Chapter 406: The Leaving Figure and the Desperate Cry
Jiang Ciyou saw Lu Jingchen's desperate expression, and her heart was pierced by thousands of needles at the same time. She knew how cruel her decision was to Lu Jingchen, like a sharp sword, ruthlessly cutting off the emotional bond between them that once seemed indestructible.
She tried hard to hold back the tears that were about to burst, and the tears rolled in her eyes, like a trapped torrent that could break through the dam at any time. She seemed to have used up all her strength to turn around, and every tiny movement was full of struggle and reluctance. Her feet seemed to be dragged by an invisible weight, and every step she took was extremely difficult.
At the moment she turned around, Lu Jingchen suddenly burst into a heart-wrenching cry: "Jiang Ciyou, you will regret it!" This voice seemed to come from the depths of his soul, full of pain, anger and despair. His voice echoed in the room, hitting the wall and also hitting Jiang Ciyou's heart.
Lu Jingchen's eyes were full of bloodshot, and the bloodshot was like red silk threads, showing his pain without reservation. He continued to shout loudly: "Do you think he will still love you like before? If you go back to him like this, you will only be hurt again!" His voice was a little hoarse because of excitement, and every word was like a heavy stone, hitting Jiang Ciyou hard.
Jiang Ciyou's body trembled slightly, like a fragile leaf trembling in the wind. Her steps instinctively paused, but her reason frantically pulled her in her mind, telling her that she couldn't turn back, otherwise all her efforts would be wasted. Her heart was struggling fiercely. Part of her wanted to throw herself into Lu Jingchen's arms regardless of everything and tell him how reluctant and helpless she was; while the other part of her was tightly bound by the memories of the past and the so-called responsibilities, unable to break free.
In the end, she still did not stop, but her steps became more flustered. She was like a child lost in the darkness, looking for a ray of light in panic, but afraid that there was a greater fear hidden behind the light. Her figure gradually became blurred in Lu Jingchen's sight, and with every step away, her heart seemed to be torn open a bigger hole.
She didn't dare to look back, because she knew that as long as she looked back at Lu Jingchen's desperate and affectionate eyes, she would never have the courage to leave this place full of their memories. Her mind kept emerging with bits and pieces of her time with Lu Jingchen. During those days on vacation at the beach, Lu Jingchen would always gently place a gentle kiss on her forehead when the first ray of sunlight shone into the room in the early morning, and then take her to the beach to watch the sunrise. They walked hand in hand on the beach, the fine sand under their feet was soft and warm, and the sea breeze gently brushed their faces, bringing the breath of the sea. When she was not paying attention, Lu Jingchen would suddenly take out a wild flower he had carefully picked from behind, put it in her hair, and then smile and say that she was the most beautiful woman in the world.
In high-end restaurants, Lu Jingchen always makes reservations in advance to ensure that they can have a quiet and romantic dining environment. He will gently pull out a chair for her, and then carefully place a napkin on her legs when she sits down. When the waiter brings the food, he always lets Jiang Ciyou taste it first, his eyes full of anticipation and pampering. He will use his slender and flexible fingers to elegantly cut the steak for her, and every cut seems to be cutting the delicate emotions between them, integrating love into every piece of steak.
There were also countless nights when they slept in each other's arms. When she had a nightmare, Lu Jingchen would hold her tightly in his arms and comfort her softly until she fell asleep again. His arms were like a safe haven. No matter how stormy the outside world was, as long as she was in his arms, Jiang Ciyou felt extremely safe.
However, now all this is going to be in the past. Her husband is back, the man who betrayed her on their wedding night. She doesn't know why she wants to go back to him, is it because of the love they once had? Or because of the so-called family responsibility? She only knows that she can't just throw away everything in the past, even if that past is full of pain and hurt.
Her tears kept flowing down, wetting her cheeks. She walked quickly along the corridor, the lights in the corridor became blurred in her tearful vision, just like her confused thoughts at the moment. She felt as if she had lost her direction, not knowing where her decision would take her. She only knew that she was moving away from Lu Jingchen, away from the man who truly loved and cared about her.
Her heart was torn between two completely different emotions: on one hand, she was deeply attached to and felt guilty about Lu Jingchen, and on the other hand, she had complex feelings towards her husband, including past love, present confusion, and uncertainty about the future. She felt as if she was standing at a crossroads, and no matter which path she chose, it was full of unknowns and dangers.
She continued walking in the corridor, and every step she took seemed to be stepping on her broken heart. She didn't know how long she had been walking, nor where she had walked to. She only knew that she had to leave this place, leave Lu Jingchen, and face the choice that she herself didn't know if it was the right one.
