Chapter 640: Chapter 636 I Can’t Forget Him (3rd Update)

Mu Qingxue left. She just left Bai’s Group, her heart shattered, without even the intention to greet Bai Zhiqing.

Her sole purpose for coming to Bai’s Group was to find Lu Tianxing and see if he still remembered her. Unfortunately, the answer she received broke her heart. Lu Tianxing remembered her, but her knight in shining armor was protecting another princess, a princess who was not her.

Mu Qingxue did not know how she managed to leave Bai’s Group. All she knew was that when she sat in the car, she felt as if all her strength had been drained, tears uncontrollably rolling down her cheeks, her shoulders slackening slightly, feeling waves of sourness emerging from the bottom of her heart.

She had not expected the person she had missed for so many years to reject her in such a manner.

Gongsun Ye sat in the driver’s seat, watching Mu Qingxue’s distraught appearance in the back seat and sighed deeply. He did not need to guess to know what had happened. He felt a mix of happiness and sorrow.

He was happy that Mu Qingxue might finally move on and no longer have to endure the pressure from the Mu Family. After all, the Mu Family would never allow Mu Qingxue to be with Lu Tianxing. Matching social and economic statuses was a tradition in China that had not disappeared for thousands of years.

If Mu Qingxue insisted on being with Lu Tianxing, she would have to endure the immense pressure of the entire Mu Family. This pressure was unimaginable and could even lead to the destruction of both Bai’s Group and Lu Tianxing under the wrath of the Mu Family, or a scenario where both sides suffered losses. Being stuck in the middle, Mu Qingxue had the most difficult role. Now that it was over, she no longer needed to bear the family’s pressure.

What made him sad was that he always treated Mu Qingxue as his own granddaughter, and it was because of his presence that the Mu Family had not forced her to marry someone. Seeing his own granddaughter cry so heartbrokenly made him feel extremely pained and worried.

”Miss, don’t cry. If there’s anything, talk to Grandpa Gongsun. Don’t keep it inside, it’s not good for your health.”

Gongsun Ye sighed softly. Although he did not enter Bai’s Group, he could guess the outcome and wanted to offer some comfort, yet did not know how to begin.

”Grandpa Gongsun, do you think I’m very ugly, not as beautiful as his wife, Bai Zhiqing?”

Mu Qingxue raised her head and looked at Gongsun Ye, her eyes red and her appearance as if drenched in pear blossoms, irresistibly invoking pity.

”How could that be! My young lady is a beautiful woman, otherwise, how could she become everyone’s goddess!” Gongsun Ye consoled her.

”But... but why wouldn’t he even give me a hug, why, why did he reject me so heartlessly?”

Mu Qingxue’s face showed an expression of pain. Earlier in the cafeteria, she wanted Lu Tianxing to hug her again, but the man directly refused her request without any hesitation.

Gongsun Ye, hearing Mu Qingxue’s words, could only sigh deeply again, not knowing where to start.

He was not a fool, and he could clearly see why Lu Tianxing rejected Mu Qingxue. Lu Tianxing was already married, had a wife, and did not want to cause trouble with Mu Qingxue, nor did he want to give her any false hopes. In dragging it out, it would benefit neither; it was better to make a clean break and sever this tie decisively.

Although he did not know the real reason why Lu Tianxing outright rejected Mu Qingxue, Gongsun Ye vaguely had an answer in his mind. It was very likely related to Mu Qingxue’s identity or the Mu Family. The Mu Family would never allow Mu Qingxue to marry an ordinary person, much less stand for her falling in love with a married man and becoming a mistress, which for any family, was an immense disgrace, birthing endless turmoil.

At that time, being caught between her lover and her family, perhaps that would be truly the most painful moment for her.

”Qingxue, it has come to this. Forget him! He will not be your future husband; he is married,” Gongsun Ye regained his composure and said, looking at the teary-eyed Mu Qingxue, advising her.

”But I can’t forget him, Grandpa Gongsun, I can’t let go of him, I don’t want to forget him.”

Mu Qingxue looked at Gongsun Ye in pain. Lu Tianxing had saved her twice, giving her life twice, and she really didn’t want to forget Lu Tianxing. She truly didn’t want this love to end before it even began.

Seeing Mu Qingxue’s expression, Gongsun Ye sighed and said, ”But he is already married. Do you really want to be a despised mistress?”

”I don’t care.”

Mu Qingxue bit her red lips tightly. She didn’t want to give up so easily, just as she had said in Bai Zhiqing’s office, happiness is fought for by oneself. If one doesn’t even dare to fight for their own happiness, then they will truly never be happy in this life.

”But the Mu Family...”

”I don’t care. My mother once told me to pursue my own happiness. I’m not willing to give up just like that. If it really comes to that day, I will disappear completely from this world.”

Gongsun Ye was shocked upon hearing this and looked at Mu Qingxue with some astonishment. He shook his head gently and said, ”Well, if you want to pursue your happiness, then go ahead!”

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingxue suddenly raised her head and said, ”So, Grandpa Gongsun, you support me too?”

”If I don’t support you, won’t you pursue happiness anymore?” Gongsun Ye shook his head and said.

”Grandpa Gongsun...”

”Alright, stop crying. If you keep crying, you won’t be pretty anymore, and then he might not like you anymore.”

”Okay, next time I appear before him, I’ll definitely dazzle him.”

Mu Qingxue nodded firmly, her gaze fixed on the distant Bai’s Group. She wouldn’t give up so easily. When she saw Lu Tianxing again, she would definitely make a dazzling impression.

...

Inside the Bai’s Group.

After watching Mu Qingxue’s figure disappear, Lu Tianxing gently shook his head and took the elevator to the top floor, heading towards Bai Zhiqing’s office.

Upon hearing the door open, Bai Zhiqing subconsciously raised her head. On seeing Lu Tianxing returning alone, she paused slightly: ”Lu Tianxing, why are you alone? Where is Qingxue? Why didn’t she come back with you?”

”She left,” Lu Tianxing said flatly, his expression somewhat troubled. Remembering Mu Qingxue’s heartbroken look as she left, Lu Tianxing sighed deeply in his heart.
