Just when her fingertips were about to unbuckle his belt and reach into his pants, Wu Hao suddenly lifted his hand after standing still all this while and grabbed her wrist. Jiang Qianqianâs throat was blocked from speaking, and then Wu Hao turned around and looked into her eyes. His expression was so calm that Jiang Qianqian was deeply fearful of him. She had initially planned to continue acting coy, but the words were still lodged in her throat.
Everything was silent while the snowflakes continued falling outside. After some time, Wu Hao blinked softly and spoke in a tone that was as smooth as silk. âJiang Qianqian, letâs end this.â
The end that he was referring to was not a breakup. Even though the two of them had been involved with each other for more than two years, and he had to admit that there was something between them, he had never acknowledged her as his girlfriend. Jiang Qianqian widened her eyes and stared incredulously at Wu Hao as though she could not believe what he had just said.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Wu Hao swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He did not evade her eyes but, instead, repeated everything he had just said as though he was trying to resolve his own determination. He enunciated every single word, and his tone sounded exceptionally strong. âFrom now on, letâs be done with this, completely.â
Very quickly, Jiang Qianqianâs eyes watered. âAh Hao, why are you being like this? Werenât you intending to marry me?â
âMarry you?â Wu Hao raised his eyebrows slightly like he had just heard something peculiar. After a moment, he asked, âWhen did I say that I wanted to marry you?â
âWerenât you planning to get married on February 14th? Iâm the only woman you have now. Who else could you plan to marry if not me? Weâre about to get married, and you...â As Jiang Qianqian spoke, tears started falling down her face.
âHeh...â At this, Wu Hao finally understood what was going on. He snickered and then lowered his head and stared into Jiang Qianqianâs eyes. His tone was somewhat cool when he said, âJiang Qianqian, are you stupid? When I first got together with you, didnât Nuannuan also have the impression that she was my only girl? And didnât I get involved with you anyway?â
Jiang Qianqian was completely stunned. After a long time, she said in a trembling voice, âWhat is that supposed to mean? Do you mean to say that you have other marriage prospects besides me?â
Wu Hao nodded without any signs of wanting to avoid this issue and arrogantly admitted to it. âYes, thatâs right. Iâm going to get married, but the person Iâm going to marry is not you.â
âOr rather, I can reply to you like this: When I got together with you two years ago, I never thought about marrying you. Two years later, and such a long time after my breakup with Xu Wennuan, I still have no intention of marrying you. So, Jiang Qianqian, do you understand now?â
Jiang Qianqian gazed at Wu Hao, thoroughly astonished. Her tears were falling even harder now, but Wu Hao released his grip on her as though he could not see her crying. He detoured around her body and took cold, cruel steps out of her apartment without turning back once.
......
Wu Hao drove aimlessly in the snow for a long time before finally stopping in front of a villa, the wedding house he had bought two years ago. He had not stepped inside since he had broken up with Xu Wennuan.
He sat in the car for a long time staring at the home in the snowstorm before he emerged and walked to the front door. He keyed in the passcode, pushed open the door, and walked inside.
