My Beautiful Love - Chapter 622
Yun Xuan was flabbergasted. What did he just say?
He was in love with her?
“I’ve been in love with you for a long time.” He added, afraid she might think he was being insincere.
…
Lin Ye anxiously waited for her response.
She was taking too long to respond. Was she going to reject him?
He gradually loosened his grip on her hand.
Yun Xuan was still shocked so she took a while to react to his words.
“Lin Ye, it’s not surprising that you feel that way, especially since I’ve been spending a lot of time by your side lately. Men tend to develop feelings for the women closest to them.”
Lin Ye felt something bad coming.
“However…”
‘Here comes my heartbreak.’ Lin Ye thought.
“…it’s often temporary since it’s just a feeling that developed over a short period.
Ultimately, you have a woman you have loved for years. I believe that’s the woman you truly love. Don’t allow yourself to be fazed over a momentary obsession, alright? Unless… unless you have decided to give up on her because she is married…”
Lin Ye was still in the mood to chuckle at such a time. He was not shocked that she knew about his secret flame. He would have Lin Lihua to thank for that. At this moment, however, she sounded much like a mother giving relationship advice to her son.
But he really wanted to flick some brains into her head. “You weren’t listening to me just now, were you?”
“…huh?”
Yun Xuan replayed their conversation just now.
He said that she had mentioned her preference before and he wouldn’t forget it. He also said that he had loved her for a long time.
Now that she thought about it, something didn’t feel right.
After her return from Country G, the number of times they had met was too few for them to have such a personal discussion.
The only plausible possibility was that… she said it when he was still in YX Brand…
Wait, why did that make sense?
But the woman he loved for years…
Suddenly, that made sense too.
Lin Lihua had said that he didn’t stop loving that woman even when she got married. She did get married in the past.
He had entered the fashion industry for her…
Although Lin Lihua didn’t say how that woman was related to the fashion industry exactly, his intention must have been to get close to that woman.
Assuming the woman was her, it would only be natural that he went to YX Brand.
Eh? What was she thinking? It wasn’t possible that they knew each other before his interview.
Her head hurt. Just when she was about to dismiss the thought, she suddenly recalled something.
That time when he resigned, he had spoken a mouthful of bitter words about not wanting to work with a selfish boss anymore.
Now that she thought back to it, why did his words sound more like heartbreak instead of disappointment?
By this time, Lin Ye’s heart had raced itself tired.
“I…”
“The woman you liked for many years… is it…” is it me?
He was about to tell her to forget about it when he was caught off guard by her incomplete question.
He anxiously replied, “I fell in love with you the first time I saw you. At first, I thought it was simply like taking a fancy to any pretty girl. However, time proved me wrong.
I wanted to be close to you no matter how hard it was. I would be willing to exchange anything for a single smile of yours.
“I…” Lin Ye paused. She was probably wondering why he never said a thing if he loved her so much.
“But I always felt you were out of my reach. I wasn’t good enough to wipe your shoes for you….” She was the young miss of such a rich family and although her father was a psychopath, her status was still that of an untouchable socialite at the time.
Before he finally felt confident in his status, she was taken.
However at this moment, it was clear as day that he would once again be too late if he kept slacking.
All this while, Yun Xuan was silent.
This twist was so dramatic she almost couldn’t follow.
How did it turn into Lin Ye having feelings for her?
This wasn’t some crazy prank, right?
Considering his personality, he wouldn’t joke around with such matters.
No wonder.
At this point, she felt she had been blind for may years. It felt like her eyes had just been opened.
No wonder he would always find excuses to pop into her office at YX Brand. Sometimes he wouldn’t have anything to say and would claim to have forgotten. Now the reason was clear.
No wonder he wouldn’t fail to compliment her beauty every time they met. She had naively thought that it was similar to how the female employees would keep praising her.
No wonder sometimes he would jokingly say that the greatest inspiration for his designs was his boss.
No wonder Lin Lihua wouldn’t stop nagging her to take care of Lin Ye.
No wonder even Xia Rou was doing the same thing.
Now that she thought about it, even Wan Jia seemed to be creating opportunities for the two of them.
No wonder when Tyler tried to harass her, Lin Ye beat him up so viciously. At the time she thought they looked like they held a deadly grudge against each other. Now it made sense.
There were so many things that had missed her scrutiny. So many no wonders filled her brain that she wanted to laugh.
When Lin Ye had waited for her answer for so long that his heart had almost given up hope, she finally spoke.
“I need time to process all of this.” She mumbled. It was too much information for her to take in. “Give me time to process all of this, okay?”
