Chapter 1991 - 1785: Yes or No
Chapter 1991 - 1785: Yes or No
I always thought that everything we talked about would be easily realized, but gradually I understood that it was all unattainable. Your departure eventually became the deepest pain in my heart.
"Rest assured, I’m a man of my word. Once I say something, I won’t regret it. However, I also hope you remember every condition you agreed to today. If you ever go back on your word, I won’t hesitate to make our matters public.
Actually, you still haven’t figured out why I can threaten you like this, because from the beginning to the end, you never trusted me. If you had just a little more trust in me, if you said a few more nice words to me, if you gave me a glance more, I wouldn’t treat you this way. But now I have no choice but to treat you like this. The way you treated me has already hurt me, broken my heart. So why should I let you have a peaceful life now?
Trust between people is mutual. I used to trust you 100%, but you chose not to trust me. I’m asking if there is any point in us being friends like this? Since you no longer want to be close friends with me, I can only disrupt the balance of this relationship, leading us both down a path of no return. I just want you to know there’s no benefit in threatening me. When you should have threatened me, you didn’t, but you insisted on using the wrong method. In the past, no matter what, as long as you said a few words, I would soften. But not now, especially after knowing that you abandoned me for another man. I’ve made up my mind that I’ll never believe anything you say again. If you dare threaten me again, I will definitely not let you have an easy time. Now you’ve finally realized this, but I should also congratulate you, because all these outcomes are your own doing. You have to bear all the consequences you’ve sown."
"Yes, you’re right. Everything is just the result of my own actions. You reap what you sow. I shouldn’t have met you from the beginning. If I hadn’t started meeting you, there wouldn’t have been so many troublesome matters now. I truly regret why I so easily believed every word you said back then?
I don’t want to say anything now. I just want to tell you, even if I can never return to the past with my husband again in this lifetime, I will never be with someone like you. Being with you makes me feel suffocated because your heart isn’t love. I’m just another way for you to love yourself. In your eyes, maybe you think you love me, but ask yourself honestly, do you truly love me? Is hurting someone and making them live in pain for a lifetime the way to love them?
Chen Gang, people are flesh and blood. No one owes anyone. The world is so vast. Don’t you know there’s a saying: What you are destined to have will come eventually, and what is not yours will never be. How many beautiful people are out there, don’t become a fool trying to force something!
I don’t know if you’ll understand this sentence, but I still hope it can help you. Don’t persist in this stubbornness. It won’t benefit you at all. Let’s not have conflicting views on things, causing our once-best friendship to fall apart. I believe you know what to do.
You are a smart person, and you should know what actions would lead to the best outcome for us. You won’t do things that embarrass us both. However, I hope you also know that some things should or should not be done..."
"In my eyes, there’s no such thing as what should or shouldn’t be done, only whether one dares to do it. To me, I don’t care how you view me; I only want to hold you tightly in my arms, so tight you can never escape for the rest of your life. For me, I don’t care what you think of me. But do you know? What I fear most is seeing you cry in front of me. Your tears can break my heart. I can’t bear seeing the woman I love most cry her heart out before me, and I can’t comfort her. That feeling makes me feel like a failure."
"Don’t tell me all that nonsense. Don’t you think today’s outcome is just what you deserve, and you have to bear it yourself? You believed in me so much, and I used that against you. If you hadn’t trusted others so easily, how could things have ended up like this? All of this is entirely your fault. It’s your own making, enduring all this pain. You deserve to be kicked out by your husband. You deserve that no one chooses to trust you anymore, and you deserve to end up alone and lonely for the rest of your life!"
"Yes, indeed everything is just my own doing. It’s what I deserve. How can I blame others? Clearly, some things are destined to end a certain way, yet I foolishly chose to trust the one I shouldn’t have. I trusted him simply because I believed deep down that my best friend would never deceive me, that my best friend would do anything for me. But do you not know how it turned out in the end?
Rest assured, I will never threaten you again, because I dare not. You have leverage over me, and I can only comply. But I also hope you know not to hold onto this leverage too tightly, or one day we might both end up destroyed. When that day comes, do you think I’ll still care about these things? I’ve gone mad. I can’t care about this anymore or what consequences it might bring. I have stopped caring about everything. The only thing I care about is whether I can return to the man I love most, whether I can continue to have a happy and peaceful family..."
Chen Gang never expected that in the heart of the woman before him, his threats could be treated as nothing. She could not care about the leverage he holds over her. She only wants her family to be happy and healthy. Maybe he really did something wrong, but all of this was what the woman he loved most deserved to endure. If she hadn’t treated him like this, how could he have retaliated, causing her to lose her happiest family?
The human heart really can’t be compared. Everyone says to put yourself in someone else’s shoes, but when everyone does, they still end up hurting themselves.
And now, knowing that everything can’t be compared with the human heart, I still wonder if I should try using my heart to exchange for yours?
