Jiang Shiyan's words were like a knife, stabbing into my heart.
In fact, he was right. My love for him had never received any return.
But...
I raised my hand to cover my face.
Lu Nancheng gently pulled me into his arms. Despite my pale complexion, I was determined to stay by his side.
Lu Nancheng leaned down and softly kissed my forehead, saying, "Be good, I can't bear to see you cry."
Jiang Shiyan stared fiercely at Lu Nancheng. "Lu Nancheng, I won't allow you to do this."
Lu Nancheng held me protectively and replied calmly, "I have a clear conscience."
He paused for a moment. "If I must say, then it is..."
He glanced at me and continued, "I shouldn't have backed down back then; I should have fought for Yuyu."
Jiang Shiyan's expression changed. "What do you mean?"
Lu Nancheng spoke firmly, "I've liked her for quite some time now."
Jiang Shiyan's eyes widened in disbelief. "You..."
"Jiang Shiyan, since you've already broken up with her, please don't disturb her life anymore."
Jiang Shiyan pointed at Lu Nancheng, gritting his teeth. "She is my girlfriend."
Lu Nancheng smiled slightly. "She is not."
"She has already broken up with you."
Jiang Shiyan stared fiercely at Lu Nancheng. "You are taking advantage of her vulnerability."
The smile on Lu Nancheng's face gradually faded. "Jiang Shiyan, the thing I regret the most is not taking her away back then."
"If I had taken her away, she wouldn't have had to suffer so much."
Jiang Shiyan laughed in anger. "Lu Nancheng, do you really think she would fall in love with you?"
"She won't."
"She loves me."
"You are just taking advantage of the situation."
Lu Nancheng's expression darkened. "You keep saying she loves you, but how have you treated her?"
Jiang Shiyan was momentarily speechless, frozen in place by Lu Nancheng's words.
Lu Nancheng fixed his gaze on Jiang Shiyan. "Where were you when she was sick?"
"When she was bullied, where were you?"
"When she was at her most helpless and desperate, where were you?"
Lu Nancheng sneered, "You are flirting with another woman."
Jiang Shiyan's lips turned pale, unable to speak.
Lu Nancheng grabbed my hand and turned to leave.
Jiang Shiyan shouted, "Stop!"
Lu Nancheng halted but did not turn back.
Jiang Shiyan looked at Lu Nancheng's back and said, "Lu Nancheng, you don't deserve her affection."
"You don't deserve it at all!"
Jiang Shiyan rushed towards Lu Nancheng and directly attacked him.
I was almost in tears, my eyes filled with anxiety: "Stop fighting, please don't fight."
The two were locked in a fierce struggle until the security arrived and managed to pull them apart.
Lu Nancheng's hair was a mess, and his clothes were torn and disheveled.
Jiang Shiyan wasn't much better off either.
Lu Nancheng gritted his teeth and said, "He started it first. I won't let him off today."
"Absolutely not."
I stomped my foot. "Lu Nancheng, shut up."
Lu Nancheng: "..."
I pleaded, "Please don't fight anymore. Can we talk things over?"
Lu Nancheng snorted coldly and turned his face away.
I looked at Jiang Shiyan. " manager Jiang, I'm sorry. I apologize on his behalf. What happened today was our fault. You can decide how to resolve this, and we will not refuse."
Jiang Shiyan pointed to the swollen corner of his mouth. "Look at what you've done to me."
I was taken aback for a moment, then said, "I'll call an ambulance for you, and I'll cover all the expenses. I'm really sorry."
Jiang Shiyan's expression instantly darkened.
What he wanted wasn't my apology or the medical expenses.
What he wanted was my concern.
