To Love You Again

Chapter 597 - Jang Shin and William

They just entered the room when Jang Shin spoke. "I know you are not serious with Xinyang. Please refrain from playing with her."

William scoffed. He was so irritated right now. "What are you telling to a man who is about to leave this country? I won\'t be seeing you two anymore, so there\'s no need for this empty threat and reminder."

Jang Shin paused.

William had a point.

However...

"Xinyang really looks up to you. Ever since the duel that day, she always kept it in mind. That martial arts addict will surely chase after you for a rematch until she wins. You could see how persistent she is in the past four days."

Tang Xinyang went with William enthusiastically for the purpose of asking for a rematch. William knew that as well. There were no amorous thoughts in her mind at all.

But pointing it out still gave a heavy blow on his pride and added a nail in his already aching heart.

He scowled. "So what are you trying to say? That she will chase after me to my country and I should ignore her or avoid her? Ha, who are you to say that? Are you her boyfriend?"

William\'s voice got colder. The usual playful smirk on his face was gone. When he was not smiling, he looked very intimidating.

But Jang Shin did not back down. His long and thin eyes narrowed as he stared back. "Yes, I ask you of that. As Xinyang\'s butler."

"Butler, my ass. You are not even her personal aide. Nor her boyfriend. Can\'t you just be straightforward and admit that you are jealous? Your actions really make you a coward."

Jang Shin clenched his fists.

William\'s words were all on point.

"You are right. I am not her personal aide and have no right to block you from her, nor am I her boyfriend. But... I am still her friend who is concerned for her. I have long heard of your escapades. Coward or not, I sincerely ask you to not play around with her feelings."

"..."

William closed his eyes to calm down his suffocated chest. He really wanted beat up this man.

Feelings?

What feelings?

That woman did not have an ounce of feelings at all for him!

What made this man think she had?

These two.. would surely kill the people around them with their ignorance and naivety! Agh!

William took a deep breath and opened his eyes. He calmed down.

"So you are saying that as long as I don\'t play around with her feelings, it is alright?"

Jang Shin\'s eyes were confused. "What?"

"I am saying that if I am serious about her, you won\'t stop me from dating her, or her coming to me?"

The other stiffened. "You..?"

"Yes, me. Unlike you, I can go and confess my sincere feelings right now and ask her for a true date between lovers. I will promise to not play with her feelings and sincerely treat her as my girlfriend."

Jang Shin\'s mind stopped working.

The playboy wanted to be serious with a girl?

And that girl was the tomboyish Tang Xinyang?

Jang Shin looked at William in disbelief. "There\'s no way that is true. You\'re lying."

"Do I look like I am joking?" William asked seriously and stepped forward.

His deep blue eyes reflected the feelings he was holding in the past four days.

Jang Shin\'s mind emptied out. It took a long time before he could start thinking again, but his thoughts were sluggish.

If William was really serious... then Xinyang...

Xinyang could really...

The image of the two in the ring appeared in Jang Shin\'s mind. Both of them were grinning with bright eyes, having fun. They looked good together. So good that Jang Shin\'s heart was squeezed painfully.

There was a long period of silence as the two men faced off.

"I can\'t." These words came out with difficulty from his lips. He closed his eyes. "I can\'t let you do that."

He could not fool himself. He could not bear to leave Tang Xinyang to another man, even if that man was a strong and exemplary man like William Grand.

William\'s face was calm, but his fists already clenched.

Ha.

Even at this time...

His voice was quiet. "So what do you plan to do? Are you going to prevent her from getting happiness with other men, because of your selfish heart? You don\'t want her, but you won\'t allow other people to get her. What is it that you really want?"

Jang Shin could not speak. He looked at his clenched hands.

He...

Jang Shin\'s belief and aspiration flashed in his mind, but they all looked distant and minor right now that a part of him was saying that it did not matter anymore.

William looked at the dull face of the conflicted man.

If Jang Shin could not speak the feelings hidden in his heart outright, then he, William, would speak out. He knew that this would be the only chance he could get to declare his feelings.

"I like Xinyang. It even crossed my mind that if it is her, I can tie myself down in a marriage with her. I have never considered any woman as part of my future before. She is the first. It is funny to think that I already like her this much after only meeting and knowing her for a short period of time. But that shows how likeable and adorable she is. Did you know, in just a span of four days, she made miserable."

His blue eyes dimmed. He turned away and walked a few steps aside. He put his hands in his pockets and stared blankly at the wall.

"However, she only likes you. She is stubborn and persistent. Perhaps, even after ten years, she will still chase after you. You don\'t even know how to treasure her. Don\'t take her feelings for granted. I should be the one condemning you, bastard."

"I am William. Many women line up to get me. I can\'t spend ten years or twenty years wasting my time on a person who will not love me back. However..." The tall blonde-haired man looked at Jang Shin again. "Once she gave up on you, I will come running to get her."

The solemn blue eyes told Jang Shin that the man was not joking.

"So if you don\'t want that to happen, don\'t make her wait until she gives up."

After saying these, William halted. What was he saying?

Helping out this ungrateful bastard? He did not have to fulfill Xiong Zhi\'s request anymore.

He smirked. "Actually, forget what I just said. If you can\'t marry her and make her happy, then give up as early as now and ruthlessly cut off Xinyang\'s feelings for you. Make it so that she will give up. I promise that I will make her happy."

Jang Shin\'s eyes flashed angrily, but he could not answer William.

William felt better after acting like the bad guy.

He should have been like that from the very beginning! It was not like him at all to give kind advice that would benefit the enemy.
