"No, I'm telling the truth, give it up. I...I'm telling the truth..." Tang Ying struggled to catch her breath, the words of rejection causing her immense pain.
"You...want me to give up?" Zhang Ziwen's voice trembled as he bore a pained expression. Her words pierced his heart like needles, causing immense pain.
"Could you...stop talking? Please...don't say any more..." Tang Ying heard the trembling in his voice, and she pleaded once again. She really didn't want to see Zhang Ziwen in pain, and she herself was on the verge of collapse.
"I understand... I get it now... You...already have a family, a husband." Zhang Ziwen was breaking down. He slumped powerlessly in the chair, dejected. Her unending rejections had only one explanation, she was a married woman. How foolish he had been, falling for her without even knowing her family background. He had rushed to play the part of a third wheel. Who was to blame? Himself, for hastening to become the third party.
