Chapter 727 -728: Courage (20)_1
Liang Chen’s heart was at ease – she was fine, proving she could still leave unscathed, that she still had a thread of life left.
Enduring the pain coursing through his body, Liang Chen stared into Jing Haohao’s eyes, telling her, “Haohao, there’s none.”
His sudden declaration shocked Jing Haohao. Following that, she heard Liang Chen’s words spoken slowly and naturally, “There is no engagement.”
He only uttered four words, simple and precise.
Yet Jing Haohao understood what was hidden behind these four words.
He was telling her the engagement ceremony didn’t exist.
Even at this time, he still found the opportunity to respond to the question she had asked before their accident. Jing Haohao nodded in confusion and reached out to grasp Liang Chen’s arm, asking, “What about you? How are you?”
“I’m fine,” Liang Chen said, putting on a calm expression despite his discomfort. He seemed as if he was genuinely unharmed but only he knew the truth. He took all the strength he had to raise his arm and gently touched her cheek, confessing, “Haohao, to be honest, I never wanted to get engaged from the very beginning.”
Jing Haohao looked stupefied momentarily, then slowly turned her attention towards Liang Chen’s eyes.
Under the dim twilight, the man’s eyes sparkled as if emitting light. His words were calm and measured, “What I did, it was because I wanted a past like you.”
At this point, Liang Chen paused his words slightly.
He felt a sudden urge to cough.
He could clearly taste the blood in his throat.
He was afraid that the woman in his arms would refuse to leave by herself once she knew about his severe injury, and the loss of blood from his wounded arm might cost her life as well.
Forcing down the blood in his throat, he managed to smile and speak, “Haohao, I’m really sorry for that day. I shouldn’t have said what I did.”
“What I said, it misled you. I know that no matter how much I try to explain, you won’t believe me.”
“So, I chose to explain it in this way.”
“Haohao, there’s no such thing as understanding someone else’s pain. Unless it happens to you, you can never understand its intensity.”
“So, Haohao, my engagement with Miss Su was to let you experience this pain for yourself.”
“Then, you will understand what bothers me isn’t your past, but my jealousy for your past.”
God knows how much strength it took him to say this much.
If he doesn’t say it now, perhaps he would never have the chance to.
“Haohao, I’m really jealous of Shen Liangnian. He had ten years of your past with him, accompanying you through your firsts, able to… have you give your all for him unreservedly.”
If it weren’t for overhearing her conversation with a classmate that night, Liang Chen would have really thought that Jing Haohao didn’t love him.
It was then that he realized, Jing Haohao lacked the courage.
A hint of sorrow invaded Liang Chen’s gaze as he said, “Haohao, do you know how much I envy the courage with which you loved him?”

“Envy to the point of becoming jealous, jealousy to the point of madness.”
Liang Chen’s lips were still curved in a smile. He gazed intently at her face, as if intending to etch her into his heart, “It’s terrible, isn’t it, Haohao? I promised I wouldn’t bother you again, but in the end, I couldn’t control myself.”
