But at that moment, Jiang Tang thought of An Qianxi. If he could do it, the thing he wanted to do most was to go back to the night he broke up with An Qianxi, chase after her luxury car without hesitation, and tell her.

—I don't think I'm that bad. I still want to be with you.

………………

Jiang Tang used Mu Yunyi's access card to enter the upper-class residential area. He finally slowed down and began to regulate his breathing.

You don’t necessarily need to be so elegant, but you definitely shouldn’t look disheveled.

Jiang Tang has always remained calm and composed.

But this time, his heart was pounding like a drum.

If his memory serves him right, this should be the first time he has ever experienced a feeling called "confession".

It turns out that being too popular in the past can lead a person to stay in their comfort zone for too long. Only when they actively step out do they realize that they have been putting on an act for too long.

As Jiang Tang passed by the villa of the two sisters, Mu Yuqing and Mu Yunyi, he looked up. If he could see the two sisters looking at the stars on the rooftop, his tension would probably be greatly reduced.

It's always like this: when you want to do something that is of great significance to you, seeing familiar people always gives you a sense of security.

But the two sisters probably weren't interested in stargazing today, so Jiang Tang didn't see them. Instead, the busty maid smiled at him from afar.

She only gave a polite smile, without any unusual emotions. However, with Jiang Tang around, her work was a little easier, as she didn't have to deal with Mu Yuqing, that spoiled young lady.

Therefore, the maid was really looking forward to Jiang Tang's arrival.

But today, Jiang Tang merely glanced at it before heading off in the predetermined direction.

During her routine cleaning afterwards, she told Mu Yuqing about Jiang Tang's appearance. The latter pondered for a moment and nodded, saying, "I understand."

At that time, Mu Yuqing was playing the role of a "tutor" and giving lessons to her younger sister.

Using the image-based memory method that Jiang Tang specially prepared for his younger sister, and with the authority of an older sister, Mu Yuqing achieved great results, and Mu Yunyi has already learned quite a few characters with trepidation.

“Brother Jiang Tang…” The latter also heard the maid’s words and couldn’t help but murmur.

Mu Yuqing narrowed her eyes, her expression unreadable. If there was anyone in this world she would allow to share "Jiangjiang" with her, it would most likely only be her younger sister.

"It's so late, and Jiang Jiang isn't here to see us... so it's just that woman left."

“But…” A complex light flickered in her eyes.

But what? Mu Yunyi wanted to know, but she didn't dare overstep her bounds as the younger sister.

She had no right to know anything that her older sister was unwilling to tell her.

But today was different. Mu Yuqing suddenly stood up in front of her sister and started running to her wardrobe to find pretty clothes and dresses. Although it had only been a day since they last met, she already missed her very much.

She had to present her best self to Jiang Tang.

At the same time, she showed no reservations about showing favoritism towards her younger sister.

"Yunyi, change into my clothes, let's go out."

"Eh……"

She didn't quite understand what her sister meant, but her body still obediently did as she was told.

Mu Yunyi never objected to changing clothes in front of her older sister. After all, the two had bathed together since they were little. In the huge bathtub, the older sister held her younger sister. Unexpectedly, Mu Yuqing was never the one who was bossy. Instead, she was the one who gently stroked her younger sister's long hair and helped her wash.

The two knew each other very well. As long as the older sister didn't get angry or upset, she would always be the best older sister in Mu Yunyi's eyes and heart.

But... my sister's anger is terrifying, it's suffocating.

Mu Yuqing had changed into her pure black backless dress early in the morning. Fortunately, the temperature on a summer night was not low, otherwise, given Mu Yuqing's aversion to the cold, she would have been shivering from the wind.

As for the younger sister, she was struggling with her soft white cotton stockings.

Just looking at it makes me feel tired.

"I'll do it." Mu Yuqing knelt down in front of the girl, who was also her sister, without saying a word.

The latter's cheeks flushed slightly, and her knees shyly came together.

"Thank you, sister..." She thanked her properly; she's a polite and well-mannered child.

Mu Yuqing smiled gently, holding her younger sister's tiny, ice cream-colored feet in her hands. Then she put on stockings, letting them cover and engulf the girl's slender, fair legs inch by inch.

"Is Yunyi wondering why we need to change clothes?"

“…Hmm.” Mu Yunyi nodded, because she could tell from her sister’s expression that her sister probably didn’t mind her asking the question.

