955 Every Page of My Life Is about You 5

The protective plastic sheets covering the furniture in the villa were all still fully intact. Outside of looking slightly out of style, the furnishings and decor all looked as good as when he had purchased it.

Wu Hao slowly strolled around the interior of the villa where he was familiar with every corner. Out of all the properties he had purchased over the past few years, this was the only one he had personally decorated. He always hired professionals to design and decorate his other properties, and he never asked about them. The only thing he did was pay the bills.

Wu Hao slowly made his way from the first to the second floor. The more he walked, the heavier his footsteps felt. On his way up to the third floor, he leaned against the wall pitifully and squatted on the stairs.

He really did love Nuannuan wholeheartedly, and it was precisely because of his true love for her that he wanted to achieve meteoric success in his career and give her a good life.

I started my business in the first place because of Nuannuan. But nothing in this society remains the same… When you try your best to convince your clients and it looks as though you are about to succeed soon, but someone richer and more powerful than you will easily take it all away with one statement… When you're running around outside and you get so thirsty that it feels like your throat will dry up, but you can't spare a penny from your business to buy a bottle of mineral water… And when everyone laughs at you because they think you're fantasizing about wanting to work together with them… All these things like will deeply change you.

It's not you who wants to change; it's this society that forces you to change. And once you do, many things will deviate from their original course, and some people will start to drift away from you slowly.

It's not that I haven't missed Nuannuan over these past years. It was precisely because I truly loved her that I didn't have the audacity to harass her.

I don't know what's wrong with me lately—perhaps it's because my career is so successful now and I can have anything I want—but I've started to miss her more than usual.

I think about this every day: What is the point of me earning so much money if I don't even have the person I love anymore? For whom am I earning all this money?

Now that his desire to get back together with Xu Wennuan surfaced so strongly, there was nothing Wu Hao could do to suppress it again. This was the case especially tonight; after having heard what Jiang Qianqian had said about Xu Wennuan and Lu Bancheng's entanglement, his desire started quickly and brazenly growing into intention.

But, is it really possible for us to get back together when things have already reached this stage between us?

He had once thought that he could continue living well without her, but now he realized that he was not as strong as he had thought he was.

When they had first broken up, he had seemed capable of parting without hard feelings, whereas she had been the one who could not come to terms with it. However, now that she had left everything behind, he was the one who was trapped inside and unable to get out.

I used to take her out whenever it snowed in Beijing. How did we possibly become separated from one another?

As Wu Hao pondered, he lifted his hand and covered his face.

…...

Wu Hao had felt that his body had not been normal lately, but he hadn't been able to pinpoint what might be wrong. He finally made the time to confer with his family doctor and have an exam done. When he received the results, he was shocked by what he saw on his blood test.

I never imagined that something so ridiculous would happen to me! I've never been infected with something like this before. How did it come about so suddenly?
