Chapter 65

In his past life, Ye Chu was a man of debauchery and indulgence, remaining calm and composed with many women. But at this moment, looking at the woman before him, his heart actually began to race. At this moment, he could feel an inexplicable sense of tension, and Ye Chu was very clear that this was a feeling left by another soul!

Su Rong lifted her head and saw Ye Chu looking at her levelly. In her mind, she recalled the scene of Ye Chu striking a blow against the leader of the Shaguo, the image of Ye Chu writing freely on a plaque, and the picture of Ye Chu with a carefree and charming smile.

Similarly, her mind also flashed with images of Ye Chu bullying and dominating, smashing and looting.

The two different scenes overlapped, making Su Rong somewhat dazed. In her memory, there were scenes she admired and liked, as well as scenes she detested.

When Su Rong was young, she had fantasies of her prince charming being both literate and martial, revered by all, and capable of saving the people from suffering. Of course, she knew it was a fantasy, but which woman doesn't have dreams?

Ye Chu had a back that made her heart race, and even now, she found his carefree and charming smile very warm. Sometimes when she thought of Ye Chu, she would blush.

From a notorious scoundrel to this point, it already made Su Rong very fond of him!

But this was still different from the prince in her fantasy. Her prince should be a hero, not so carefree and charming, and not someone full of infamy.

The prince in her memory should have the admiration of the world!

Ye Chu was far from that, even though the occasionally melancholic figure of this young man would also make her heart race. But ultimately, he was not her prince, unable to take her soaring to the heavens and embrace the light of the sun and moon.

"I'm sorry!"

Su Rong said in a low voice, giving Ye Chu one last look, then loosened her grip on the balcony, pulled back the curtains, and stepped into the hall.

The people in the hall were still discussing Ye Chu and Su Rong, but when they saw Su Rong step out, their voices abruptly stopped, and they stared in shock at Su Rong as she walked out and at Ye Chu standing there in a daze.

Ye Chu watched Su Rong pull back the curtains and walk out, and he couldn't help but exhale. It was as if something in his soul had been freed! Looking at Su Rong's graceful back, Ye Chu smiled, turned around, and continued to face the cold lake, his back appearing lonely and desolate to the onlookers.

Seeing this scene, the people exchanged glances. A group of young men and women seemed to understand something: "Su Rong rejected Ye Chu?"

This thought popped up, and everyone's gaze suddenly turned to Su Rong. Some women couldn't help but sigh, thinking that even the current Ye Chu, whom Su Rong didn't fancy, was a rare man. Who in this world could Su Rong fancy?

"Su Rong is indeed an unbreachable fortress, high and unreachable, a man cannot conquer!"

A group of men's hearts were thoroughly shattered. Chen Bowen, a man full of honor, had his wings clipped by her, and Ye Chu, a bad boy with a touch of melancholy and coolness, couldn't win over Su Rong either. In this world, there might be no man who could conquer her. Anyone who dared to have thoughts about her would be mercilessly crushed.

Su Rong, under the gaze of everyone, couldn't help but let her eyes fall on the back of the young man looking at the cold lake. She suddenly felt a surge of bitterness, but quickly suppressed this feeling.

Su Rong didn't know that in the future, she would often recall this day, the words "Do you hope so?" the shimmering waves of the cold lake, and most importantly, the lazy figure of the young man leaning on the balcony! In the future, she would sometimes fantasize about what her life would be like if she had chosen a different outcome that day. Would she still shed tears every time she recalled this scene?

...

When Ye Chu returned to the hall, Su Rong's gaze just happened to meet his. Ye Chu smiled at her, naturally not taking Su Rong's rejection to heart.

This was a result the previous soul had already foreseen. Telling Su Rong his feelings was something he had always wanted to do, but he lacked the courage. Now, Ye Chu had completed it on his behalf, which could be considered a way to make up for his previous regret. At this moment, Ye Chu felt a sense of liberation, as if his body had become lighter!

Seeing Ye Chu still so carefree and smiling at her, Su Rong felt relieved. However, her cheeks turned slightly red, and she quickly turned her head, not daring to meet Ye Chu's gaze, feeling a strange and indescribable taste in her heart.

Ye Chu walked to Liang Shan's side, patted his shoulder, and then turned his gaze to Su Rong, smiling, "Perhaps this is our last meeting. In a while, I will leave Yaocity. Today, I came specially to say goodbye to everyone."

"What?" A single word made the entire hall silent, with all eyes on Ye Chu.

A group of women also shifted their gaze to Su Rong, and some even showed signs of displeasure.

In the eyes of many, Ye Chu's decision to leave Yaocity was due to Su Rong's rejection, even Liang Shan thought so, as he hadn't heard about Ye Chu leaving Yaocity before.

"Su Rong has completely hurt Ye Chu!" Looking at the not very tall figure standing there, some women couldn't help but feel heartache.

After three years of transformation and return, facing countless curses, just to pursue his former crush, but all efforts were in vain, it was heart-wrenching to think about. Some even felt that Su Rong was too cruel.

"Then! Goodbye!" Ye Chu smiled at everyone, turned without stopping, and walked out of the door with Pang Shao.

It wasn't until Ye Chu walked out of the door and the door closed with a bang that everyone reacted. Looking at the empty door, they exchanged glances, and some young girls couldn't help but have red eyes.

Su Rong was also stunned, staring blankly at the direction of the door. Seeing Liang Shan rush out, she finally reacted and followed. But when she got outside, there was no sign of Ye Chu or Liang Shan.

"Is Ye Chu really gone?" A few young girls also rushed out, staring blankly at the empty alley, and exchanged glances.

Zhang Suer had always detested Ye Chu, but at this moment, her heart was inexplicably touched. Thinking of Ye Chu's lonely figure always looking at the cold lake, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

"Su Rong, go after him! Maybe Ye Chu is willing to stay!" Zhang Suer said, "The current Ye Chu is not the scoundrel he was three years ago."

"Yes, yes! Su Rong, can you really bear to reject him? If it were me, I would be willing to stay with him," a woman sighed, "But he came back for you."

"Su Rong! I think Ye Chu is pretty good, a bit melancholic, a bit handsome, both literate and martial, always a bit bad, and can be romantic and crazy, very attractive to girls. I really can't understand why you rejected him."

"..."

Looking at the empty alley, Su Rong felt a vague sense of annoyance. Surrounded by Zhang Suer and her group, she couldn't hear what they were saying, only nodding reflexively.
