Chapter 1257: Wan

Luo Liru listened to Miss Jiao Wan'er's words, which carried alienation and reproach, and his heart darkened slightly.

His mouth was full of unspeakable bitterness, and it took him a long time to recover.

He said with a bitter smile:

"I have some words I want to say to junior sister."

Miss Jiao Wan'er's voice was obviously more urgent,

and it also carried a bit of shame and annoyance.

"What words? Can't you say them tomorrow?"

If it were before,

no matter what Miss Jiao Wan'er said, Luo Liru would choose to agree.

However, this was his last chance to speak his heart.

Otherwise, he probably wouldn't be able to summon the courage again.

Luo Liru took a deep breath

and said slowly:

"I have always liked junior sister."

His words were directed at the person inside the door, but his eyes were extremely unfocused.

Clearly, he was falling into memories.

Only in memories was it the most beautiful for him.

There was no Gu Hanyuan, and he was not a one-armed cripple.

Junior sister was still that simple young girl.

However, Miss Jiao Wan'er's merciless words pulled him back to reality.

Miss Jiao Wan'er said in a somewhat strange tone:

"I know, but I already have someone I like now."

Luo Liru didn't know if it was an illusion,

but there was a hint of impatience in Miss Jiao Wan'er's voice.

He was silent for a moment upon hearing this,

and sighed with a bitter smile:

"It's Young Master Gu, right?"

"Hmm."

Miss Jiao Wan'er's somewhat painful voice sounded,

which provoked Luo Liru's worried question.

"Junior sister, what's wrong with you?"

It was quiet inside the door for a moment.

Miss Jiao Wan'er suddenly said:

"Nothing, I accidentally bumped into the corner of the table just now."

She paused and said again:

"You don't need to worry about the matter between me and Young Master Gu."

Perhaps feeling the heartlessness in Miss Jiao Wan'er's words,

Luo Liru smiled bitterly twice

and said sourly:

"Junior sister, I know I'm no longer worthy of you. But I still hope to wish you happiness."

"Senior brother, rest assured... Young Master Gu treats me very well."

Miss Jiao Wan'er responded with a mysterious pause.

Seeing Miss Jiao Wan'er answer so decisively,

the last bit of thought in Luo Liru's heart was extinguished.

He said with a dim expression:

"It was me, this cripple, who did something unnecessary. I'm leaving, junior sister, you should rest."

After saying this, he didn't wait for Miss Jiao Wan'er to respond and left the place with staggering steps.

That lonely back was full of pain and melancholy.

Following Luo Liru's departure,

the vaguely audible sounds came to an abrupt end.

Suddenly, a playful voice sounded again.

"Wan'er, your senior brother wants you to rest. Should we stop here?"

Miss Jiao Wan'er in the room glared reproachfully at the man speaking in her ear.

It was Gu Hanyuan, the protagonist of today's banquet.

"Pah, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Miss Jiao Wan'er said with lingering fear and shame:

"You almost scared me to death just now. Couldn't you have waited until Senior Brother Luo left?"

Gu Hanyuan shrugged and teased:

"I don't know who was holding onto me tightly just now."

Miss Jiao Wan'er's face turned bright red upon hearing this.

With that pretty face, she said words that even she couldn't convince herself of.

She insisted stubbornly: ===== CHAPTER 1259 =====
