Chapter 338: Chapter 338: Chen Fan, I’m Sorry

After leaving the airport, Chen Fan inquired around and found out where Mu Mansion was located, then he hailed a taxi and rushed over.

Before long, the cab stopped not far from the entrance of Mu Mansion.

Chen Fan got out of the taxi and, looking at the imposing Mu Mansion, couldn’t help but feel emotional, "As expected of the Capital’s top clan, this is the core district of the Capital. The Mu Family’s estate must cover tens of thousands of square meters, just this mansion alone is probably worth a fortune."

However, Chen Fan’s own net worth had long since ceased to be comparable to what it once was. Including the Medicine Sect, he found it would be a simple matter to buy a large mansion in a location like this in the Capital.

Without any hesitation, Chen Fan swiftly walked towards the front gate of Mu Mansion.

At that moment, a black Maybach was parked in front of the Mu Mansion gates, with a suit-clad driver standing respectfully at the front of the car.

Then, a silhouette wearing an evening dress, radiating an elegant and detached temperament with unearthly beauty and every movement suggesting a transcendence above the ordinary, stepped out from Mu Mansion.

It was Su Qingyan!

Chen Fan’s eyes lit up with excitement at the sight of Su Qingyan, and he quickened his pace subconsciously.

It had been a year since their last parting, and since Mu Tianxiong had changed Su Qingyan’s mobile number, he had no way to contact her. His longing for Qingyan had reached its peak.

He now hated that he couldn’t rush up to her, envelop her tightly in his arms, and kiss her delicate lips roughly.

"Why is Qingyan dressed so formally today? Could it be that she knew in advance that I was coming, and she prepared especially for me?"

A smile curved up the corners of Chen Fan’s mouth, and he then called out loudly, "Qingyan!"

Su Qingyan, who was about to get into the car, stiffened upon hearing the voice.

"Is it an illusion?" Su Qingyan looked puzzled, and then she turned her head to look to the side. When she saw the figure she had been yearning for all year long, she froze completely.

Surprise, excitement, grievance, joy, pain—all these emotions surged in her heart, rendering her motionless as she stared at Chen Fan.

"He still came... he hasn’t given up on me..."

Previously, Mu Tianxiong had said that Chen Fan disappeared after the Martial Arts Conference, and since a year had now passed and he hadn’t come to the Capital, it was likely that he had realized the disparity between himself and the Mu Family and had completely given up.

Chen Fan indeed hadn’t come, and Su Qingyan thought he truly had given up.

But now, seeing Chen Fan appear before her, she realized that he had never given up.

How could the man she had her sights on give up so easily?

Joy swelled in her heart; she wanted to run quickly to Chen Fan, hold him tightly, kiss him deeply, become entwined with him, and vent out a year’s worth of longing.

However, just as she was about to act, the words Mu Tianxiong had said before echoed in her ears, "Even if Chen Fan really came, do you think he could grow strong enough in one year to make the Jiang Family fear him?"

The Jiang Family was a super clan with a master from the Divine Realm at its helm!

Even if Chen Fan were given ten years, let alone one, he might still not be capable of contending with the Jiang Family.

If he appeared in the Capital at this time, there was only one outcome waiting for him: death.

Su Qingyan’s heart suddenly cooled, and the complex emotions she wanted to vent were abruptly suppressed.

"I can’t get entangled with him any further. Once the Jiang Family finds out about my relationship with him, they will certainly try every means to eliminate him. My affection for him will only drag him into an abyss."

"I can’t let him spend the rest of his life in ruins because of me!"

After several emotional ups and downs, Su Qingyan gradually calmed down, her mind having already made the agonizing decision.

Chen Fan saw Su Qingyan standing still, thinking to himself that the silly girl was surely too overwhelmed by the surprise to know what to do, feeling extremely happy inside and probably waiting eagerly for him to come over and hold her.

He did not hesitate and walked towards Su Qingyan at the side of the road, reaching out to embrace her.

But he heard Su Qingyan suddenly shout coldly, "Stop right there!"

Chen Fan was stunned, stopping in his tracks and looking at Su Qingyan with confusion, asking, "Qingyan, haven’t we seen each other for a year, don’t you miss me?"

Su Qingyan said coldly, "Who do you think you are? Why should I miss you?"

Chen Fan’s expression froze, feeling as if a spike had been cruelly driven into his heart.

"Qingyan, what... what’s wrong? Didn’t we agree that I would come to the Capital to find you after a year?"

Su Qingyan pretended as if she had just remembered, saying, "Oh, you didn’t mention it, I almost forgot about that. Nevertheless, since you’ve come, I should express myself. Back in Jiang City, I was just caught up in the moment. I never intended to entrust my whole life to you; our past was nothing serious, just a bit of fun. I hope you don’t take it to heart."

"Furthermore, after coming to the Capital, I’ve realized how narrow-minded I was in the past and how foolish my thoughts were. In this past year, I’ve been exposed to many new things, met a plethora of new people, and found someone new that I like."

"Now, the one I like is Jiang Yunlei, the eldest son of the Jiang Family. You were just a minor episode in my life. I hope you recognize your place. Go back to Jiang City; the Capital isn’t for you."

Boom!

Chen Fan felt as if his world had collapsed, sharp spikes piercing into his heart, making it nearly impossible for him to breathe.

No matter what, he could not have expected that his eager arrival in the Capital would result in such a response.

"Qing... Qingyan, you’re joking with me, right? I’ve grown a lot this year, and now I have already..." Chen Fan’s voice trembled.

Su Qingyan cut him off directly, "How much you have grown this year is your own business; it has nothing to do with me. I’m telling you clearly now, the person I like is Jiang Yunlei, the eldest son of the Jiang Family, not you."

"You can think of me as fickle, call me a bitch, a slut, it doesn’t matter. In any case, it’s over between us. Now go back to your Jiang City!"

Chen Fan felt like a fishbone was stuck in his throat, an overwhelming sense of heartbreak causing his entire body to tremble violently.

"Qingyan..."

At this moment, Su Qingyan couldn’t bear to hear even a single word from Chen Fan; she was afraid that if he spoke, she would lose control and throw herself into his arms, sobbing uncontrollably.

In order to sever the connection between her and Chen Fan even further, she took off the Holy Heart Lotus hanging around her neck.

This was her favorite personal belonging.

She handed the Holy Heart Lotus over, "Take this back. From now on, I hope to never see you again."

Chen Fan’s face turned ashen as he lifted his trembling hands to receive it.

Su Qingyan clenched her teeth and before Chen Fan could reach it, she let go, allowing the Holy Heart Lotus to fall to the ground.

Then she resolutely turned around and got into the car.

Chen Fan did not notice that as Su Qingyan turned around, she was already in tears.

Chen Fan, I’m sorry...
