Chapter 300: Chapter 307: Thirteen Sentences of Confession (7)

Ling Momo felt the rage burning within her. She halted in her tracks, slowly turned around, and her pitch-black, shining pupils flitted past Jian Chenxi, finally settling on Lu Niange’s face. A faint cold light flickered in her eyes, "Lu Niange, don’t you think what you just said is particularly funny?"

Lu Niange looked at her with bright, tender eyes, steady and unwavering.

Ling Momo’s face was expressionless, but seeing Lu Niange’s familiar and tender gaze, she truly couldn’t understand what game he was playing. He was once so cold and heartless towards her, and now what’s this charade of infatuation?

Ling Momo couldn’t help but let out a scoff, "Lu Niange, have you gone mad? I really don’t understand what got into you tonight! Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten that you and I no longer have anything to do with each other!"

Lu Niange’s hands tensed slightly, staring at the pretty girl in front of the cherry blossom tree, swinging in the autumn breeze, her bright eyes clear as moonlight, her demeanor calm yet sharp. He looked at her, feeling somewhat dazed, and never spoke, only slightly lowering his eyelids, sighing softly, "Momo, I know we have nothing to do with each other anymore... I’m just concerned about you..."

Concern?

Ling Momo thought that was the funniest joke she’d heard all year.

She couldn’t fathom what gave Lu Niange the right to stand in front of her and tell her that he cared about her.

Ling Momo stared at Lu Niange expressionlessly, feeling a flame surging in her heart, and clenched her fist tightly. She took a deep breath to steady her voice, so there were no ripples as she spoke each word clearly, "Lu Niange, do you know what is the most pathetic thing for a man?"

Lu Niange didn’t speak, looking into Ling Momo’s eyes, bright and dazzling, just like many years ago when Ling Momo had stopped Lu Niange in the dead of night, staring into his dazzling eyes and shouted, "Lu Niange, I like you!"

But time had passed, the stars had shifted, and everything had changed. The tumultuous emotions of the past had long since scattered to the ends of the earth.

Ling Momo’s heart was truly as calm as still water. She didn’t know when, but she could now stand so composedly in front of the man who once left her totally defenseless. Moreover, she could look straight into Lu Niange’s eyes without her face reddening or her heart racing.

Ling Momo spoke quietly, "The most pathetic thing for a man is not that no woman likes him, but that a woman who once liked him comes to believe that she had been blind!"

Suddenly, the light vanished from the depths of Lu Niange’s eyes. He pursed his lips and then bowed his head, "Momo, please don’t be like this..."

"And how am I being?" Ling Momo looked at Lu Niange and asked.

Lu Niange didn’t say anything for a long time. After a while, he finally spoke a few words, "You hate me."

He said it with such certainty.

Ling Momo suddenly laughed.

Hate?

How could she not?

When she had despaired not knowing what to do, she had indeed hated him.

Only after having hated could she clearly see how much she had loved, and then she began to hate herself.

How hopeless it was back then!

When she thought she would be immersed in it for a lifetime, unable to break free, she became numb, detached.

Ling Momo’s smile was beautiful and pure. She spoke very slowly, each and every word, "Mr. Lu, you are wrong, I did hate you."
