Hearing Venus Mu’s question, Hao Nangong seemed to dodge her gaze, “Has anyone mentioned this to you?”
Venus snorted and her tone was cold, “Is it necessary? I just want an answer.”
“Venus, listen to me, things aren’t what you think.” Hao wanted to calm her down.
“So what do you want me to think? Hao, do you know how much it pained me when I found out about all this? I trusted you so much, but look at what have you done to me!”
Venus was somewhat agitated, her eyes filled with endless disappointment, which caused Hao’ s inside unease grew more and more.
Hao quickly came to her, forcing her to look into his eyes, showing his sincerity and determination, “Venus, believe me. I never wanted to hurt you. Maybe what I did before was a bit inappropriate, but that’s because I love you!”
Who the man was that night, Hao knew better than anyone else, but he was planning to never tell her.
Zihang Lu thought that the man that night was him, but Zihang didn’t know that he couldn’t even get there that night because he almost got into a traffic accident, but since they all thought it was him, he was going to just admit it.
Love her?
Venus sneered. How great the word love was and anyone said so to her. Zihang said he loved her, but he ended up sending her to another man’s bed.
Now Hao said he loved her, just as she had just learned that he was the one who had taken away her virginity, bringing her so much pain.
How selfish their love was.
“Hao, don’t say ‘love’. I don’t think I have the charm to make the honorable young master Nangong ‘love’ me. How can you love me? Why do you love me?”
Hao frowned, sensing that Venus wouldn’t so easily compromise this time, so he spoke, “There’s one thing that you probably don’t remember already. Three years ago, in a dark alleyway, you once saved my life.”
After hearing his words, Venus tried to recall what he had said, suddenly feeling that she remembered something about it. With astonishment, she asked, “It was you?”
Seeing that she remembered, Hao was very happy and cautiously nodded before speaking, “That’s right, because you left in a hurry, I didn’t disturb you, but over the years, I’ve always silently watched you.”
Venus’s look was mixed with coldness and there was no warmth in her smile and her tone became indifferent, “Hao, do you know? My life is a mess now and all my experiences have become meaningless, and your existence is like an oasis in the desert...”
Hearing her description, Hao frowned, but he didn’t stop her.
“Whenever I hurt, you always give me warmth, so I’m really grateful and happy to know you, but now you’re telling me that what I see is fake, and the reality is so bad!”
Every word Venus said seemed to exert all her strength. Her eyes became red and she was about to cry, making her unable to see Hao’ s face.
Hao felt nervous and he stepped forward to wipe away her tears, but was pushed away by her.
Hao looked pale and hurriedly explained, “Venus, I apologize to you for this. You can blame me, but please don’t ignore me!”
Venus looked determined and shook her head, speaking, “Hao, from now on, it’s better that we don’t contact each other and for this, I will never forgive you!”
