Chapter 21: Let's Break Up!

  "Qinuo, I..." Yan Xiaoyu's inner struggle had been going on for a long time. She never had the courage to say this to Gong Qinuo. If it wasn't for Gong Qinuo taking the initiative to help her back then, perhaps her fate would have been rewritten. She couldn't forget Gong Qinuo's kindness to her, and even more so, she couldn't bring herself to say goodbye to Gong Qinuo.

  "Little rain~" Gōng Qí Nuó gently kissed her hair, "Do you know? To me, you are my whole world. No matter what happens, we mustn't be apart, okay?"

  "Qinuo, I'm sorry!" Gong Qinuo's passionate confession did not bring any sweetness to Yan Xiaoyu. Instead, every promise he made only added to her inner turmoil. She felt more and more guilty towards Gong Qinuo, and the sense of guilt grew stronger.

  She really didn't want to feel guilty about it anymore, so she mustered up the courage and finally spoke out, "Let's break up?!"

  Yan Xiaoyu's words completely destroyed Gong Qiniu's entire world, he couldn't believe his eyes as he stared at Yan Xiaoyu beside him, this girlfriend who had been with him for three whole years, yet was so unfamiliar to him at this moment.

  But he didn't want to believe it, and wasn't willing to believe it. After a long time, he squeezed out an awkward smile, "Xiaoyu, today isn't April Fool's Day, don't play such jokes on me, okay?"

  "Kino, I'm not kidding you!" After speaking her mind, Yan Xiaoyu felt relieved. "I really want to thank you for lending my dad 5 million yuan when he was in trouble that year. I truly appreciate it. Originally, I thought of repaying you with my body, but now I understand that feelings aren't things and can't be used as compensation. Kino, the 5 million yuan I owe you, I'll return to you as soon as possible!"

  "Xiao Yu, don't say that!" Kong Qi Nu's eyebrows were filled with endless sorrow. He was unwilling to let go of the emotions they had shared for three years and he couldn't bear it. "In my eyes, you have never been just an emotional exchange. I truly like you, I will not break up with you!"

  "Qinuo!" Yan Xiaoyu seemed to have expected Qinuo's response, she looked sincerely at his melancholic eyes, hoping he could understand. "I'm sorry, I know you're good to me, I know you truly love me, but the person I love is not you. I know you understand, the one I like is Yifan. In these three years of being with you, every day I've been thinking of Yifan, my dreams are all about him, do you know that?"

  Yan Xiaoyu's words completely devastated Gong Qiannuo, he painfully closed his eyes, after a long time, he slowly opened them again, "Xiaoyu, can you answer me, in the three years we've been together, have you ever truly liked me?"

  "Sorry, Qīnó!" Yan Xiaoyu didn't answer Gong Qinuo's question directly, but the answer had already been revealed.

  Gong Qi Nuo knew that Yan Xiao Yu had made up her mind to break up with him, he was very clear that today, no matter how hard he tried to persuade her, it was impossible to change Xiao Yu's heart, things had come to this point, so he might as well let go!

  Taking a deep breath, Gong Qi Nuo finally trembled and agreed to Yan Xiao Yu, "Xiao Yu, since this is your choice, I won't force it anymore. However, I want to tell you that I will always wait for you, until the day you change your mind. I hope you can be happy!"

  Gong Qi's magnanimity made Yan Xiaoyu feel extremely uncomfortable, as if a knife had cut away a piece of flesh from her heart, causing a sharp pain. In fact, she would rather have Gong Qi scold her severely or throw a tantrum, so that she wouldn't feel guilty.
