Qianyi could not withstand the harm done to her by Mas Nian, and tears burst out uncontrollably.
Seeing the sad and crying Ou Qianyi, Masnian was also a little panicked. He walked over and wanted to comfort him, but he hesitated for a long time and did not reach out. Instead, he stood one meter away and looked at Ou Qianyi with a frown.
Said in a low voice.
"I just feel like we can't maintain the peaceful harmony between us like we did in the UK. If a relationship brings more pain to both parties than happiness, then the relationship is about to end."
Having said this, Masnian took another puff of cigarette, then put out the cigarette butt, threw it into the trash can, and then slowly spoke again.
"Qianyi, I felt that we already had a tacit understanding before. It was only during my return to China that I saw some things clearly. I can also feel that you were unhappy during this time. Since our relationship is no longer able to
If it makes you feel happy, then why do you have to work so hard to maintain it? If you leave me, you have better choices, and you also have the career you want, but now I just want to stay in Nanyun City, I want to live in this
The place where I was born, if you stay here, all your efforts in the past few years will be wasted."
Masnian is very aware of the situation of the Ou family and the problems that Ou Qianyi has been facing. He said this not to shirk responsibility, but to rationally hope that Ou Qianyi can make the right choice.
"Stop talking, Masnian, can you stop talking, don't you just want me to leave? Why are you doing this? I've said it before, I don't care if you love me or not, I just want to be with you,
I want to be your wife, why do you push me away?"
Ou Qianyi completely collapsed. She had worked so hard, even to the point of angering her father and traveling thousands of miles to find him. But what she got in the end was this ending. Then all her efforts turned into a joke.
Seeing Ou Qianyi breaking down and crying, Masnian frowned slightly. Just when he was about to say something to make Ou Qianyi calm down, Ou Qianyi suddenly raised her head and said firmly.
"Mas Nian, let me ask you one last time, if I say that I don't regret any of the choices I make, and if I still firmly want to marry you, will you marry me?"
"I……"
When Masnian heard this question, he opened his mouth, but Ou Qianyi interrupted him again.
"I don't want to know your answer now. I'm tired. I'm going back to my room to rest."
With that said, Ou Qianyi turned and walked to her room. In fact, at this moment, she was also panicking. She did not dare to listen to Mas Nian's answer, and in the end she could only choose to escape.
Looking at Ou Qianyi's sad back, Masnian felt deeply guilty. He wanted to cut the trouble quickly, but now, he couldn't bear it. After all, this girl had been with him in England for two years.
When Ou Qianyi walked into the bedroom and was about to close the door, she turned around and looked at Masnian, and said in a particularly firm tone.
"Si Nian, even if you don't love me, I will not give up on you. I also ask you to remember the promise you made to me when you returned to China. You said you would marry me, even if it is a marriage without love. As a husband,
As long as it's your name, Masnian, I won't regret it."
After saying that, Ou Qianyi closed the door with a bang. The next second, Ou Qianyi's whole body was like a deflated ball, without any life left.