Otherwise, she would shake her head.

"Because we want to show our best side and help a heartbroken and vulnerable man find comfort."

?081 But I just like you

Jiang Tang had imagined many scenarios: his reunion with An Qianxi, or an accidental encounter.

But I never imagined it would happen when I turned around and ran towards her.

Only then did I realize that she had already disappeared.

It turns out that not every turn will result in a glance back, just as you hoped.

Looking at the empty villa in front of him, he felt as if something in his heart was collapsing into ruins.

Not all sorrow can be expressed through shouting. Jiang Tang felt as if his blood had frozen. The sweat from running all the way was now completely cold, making him grit his teeth and tremble.

Clenching one's teeth seems to be a way of suppressing a surge of emotion.

Jiang Tang knew he had lost his composure, but fortunately no one saw it. In his panic, he tried to take out his phone, but accidentally dropped it and smashed it on the ground.

He picked it up again, only to see a blacked-out phone screen, and his heart skipped a beat.

But he could only pray that his cheap phone, which he had bought a few years ago, wouldn't make any unforgivable mistakes at a time like this.

Press the button to turn it on.

Fortunately... there was no failure, only a crack appeared on the phone screen, but this did not mean that Jiang Tang's despair had lessened in the slightest.

He quickly searched for An Qianxi's account among his friends, but found nothing... He came up empty-handed.

Although I had foreseen this outcome, when I actually saw it, my heart still ached with sadness and grief.

His tall figure, illuminated by the moonlight, suddenly appeared utterly dejected.

He knew why; he had been deleted from her friend list, and even their old chat history was gone. Only in moments like this would Jiang Tang feel an intense hatred for his habit of casually swiping away chat windows.

But he had another method: find her account number from his memory, add her as a friend, or simply initiate a call...

But when Jiang Tang searched for An Qianxi's account, he saw a gray and white profile picture, just like his pale heart at that moment.

She abandoned the account, as if she were abandoning all the little things they had shared, all the beautiful and sad memories.

That's good... She can be reborn.

It only left Jiang Tang still standing in the same place.

But he was still unwilling to give up and made one last attempt.

Jiang Tang initiated the call, quickly dialing the number that was equally familiar to him, without the slightest hesitation.

Perhaps his good memory is not the only reason for this.

Also, because he had hesitated several times before dialing the number, which had been ringing in his mind over and over again.

but……

"Sorry, the number you dialed is not in service... beep, beep, beep..."

A huge wave of bitterness instantly hit his eyes, but Jiang Tang refused to admit it.

He forced himself to look up at the bright moon in the night sky. If she was also bathed in the same moonlight, then this would be the last connection between the two of them.

From then on, we will never meet again before the mountain or after it.

He could no longer hear her voice, sweet and pure, even her coquettish scolding made him nostalgic.

He would never have the chance to buy her candied hawthorns again, to see her swallow the sour hawthorns with a face full of grievance, but she would feed him the sweet one...

As for how she knew it was sweet, it was because she took a bite and noticed the adorable gaps in the hawthorn berries.

He knew what he had missed... That day, she begged him to stay, as a last resort.

But why are you acting so high and mighty?

What am I even thinking?

We can't hold her back. Jiang Tang, you have no future, you can't hold her back!

But now that you have a future, An Qianxi is no longer waiting for you!

You imagine yourself to be righteous and awe-inspiring, but right now you're just a clown!

Emotions are selfish!

You clearly know this principle, at least that's how you treat Shixue!

But why did it have to be this way...?

A huge amount of emotion was stuck in his throat, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

"If crying it out will make you feel better, then cry. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

"Jiangjiang, even when you're vulnerable, I will cherish you."

Accompanying the light footsteps was the girl's calm voice, which rang out behind Jiang Tang.

Mu Yuqing was followed by her younger sister, Mu Yunyi, who clutched her chest as if sharing Jiang Tang's sorrow.

"when……"

Jiang Tang's voice became hoarse in a short period of time, and no one knew how hard he was trying to suppress his emotions.

“After you left my house yesterday, An Qianxi moved out.”

"But the decision to move to Anjia was made a long time ago, and I had heard about it before."

Even if Mu Yuqing didn't say it, Jiang Tang could understand the cruel truth.

"Jiang Jiang, you missed your last chance."

“She knows you are my tutor, she knows you come to my house every weekend to help me with my studies.”
