Chapter 210 - Ruthless Rejection

Finally, Xiang Chen Xi stood in front of her, separated by a cart. Their gazes met, and they were speechless for a moment.

Xiang Chen Xi looked at the person in front of him whose eyes were filled with tears and felt his heart ache. She was so haggard! If he hadn't left her, wouldn't she have been much better? Xiang Chen Xi was extremely nervous, he did not know how Tao Chu Liang would treat him.

"Chu Liang..." Xiang Chen Xi called out to her softly, his voice hoarse to the point that even he was surprised.

Tao Chu Liang heard the familiar voice, and these two words finally defeated her last line of defense. Tao Chu Liang rushed over and threw himself into his embrace. She pounded his chest and shouted, "Why did you leave without a word? Why didn't you explain! Do you know how much I think about you every day? "

Tears gushed out like a dam that burst, wetting Xiang Chen Xi's white shirt. Xiang Chen Xi's heart pounded violently. He grabbed Tao Chu Liang's hand and kissed it, disregarding everything else. The candlelight flickered, the music lingered, and the two of them stood close together.

Tao Chu Liang opened his eyes. His face was a little blurry. She realized that he couldn't see his exquisite facial features as clearly as before! As if he was suddenly stung by something, the warmth in Tao Chu Liang's heart suddenly faded. She felt that he shouldn't be in this state right now.

"Why did you come back?" Tao Chu Liang lowered her head and no longer looked at him. This was because both their faces were slightly red from their momentary excitement.

Xiang Chen Xi's eyes flashed. Chu Liang did not reject him, did this mean that he still had a chance? He pointed to the cake in front of him and said, "Chu Liang, your birthday is coming up. When the time comes, there will be many people coming to celebrate with you, so I want to celebrate with you alone for your birthday in advance. I also want to give you a surprise. "

Tao Chu Liang was astonished. These days, he had lost interest in everything and he even forgot about his own birthday! In a few days, it would indeed be his birthday.

"Is that all?" Tao Chu Liang looked at him.

Hearing Tao Chu Liang's words, Xiang Chen Xi was a little confused for a moment, and anxiously replied: "Of course not! Chu Liang, do you know? I built this shop for you! I know, you have already merged Taur Group with them. However, I feel that your talent shouldn't be as simple as that. This brand called 'Only' was designed by me! "

"This is the first offline entity store. I've already prepared everything. Tomorrow, this company will go public! You deserve a brand of your own! "

Tao Chu Liang looked at all of these. He specially designed a jewelry brand for himself! Had he been doing this in secret for the past month?

"This is the best birthday present I can think of. Do you still like it?" Xiang Chen Xi stared at her without blinking.

Tao Chu Liang's heart was very warm. She finally smiled: "You're great, I really like you. Thank you for doing all this for me." She knew that these things must have cost him a lot of effort!

When Xiang Chen Xi saw Tao Chu Liang smile, he felt as if the whole world had lit up and he saw hope. Xiang Chen Xi held Tao Chu Liang's hand and brought her to stand in front of the beautiful birthday cake. There was a man and a woman on the cake, leaning against each other.

The words on the cake read: I'm sorry, I love you!

Tao Chu Liang's tears dripped down onto the cart. Xiang Chen Xi thought that she was too touched, he gently wiped away the tears on her face and gently said to her: "I'm going to be 25 years old soon, make a wish."

Tao Chu Liang turned his head to look at him, and laughed while crying: "Chen Xi, do you remember that time when you secretly sent people to create an artificial meteor shower for me. Do you know what I wished for at that time?"

"At that time, I had even thought that you were Lu Yu and you had forgotten everything about us. I am really curious, what kind of wish did you make?" Xiang Chen smiled faintly.

Tao Chu Liang said quietly: "My wish is to be with you!"

Xiang Chen Xi was stunned.

Tao Chu Liang clasped his hands together and closed his eyes. This time, her wish was: I wish you happiness!

Tao Chu Liang opened his eyes and extinguished the candle in front of him. The lights in the shop came on again.

Xiang Chen Xi picked up the knife that was used to cut the cake and slashed across the cake. Two rings buckled together.

A ring could actually be designed this way? Tao Chu Liang looked at these two exquisite rings and admired Xiang Chen Xi's creativity. However, she couldn't think of what Xiang Chen Xi wanted to do with this ring.

Xiang Chen Xi took the ring out and knelt down on one knee, then said emotionally: "Chu Liang, these two rings have your birthday engraved on them. The male ring has my birthday engraved on it, I hope that we can accompany each other for the rest of our lives!"

Tao Chu Liang listened quietly. At this moment, tears were truly disobedient. Why was he always able to do something that moved him to the point of wanting to cry?

