Chapter 1229 - 1168: Struggle of the Cornered Beast (Part 3)
"Nonsense—" Shi Nuan gritted her teeth and stood up abruptly, scolding.
Her voice wasn’t loud, yet it attracted the curious gazes of those around, wondering what had happened.
Shi Nuan was indeed angry, although she hadn’t personally experienced the family atmosphere Wang Sai described.
But no matter how hard or exhausting it gets, one should never give up hope for the future.
Living is tough, but aren’t we all striving to live?
Shi Nuan took a deep breath, trying to calm her emotions before sitting back down.
Looking at Wang Sai, Shi Nuan said, "Fine, I don’t want to scold you. Let me ask you, since you plan to leave Ou Xiaoning and don’t want her to live in darkness like you, why are you telling me all this? I don’t understand..."
"I want you to help me..."
"Help you?" Shi Nuan didn’t get his point.
Wang Sai said, "I know... I know you had a hard time in the Shi Family after your mother passed away, but seeing you gives me peace. I want to learn your mindset; I want to see things more clearly. In the past, I only thought of letting Xiao Ning change me and change our whole family, but I forgot, I could change myself too. I’ve tried many ways but could never succeed, so I want you to tell me, what should I do..."
Shi Nuan furrowed her brow; she didn’t know how to reply to Wang Sai.
Should she tell him that she endured the past ten years with an unfinished mission and unsatisfied vengeance driving her?
No one is born brave, but if you’re not, who will stand strong for you?
However, she was fortunate to have met Song Yansheng; she didn’t find her way out by herself but was actually pulled out by Song Yansheng.
Shi Nuan looked at him and asked, "You don’t want to give up on Xiao Ning, right?"
Wang Sai nodded firmly: "I don’t want to; I’ve never thought of giving up on Xiao Ning, never..."
"Then go find her, right now, go to Xiao Ning!"
Wang Sai was stunned, unable to believe it.
Shi Nuan said, "Since you don’t want to give up, then go find her now and tell her the whole truth. As for what Xiao Ning will choose, that’s up to her because it’s you who doesn’t want to give up on her, isn’t it?"
After a pause, Shi Nuan added, "Wang Sai, you should know, some feelings, once missed, last a lifetime. Don’t do things you’ll regret... I forgot to tell you, Xiao Ning went on a blind date a few days ago..."
"I’ll go right away..." Wang Sai stood up abruptly, waving to the server to settle the bill.
Shi Nuan, however, smiled softly and said, "Go ahead, this coffee is on me!"
Wang Sai looked at Shi Nuan, his thin lips tightly pressed, finally nodding, saying, "Thank you..."
As Wang Sai was about to leave, Shi Nuan suddenly called out to him, saying, "Wait!"
Wang Sai paused, turned his head, and looked at Shi Nuan, puzzled.
Shi Nuan’s eyes flickered slightly, and after a while, she said, "I want to know about that girl... your first love, I heard she looks quite like Xiao Ning..."
"No..." Wang Sai refuted directly, "Maybe people think they look a bit alike, but in my heart, Xiao Ning is Xiao Ning, and she is her. Xiao Ning doesn’t look like anyone else; she’s just Xiao Ning, the one who brings me sunshine and warmth, the one and only Xiao Ning in the world..."
Shi Nuan was momentarily stunned but then smiled with her head down.
Indeed, in this world, there may be people who look similar, but they are just similar, ultimately different.
The more you understand and are close to someone, the more apparent these differences become.
She felt that in Song Yansheng’s heart, she must also be unique.
She nodded and said to Wang Sai, "You’re right; your Xiao Ning is irreplaceable, the one and only in this world... Go on, good luck, Wang Sai!"
Wang Sai nodded and almost ran out of the café.
After Wang Sai left, Shi Nuan called the server to settle the bill and then left with her bag.
At that time, the sun outside was still scorching, and when she looked up at the sky, it still seemed dazzling.
They say behind every cloud is a silver lining, but sometimes you can’t see the forest for the trees.
People easily get entangled, becoming trapped animals, unable to save themselves.
Just like she once was, just like Wang Sai is now.
