Chapter 164 Domineering CEO Comes Online
"Do you really know in your heart that you’ve ever truly loved me? Or did you only love that land deed in my hands? Stop pretending—we both know the truth." Lin Banxia was utterly fed up with this man. Why didn’t he just ascend to the heavens?
"That was then. I’ve already reflected on my actions. I admit, initially, I approached you with the intention of getting the pear garden’s deed. But after spending time with you, I realized you’re different from other girls: pure, kind, gentle. You are a rare good woman. It was my failure to cherish you—I almost made the biggest mistake. Banxia, give me another chance..."
Lin Banxia kept a cold expression on her face, covered her ears, and refused to listen. Not listening, not listening—like ignoring a fool reciting nonsense.
Huo Qinglin saw how utterly unmoved she was and had no choice but to give up his confession. He stood up, adopting a gentlemanly posture. "Banxia, take good care of yourself. Once you’ve recovered, we can find time to talk."
"There’s nothing to talk about between us. Just leave already." Lin Banxia’s eyes wandered to find a broom. She truly wanted to sweep him out the door.
Huo Qinglin stared at her face in a daze for a few seconds before turning away, reluctantly, with disappointment.
