Chapter 157 – She’s got a soft mouth
A comment that froze Mia in place.
The rain, becoming heavier and heavier, splattered the car like feathered arrows, and soon it was a sea of rain all around.
A cool breeze, wrapped in heavy rain, blew over, and Mia shivered inexplicably, unable to resist the urge to shrink herself, only to find that she was soaked to the bone and had no way to warm herself.
“Well, don’t get angry, you’re bound to get sick if you keep getting wet like that.” Twisting her head slightly to see Mia’s hair clinging to her face, her face pale and blue, and she couldn’t help but wince, Asher’s voice held a hint of anxiety.
He just couldn’t bear it, seeing her sick again.
“Achoo!” No sooner had he finished his sentence than Mia sneezed, and an unnatural blush had begun to form on a small face, and Asher took the opportunity to reach out, only to find her forehead rolling and her eyes gradually beginning to turn misty.
“Mia , you weren’t well in the first place, and just now you were caught in the rain, now I’ll take you to the hospital, okay?” As if afraid that Mia would refuse, Asher immediately continued before she could respond, “If you really don’t want to see me, I will leave after I take you to the hospital and will inform Namgung to ask to take care of you, okay?”
There was a moment of silence.
Mia slowly closed her eyes, hiding her emotions, but a different feeling slowly came over her heart. This man, was he begging for himself?
But why, why do people always know to cherish everything when they lose it? If he had been able to be the same five years ago as he was now, there wouldn’t have been so many things that were too painful to forget, and there wouldn’t have been hatred erected between two people like a thick wall of ice.
Should I hate him?
However, he didn’t seem to be feeling much better than herself right now, and she knew his cold to the core personality, yet he had repeatedly descended to beg for her sake. Every now and then, she realized that the hatred she had spent five years forging was actually quite fragile.
She was afraid she simply couldn’t be hard enough to hate him, so she pretended to be cold and refused to see him.
Should I forgive him?
Every time she thought of the baby she had lost five years ago, Mia’s heart immediately filled with grief and resentment, and even if Asher hadn’t done that, she hated him for his coldness at the time and for destroying the baby so hard.
What was she supposed to do when she couldn’t even love or hate?
However, after Nangong asked to leave, he drove his car and wandered the streets for a long time before finally arriving at the bar where Wang Yuxin was, seemingly, subconsciously.
“What are you doing here? You, aren’t you accompanying Mia anymore?” The moment she saw him, Wang Yuxin, who had always been big-hearted, still had a suspicious blush flashing across her face, but she immediately changed the subject.
How long had it been since she’d seen him? To her shame, she actually thought of him from time to time. Now that he was actually here, she was actually so nervous that she couldn’t mix a glass of wine properly, and one hand was trembling slightly.
Nangong asked without looking at her, only hanging his head deeply, with a faint despondency in his voice, “Can you drink a few glasses with me?”
Wang Yuxin was stunned.
Finally, she still gave up her work to another colleague, and came to an inconspicuous quiet corner with Nangong Man, poured a glass of wine for Nangong Man and herself, her eyes fixed on the scarlet liquid like blood in the glass, and spoke in a low voice, “Well, what’s the matter, just say it!”
In fact, how could she not know that Nangong asked such a despondent demeanor for Mia? It was just that she was not willing to bring it up herself, and still thought of giving the man in front of her a final base to retain his privacy.
Nangong asked without speaking immediately, only twisting his head to look at the people writhing under the various lights, his handsome face with a faint sadness, before finally speaking abruptly after Wang Yuxin had waited for a long time, “I’ve arranged a place for him to go over!”
“Huh?” The ambiguity in Nangong’s question caused Wang Yuxin to be stunned, but then she reacted and faintly responded, “Oh!”Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Since Nangong asked was willing to come to her, he must have something to confide in, right?
If she had some role to play with him, even if it was so humble, she was willing, probably, to be as stupid as he was?
Sure enough, Nangong asked, bowing his head and downing a large glass of wine, “I hesitated for a long time, torn for a long time, I was thinking about what I was going to do. What am I going to do to put a smile on her face; what am I going to do to put her back on her feet … I thought for a long time and there was only one answer.”
Wang Yuxin listened quietly.
“Even though, the answer to that is the last thing I want to know, I also know that there is nothing I can do about it, I couldn’t get into her heart in five years, and I won’t get into it in the future.”
“I know she still hates him, I know all that. But I also know that the reason she hates him so much happens to be because the person she loves most is him. What else would have made this hatred last for five years?”
“I arranged the place, then got Asher and told him she was up there and to go up. Then I left forlornly.”
