"Yancheng, I love you. In order to love you properly, I've stopped touching the things that you hate and dislike! I've worked hard to work part-time and earn money to support myself. I want to let you know that I'm an independent woman who doesn't covet your wealth! But … my family isn't well-to-do. I came out into society before I finished my studies. Reality is cruel, and I can't find a decent job at all! Even so, I still fantasize about becoming more outstanding. Sometimes, I really wish that you were an ordinary man and didn't have such a good family background. At least, when I'm giving my heart to you, don't use such vicious thoughts to judge me! "
Meng Qingxue spoke from the bottom of her heart as tears streamed down her face.
Mu Yancheng's heart softened in the end.
However, he was puzzled. If she wasn't coveting his wealth, what exactly was so good about him that she was willing to pour her heart out for him?
Growing up in such a family, like everyone else, he was incomparably insecure. Therefore, he was unscrupulous in climbing up the social ladder.
This was because he understood that only power and wealth could give him a pitiful sense of security!
Meng Qingxue said, "Other than the basic daily expenses, I haven't used much of the money from the account you transferred to me! Of course, you don't have to worry about me being hypocritical and casting a long line to catch a big fish … You may think that I'm very greedy, but I'm not! I'm not … Please, don't say such hurtful words again. I just want to be with you. Is that wrong?! "
The last sentence was almost shouted out hysterically.
Mu Yancheng sucked in a deep breath of cold air and hugged her tightly.
"Qingxue, I'm sorry. Don't say anymore. I know …"
After a pause, he helped her to the sofa and sat down. After calming down, he casually picked up an apple from the table and peeled it for her while saying, "Actually, I came over tonight because I have something to tell you."
Meng Qingxue was heartbroken. As if a fishbone was stuck in her throat, she could not say a word and could only sob.
However, she heard him say lightly, "My family is planning to arrange a marriage for me. Second Uncle ordered me to cut ties with you cleanly and prepare to accept the marriage. I came here this time to break up with you! "
Hearing this, Meng Qingxue felt suffocated. She cried out in grief, but her tears flowed even more violently.
Mu Yancheng recounted his uncle's instructions to him and then changed the topic helplessly. "But … the truth is, I do have feelings for you. On the way here, I swore that I'd make a clean break with you this time. But when I came here and saw you … in the end, I was unable to bear it. "
…
Meng Qingxue's heart warmed at his words, and her face lit up like a radiant sunflower. Mu Yancheng's next words, however, plunged her into despair.