"I want to ask you to marry me again! Chu Liang, do you still want me? " Xiang Chen Xi looked into her eyes.

Tao Chu Liang's tears gushed out. Why? Why did the heavens torture them time and time again? Why they just can't be together. Chen Xi, the current me is no longer the perfect me from before. I'm going to become a blind person! To become your burden!

As Tao Chu Liang was thinking about this, she suddenly wiped away the tears on his face and said word by word, "Chen Xi, I'm sorry. We can't go back! "

Xiang Chen Xi's smile froze on his face. He said mechanically: "Chu Liang, did I hear wrong? What did you just say? "

Tao Chu Liang tried his best to be heartless as she heartlessly repeated himself, "We can't go back."

We can't go back …. Xiang Chen Xi mumbled to himself, as if he could not understand what the words meant.

"Chu Liang, are you saying that you want to reject my proposal? You don't want to be with me anymore, do you? " Xiang Chen Xi almost couldn't believe what was happening at this moment.

"Yes, that's what I meant." Tao Chu Liang turned her head away from his heartbroken eyes.

Xiang Chen Xi only felt the blood in his entire body solidifying. He somewhat lost his cool, and said loudly: "Why aren't we able to return? Weren't they fine when we met just now? Chu Liang, you were clearly very happy when I returned. How could you not reject me kissing you earlier? Could it be that everything that just happened was fake? "

Xiang Chen Xi didn't understand, why did Chu Liang become like this the moment he mentioned marriage proposal?

Xiang Chen Xi's words stung Tao Chu Liang's heart. That's right, when I saw him just now, he threw himself into his embrace no matter what. That's because I really miss him, I really want to. Thus, he didn't think too much about it. But she couldn't agree to marriage.

"Chen Xi, it's just that I haven't seen you for a long time. "Now that you're back, let's hurry back to the group. The group needs you." Tao Chu Liang tried his best to speak calmly.

"Right now, there is nothing more important than our marriage! Chu Liang, I know you feel bad about Li Li. I can wait. I can wait until we both forget about it. But why can't you agree to my proposal? "

"Chen Xi! There was no 'why'! You've been gone so long that I've almost forgotten it. In short, let's not meet again. " Tao Chu Liang hardened his heart and said, and turned to leave.

Xiang Chen Xi stood in his original position, holding the two rings in his hand.

Tao Chu Liang walked out quickly. She was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would soften his heart. Qiao Qing Hao had been waiting outside the whole time. Seeing Tao Chu Liang's appearance, he suddenly had a bad feeling. Chu Liang seemed to have cried before. Could it be that she was not happy with Xiang Chen Xi's conversation with his?

"Qing Hao, I know that Chen Xi told you to trick me to come here. Now I'm going home. "Immediately, immediately!" Tao Chu Liang had already lost control of his emotions.

"Chu Liang!" Xiang Chen Xi chased after him. Seeing Qiao Qing Hao looking at him with a face full of concern, Xiang Chen Xi put his arm around Tao Chu Liang's shoulders.

In that moment, Xiang Chen Xi only felt that it was extremely dazzling. He said to Qiao Qing Hao without thinking, "Could it be that you took advantage of the time when I was not by Chu Liang's side to enter?"

Qiao Qing Hao didn't know what Chu Liang and Xiang Chen Xi had said, but Xiang Chen Xi's current attitude made him extremely angry. I am not as weak as you think I am. Even if I have used some tricks before, that is only the past! "

"Do you think I don't know? You have never given up on Chu Liang! " Xiang Chen Xi said without thinking.

"Chen Xi!" Tao Chu Liang suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head.

"Chu Liang!" Qiao Qing Hao supported her. He knew that Chu Liang had a headache again, he said angrily to Xiang Chen Xi: "Xiang Chen Xi! Do you know that Chu Liang she … "

"Qing Hao!" Tao Chu Liang immediately stopped him and said to Xiang Chen Xi weakly, "Chen Xi, no one is going to get involved between you and me. It's just that I'm really tired …"

When Xiang Chen Xi saw Tao Chu Liang's pale face, he was worried. Was Chu Liang sick? In fact, he was only angry words just now. Now that he heard Tao Chu Liang saying this, he felt that it was even more inappropriate. Xiang Chen Xi said: "Chu Liang, no matter what, tomorrow is the Olive Company's IPO. I do not want you to immediately agree to my proposal. As long as you still have me in your heart and are willing to give me another chance, you must come! "Okay?"

"I won't come." Tao Chu Liang turned and walked away with Qiao Qing Hao following behind her.

Xiang Chen Xi did not give up, he did not believe it, and shouted towards Tao Chu Liang's back: "I'll wait for you! "I'll wait until you come!"

Tao Chu Liang's back figure seemed to stiffen, but he still left without looking back.