“I don’t want to do this, I really don’t. But I really couldn’t help it, there was no way to watch her suffer so much and not be able to walk away from the abyss of her past …”
…
Cup after cup, as Nangong asked pouring, soon Nangong asked finished the bottle of wine, a pair of black eyes but not at all disheveled, but more glittering, like the most dazzling stars hanging in the night as dazzling.
“Nangong asked, you’re drunk!” Wang Yuxin also drank a lot of wine, trying to suppress the depression that kept coming out of her heart with wine, but found that it didn’t work at all, an unspeakable bitterness that spread from her heart, slowly spread to her mouth, and then to her face.
He was a fool, how could she not be?
Nangong asked, shaking his head, his gaze still glowing, “No, I’m more awake now than ever. I know that even if I were given another chance to choose, I would still do it. As long as she can be happy, I will be happy too.”
Yes, that’s love. If the other person can be happy, he can be happy.
Is that really the case?
“Yuxin, have you ever loved anyone?” Out of the blue, Nangong asked such a question.
Wang Yuxin was a bit at a loss, as if she was at a loss for words as if her hidden heart was poked through, how should she answer? She would tell him that she had fallen in love with a man for the first time, but this man was in love with another woman, who was also her good friend?
“Why did you suddenly think of asking this question?” Hurrying to look down and pretend to admire the brilliant colors of the light hitting the wine glass, Wang Yuxin’s heart almost jumped out. Could it be that he saw her affection for him?
Impossible, how could he notice her feelings when his heart was now on Mia’s?
“Nothing, I just casually asked, you are a good girl and deserve a better man …,” I don’t know if it was because of the alcohol, Nangong asked as his dark eyes began to turn misty and his voice grew lower and lower as he spoke.
Wang Yuxin lifted her head and looked sadly at the man who was gradually getting drunk in front of her, a long sigh flashed in her heart and she persuaded in a low voice, “Okay, Nangong asked, you’re drunk, let me send you back!”
She slowly walked to Nangong Man’s side and bent down to help him who had gradually become intoxicated, Wang Yuxin only felt her face was hot and hot, so she had to don’t look away from his handsome and charming face. However, just as she approached Nangong asked, she was pulled into Nangong’s arms.
Feeling herself suddenly fall into a warm embrace, Wang Yuxin’s heart was suddenly startled, and again when she felt Nangong Man’s warm breath and heavy manly scent, Wang Yuxin had panicked to the point of not knowing what to do, and stammered and spoke, “I, I, you, you …”
Under the hazy light, Wang Yuxin’s small white face flashed with red, adding a bit of charm and poise to her, her slightly drooping eyes, the non-stop opening and closing of her eyelashes, her slightly red cheeks, and her small mouth tightly pursed together, making people look at her with love and pity.
Perhaps because of the alcohol, Nangong asked surprisingly straightened his thinking at this moment, and by the time Wang Yuxin reacted, his lips were already covering her lips.
Feeling the warmth and softness on her lips, Wang Yuxin was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and without thinking, slapped her across the face without mercy, “Nangong Man, you, you’re too much!”
This slap completely woke up Nangong Man, who was already slightly drunk, and when he saw the small woman in his arms, his heart was shocked and he panicked and loosened his embrace, and Wang Yuxin was dropped to the ground before he was prepared for anything.
“Nangong asked, even if you don’t like me, you don’t have to make things so deliberately difficult for me, I …” Standing up and casually patting her body, Wang Yuxin couldn’t suppress the anger in her heart and loudly questioned the man who had just dropped her to the ground. However, just as the words left her mouth, she suddenly realized something and immediately shut her mouth, a small face rose red.
Nangong asked panicked and stood up, explaining in a panic, “Yuxin, I, I didn’t mean to, I just … ugh, I’m such an asshole, don’t take it to heart, I, I’m leaving …”
Without finishing a sentence, Nangong asked couldn’t stay any longer and hurriedly ran towards the entrance of the bar, leaving Wang Yuxin alone in the same place.
“He just now, actually kissed me?” Witnessing Nangong asked the staggering figure leave, Wang Yuxin stroked her hot cheek, still as if she was placed in a dream.
In fact, she wasn’t much angry just now, she just didn’t know how to face Nangong asked. She knew that the person he loved was not her, yet there was nothing she could do to change it, so she had to use this way to avoid letting herself fall into a situation where she didn’t know how to live with herself.
“Just now I hit him, he will never see me again, right?” Tilting her head up and looking fixedly at the door of the bar, Wang Yuxin’s heart was despondent, the bitterness in her heart gradually spreading to her mouth, bitter and unbearable.
