"Hearing you say that puts my mind at ease."
"What are you relieved about?"
"I've always been afraid you'd hate me because of what happened back then."
He rejected her!
Afraid she'd get angry, afraid she'd be heartbroken, afraid she wouldn't be able to let it go.
Song Ci looked at him, changing the subject, "So, tell me, what's the deal with your wife? If I'm not mistaken, she's cheating on you."
How could he tolerate such a thing?
He is Cheng Xinghe, after all.
Cheng Xinghe smiled slightly, "It's nothing, just that she wants a divorce, and I'm not agreeing, so she's playing some petty tricks."
"Then just divorce her!" Song Ci said, "Are you afraid there isn't anyone better than her in this world? You are Cheng Xinghe, what are you afraid of? Even if you're single, you can still live well."
Cheng Xinghe drank some wine, his eyes deep, "I'm just afraid that after the divorce, she won't find someone better than me."
