Chapter 537: Chapter 537 I Want to Talk to Her

He held her in his arms, sighed, and laughed, "Xinlan, you’re right, I indeed am a heartless person."

"..." Why bring that up all of a sudden?

"I’ve always done as I pleased, never caring about others’ feelings, doing whatever I wanted, hurting whomever I fancied. Only now do I realize how atrocious my past actions were. I shouldn’t have got engaged to Du Ruoxin without loving her, let alone giving her too many illusions. I’ve hurt countless women, but I’ve come to understand I shouldn’t have hurt her. In truth, she’s a good girl, always gentle and obedient—I really shouldn’t have injured her."

Lin Xinlan’s eyes flickered slightly, and she asked hesitantly, "Then what do you want to do?"

"What else can I do but apologize to her? Hurting her was inevitable, and there’s nothing I can do about it."

He was just feeling a bit guilty, but this was by no means going to change his attitude towards Du Ruoxin.

He was just regretting his impetuous actions from the past.

"Xinlan, if life could start over, I would never get involved with any woman. I would wait for you, and never look at another woman again."

Lin Xinlan understood what he meant, and she understood his feelings at that moment.

If it had been her, she probably would have felt more guilty and self-reproachful.

"I want to see her and talk to her, do you think that’s okay?" she asked softly.

Rong Shaoze frowned slightly, firmly denying, "No! This is my fault, it has nothing do with you. Let me deal with it alone, you shouldn’t get involved in these matters."

"I know you’re afraid I’ll be wronged. But in love, there’s no absolute right or wrong. To some extent, I also share the responsibility. Let me talk to her properly, to see what she really thinks. It’s better than letting her brood alone, feeling sad and hurt. Besides, if I don’t talk to her, are you going to? If you do, the situation would probably get even worse."

He was someone with little patience and was quite direct when he spoke.

Probably with a few words, he could make Du Ruoxin feel like dying.

Unable to withstand Lin Xinlan’s persuasion, Rong Shaoze eventually nodded in agreement.

When Lin Xinlan arrived at the Yan Mountain villa, she saw a beautiful woman dressed in a white long-sleeved nightgown, curled up on the sofa, her face pale and her gaze dull, like a lifeless porcelain doll.

Her heart stuttered, feeling even more that she had wronged Du Ruoxin.

Approaching carefully, she sat down opposite her, looked at her, and smiled slightly, "Miss Du, hello, I’m Lin Xinlan."

Du Ruoxin snapped back to reality, her gaze coldly fixed on her.

Her hostility and rejection were obvious. Lin Xinlan pretended not to notice and continued smiling, "May I speak with you?"

There was no answer, just a look that became colder, mixed with hurt and disdain.

Lin Xinlan felt a bit uneasy.

She wouldn’t leap forward and attack her in a fight, would she?

"Talk about what?" Du Ruoxin sneered coldly, her sarcasm piercing, "Talk about how you met Shaoze, how he fell in love with you, and how blissful your married life is? If that’s what you’re here for, please leave; I don’t want to hear it!"

Old Gu, standing not far away, silently recited in his heart.

The Young Madam was the real mistress of this place, how could she have the nerve to ask the rightful owner to leave?

The one who should leave, was her...

Lin Xinlan was unconcerned about her attitude, she smiled slightly, "You’ve misunderstood, I’m not here to talk about that. Also, Rong Shaoze and I are not husband and wife."
