Chapter 261: Chapter 261: The Foolish Lover
To tell the truth, after hearing those words, Liu Zheng’s heart was indeed filled with an indescribable discomfort.
He had never imagined that such a thing had happened before.
It was unbearably painful, wasn’t it?
People like that, once they pass away, might leave a lifelong imprint in the hearts of those still living.
One has to admit, it’s really hard to change human fate.
Almost everyone has a different destiny, almost everyone has different experiences.
Elders often say that doing too many bad deeds may lead to a short life.
But many good people meet the same fate.
Looking at Liu Jiaxin’s face, which seemed to grow increasingly troubled, he didn’t lift his hand to rub her head, speaking gently instead.
"It’s okay, no matter what, he’s looking down on you from heaven, hoping you’ll be happy. Seeing you so blissful, he must be very content too, so don’t be too sad."
"And at least you once had all this happiness, you really went through it all. Some people don’t even get the chance to meet someone as wonderful."
When Liu Zheng had said his piece, the figure in front of him couldn’t help but nod repeatedly, understanding exactly what he meant.
How could this not be considered a good thing for her?
She was well aware that what she had once possessed was already very rare; many people, even if they hoped for a good partner, seemed unable to find one.
"But no matter what, thank you for being with me. Thank you for what you said to me, it really made me feel a lot better."
After Liu Jiaxin had spoken, Liu Zheng simply lifted his hand and waved lightly; to him, it wasn’t a big deal.
But to tell the truth, after hearing this story, he really had a lot of feelings about it; he had never imagined things would turn out this way.
In this day and age, relationships are nearly always rushed. Sometimes, people casually start a relationship with another.
Or they might just as casually break up or divorce.
Everyone’s attitude towards relationships may be different, but most seem rather careless.
No one ever thought there would be someone so faithfully devoted, someone who had even considered the contingencies so thoroughly, it’s really heartbreaking, a true example of a good man.
Not to mention Jia Xin, even if he were a woman, he might always remember him.
Who knew that while he was pondering these thoughts, suddenly Liu Jiaxin’s gaze fell upon him, and she started to speak with some hesitation.
"I... talking about these things, you don’t have any bad feelings, do you...?"
Seeing her hesitate so long before speaking, he had thought she was going to say something else; turns out it was just these words.
The person before him only smiled gently, shaking their head before speaking.
"How could that be possible? Although I do indeed envy your relationship a lot, I also know that it’s all over now, and I’m also happy for the beautiful relationship you had before. At least you didn’t meet a bad person."
That was truly what he felt in his heart.
Upon hearing his words, Liu Jiaxin really did feel very happy, believing Liu Zheng to be a very considerate and understanding person.
If it were someone else, they may not have been able to do this.
So Jia Xin felt very fortunate to have met Liu Zheng.
"Thank you."
Then she spoke up again with the same words.
But the person before her didn’t find anything he did to be a big deal at all.
He also felt that Liu Jiaxin was indeed a very special existence to him.
The way the two of them met was really not easy.
Not only that, but before this, there really had been some unexpected events.
Initially meeting and assuming they were merely hapless lovers, he hadn’t imagined that their relationship would develop into what it did.
If even fate had granted them such an opportunity, how could they not cherish it?
If they couldn’t look at photos, it wasn’t a big deal.
After this, he still had to treat Old Chen to a good meal.
The very reason Liu Jiaxin held Liu Zheng in such high regard.
Was also a very important one.
It was that Liu Zheng was different from many other people she had encountered; some approached her only to gain access to her resources, feigning kindness towards her.
But from the beginning, Liu Zheng knew nothing of her true identity or how much wealth she had. Still, he treated her so kindly, proving he was different from the others, and certainly, she would cherish him.
It was just at this time that Old Chen leisurely arrived.
He had thought Jia Xin had some task for him, but upon entering and seeing Liu Zheng once more, it seemed he finally understood what was happening.
Seeing Old Chen approach,
Liu Zheng also came up to him excitedly and said,
"Since you’re here, I’ll head out for that meal right away."
When he said those words, Old Chen looked incredulously towards Liu Jiaxin.
He had assumed Jia Xin had come to have dinner with him, to discuss some important matter, never expecting Liu Zheng to be present.
Then Liu Jiaxin just smiled slightly and said,
"He wants to properly thank you. He felt that merely talking wasn’t formal enough, so he thought of treating you to a meal. Let’s leave for that now."
After hearing this, Old Chen finally came around, but honestly, it wasn’t necessary for him; what he had done had been trivial.
Now that things had progressed to this point, if he continued to refuse, it might seem slightly inappropriate.
So quickly, he nodded gently and then left with them.
Once they reached their destination, the three of them entered a private room together.
Liu Zheng then passed the menu to the two of them.
"Take a look and order whatever you like, it’s on me today."
The two of them instantly responded with smiling nods.
