Chapter 634: Chapter 634: Without Ever Holding Her Hand, How Can You Talk About Letting Go? (2)_1

Qin Shujian stared absent-mindedly at Xia Chen’an helping Chen Wenwen wipe her mouth with a tissue.

She remembered back in high school, when she would occasionally get food on her face, and he would help her wipe her mouth too, not using a tissue but his finger. His touch was rough, causing a bit of discomfort toward the corners of her mouth. His reprimanding tone still ringing in her ears, "You’re grown up now, can’t you eat properly without making a mess?"

No matter how she looked at it, he wasn’t as gentle with her as he was now with Chen Wenwen...

Nevertheless, she had merely been a serving-girl to him back then. Who would be tender to a serving-girl?

Lost in her thoughts, Qin Shujian’s phone suddenly rang.

At that moment, the room fell silent, making her phone ring particularly noticeable.

All the people present were familiar with the ringtone, Su Ge’s latest hit song, which was so popular online that you could hear it eight times in ten short videos.

Qin Shujian glanced at the caller ID, probably business-related, she excused herself with a quick "Sorry," and left the room to take the call in a quieter place.

Just as Qin Shujian left, everyone in the room started chatting again.

"Su Ge, Qin’s ringtone is your song."

"It somehow feels very sweet."

"Yeah, Su Ge, wishing you and Qin a happy future together."

"..."

Listining to the casual chitchat, Xia Chen’an gripped his chopsticks tighter, unintentionally snapping them in half.

The broken chopsticks cut into his hand, causing blood to seep out.

"Darling..." Chen Wenwen, sitting beside Xia Chen’an, noticed the blood on his hand and worriedly began to speak but stops upon seeing Xia Chen’an’s sidelong glance.

Chen Wenwen immediately closed her mouth and gave Xia Chen’an a tissue.

Barely noticeable since they sat in a corner, no one else saw this scene.

After wiping away the blood, Xia Chen’an leaned back lazily on his chair, not bothering with his chopsticks or saying a word.

Qin Shujian returned to the room shortly after, sitting in her spot, she would chat with Su Ge occasionally, turning to Xia Wan’an at other times.

Just like people had been saying, Qin Shujian and Su Ge’s interactions were very sweet. Su Ge was caring toward her, and she was gentle with him. Together, they matched each other perfectly, a match made in heaven, as people online said.

Xia Chen’an watched her silently for a while, then turned his gaze toward the window.

If the person you’ve been infatuated with finally got a boyfriend, what would you do?

He told himself that if she ever truly had a boyfriend, he would let go... Does Su Ge count? If so, could he really let go?

As he thought about this, Xia Chen’an lowered his gaze and looked at his palm.

Let go? That phrase seemed like a mockery to him. He had never even held her hand, so what right did he have to let go?

...

Due to a schedule conflict, Su Ge left before the dinner ended.

Not long after he left, Xia Wan’an’s phone in his pocket rang.

After taking out his phone, Xia Wan’an looked at the caller ID, a string of unrecognizable numbers. Answering the call, he heard soft, muffled sobbing on the other end.
