Chapter 832
Along the way, Ye Xingguang rested her head on her hand, leaning against the car window, gazing at the scenery outside. As she watched, tears of grievance rolled down her cheeks. Ye Junqing was truly too cold-hearted.
Always because of a “past” he concocted in his own mind, he unreasonably fantasized about something between her and Li Yu. Now, he even wished her and Li Yu to have children soon. Couldn’t he understand her feelings for him?
“Your Highness, would you like some candy?”
Gui Baili pulled a piece of candy from his pocket and offered it to Ye Xingguang.
Ye Xingguang shook her head, feeling bitterness in her mouth. Eating candy couldn’t sweeten her heart.
Gui Baili said, “You should have one. Otherwise, everyone’s mood will fall because of you.”
What did that mean? Ye Xingguang looked up at Gui Baili.
Gui Baili reached out, pressing his hand against his chest: “Because of you, it hurts here. As a man, I don’t want to shed tears over you.”
Ye Xingguang realized that when her emotions fluctuated wildly, the Sacred Tree would sense it, and then the entire nation would feel her emotional turmoil.noveldrama
Already annoyed and now completely without privacy, Ye Xingguang grabbed the candy, unwrapped it, and stuffed the sweet treat into her mouth. But no matter how much she ate, she couldn’t feel happy. The sweeter her mouth, the more suffocated her heart felt.
After Ye Xingguang left, Li Yu had the two guards arranged by Gui Baili sent out, having them stand outside the hospital room.
At that moment, Chen Fengdu called to inquire about his injuries.
Li Yu said over the phone, “It’s nothing serious, just some stomach bleeding. A few days in the hospital and some rest should do the trick.”
Chen Fengdu felt relieved but scolded casually, “You two are both unfilial, no good at all! I ask you, do you want the position of heir? If you do, no amount of clan leader support for that unfilial Ye Junqing will matter. I hold the formula, and no matter how much support Ye Junqing gets, he won’t win his beauty!”
“I don’t want it. I only see her as a sister and won’t marry her. You should agree to Ye Junqing being the next heir. Why break up a couple in love? Don’t you feel like you’re doing wrong?”
With that, Li Yu hung up the phone.
This position of heir, he never really coveted, nor did he truly want to become the heir. It was merely a heart-wrenching game, which had now come to an end, and there was no need to play it further.
Because Li Yu understood very well that even if he became the heir and married her forcefully, he wouldn’t win her heart and would only earn her hatred.
To truly win her over, he could only let Ye Junqing disappoint her again and again, breaking her heart repeatedly until she couldn’t take it anymore. Then, he might have a chance to warm her heart.
No rush. What he needed was patience, to watch Ye Junqing repeatedly ruin himself, thoroughly breaking her heart of admiration.
Besides that, he had no other option, for no amount of scheming could compete with her heart, which was filled with love for Ye Junqing.
After turning off the light, a trace of defeat that no one could detect appeared on Li Yu’s face. In the darkness, he sneered, “Ye Junqing, I’ve never lost to you. From the beginning to the end, it’s always been her obsession with you that I’ve lost to. But no matter how deep the obsession, it can’t withstand disappointment over and over, right? If it truly can’t, then it only means you haven’t ruined yourself enough times!”
