Chapter 1616: Mo Xicheng Reinstated (89)
Li Shu stared at him for the longest time before she smiled icily and said, “I’m sorry.”
She attempted to release her hand from his grip.
This time she was unexpectedly quite forceful, so Mo Hai released his grip.
She paused as the man continued, “Li Shu, I will not sign the divorce papers. Because I’m going to win you all over again. I managed to do it in my youth and now, I will start all over again.”
“Li Shu, I know that I went overboard and hurt you. But please give me another chance. You will see for yourself, I won’t be misled by Mo Zhi anymore, really. From now on I won’t trust him.”
After he said these words, Mo Hai looked at Li Shu and asked, “Will you give me one more chance?”
Li Shu frowned. After a moment, she shook her head.
She took a step back, cast her gaze down and said, “Mo Hai, sometimes you can start all over again, but there are some wounds that cannot be fixed with just an apology. I cannot forgive you, not because you mistreated me, not because you made a blunder and trusted Mo Zhi, or because you didn’t trust me. I cannot forgive you because I hate you and I blame you. If it weren’t for you, my son wouldn’t have suffered for so many years. Do you know that every time I think about how Mo Xicheng was mistreated for twenty years, my heart aches? It’s not that I’m unable to forgive you. Rather, I cannot forgive myself.”
After saying all of this, she added with a frosty laugh, “And you, can you make up for the twenty years that Mo Xicheng lacked a family? Can your apology bring back Mo Xicheng’s childhood, or our acknowledgment of him?”
Without waiting for his answer, Li Shu continued, “The answer is no.”
“Hence there is no hope for us. Mo Hai, let’s not be involved with each other anymore.”
On this note, Li Shu nodded at him and turned around. With the same graceful movements, she walked back to the villa.
Looking at her back, Mo Hai was overwhelmed by a sense of disappointment and abandonment.
He could only feel a cutting pain inside, and it hurt so much that he found himself unable to breathe.
He wanted to speak, but he held back. He got into the car and, with trembling hands, lit a cigarette. He drew in a deep puff that stung his lungs, causing him to splutter and cough violently.
The coughing caused his eyes to sting and tear up.
In his coughing fit, he accidentally hit the button that turned on the radio. A song came from the speakers immediately, it was all Li An’s “Love Is Over.”
The mournful tune filled the car.
Li An’s melancholic voice crooned:
“Love is over.
Time has rushed past like water,
water that calmed my soul.
The pain left without a trace.
Although you once had
shown true love,
and I made promises
of my steadfastness,
why did you leave without a word
and broke my heart to pieces?”
Immersed in sorrow, the tears that Mo Hai had fought so hard to hold back finally poured down.
The hot tears fell on the car seat.
He raised his hand to his mouth and tried to muffle his sobs.
He really truly did love Li Shu.
Was there really no more hope of a reconciliation between the two of them?
How had they come to this point?
