Chapter 954: I Hope We Wouldn’t Meet Again in Our Next Lives
This man always had a way with words, but she was surprised to find that his behavior hasn’t changed three years later.
Ye Hao froze and his face turned pale while his heart raced.
“Yan Yan, you’ve misunderstood me,” he said grimly.
“Have I?” He Xiyan smiled bitterly. “It doesn’t matter whether I’ve misunderstood you or not. Ye Hao, our fate has ended so we should end on a good note. I don’t blame you for everything that has happened but I hope that we wouldn’t meet again in our next lives.”
Ye Hao was speechless.
His eyes suddenly widened and he looked extremely shocked while there was a ringing sound in his ears. He couldn’t believe what he had just heard.
How could Yan Yan say such harsh words to him?
He felt as though his heart had been crushed and he bit hard on his lips. He felt as though he couldn’t breathe.
He Xiyan heaved a long sigh. She had been keeping these words close to her heart and now, she finally revealed what she had been thinking.
All she wanted was for this man to stop hara.s.sing her in the future. She was exhausted after the two marriages she had been through.
“Please leave, Ye Hao,” He Xiyan said as she gestured for him to leave with a look of annoyance.
Ye Hao remained rooted to the spot and his earlier excitement and emotion were replaced by a heaviness in his heart. His heart felt so heavy that it made his chest hurt. He would have never imagined that Yan Yan would find him so detestable and he was shocked by her impression of him. She thought that he was a selfish and hypocritical man and even said that she hoped she wouldn’t meet again in their next lives.
Ye Hao swiped at his eyes and his eyes were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with tears again because he was so sad.
Yan Yan’s words made him feel very sad.
“I’m sorry,” he apologized yet again.
He Xiyan shook her head and she became a little teary as she blinked. She couldn’t even explain why she was crying.
“Let’s end this, Ye Hao. Stop pestering me,” she said as she turned away from him.
After they met again three years later, she realized that she could finally summon the courage to face the past.
She had once loved and was grateful for this man before she was sorely disappointed by him. Now, she no longer felt anything toward him.
“I love you!”
She suddenly heard that man’s confession.
She froze but she did not turn to look at him. His eyes were already red and swollen from crying.
It didn’t matter whether he loved her or not because it was meaningless.
“Go home,” she repeated and she had already regained her earlier composure.
She turned away, took out her key and unlocked her door. Then, she entered her house and shut the door with a loud bang, shutting out the man who was consumed with sorrow and guilt.
Ye Hao froze on the spot and his heart felt as though it was being torn apart. He stared at the door that was shut tightly for a long time.
He balled his hands into fists and slammed it against the wall. He suddenly hated himself for ruining his life and for disappointing the woman he loved so much that she had given up on him.

He Xiyan didn’t know when the man loitering outside finally left but she knew that he was nowhere to be seen on her monitor after she emerged from the bath. Then, her phone beeped with an email notification.
She opened it and saw that it was from Ye Hao. The mail was rather long and contained two to three hundred words.
She read the email.
