The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex Chapter 1197

Chapter 1197: Just as Friends
Ye Hao said softly and there was a pleading note in his voice.
He had waited for so many years, so he didn’t want to wait any longer.
He Xiyan heard him but she didn’t turn to look at him. Instead, she placed her hands on the windowsill.
A cold wind blew and it carried some moisture with it. The wind felt like a knife that sliced past her face.
Ye Hao walked over, shut the window, and stood behind her.
This was such a familiar scene. They had once stood in front of the full-length windows and admired the hill with an elevation of less than 300 meters.
He still remembered how she looked like as she sat in front of the window and drew the scenery. She would hold her paints and her paintbrushes as she painted the scenery, one stroke at a time.
She would occasionally include him in her paintings. He would usually appear as a tall silhouette in her paintings.
“Yan Yan…” Ye Hao said when she didn’t respond. He guessed that she was probably feeling a little conflicted.
He Xiyan finally reacted. She turned and looked at the man beside her, and saw the hope in his eyes.
She couldn’t help but sigh before she shook her head.
“Ye Hao, why must you do so?”
He Xiyan knew what he was thinking and she also knew that he had always been waiting for her.
Why was he so hung up over her after so many years? Why couldn’t he find his own happiness instead of constantly being so hung up over her?
Ye Hao shot her a soft smile and looked deep into her eyes as he said, “It’s because I love you. I only want to be with you, Yan Yan.”

Ye Hao spoke the truth. He gave himself wholeheartedly in every relationship. Once he was in love, he wouldn’t look at any other women. Once he fell out of love, he would no longer have any feelings toward the woman he had once loved.
He had once loved Han Xue and while he had given everything to this relationship when he was in love with her, once he fell out of love with her, he couldn’t even bothered to spare her a glance.
He didn’t know how much he loved He Xiyan but he knew that during those few years when he thought that she was dead, he hadn’t smiled nor did he spend a single day not regretting his actions.
Life didn’t seem to have any color and he didn’t have interest in anything else after she left.
When he saw the bullet hurtling toward her at the airport, he instinctively rushed to protect her without a second thought.
The only thing he knew was that he couldn’t let her be injured.
He Xiyan’s heart skipped a beat. She pursed her lips and she blinked up at him. Soon, tears welled up in her eyes.
She turned away and stared outside at the street lights that were now lighted up.
She knew that Ye Hao meant what he said and she didn’t doubt his feelings for her, but she was tired and didn’t have the courage nor the confidence to begin another relationship, let alone another marriage.
“Ye Hao…” she said as she took a deep breath and looked at the man next to her.
Ye Hao nodded and waited for her response. However, he didn’t intend to change his mind based on her response.
He Xiyan smiled wryly and paused for a moment before she said, “If I want to live with you as a friend and look after each other in a platonic way rather than as husband and wife, would you still be willing to move in?”

Her voice was extremely soft. She didn’t know why she said this but this was how she felt at the moment.
She wanted him to find a girl who was more suitable for him instead of constantly pining after her but she knew that he wouldn’t do that. He hasn’t found another woman after so many years had passed.

He turns his head and looks at me his icy blue eyes shooting metaphorical bullets at me and a cynical smile playing on his lips. I look away and clench my jaw, I have no appetite."Excuse me," I say getting up from the dinner table and storming out the dinning hall. My heart ached and I felt like I was about to explode into a fit of never ending tears"Where the hell are you going?" He asked grabbing my arm, I didn't even notice he came after me"Away from the both of you," I said never looking at his eyes"Get your ass back in there and eat, you haven't eaten in days you're gonna end up dying," he said almost with sympathy, he touched my jaw and my then my cheeks. My skin burned under his touch I craved for more, I wanted more, "you're a weak, pathetic human never forget you're not as strong as we are go back and eat your dinner," he pulled his hands off me and his voice became filled with anger "No!" I shouted back, I will not follow his stupid orders and over my dead body will I go back there just to be humiliated, "why don't you just reject me already? What the hell are you waiting for? I don't wanna be here stuck with you and clearly you hate me put us both out our misery and reject me Mason" He frowned and signaled a guard, "take her away."
