Chen Yurong suppressed her anger, took a deep breath, and tried to make her voice sound as humble and pleading as possible.
"I was too childish back then. I was always losing my temper over nothing and sulking at you. When I said we should break up, I was just being spiteful. Later, I wanted to apologize, but I couldn't work up the courage. I know you resent me and you're still angry with me. Please, let go of that anger. If you can't, yell at me a little to get it out of your system, but please don't treat me like I don't exist. Only now do I realize that meeting you in this lifetime used up every last bit of my luck!"
Listening to the voice coming through his phone, Director Gao sat stunned for several seconds.
You've managed to cram quite a lot of hot air into that speech. I'm honestly impressed!
"What exactly do you want?" Gao Songzhi asked in a low voice.
"I really don't mean anything else. I just want to treat you and Hongying to dinner and catch up," Chen Yurong replied, sounding rather wronged.
"Then talk to Hongying. If she agrees, I have no objections. Anyway, I have a guest here. I'm hanging up."
Not wanting to waste time, Gao Songzhi made up an excuse and ended the call.
At the other end, Chen Yurong gripped her phone, her face dark.
You heartless, faithless bastard! How can you be so cold?
I gave you all my firsts back then! They say even a single day as husband and wife creates a lasting bond. Put your hand on your heart and count how many days we had!
You think I wouldn't dare call Qu Hongying?
What a joke. She's exactly who I'm after!
