Chapter 2331: Not in This Lifetime!
An Xuchen’s eyes reddened. His fists, which he placed on his lap, were tightly clenched. He was trying his best to suppress his emotions.
Seeing this, Yan Suni suddenly got a foreboding feeling. Her heart was loudly pounding.
She immediately rushed to explain herself, “I have nothing to do with that man. We were just coworkers, but his wife got jealous and slandered me, calling me his mistress.”
“Is that true?” An Xuchen said in a dark, low voice.
Yan Suni nodded. “Yes, it really is.”
“Well, if you want me to believe it, you have to marry me,” An Xuchen said. He had spent a lot of effort on Yan Suni, so he wasn’t willing to let her slip through his fingers like this.
He must now grab hold of her. Of anything, really, to ease the deep insecurity that he bore.
“Marry you?” Yan Suni’s voice was sharp and full of disbelief. “You know I’m not getting married. Not in this lifetime!”
Yan Suni didn’t want to get married at all, least of all to this An Xuchen, who had turned unrecognizable.
The past An Xuchen was a radiant man, but that radiance was brought upon him by his career. It had given him an air of confidence and a shining halo. The current An Xuchen, however, carried a strong air of despondency.
An Xuchen no longer appeared radiant. He always had a depressed atmosphere around him recently, and he also looked much older now.
Yan Suni didn’t want to entrust the rest of her life to such a person.
Even if she was going to get married, it should be when she wanted to
“You’re a woman. If you don’t get married, what will you do? You can’t do whatever you want just because you’re pretty. When you’re old and sickly, do you think there’ll still be anyone who wants you?” An Xuchen bitterly spat.
Yan Suni was so infuriated that her body trembled. How did she not see before that An Xuchen was actually such a scoundrel, who was capable of saying such words?
“I don’t want to marry you. Let’s break up!” Yan Suni was now sickened just by seeing An Xuchen’s face. How could she have not seen his true colors before?
An Xuchen’s eyes reddened again. “I knew it. You want to abandon me! Nice try, but you have to marry me. I won’t let you go!”
Yan Suni shook off An Xuchen’ grip on her arm and hurriedly ran out of the clothes shop.
An Xuchen tried to go after her but was stopped by the staff, who told him to pay for the clothes.
He hastily gave them the money and ran after her, but by then, Yan Suni had already gotten into a taxi and ran away.
An Xuchen clenched his fists tightly.
His new website wasn’t popular, and he also had no money to advertise it, so it couldn’t generate much revenue.
Simply put, An Xuchen’s business had failed. He had invested a lot of money without gaining anything.
Seeing all the expenditures and the nonexistent return every day was too much torture for him, so An Xuchen finally threw in the towel and closed his website.
He fired the few employees he had. They were all technicians, so it was easy for them to find better jobs.
An Xuchen also sold his server as if it were worthless junk. He now no longer knew what the direction of his life would be.
He didn’t even know what he was supposed to do now.
When the payment for the loan he mortgaged his house for was finally due, he didn’t have the money to pay it, so the house was seized by the bank for the time being.
An Xuchen didn’t even have a place to stay in the city, so he simply carried his things and went to stay at Yan Suni’s house.
The current An Xuchen no longer cared for anything and simply stayed at Yan Suni’s house as if it were his own.
His crashing at her house truly made Yan Suni want to fall apart.
Meanwhile, Ning Shu no longer even cared about these two. She was now abroad for her further studies program.
Before she left the country, Ning Shu had also made a trip back home to see Xue Jing’s parents and gave the old couple some money. She told them to spend it freely and not to save it.
However, when Ning Shu was heading out, Xue Jing’s mother stuffed the money back into Ning Shu’s pocket.
She said that since Ning Shu was going to live in a foreign country for a while, surely she’d find it more convenient to have a little bit more money on her.
Ning Shu smiled, hugged her tearful mother, and walked away with her suitcase.
