147. Chapter 147 I Want to See Him 3

After Shangguan Yun heard my words, his tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed, the corners of his mouth slightly lifted, forming a lovely smile, and he held me even tighter.

Suddenly I thought of a bitterly ironic joke—before, Haohua, just like Shangguan Yun, treasured me as a jewel, doted on me, loved me, over and over saying he would never leave me, over and over saying he couldn't live without me, yet in the end he callously tossed me aside. At that time I shed many tears in front of him, but he remained unmoved. Thinking back, whenever I shed tears before him, he would become flustered, not knowing what to do. Yet after we broke up, I went to find him many times, tears streaming in his presence, and he showed not the slightest reaction.

"What's wrong? You're smiling so coldly—do you have something on your mind?" Shangguan Yun really is quite attentive; he even noticed such a subtle detail.

"No, I'm just wondering whether a year from now you'll still treat me this way, care for me this much." After I finished speaking, I gave a self‑deprecating laugh.

"I promise, no matter how many years pass, my heart for you will not change—it will only grow to love you more and care for you more; please believe me, okay?" Hearing Shangguan Yun's words, I felt somewhat moved, but honestly I cannot fully trust his words; after going through that relationship with Haohua, I no longer believe these vows, nor do I believe in any eternal love.

"Hehe, to be honest I don't even have confidence in myself, but that's a matter for a year from now—let's not think that far ahead; just cherish the present." I said lightly, with a faint smile.

Perhaps it's because I don't believe Shangguan Yun's words; his gaze suddenly dimmed. Maybe what he's saying now comes from his heart, is sincere, and maybe he truly believes he will love me more and care for me more, but no one can predict the future—not even a year from now; speaking realistically, even what will happen tomorrow is beyond our ability to foresee.
