Chapter 1119

Du Haiqing truly loved Ye Brother Changying deeply.

Unlike Ye Chen's mother, whom Ye Brother Changying met while studying abroad, Du Haiqing had truly grown up with Ye Brother Changying as childhood sweethearts.

Both were children of prominent families in Yanjing, and they had attended the same schools since they were young.

They attended the best kindergartens, the best elementary schools, and the best middle and high schools in Yanjing.

Therefore, in quite a few graduation photos, one could find the faces of Du Haiqing and Ye Brother Changying from different periods.

Ye Brother Changying had been outstanding since he was a child, and Du Haiqing felt a special fondness for playing with him as early as elementary school.

By middle school, Du Haiqing realized that she had fallen in love with Ye Brother Changying.

From that time on, her feelings for Ye Brother Changying never changed, and she never hid her admiration for him.

When Ye Brother Changying was running on the sports field, she would always be on the sidelines cheering for him;

When Ye Brother Changying was on stage playing the guitar and singing, she would always be in the audience clapping and cheering;

So, very quickly, everyone among the prominent families in Yanjing knew that Du Haiqing liked Ye Brother Changying.

Coincidentally, the Du family and the Ye family had always been on very good terms.

The old master of the Du family and the old master of the Ye family were sworn brothers!

Back then, when the elders of both families discovered that Du Haiqing liked Ye Brother Changying, they were almost overjoyed!

The parents of both families were all trying their best to bring the two together.

Du Haiqing was even more impatient to marry Ye Brother Changying and become his wife.

But Ye Brother Changying alone refused to agree, no matter what.

He said that he had always treated Du Haiqing as his own younger sister, so how could he have romantic feelings for her.

Old Master Ye could not persuade him no matter how he tried, so he slapped him across the face, cursed him for being a scoundrel, and for wasting Du Haiqing's time for so many years.

Before the swelling on Ye Brother Changying's face had even gone down, he had already run off abroad.

Du Haiqing did not say a word; she packed her bags and chased after him to the United States.

But she did not expect that Ye Brother Changying would meet Ye Chen's mother in the United States and find his true love.

Yet, Du Haiqing still did not give up.

She persisted, persisting until the night before Ye Brother Changying's wedding.

That night, she was still hoping for a miracle to happen.

Hoping that Ye Brother Changying would bring his good brothers to her house to pick up the bride early the next morning.

But, in the end, Ye Brother Changying never appeared.

After that, Ye Brother Changying got married.

He and his wife led the Ye family to forge ahead, and all of Yanjing praised them as a match made in heaven, while only Du Haiqing washed her face with tears every night.

She always felt that she was the woman in this world who loved Ye Brother Changying the most.

It was just a pity that Ye Brother Changying ultimately did not choose to be with her.

Back then, when Ye Brother Changying unhesitatingly chose the woman who would become his wife, Du Haiqing almost cried until all her tears ran dry.

Yet, she wiped away her tears and continued to love Ye Brother Changying deeply, like a wife waiting for her husband to return, gazing into the distance and waiting for him to have a change of heart.

It was just a pity that Ye Brother Changying ultimately never looked back.

When Ye Brother Changying got married, she calmly accepted everything, and then just as calmly accepted Su Shoudao's years-long, frantic pursuit.

When Ye Brother Changying passed away, she cried bitterly once again; that time, she was even rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment overnight due to excessive grief.

However, the Su family did not tell anyone about this, not even Du Haiqing's own family.

Su Shoudao did not speak of it because he was afraid of losing face.

He could not let people know that his wife, the wife he loved so deeply, had actually cried until her heart was broken and she almost followed another man to the grave because of his death.

For a long time after that, Su Shoudao took care of her wholeheartedly; he did not complain to Du Haiqing once, because he knew there was no need.

Since Ye Brother Changying was already dead, after his wife finished crying this one time, Ye Brother Changying would never again threaten their relationship, so why bother complaining to Du Haiqing about it?

