Chapter 232: Chapter 232: Is there a need to discuss Li Beijue?
Chi Enen paused for a moment; she knew they were getting married—she had even received the wedding invitation. Had Su Chengyan come here specifically to tell her this?
In line with the principle that less is more, she politely said, “Congratulations.”
Her congratulations, heard by Su Chengyan, undoubtedly felt like a sharp knife had been plunged into his chest! Pain showed in his eyes as he grasped Chi Enen’s wrist as if mustering all his strength, and looked into her eyes, “Enen, are you really congratulating me?”
“What else?” Chi Enen twisted her wrist and frowned, “Mr. Su, please let go.”
Su Chengyan’s grip on her wrist tightened a bit more, as if he were struggling to contain his emotions, “I am getting married, and the bride isn’t you…”
Chi Enen realized what he meant; if it had been before, she might have felt a little hurt. But now, she truly felt relieved.
The past was in the past.
She didn’t want to keep looking back.
Besides… seeing Su Chengyan, she couldn’t help but think of Gu Qianci.
Chi Enen tried to pry his hand off while saying, “Su Chengyan, we are a thing of the past. Since you’ve decided to get married, you should be responsible to the bride. That’s the basic duty of a man.”
The words ‘a thing of the past’ sounded particularly harsh to Su Chengyan; he pursed his thin lips and laughed self-deprecatingly, “So it turns out you really let go a long time ago, and the only person who couldn’t let go was me.”
He spoke desolately.
Chi Enen felt as if a stone was pressing on her chest, very oppressively.
She believed she had done nothing wrong to Su Chengyan five years ago, nor had she wronged that naive relationship! Why did both Gu Qianci and Su Chengyan have to speak to her with such a tone? As if she was the one who had let them down?
Chi Enen’s expression turned cold, and she emphasized again, “Mr. Su, please let go of me!”
Su Chengyan noticed the change in her expression, his bitterness intensified, and combined with some things he had investigated recently, it felt as if a fire was suppressed in his chest, ready to explode at any time. He didn’t let go, in fact, he gripped even tighter, not caring about the pain in Chi Enen’s wrist, and stated deliberately, “I just want to ask you one question, the last question. If back then I had discovered earlier that your Grandfather was sick and needed money, and 1 had helped you, would we still have broken up?”
If back then, Su Chengyan had helped her… Chi Enen recalled Baby Chi’s words, “Mr. Su, there are no ‘ifs’ in life. ‘If implies that it didn’t happen. And there’s no need to discuss what never happened.”
Su Chengyan’s face suddenly turned ashen!
He chuckled lowly, repeating Chi Enen’s words, “There are no ‘ifs’ in life… ‘If means there’s nothing to discuss…”
As he spoke, he suddenly yanked Chi Enen’s wrist and with a bang, pushed her against the wall!
The aggressive scent of male hormones overwhelmed her!
“What about Li Beijue? Is there any need to discuss him?”
Chi Enen suddenly looked up, meeting his eyes—
Su Chengyan felt pained by her guarded and cautious gaze; his handsome face tensed, and the veins on his forehead bulged, “Enen, 1 know you’re with Li Beijue.”
Chi Enen felt a surge of tumultuous emotions inside, uncertain why Su Chengyan was saying these things to her.
She steadied her mind, not answering, not questioning, waiting for his next words..
