Chapter 1430: I Never Hated You
She felt especially aggrieved.
It was fine if others scolded and yelled at her, but the person she liked treated her this way too.
Was she really so annoying?
“I-It’s my fault. I was too dirty-minded. I’m sorry, I know I did something wrong. I won’t be a busybody anymore.” Shen Xin sobbed as she cried. “I know you don’t like me, and you hate me, but I still have to appear in front of you time and time again to upset you. I’m the one who doesn’t know my place. I’m thick-skinned. But don’t worry, this is the last time. I won’t do such wishful thinking again.
“You called me over just to tell me not to be a busybody in the future. I know, I really won’t do it again. Thank you for saving me some face and not saying this to me in public.”
Shen Xin wiped her tears.
She looked up at Qiao Chen with reddened eyes. “I’m sorry for troubling you again.”
Qiao Chen frowned and stared at her for a while before asking calmly, “Are you done?”
Shen Xin was stunned.
Qiao Chen continued, “If you’re done, can I speak now? What I’m about to say is the truth, not a single lie. So, Shen Xin, listen carefully.
“I don’t blame you for being nosy, nor do I hate you. You’ve never annoyed me.
“I’m not blaming you. I just want to tell you that I’m not interested in those women. We’re not what you think.”
Qiao Chen was stunned.
He suddenly realized that he was explaining to Shen Xin.
But he didn’t have to tell them about his relationship with Shen Xin.
He didn’t have to tell her his relationship with those women.
Shen Xin widened her eyes in disbelief.
He said he didn’t hate her?
Did she hear wrongly?
But he clearly hated her.
If he didn’t hate her, why would he ask her to stop pestering him? If he didn’t hate her, why would he pretend to ignore her every time they met?
If he didn’t hate her, why would he be so gentle to everyone but her?
If he didn’t hate her…
Recalling their time together, Shen Xin found it hard to believe that he didn’t hate her.
“Qiao Chen, you really… don’t hate me?” Shen Xin looked at her in disbelief.
Qiao Chen suddenly felt annoyed.
It happened again. Every time.
The moment he saw Shen Xin cry, he became annoyed.
This frustration wasn’t because of disgust.
He didn’t know why, but he felt uncomfortable when he saw her cry.
Those tears were like needles stabbing his heart.
The moment her tears fell, his heart started to ache.
“I’ve never hated you.” Qiao Chen looked at her and said word by word, “Shen Xin, I’ve never hated you.”
“But I’ve been pestering you for years.” Shen Xin pursed her lips and kept quiet for a while. “Don’t you find me annoying? Qiao Chen, you don’t have to care about my feelings. I’m not as weak as you think. You don’t have to lie to me.”
