Chapter 591: 592: Their Love, Dead and Gone
Xia Yangyang could not help but cry.
But she didn’t dare to sob loudly, just silently shedding tears.
Xia Yangyang couldn’t remember when she last cried.
Ever since Xia Ye’s arrival, she had felt as if she had put on a suit of armour.
No matter what, she could deal with it calmly.
Sometimes, she also felt fortunate.
She always thought that she has become the person she now wanted to be.
An untouchable supergirl.
But Xia Yangyang found out that Gu Qichen was her Achilles heel.
Just encountering him was enough to shatter her armour.
His light laughter as he was leaving is still in her mind.
Xia Yangyang knew that Gu Qichen had really given up.
Xia Yangyang felt that she should be glad.
Because it meant that she didn’t have to be frightened or hide anymore.
For so many years, she was afraid that Gu Qichen would find out about her.
Afraid of Gu Qichen finding out about Xia Ye’s existence.
He was always stubborn, especially when they had parted without farewell back then.
This belated farewell four years later made Xia Yangyang feel like she was back to the night when her father had died.
She felt like something important in the world had broken.
Later, Xia Yangyang thought long and hard about what had broken.
It was the attachment, the bond.
Well, it’s better this way.
When Gu Zhaohan returned, he only saw the blood on the ground, and Xia Yangyang’s shivering shoulders as she sobbed.
Gu Zhaohan understood.
Gu Qichen had visited.
But he knew better that Xia Yangyang must have given him an answer.
Because at the moment, Gu Qichen had already driven away.
Gu Zhaohan came to Xia Yangyang: “He’s gone, you can cry out if you want.”
Xia Yangyang really wanted to cry out loud, but she had suppressed her emotions for so long, it seemed like she didn’t know how to let go anymore.
Over these years, she had been continuously asking herself deep within her heart.
Regret?
She was so firm in her decision that she had no regrets.
Leaving back then was the right choice.
But now that aching pain was forcing her to admit.
That she regretted it every moment.
No matter what decision she had made back then, she would have regrets.
But now, four years had passed.
Nothing could be redone.
By Gu Qichen’s side, there was already a woman who shared his world.
He had given up his last bit of reluctance towards her.
Just as if a dying person had breathed his last breath,
The love between them was entirely dead.
“Gu Zhaohan, I want to leave.”
Xia Yangyang finally wiped away her tears with restraint.
“I’ll accompany you.”
“No need, I want to be alone.”
Xia Yangyang left alone.
She hailed a taxi, and finally cried out loud in the car.
The driver comforted her along the way, afraid that she might do something drastic.
In the end, Xia Yangyang went to Sinan Mansion.
The history of Sinan Mansion can be traced back to the 1920s. Located in the center of Beijing, it was one of the first mansion-worthy garden estates, showcasing last century’s classic French architecture. Illuminated by a number of nearby centuries-old buildings and famous residences, it has become a unique sight in the heart of Beijing.
Of course, every house here is astronomically expensive.
The reason Xia Yangyang came here was that Xia Ye was residing here.
Of course, Xia Yangyang could not enter.
But she had called Gao Huizhi in advance.
There was already a black Rolls-Royce parked at the entrance of the community.
In the car was Mr. Zheng, Gao Huizhi’s chauffeur.
Seeing Xia Yangyang, he quickly got out of the car and opened the door for her: “Miss Qi, please get in the car.”
