To Love You Again

Chapter 547 - Chasing After Her (TX and JS)

"You are not going after her?" William commented at the side after lighting up a candle for the hundred-year v.i.r.g.i.n who was seeking death. He reached out for a drink and moistened his lips.

William's blue eyes which was devoid of a smile looked coldly at Jang Shin's confused brown eyes.

"I don't like seeing a lady getting hurt in front of me. If you don't want to run after her, I will."

Jang Shin instantly stood up. He looked at William with threatening eyes. "Don't you dare go after her. Xinyang might seem tough on the outside, but she is really soft. Don't play with her feelings."

"Ha, so you know that her heart is not made of steel." William chuckled. His long fingers brushed back his golden blond hair lazily. "Play with her feelings? Between the two of us, who is the one who hurt her?"

"..."

"Think twice on who was the one who really played with her feelings."

Jang Shin's eyes melted into a pool of confusion. However, no matter how much he thought of it, Jang Shin still did not get the answer.

His feet moved and he ran towards Tang Xinyang's direction.

Xinyang's red eyes...

She was crying... She was hurt...

William's words ran in his mind as he sped forward.

'Who played with her feelings?! That amazon is the one who had been continuously playing with my feelings!'

But why am I so guilty?

Jang Shin gritted his teeth and went to the deserted hall where he heard the sound of heels clanking on the marble floor.

The sound of heels stopped, and he took the chance to use qigong in order to catch up.

In one turn by the corner, he found her.

"Tang Xinyang!"

The woman's head turned.

Her eyes were glistening with tears. There was a clear streak of tear on her cheek.

Jang Shin felt his heart squeeze painfully.

He made her cry.

But why would Tang Xinyang cry over that?

The impression of the steel woman whose heart was that of a man's had long been planted in Jang Shin's mind that he could not comprehend the sudden show of weakness.

Jang Shin was at loss.

"Xinyang, I--"

Before he could apologize, the woman suddenly turned around and started walking away fast, barefooted.

Jang Shin's heart clenched again.

"Xinyang!" He ran after her once more.

Although Tang Xinyang did not run, her long strides were fast.

Still, Jang Shin immediately caught up with her.

"Xinyang." He took hold of her arm, preventing her from going forward.

Tang Xinyang stopped, but did not turn around or look at him.

Jang Shin felt very unsettled, seeing her cry and her lack of response. He was struck with guilt at the realization that he had cruelly hurt her with his words.

"I... I am sorry, Xinyang. I did not mean to hurt you..." Then Jang Shin swallowed the rest, feeling the irony in his spoken words.

Silence.

The tall man's eyes swam around desperately, trying to find words. He did not know what was the right thing to say at this moment.

In the end,Jang Shin gritted his teeth and decided to be honest. "But Xinyang, what I said is the truth--"

Tang Xinyang immediately threw off his hands, her heart feeling hurt even more.

"So you ran after me to say that? You haven't had enough yet? I thought you came to tell me that you don't mean it, but you are actually saying it's the truth?"

'Am I really that horrible in your eyes?'

Tang Xinyang's red-rimmed eyes stared at Jang Shin. She felt even angrier and indignant.

Jang Shin closed his eyes for a moment and took a deep breath. He spoke slowly. "Xinyang, I am a man, so I know well which man is sincere about a woman. Don't you know William? He is a well-known Casanova! How many women had fallen victim to his charms yet were abandoned after?"

The unknowing William on the table who was drinking bitterly: Cough! Cough!

Tang Xinyang frowned at him. "This is not about William. Why are you involving him? He did not harm me. He is not the one who said those ill words!"

Jang Shin's chest felt suffocated.

Why was she so adamant about defending William? They had just met...!

Jang Shin did not like her talking about William nor defending him. All he could think of right now was to make her stop talking about that playboy.

Yet on the contrary, his uncontrollable mouth said otherwise. "Do you like him? I have no idea you will be so easily fooled. Wake up, Xinyang, that guy is just playing with you!"

Tang Xinyang could feel her hands itching for a fight. She had long been repressing her instincts to dive forward into a fight. The suppression made her heart feel as if it was being pressed by something heavy. Tang Xinyang was really infuriated at Jang Shin right now.

"I thought you are here to apologize?" Tang Xinyang coldly enunciated.

Jang Shin stilled. "I am..."

"You are not helping. Just go away." Tang Yin pushed him and walked forward.

No matter what she said, this stupidly idiotic dimwit could not understand her meaning at all. It was a waste of breath to talk any more.

"Xinyang!" But Jan Shin still ran after her, feeling nervous and panicked.

"What?! If you are going to say how dumb I am or how ugly I look, then just roll!" Tang Xinyang bursted out.

Jang Shin was taken aback. His lips opened tremblingly, "I, I..."

At this moment, the faintest sound of the soft piano started playing in the distance.

The concert had begun.

Tang Xinyang looked up dully.

Her sister's first piece in her first ever concert in the country was playing right now. As the older sister, Tang Xinyang had planned to be there to give Tang Yin her all-out support. But... She could not go back to that place considering how unseemly she appeared right now.

Tang Xinyang might accidentally cause trouble if she went there feeling this upset. She gritted her teeth and turned around again. Tang Xinyang wanted to calm herself down first then return to the hall.

"Xinyang..."

Seeing the indifferent back of the silent woman, the panic in Jang Shin's chest grew. He chased after her, but maintained a bit of distance.
