"No, I know best who is most suitable for me, and I've never loved her. The woman I love has always been you," Jing Chenxi declared passionately.
"Now that we're both single, free from any commitments, this is an opportunity fate has given us. Ning Ning, please don't reject me so hastily. Take some time to think it over. In the years ahead, I'll make every effort to ensure your happiness, as if you were a queen. Trust me, I have the capability and the confidence."
Shen Ning stood there, stunned.
Any woman would have been deeply moved by such a heartfelt confession from an exceptional man. But she couldn't.
"Mr. Jing, it's been so many years. If we could have been together, we would have by now. It's just not possible between us. Please let go." She quickly and resolutely declined, her face displaying her determination, then turned and hurried away.
