Husband You're So Bad Prolgue 3

Tonight, Ouyang Jun watched someone else propose her. How could he remain so calm? She couldn't understand what was in his heart; she can sense his feelings for her, yet why was he so scared to admit to it?

“Xiao Meng, you are no longer a child, you should take responsibility for the decisions you make.” She had accepted the marriage proposal, so she should forget her past feelings.

Moreover, the Gu family was not one they could afford to provoke. They could only move forward from that point on; there was no going back.

“That's not what I want.” Lin Meng's face revealed endless grief.

How could she have known that Gu Yubai would propose tonight?

Her relations.h.i.+p with Gu Yubai was accidental. She never liked him. She never thought about spending her life with him. She had waited for an opportunity to explain to him that it was a big misunderstanding, but hadn't expected the situation to grow worse as time pa.s.sed.

She panicked when Gu Yubai proposed marriage. She could not continue this way.

'I can not let this misunderstanding grow bigger.'

“Don't make trouble. We are going home, it's already late.” Ouyang Jun finally broke the silence after a long time.

Lin Meng's eyes were fixed on him. She wished to reveal the restlessness hidden under his carefully crafted disguise, but he hid his emotions well.

She bowed her head, closed her eyes, and counted to ten in her heart.

Leaving her grief, she took a step away and started walking towards the car.

'Forget it, why force him?'

He was uncomfortable, she felt bitter looking at him.

Ouyang Jun breathed out a long sigh of relief, but his heart was heavy. He tried to convince himself that he had done the right thing. Gu Yubai was his best friend. Xiao Meng was his family. He should bless them if they get together.

When they reached home, Lin Meng got down from the car and left without a backward glance. She remained silent the whole ride, and now she chose to ignore his existence.

Ouyang Jun got out of the car and hugged her from behind.

His powerful arms wrapped around her waist. He was reluctant to let go.

Last time! This is the last time.

Lin Meng stood still, but tears welled in her eyes despite her efforts. She didn't know what he meant by that gesture.

He had always suppressed his emotions and stood by impa.s.sively.

“Xiao Meng, let's stay where we are. We can't just think about ourselves. We can't hurt our loved ones. Gu Yubai… he is a good man. Worthy of spending his life with you."

When he was done speaking, he let go of her, and he left without turning back.

Let everything stay just how it is; don't change.

They can't afford to acknowledge the change in their relations.h.i.+p.

Lin Meng looked at his back as he disappeared from her sight. She lost the courage to catch up.

Gu Yubai is a good man. He is really good to me, but I can't be with him. I can't hurt others? Then what about me? This ambiguous relations.h.i.+p between us demands only my sacrifice.

Lin Meng does not want to marry Gu Yubai, she doesn't love him. She can't imagine spending the rest of her life with someone whom she has no feelings for.

It turned out that professing her love had been a mistake, an irreversible and irreparable mistake. She should have buried it at the bottom of her heart.

Confessing could only push them further apart from one another…
