After being reborn, all I want to do is run away.

Chapter 510 Relationship Severing

"Shen Xu, what is your relationship with Miss Li?" Bai Lu suddenly asked.

Upon hearing this question, Shen Xu fell silent for a moment, then said, "Ling Hui is the master here. It's not good for us to leave them outside."

"Wait here a moment, I'll go and call them in."

After saying that, he got up and walked out of the cabin.

Bai Lu and Guan Bi exchanged a glance, both feeling somewhat uneasy.

"Young Master Song, I'm sorry about what happened to Miss Ji today. I do have some things I'd like to discuss with Bai Lu and Guan Bi alone," Shen Xu apologized to the two.

“It’s alright. Brother Shen’s matter is important. May we go in now?” Song Han asked.

“Tingtao Residence is Linghui’s property, so she has the final say.” Shen Xu walked to Li Linghui’s side and gently took her hand.

Li Linghui looked up at him and then tightly grasped his hand, saying, "Shen Lang is just joking with you guys!"

Please come in. Tingtao Residence always welcomes you both.

Upon seeing this, Ji Ling Shuang and Song Han's expressions changed slightly.

"Thank you!" Song Han's eyes held a hint of amusement.

Ji Ling Shuang gave Shen Xu a deep look, then said coldly, "You start something and then abandon it!" Then she followed Song Han into the cabin.

Li Linghui trembled upon hearing this word.

"Linghui, thank you for today!" Shen Xu whispered in Li Linghui's ear, trying to ease her tension.

"It's what I should do," Li Linghui said with a slightly forced smile.

Seeing Li Linghui's state, Shen Xu wanted to let go of her hand. He didn't want to force Li Linghui to play along with his act.

As a result, Li Linghui held his hand tightly and said to him earnestly, "Although I appeared in your life a little late, my love for you is no less than theirs."

"I know!" Shen Xu replied calmly.

When Bai Lu and Guan Bi saw Shen Xu and Li Linghui walk into the cabin hand in hand, their hearts, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died.

Bai Lu couldn't help but want to laugh. What was she so upset about? Why should she be upset about such a jerk? It was the girl who had the worst luck to fall for this jerk!

She should be thankful, thankful that she saw through that bastard's true colors before she got too deeply involved, thankful that she didn't fall into his clutches, thankful that he didn't choose to hide it from her, thankful that she didn't end up with him...

Bai Lu's vision suddenly blurred. "Bai Lu, why are you so useless! That bastard isn't worth a single tear from you."

But why do I just want to cry? Why does my heart feel so heavy? Why do I feel so sad...?

Why exactly…

Guan Bi stared blankly at the two intimate figures in front of her, her mind a complete blank. She couldn't believe that what she was seeing was real.

"Guanbi, we should go. Don't disturb their time together!" It wasn't until Bai Lu's icy voice rang in her ears that she snapped out of her daze.

Guan Bi shook her head slightly, then looked at Shen Xu with lifeless eyes, "Why did you choose her? You clearly had so many choices. Even if you didn't choose me or Miss, you should have chosen Miss Xiao Yi."

"Feel sorry……

Liking someone doesn't need a reason. I only consider you all friends, but Linghui gives me a special feeling, making me involuntarily obsessed with her. I think that must be love.

"Is that so?" Guan Bi gave a bitter smile.

"I really was a fool, completely fooled by you, naively believing that as long as I was proactive enough and made enough concessions, there was a possibility of being with you. In the end, it was all just wishful thinking on my part."

Hearing Guan Bi's sorrowful voice, Shen Xu felt as if a huge boulder was pressing down on his heart, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

But there was no turning back for him; he was destined not to give them a future.

Shen Xu unconsciously tightened his grip on Li Linghui's hand. "Guanbi, you have a better future, while I am just a passing scene on your journey. You don't need to stop for me."

Guan Bi gave a wry smile, "It seems I've never had a place in your heart."

We've been through so much together, and you just leave like that.

A woman I've only known for a few days can make me fall head over heels for her; in the end, I made a mistake in my trust.

"Miss, it seems we really should leave." Guan Bi smiled bitterly and stood up, saying.

"Shen Xu, the Ancient Forest doesn't welcome you. I'll find you a new place to stay," Bai Lu said coldly as she walked up to Shen Xu.

"Then thank you very much, Miss Bai," Shen Xu said with a smile.

Bai Lu clenched her fist instantly and, without warning, slammed it into Shen Xu's face, startling Li Linghui.

"If Miss Bai feels happier this way, I can let you do it a few more times." Shen Xu touched his slightly sore face and smiled again.

“Hitting you would be an insult to me, and one such insult is enough.” Bai Lu smiled as well.

"Shen Xu, I will not break my promise to you."

But I hope you're also prepared to face Miss Xiao Yi. Miss Xiao Yi and I are considered the more mild-mannered type; she really might kill you.

After Guan Bi reminded her, she followed Bai Lu out of the cabin.

"I wonder if you two have had enough? If you have, I think you can leave now," Shen Xu said with a smile to Song Han, who looked like he still hadn't had enough.

"Brother Shen, I have never admired anyone in my life, but you are one of them." Song Han looked at Shen Xu with some respect in his eyes.

"Vixen!" Ji Ling Shuang muttered under her breath as she looked at Li Ling Hui.

“I have a friend who might not agree with what you said, so please apologize to Linghui.”

“Ling Shuang, what you said was indeed somewhat inappropriate,” Song Han said softly.

"I won't! You're no better than me." Ji Ling Shuang got up and was about to leave.

Shen Xu was about to stop her when Li Linghui pulled him back and gently shook her head at him.

"Remember my payment. You can come to me again if you need anything else!" Shen Xu reminded Ji Ling Shuang.

"Here you go! I would never owe money to a scoundrel like you, and I, Ji Ling Shuang, would rather die than ask you for help again!" Ji Ling Shuang threw a purple-gold pill note on the ground and stomped on it hard.

Song Han smiled apologetically at them, gave them a new ticket, and then followed Ji Ling Shuang out of the cabin.

Shen Xu bent down and picked up the brand-new Purple Gold Pill ticket, then couldn't help but laugh at himself.

"I'm sorry, I was too selfish." Li Linghui's voice was choked with emotion.

“It’s none of your business. Even without you, I was destined not to be with them.”

"Why did God let me meet you so late? I feel so sorry for them, so sorry for you!"

"If it weren't for me, things wouldn't have turned out this way." Li Linghui nestled in his arms and sobbed softly.

"It's alright, what's done is done, there's no point in saying anything more." Shen Xu stroked Li Linghui's hair, his gaze growing increasingly deep.
