Seeing that An Ning had started to draw, Xu Wang stood up with a meaningful glance, preparing to leave An Ning a quiet and undisturbed environment.

After looking around the room, Xu Wang chose to enter the balcony. Upon entering, what entered his sight was a land of emeralds, the bright sunlight shining through the window screen onto the ground and flowers, the entire scene looked very pleasing to the eye. The small wooden coffee table and rattan chair were covered in it, making it look like a paradise.

A slight smile appeared on Xu Wang's lips as complicated emotions rose in his heart. An Ning was still the same. She liked planting flowers on the balcony. This habit of hers hadn't changed even now, even so many years ago.

Sitting down on the rattan chair, Xu Wang took a deep breath. He didn't know if it was due to psychological factors or the fact that the greenery had taken effect, but he felt that the air here had become much fresher.

He extended his slender fingers and his white fingertips emitted a jade-like luster under the sunlight as they gently brushed against the green leaves.

The round and light beads intersected with the pink crystal, and the exquisite patterns on the silver hollow ball showed the sculptor's exquisite skills. One could imagine how wonderful this chain would be if it was worn on An Ning's thin and pale wrist.

He was very familiar with this bracelet. When he was overseas, he had seen An Ning blankly staring at it while holding it in her hand more than once. Now, this bracelet was placed so that he could casually obtain it.

This was a gift from Jiang Xiushan to An Ning. When they left the Jiang family, An Ning had only taken it with her. This area had been home for so many years.

An Ning had never worn a bracelet on her body before, but the warm texture of the bead was enough for Xu Wang to understand how often An Ning had touched it. He thought back to Jiang Jia Han.

His eyes were lowered and his long eyelashes covered the expression in the depths of Xu Wei's eyes. He could only see the struggle and pain in his heart from his tightly pursed lips that did not have the slightest hint of blood.

He understood that even though An Ning had nothing to do with Jiang Jia Han on the surface and didn't want to develop any further, she had never let go of her feelings for him. She loved Jiang Jia Han, and even though she had suffered so many injuries, she hadn't erased the feelings in her heart.

He had clearly met An Ning first, but in the end, he had still lost. The corners of his mouth curled up, but Xu Wang's smile was filled with bitterness and helplessness.

He had persevered for so many years, but today, it was as if Xu Wang suddenly came to a complete realization. He had worked hard for so long but still hadn't been able to obtain An Ning's heart, what 'hard work always pays off', 'as long as you give it back one day she will be moved', those were all lies. Being moved didn't mean that you like it, yourself … It was time to let go.

"I hope so!"

An Ning's voice suddenly rang out in his ears. Xu Wang put down his bracelet as if he had just woken from a dream. He even stole a glance at it with a guilty conscience. After confirming that An Ning was in the living room and hadn't come over, he heaved a sigh of relief.

"Can you take a look at this style?"

An Ning handed the drawing paper over. Xu Wang sat down beside the sofa and raised her hand to receive it.

After clearly seeing the contents of the drawing, Xu Wang's eyes widened in shock. This was exactly what he wanted. Although it was only a rough outline and it hadn't been refined, this bold style perfectly fit his theme.

Looking at Xu Xin's expression, An Ning understood that her design had gone in the right direction. Furthermore, it seemed to have perfectly met the standard. She let out a light sigh of relief.

Returning the blueprint to An Ning, Xu Wang prepared to leave. Having just experienced such a blow, he couldn't pretend to be happy when facing such a quiet place. The frustration in his heart was like a flood that swallowed him up.

Xu Wang had even forgotten to pack up the design and take it with him. His appearance of leaving in such a hurry could even be said to be him fleeing in panic.

At night, when the lanterns were being lit, the charming neon lights flickered with light. In between the flashes of light and shadows, the entire world had a bizarre appearance. Xu Wang's car drove extremely quickly and smoothly through the traffic, like a black bolt of lightning.

The chilly night wind blew in through the open window, but the frustration in Xu Wang's heart had not been relieved in the slightest. After persisting for so many years, his love collapsed, and even Xu Wang, with his gentle personality and jade-like personality, appeared somewhat dry and gloomy.

The black lightning stopped at the most bustling bar in Lin City, 'Li Ye'. With a cold expression, Xu Wangyou casually sat down at the bar.

"Ice vodka!"

The bartender's movements were extremely quick. Not long later, a glass of amber liquid was pushed in front of Xu Wang. He didn't even pause for a moment.

Xu Wang signaled the bartender to fill the cup once more. Just like that, he continued drinking, as if he were trying to get drunk.

His white shirt was meticulously stuffed into his suit pants, wrapping around his skinny waist. His sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, revealing his slender wrists. The sleeves on his collar were undone, and one could faintly see his collarbone peeking out from within.

A boy like Xu Wang, who was a celibate faculty member, happened to look like the girl who came to the bar to have fun the most. However, no matter who it was, they would all be scared off by Xu Wang's cold expression as he drank his wine.

Another girl was defeated and left with a pout on her red lips. It was at this time that Anfey entered the room and saw a man who was exceptionally cold in the midst of a group of frivolous people.

"Eh? Why aren't you leaving? Go play! "

"We won't leave until we're drunk today! "Haha!"

Seeing that Anfey had suddenly stopped moving, a few of her friends couldn't help reaching out to push her away and urge her on.

An Fu did not have the time to wonder why Xu Wang was here, nor did she care about the reason why Xu Wang was here. Her heart surged with great secret joy, this was truly a favor from the heavens, she was just thinking about how to attract Xu Wang's hopes, she didn't expect him to come knocking on her door on his own accord.

"You guys go play, I have something to do!"

Anfey replied. She didn't even spare them a single glance as she ran over, staring at the figure.

Anfey's friends were confused. They looked in the direction that Anfey had left in and saw a male student from the abstinence department lying on the bar. They all started laughing and joking.

"Oh ~ I've found a target!"

Hearing the whistles and laughter coming from behind her, Anfey did not have the time to pay attention to them. In the blink of an eye, she had rushed to Xu Xin's side.
