Once Upon A One Night Stand

"It doesn't matter whether you mean that or not, because you've done so." Shu Tian never thought that one day she would be so resistant to Li Han that she didn't want to hear his voice.

He had caused her so much pain that he almost lost her love. She did not know how long she could hold on.

Li Han didn't want to argue with her and knew that neither of them was in a stable mood. After calming down, he said, "Go downstairs and eat first. You are having a low fever. The doctor said you can't have medicine on an empty stomach."

Shu Tian took a deep breath. "I want to go home."

She wanted to go home where Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei lived.

Li Han frowned and was worried about her. "How can you go home like this?"

"Take a cab." Shu Tian didn't want to say a word more and was impatient.

"Shu Tian." He said in a low and deep voice and refrained his anger. "Stay here tonight. I'll drive you home tomorrow morning."

Both of them were enduring each other. Shu Tian felt funny when hearing his words and did not know what Li Han was insistent on. They have had such a terrible quarrel. What couldn't he give up? Could it be that he really loved her?

Shu Tian could not accept his love when there was Jiang Chujing.

"You said you wanted to talk." Shu Tian turned around and looked at him.

Li Han's eyes darkened. "Yes."

"Okay, I'll talk to you." Shu Tian walked straight to the study regardless of his reaction. Together with her thin back, it was her indifferent voice, "Come with me."

Li Han frowned and felt uneasy thinking of what she might say later.

However, he could not stop it. Sooner or later, this negotiation would come. The longer it took, the more she would hate him.

Li Han lowered his eyes. After standing there for a long time, he walked over steadily and imperceptibly anxiously.

...

The window of the study was open. A gust of wind brought the cold of late winter, blowing up the dark gray gauze curtain. Simply looking around, Shu Tian bordered on crying.

It was not that she was sentimental, but that they had too many memories here, and now, it seemed that they were going to say goodbye.

Not long after, a methodical sound of footsteps came from behind her. She knew it was him.

Shu Tian blinked faster and faster to prevent the tears from falling, not wanting to lose her composure.

The door closed with a click. Just now, she felt that it was too cold to open the window, but now she was glad that there was a window or she would be out of breath.

Li Han walked to the swivel chair behind the desk and sat down, as he had done countless times when he was alone. He calmly said. "Go ahead."

Shu Tian soon returned to calm. She thought for a moment, trying to sort out what she wanted to say, but her mind was a mess. Unable to articulate, she could only say what came to her mind. "Li Han, it's been more than half a year since we met. It wasn't an impulse that I handed in my resignation to the company today. I had thought about it over and over again for nearly one month. I am serious."

They just had a great time, but now they were like strangers on the verge of parting. Li Han narrowed his eyes a little and let her continue.

"For the past six months, I have been sincere to you, and so have you. I know, and I can feel it, but Jiang Chujing made me understand that love is not enough. There are too many difficulties between us that we can't overcome, which made me depressed. Such as your family's prejudice against me and your responsibility for Jiang Chujing. I thought I could stand it, but I found myself not as strong as I thought." At this point, she laughed self-deprecatingly. The scene of that day's confrontation with Jiang Chujing at the door flashed past her mind. "The moment my father fell, I hated you."

Hate.

The word sounded frightening.

Li Han looked at those familiar eyes. Her eyes were no longer clear, but burning with anger. She looked back and said slowly stressing each syllable, "I hate Jiang Chujing, and I hate you."

She hated everything that caused Shu Changlei's illness. She hated Li Han's distrust and his hindsight.

Her grievance and forbearance were nothing, but she loved her family. She could not stand anyone doing anything to hurt her family.

Li Han just looked at her and listened to his beloved woman say that she hated him. No one knew what he was thinking. He was in a mess and felt heartbroken.

"I know you hate me." He opened the drawer to get the cigarette. Remembering her fever, he withdrew his hand and tapped the table with his fingers. "I was wrong with this. I promise I won't do it again. It was unexpected that Chujing came back that day. Li Wei didn't report it. I've fired him. You know what happened later. When I arrived, it was too late and I felt guilty. she fell into the water and her life was in danger. I can't delay it and I didn't mean to ignore you. It's chilling for you to do so."

Shu Tian admitted that she pushed Jiang Chujing into the water, so Li Han somehow had a problem with her.

No one would know if she didn't explain, so Li Han's misunderstanding was reasonable.

Obviously an explanation would clear up the misunderstanding, why didn't she say so?

Because apart from the truth, Shu Tian cared more about his attitude and wanted to see whether Li Han would believe her without any basis.

As it turned out, he wouldn't.

She thought there was no need to explain and it was more heartbreaking to say more.

Shu Tian tried to look rational and cool. "Now that this had happened, I can't pretend that nothing happened, and I can't be in the same room with Jiang Chujing. Let's break up. No woman can accept it. My parents are right and I was the one who didn't recognize the reality in the past."

Now she thought about what had happened before, she felt ridiculous.

"I can promise you anything but to leave."

"Does that include letting Jiang Chujing leave J City?"
