“…You probably think that the one I like is Ji Ziming, but I realize now that the one I like is you!”

With that, Qiao Jingyun took a step forward and hugged Fu Mingxuan’s muscular waist from behind.

She leaned gently on his back, which could make one unable to bear pushing her away.

“I like you; I want to start—” A happy family with you and our child.

The man cut her off, though. “Sorry. I only like Pei Ge.”

He proceeded to pry her hands from his waist thereafter, leaving the bar and her line of sight.

She felt the sky become overcast when the man walked further and further away from her.

Pei Ge! Pei Ge! Pei Ge!

Why does everyone like her?! What’s so good about her?!

She bit down on her lower lip as she ran after Fu Mingxuan.

Because it was late at night, there were not many pedestrians on the road outside the bar.

“Is your answer still the same even after knowing that I gave birth to your child?!”

The man slightly paused in his steps when he heard her say that but did not stop because of it.

As she watched him walk away determinedly, her heart got colder.

“Our child is a pretty and obedient girl of five. Her brows look exactly like yours, and you don’t know how good she is! She’s like an angel…”

As she spoke, she felt choked.

“I admit that I’m not a good mother; she’s at an orphanage most of the time! She clearly has a home and parents, but she was born and raised at an orphanage! She can’t go home, nor can she be with her mother!”

Her pitiful words managed to stop him.

Even though he had never seen his adorable, obedient daughter, he felt his heart ache from her description of the child.

His heart ached for his daughter, for going through all that…

“I’ve realized my mistakes. I know that I shouldn’t have been stubbornly going after someone who is never meant for me. I know now! I know that I’ve made a lot of mistakes, but I just want to make it up to our daughter now, to take good care of her, and to give her a home…”

Taking a deep breath, she wiped the tears from her face.

“So, please, can you give us a chance?”

“…”

The air froze after she stopped talking.

He only opened his mouth to speak after a long while.

“I’ve already told you that the only person I like is Pei Ge. Don’t bring up your daughter anymore. The only mother of my future children will be her.”

With that, he disappeared from her sight without hesitation.

“Fu Mingxuan!”

However, no matter how loud she shouted, the person never stopped walking away.

Her expression turned cold once he completely disappeared from sight.

Her pitiful expression from earlier turned cold and gloomy.

“Pei Ge, Pei Ge… why do you always ruin my happiness?”

Why do you always take away the things that I want?

Just you wait! Even if it takes everything I have, I will make sure that you lose your true love! Every day, you will live in pain!