However, what Su Shoudao did not expect was that a few years ago, a satellite TV station in a southern province launched a program called "I Am a Singer." Du Haiqing, who had always loved music, stayed in front of the TV every week to watch it, so he accompanied Du Haiqing to watch a few episodes.

Every episode, he would discuss with Du Haiqing who sang better and whose adaptation was good; the two watched it with great interest and harmony.

Until suddenly one day, a female singer named Huang Qishan covered the song "Can't Leave You."

When Du Haiqing heard that song, her emotions collapsed again; she covered her face alone and cried her heart out in front of the TV.

Su Shoudao still remembers the lyrics of that song vividly to this day.

The lyrics go like this:

"You opened your arms and melted me,

You lightly twisted your fingertips and crushed me,

You stirred up the clouds and winds and swept me away,

You raised waves and abandoned me...

The two of us, it's too unfair,

Love and hate are all manipulated by you.

But today, I can no longer leave you.

No matter if you, love me or not..."

Huang Qishan's vocal condition was excellent, and when the song reached its most emotional part, it was simply heartbreaking.

At that time, Su Shoudao saw Du Haiqing crying out of control and reached out to pull her into his arms, but he never dreamed that Du Haiqing would refuse to let him hold her. She listened to the whole song while crying alone, and then locked herself in the bedroom to cry for more than an hour.

Su Shoudao was in an extremely bad mood at the time.

Because he knew very well that the reason Du Haiqing cried like that because of this song was entirely because of Ye Brother Changying, who had been dead for more than ten years!

The lyrics of this song were simply too fitting for Du Haiqing's feelings for Ye Brother Changying.

Du Haiqing's heart had been melted by Ye Brother Changying, crushed by Ye Brother Changying, swept away by Ye Brother Changying, and abandoned by Ye Brother Changying back then!

Du Haiqing's love was completely controlled by Ye Brother Changying alone!

No matter if Ye Brother Changying loved her or not, Du Haiqing could not leave him. Even if she left him physically and left him in space, her heart had never left him!

At that moment, Su Shoudao could not help but have tears streaming down his face.

He did not understand what kind of magic Ye Brother Changying had that made his wife love him to death while he was alive, and even after being dead for more than ten years, he could still make his wife love him to death?!

It was also at that moment that Su Shoudao hated Ye Brother Changying even more, even more than when Ye Brother Changying was alive!

He even wanted to dig up Ye Brother Changying's grave and scatter his ashes!

And for Du Haiqing, she had only loved one person in her life, and that person was Ye Brother Changying.

As for Su Shoudao, he was just a stepping stone she found for herself after Ye Brother Changying got married.

At that time, all of Yanjing was amazed by Ye Brother Changying's "wedding of the century," and at the same time, they felt pity for Du Haiqing.

The strong-willed Du Haiqing did not want to be looked down upon, which is why she agreed to Su Shoudao's pursuit.

However, from beginning to end, she never loved Su Shoudao.

Although after she got married, she always served her husband and taught her children, observed the duties of a wife, and never had any behavior that crossed the line with any man.

But she still did not love Su Shoudao.

She didn't love him on the day they got married.

To this day, after being married for more than twenty years, she still doesn't love him.

It is not that Du Haiqing is cold and heartless, but that love is just love; no matter how much you force yourself or convince yourself, if you don't love, you don't love.

At this moment, looking at Ye Brother Changying's photo and reminiscing about the past, Du Haiqing couldn't help but shed two more lines of hot tears.

She put on her Bluetooth headset and played the song "Can't Leave You" again.

As the song started, she murmured to herself in her heart: "Brother Changying, the two of us, it really is too unfair. I have loved you for nearly forty years; why, from beginning to end, were you unwilling to give me even a single chance?"

"If you had given me a chance back then, I wouldn't have done any worse than anyone else..."

"If you had given me a chance back then, you wouldn't have passed away in the prime of your life so early..."

The song happened to be at its most emotional part at this moment; thinking of this, Du Haiqing's tears had already broken through the dam...

And just at this moment, her mobile phone suddenly received multiple push notifications in a row, the most striking of which was: "The Japanese National Security Agency releases an announcement, exposing a shocking scandal of the Su family!"
