Chapter 968 - Have You Never Liked Me?

Panda Novel

"Although, although I don't know what will happen in the future, I want to be with you now."

She grabbed his hand and looked at him pitifully. "Didn't you say that you want me to be your girlfriend? Let's be together now, alright?"

"The person you like is Ah Si." After a moment of shock, Gong Zeli's expression returned to normal. He ignored her pleas and resistance and forcefully pulled her hand away. "Shen Rou, you don't have to use this method to make me stay.

"I'm not important to you. You can't accept that I'm leaving you now only because you're used to me being nice to you and being by your side all the time. But this is just a form of reliance that has been nurtured for a long time, it's not true love.

"Any habit and reliance can be forgotten over time."

"No." Shen Rou shook her head vigorously. "It's not like that, Zeli. I really…"

"I don't want to know what you're thinking. Shen Rou, we can't be together." Gong Zeli cut her off coldly. "You're not the only one who has figured things out. I've figured it out too. I always thought that I liked you, so I wanted to be with you, marry you, and make you my wife. That way, I could take care of you for the rest of my life."

Shen Rou widened her eyes as her tear-stained face turned pale. "W-What are you trying to say?"

Gong Zeli looked at her and hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "I just realized that I've never liked you. My feelings for you aren't that of a man and a woman."

Shen Rou's face went pale.

"W-What did you say? Gong Zeli, are you trying to tell me that you've never liked me?"

Gong Zeli kept quiet for a while before replying apologetically, "I think so."

At that time, he was still young and thought that he liked her.

Although he had some doubts, he still wanted to take good care of her.

No matter what, she'd saved his life.

Shen Rou's face was pale as a ghost.

She shook her head vigorously. "Impossible, impossible!"

How could he have never liked her?

He must be angry.

He was angry because she lied to him and suspected that he liked Qiao Mianmian.

That was why he said those words to spite her.

Yes, that's right.

He must have said it out of anger. She refused to believe that he'd never liked her.

He treated her so well and pampered her so much, how could he not have liked her?

Gong Zeli looked at her calmly. "Back then, I was still young and didn't know how it felt to like someone. That's why I mistook gratitude for love. Now that I've thought it through, I have to make things clear."

"Enough!" Shen Rou covered her face and cried. "Don't speak anymore, I don't want to hear it. Gong Zeli, how could you be so cruel to me. How could you!"

Gong Zeli looked at her quietly for a while. "If you're willing to stop now, don't go after Qiao Mianmian in the future. I can help you plead with Ah Si. Shen Rou, feelings can't be forced. You don't have to force it.

"Give up, let Ah Si and Qiao Mianmian go, and let yourself go too."
