When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase

Chapter 984: Love Is Sugar, Sweet to the Point of Sorrow (4)

Xie Xiaoran paused before looking at Su Weiyi: "Xiao Yi, it’s better to tear down ten temples than break one marriage. I’m not trying to persuade you to break up, but I feel that instead of both ending up hurt, it’s better to withdraw early. Time can heal everything, so that when you truly let go, you can still get along peacefully."

Su Weiyi remained silent and heard Xie Xiaoran continue: "Of course, if you can completely disregard what others say, if you can completely ignore whether others think your relationship is unethical, then you should certainly continue steadfastly. Spending a lifetime with someone isn’t hard, but it’s very hard to spend it with someone you love."

Su Weiyi lowered her eyes, and Xie Xiaoran’s two "completely disregard" shattered the bit of courage Su Weiyi had left.

Can she really?

Of course not!

Su Weiyi didn’t know what she should do, but at least she knew she needed to calm down. She was overwhelmed by love and truly didn’t care about anything for a while. Could it be the same for Sheng Yanxiao?

Even though he was mature beyond his years, he was still just a young man.

Their thoughts inevitably had the simplicity and recklessness limited by their age.

Perhaps Sheng Yanxiao thought that even if their parents were enraged and heartbroken upon learning of this, they could still persist. At worst, they could move out of the Sheng Family’s home and engage in a guerrilla war, enduring it out.

Let time resolve everything; after all, their parents weren’t completely unreasonable. Once time wore them down enough and dampened their enthusiasm, everything would be fine.

But is this really possible?

If their disappointed and sorrowful eyes truly appeared in front of her, Su Weiyi was sure she would live in constant unease for the rest of her life.

On Monday, during the break after the first class of the morning, Su Weiyi stood at the entrance of the counselor’s office. Her hands hung at her sides, clenched into fists, and she took a deep breath before knocking on the door: "May I come in?"

Su Weiyi’s identity was thoroughly revealed at Q University; now even the principal showed her respect.

When the counselor saw her enter, they quickly stood up: "Miss Su, please sit down, please sit down."

"Teacher, I’d like to sign up for an exchange program. Is it still possible?"

"Yes, yes, of course, it’s possible."

When the Sheng Family heiress made a request, whether possible or not, it had to be possible.

In S City, Sheng Yanxiao stood on the competition stage with several juniors and seniors. After a week of training and competing, their team successfully advanced to the finals.

For some reason, the always confident, sometimes arrogant Sheng Yanxiao, who never got nervous over such things, felt his heart skip a beat in the second before going on stage, and even a slight sweat emerged from his palms.

Looking at the people around him, they were all eager and focused, their expressions particularly serious and their lips tightly pressed together, obviously tense.

Sheng Yanxiao took a deep breath, internally mocking himself, thinking he must be affected by the atmosphere.

Seemingly everyone on the competition stage today was nervous, and even Professor Ye, who was accompanying them, seemed a bit tense at the moment.

Sheng Yanxiao exhaled a breath of frustration, trying to relax, but the more he did so, the heavier he felt, like a thick, heavy slab weighing on his chest, increasingly difficult to breathe.
