After placing the dishes on the table, Tang Ching-ya straightened her back and placed her hands on her lap out of habit. "It's a new year. In the blink of an eye, Yan Cheng has been gone for six years."
Huo Yanqing swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "It's a new year and a new beginning. You should let go of Fourth Brother and think for yourself."
Tang Ching-ya turned to look at Huo Yanqing. "Have you let go?"
Huo Yanqing went silent for a few seconds. "I'm not like you. She's my family."
"But she's my lover." Tang Ching-ya's voice sounded a little hoarse. She paused for a moment to adjust her emotions. "If I ask you to let go of Xin 'er one day, will you be able to?"
"I will never let go of her!" Huo Yanqing replied quickly. His voice was deep and firm.
Tang Ching-ya felt a pang of pain in her heart. The corners of her mouth curved into a faint smile. She seemed to be mocking and sad at the same time. "If you can't let go, why should I?"
"Xin 'er is right in front of me. I can truly have her. But you're different. Fourth Brother has already left. No matter how much you can't let go, he won't come back to you."
Truly have her? Ha! What a beautiful word.
Tang Ching-ya looked at Huo Yanqing with tears in her eyes. When can I truly have you? "Can't you be more tactful?"
"I'm doing this for your own good. You shouldn't keep living in the past. I believe Fourth Brother will want you to be happy."
Happy?
Tang Ching-ya looked at Huo Yanqing and smiled. But the tears in her eyes flowed out. My happiness is yours. Are you willing to give it to me? "You're really similar to Yan Cheng. I feel very happy just looking at you."
Huo Yanqing had always known that the four brothers shared some resemblance between them.
Huo Yanqing put down his bowl and chopsticks and frowned. "I am me, and Fourth Brother is Fourth Brother. I only want Xin 'er for the rest of my life, and I will never be anyone's substitute."
After Huo Yanqing's eyes recovered, he could see that Tang Ching-ya occasionally looked at him differently. That kind of gaze belonged to Huo Xiang. Now that Huo Xiang was gone, she should not transfer that love to him.
He couldn't afford it, nor did he want it.
Tang Ching-ya's tears fell even harder. His words, "I only want Xin 'er for the rest of my life," was like a sharp sword that pierced straight into her heart. It was a heart-wrenching pain.
Tang Ching-ya covered her face with her hands and bowed slightly as she began to sob. You are not anyone's substitute. Yan Cheng has always been your substitute.
Huo Yanqing's gaze landed on the woman beside him, who was sobbing uncontrollably. He lifted his hand and wanted to pat her shoulder to comfort her. However, his hand paused in mid-air and he retracted it. He shouldn't be soft-hearted at a time like this. He should be firm with his words and cut her off.
Huo Yanqing averted his gaze and looked straight ahead. His deep and cold voice resounded in the study. "If you haven't gotten married for the past five years because you treat me as your fourth brother and as your psychological comfort, then let's not meet again from now on."
Tang Ching-ya lifted her head from her palms. The exquisite makeup on her face had long been smudged. Her usually pretty face looked extremely disheveled and even a little frightening. "You're so heartless!"
Huo Yanqing pursed his thin lips. "Go back. I need to get to work." With that, he stood up and walked towards his desk.
