rooftop

Panting, he pushed open the ajar metal door, and as expected, the familiar tall figure was not far away.

Hearing the noise, Helan Lingyu turned around and glanced lightly. The wind on the rooftop was very strong, but he sat on the guardrail with his back to the roof without fear. He threw his coat casually on the railing next to him and opened two pills.

The buttoned white shirt made a soft sound in the wind. It was very charming, but also very...

It's dangerous up there! I swallowed the words I almost blurted out, adjusted my breathing, and stepped forward.

"Tell me, what do you want to see me for?" Before I could say anything, he suddenly jumped down from the railing and came to me. The short distance made me clearly smell the familiar fragrance of his body...

Wait a minute! Xia Zhiyan, don’t forget your original intention of coming here this time! Thinking of this, I took a step back and put a safe distance away from him before saying in a cold voice: "Master Helan is not someone who likes knowing consultants.

Human?"

My words didn't bring any other reaction to her, just a movement of her eyebrows, as if she was waiting for my next words.

Of course I couldn't beat around the bush with him: "You deliberately spread those photos, am I right?"

Yes, this is the reason why I came to him. You must know that besides me, the only people present at that time were Helan Ruijie, Kong Tong Mingcheng, and Helan Lingyu. Helan Ruijie, who didn't like me very much in the first place, was

The person who is least likely to spread the photos, Kong Tong Mingcheng has just been humiliated by me, and naturally he will not go back to do such stupid things. Then, there is only one person left, Helan Lingyu.

What I asked in a cold voice was that he raised his lips and smiled, neither confirming nor denying: "Aren't you curious when I discovered your identity?"

"Haha, what a joke, how could the little girl's poor acting skills be hidden from the discernment of your young master Helan?"

He suddenly grabbed my arm excitedly: "Tell me, why does it have to be like this between us?"

What has become? What do you want us to become?? Shake him off hard: "I don't understand what you are talking about! I just want to tell you this time, please respect me, and don't overestimate you.

Own!!"

"No matter what you do, Helan Lingyu, even if you die, I will never be with you!!!"

The metal roof door closed with a bang, and finally... it was finally over. I leaned against the door and slowly slid down. The tears I had been holding back for a long time finally broke out at this moment and wet my face.

My fragility is something that Helan Lingyu cannot see, just like I can't see Helan Lingyu who is still standing there on the other side of the door, with a bitter smile gradually appearing at the corner of his mouth.

Xia Zhiyan...oh no, she should be called Kongtong Zhiyan now. Why can you still be so stubborn and heart-wrenching now?

No one would know that as early as the day when Xia Zhiyan was drunk, he began to investigate her details. It has to be said that being too meticulous is sometimes not a good thing. He didn't know that when he learned her true identity

He was so shocked at that time, but it was only then that he finally understood that he, Helan Lingyu, was not the only unfortunate person in this world.

The tragedy of his parents' political marriage, his father's infidelity, and his mother's resentment that led to her illness and tragic death. The damn woman who killed her mother actually had the guts to marry into his Helan family! Helan Ruijie couldn't do anything to him because of her guilt, but at present it was just

He, who controls one-third of the Helan family's power, can't take that responsibility either.

What about the dead woman? He hated it so much! He thought he was the most pathetic person in the world, but at that moment he understood that he was wrong. From that moment on, he decided to protect her, this person who was strong to the core.

A stubborn girl—whether she is Xia Zhiyan or the second young lady of the Kongtong family.

Looking at the closed door for the last time, the corners of his stiff lips finally raised an almost invisible arc.
