Super Sweet, 100\% Honeymoon-Chapter 603: The Truth of That Year (7)

Except for a name Susan, the identity of an exchange student from Hua Country, and a phone number that has been deregistered into an empty number...

Beyond that, he actually knew nothing.

Ling Chen’s eyes darkened as he instructed his subordinates, "Go investigate. I want her address in Hua Country!"

-

Hua Country.

After the argument over borrowing money, Susan and Xia Zhiyun hadn’t contacted each other again.

Susan’s father had already been sentenced, and the company went bankrupt.

She and her mother completed all the formalities, holding onto their last million assets not yet discovered by the court, preparing to flee to S Country to settle down.

Yes, she couldn’t possibly stay in Hua Country any longer.

The villa was about to be seized by the court, the car too was seized.

From a young lady of wealth, she turned into this pitiful state.

Susan always had a strong sense of vanity.

Like this, how could she face her friends again?

Moreover, if they didn’t escape, their last million would be forcibly taken.

Fleeing was the only choice.

That morning, Susan packed her luggage, intending to leave.

Little did she know, a tall man, dressed in a black trench coat, stood at the door.

Oh my God, it’s Ling!

Susan gazed foolishly at his well-defined face.

Ling Chen’s dark eyes fixed on Susan; after a moment, he finally spoke, "You are not her."

Her? Xia Zhiyun?

Susan felt a bit displeased in her heart.

"Where is she?!"

"You’re Mr. Ling, aren’t you?" Susan smiled sweetly, "I’m her friend. She asked me to tell you that she doesn’t want to see you. She wants a stable life, a life you simply can’t provide. Besides... she’s getting married, today."

Ling Chen’s cold, sharp gaze faltered for a moment.

Married?

Married...

She didn’t wait for him.

She chose to marry another man.

For so many years, Ling Chen was like a heartless assassin.

Yet at this moment, he tasted for the first time what it meant to hurt.

...

Ling Chen was led by Susan to Xia Zhiyun’s wedding venue.

From afar, Xia Zhiyun walked arm in arm with her father, step by step towards the man standing at the other end of the red carpet.

That man was not him.

Ling Chen’s breath caught, unable to control himself wanting to pull her into his arms, kiss her fiercely.

To question why she didn’t wait for him to return.

Susan’s gentle voice came through, "Mr. Ling, if you really like her, then don’t disturb her anymore. She’s very happy now."

The wedding had progressed to the exchange of wedding rings.

Ling Chen rubbed the jewelry box in his pocket.

Inside... was a ring he had specially commissioned.

A ring unique in the world.

A token of love he had made specifically for her.

Now, it was useless...

Ling Chen retreated step by step, feeling bewildered and lost.

He took the ring from his pocket, lifted his hand, and tossed it into the fountain pool.

Indeed.

When he left for the mission, hadn’t he already composed a message for her?

If she didn’t want to wait for him, then he would wish her happiness.

This situation was her choice.

Then, he hoped she could find happiness.

...

That notebook, Ling Chen never picked up to record again, nor did he ever touch it again.

The last sentence in the notebook remained on the day he completed the mission.

"Finally, I can see you, are you still waiting for me?"

"Isn’t it ridiculous? We haven’t known each other for long, yet you seem to have been living in my heart for many years."
