âThen go.â
The old man urged them to get into the car. After they left, he got into another car with a smile and went back to the Feng familyâs residence.
The truth was that his chest did not ache. He did it on purpose to give the two of them a chance to be alone.
Well, the older the man, the wiser. The old man had won.
Feng Yunan would always give in because of his grandfatherâs heart disease.
Feng Yunan drove Qiao Ruoxi to her rented apartment.
There wasnât even a parking space in the dilapidated neighborhood. After she alighted from the car, he went to look for a parking space.
He gave her time to pack her things and asked her to call him when she was done.
Qiao Ruoxi unlocked her phone and said awkwardly, âBut, Mr. Feng, I donât have your number.â
âGive me your phone.â
Feng Yunan looked at her and took a deep breath. He reluctantly took her phone and saved his number.
Feng Yunan accidentally tapped the call log and saw that there were many missed calls. When he saw that the contact name of the number that called was âQin Xuming,â his handsome brows furrowed even tighter.
However, he did not say anything. After he saved his number in her phone, he quietly returned the phone to her.
The two of them went separate ways. Qiao Ruoxi walked into the estate and walked towards the building where her rented apartment was.

Just as she was about to go up the stairs, she suddenly heard a familiar voice behind her. âLittle Xi.â
Qiao Ruoxi stopped in her tracks as if she was struck by lightning. She slowly turned around and saw Qin Xuming standing a few meters behind her.
Was it because they hadnât seen each other for a long time? At first glance, she almost didnât dare to recognize him.
The manâs hair was messy and his chin was covered with stubble. His tie was also crooked on one side and he looked very haggard.
He was no longer the usual intellectual elite who was full of vigor.
Qin Xuming was in a bad mood. âLittle Xi, Iâm sorry. Iâm sorry. I know itâs all my fault. Iâve been calling you and sending you messages, but you havenât replied to me! I feel terrible! You want to break up with me, but I donât agree! Itâs all my fault. Please forgive me and give me another chance, okay?â
Qiao Ruoxi looked at the man in front of her coldly. She no longer had the same feeling in her heart as before. She only had an irreparable wound in her heart that was caused by him. âWhen you betrayed me, you should have considered that this day would come. Weâve already broken up. Donât come to me again.â
âNo, Little Xi. From the moment you asked to break up with me, my heart has been in a mess. I called you but you didnât answer. You didnât reply to my messages. I flew back to look for you immediately. I went to Yinzun and the people there said that you had resigned. I couldnât find any news about you everywhere, so I could only wait for you here. Little Xi, I lost because of the breakup. This is the first time Iâve lost a lawsuit in my life. I canât lose you again.â
At the end of his speech, Qin Xumingâs eyes turned red and he choked as he spoke.
Qiao Ruoxi knew that he was a competitive person. As long as it was a case he took over, he would never lose.
That was why he was given the title of the top barrister.
Whether he won or lost now had nothing to do with her.
âXuming, let me tell you the truth. I broke up with you not only because of you and your secretary, but also because⦠I donât love you anymore.â
âYouâre lying to me! Little Xi, youâre not a good liar.â
Qin Xuming continued, âTell me, what should I do so that you can come back to me and give me a chance? After all these years, Iâve always respected you, loved you, and waited patiently for you. As long as you give me a chance, Iâll listen to everything you say in the future. Iâve already fired my secretary. I can promise you that I wonât have anything to do with any other woman. Come back to me, okay?â
