Chapter 198: Heart-to-Heart Between Two Women

The orange glow of the light carried a unique enchantment. Under this unusually rippling atmosphere, Xiao Yufan gazed at the delicate figure in his arms, unable to suppress the surging emotions coursing through his veins…

At this moment, the most agonizing position belonged to the two girls in the main hall. Inexperienced as they were, they could only imagine what was happening inside the bedroom. They had to exert all their willpower to control themselves, trying desperately not to let their thoughts run wild.

“Elaine, I think you probably know what he went through over the past year. Would you mind telling me what you know?”

Yu Han, after all, wasn’t the first time encountering such a situation. She soon recovered from her embarrassment. With a faint smile, she looked at Elaine, whose face was flushed, and asked softly.

“Do you really want to know what kind of life Yufan had over the past year?”

Elaine’s delicate frame slightly trembled. A beautiful curve formed at the corner of her lips. Although she tried her best to remain calm when recalling the experiences of that year, she still felt the emotional pressure.

Yu Han hesitated for a moment, then nodded firmly. Her heart inexplicably skipped a beat, as if she had missed something important.

“Yufan accomplished in one year what others couldn’t achieve in ten, or even their entire lives. Can you imagine what kind of life he had? If you knew that he slept less in a whole month than you do in a single day, you’d understand that waiting for someone for a whole year isn’t that painful…”

Actually, Elaine wasn’t sure whether she should tell Yu Han all this. Yet she felt that letting Yu Han understand these facts might help her realize that Xiao Yufan wasn’t exactly as she imagined.

“Why has he never mentioned these things? I can feel that he’s truly changed. At least, he’s no longer so arrogant, and he now understands what responsibility means…”

Yu Han had never imagined the reality of Xiao Yufan’s experiences. In her mind, she had always thought his life must have been very comfortable. But she was wrong. In the end, she still didn’t truly understand the man who had captured her heart.

“Do you know why I confronted you that day? It wasn’t because of your rejection of me, but because of your misunderstanding of Yufan. During that year of trials, he always had your shadow in his heart. I understand this better than anyone!”

Recalling what had happened before, Elaine looked at Yu Han, whose expression subtly changed. She adjusted her hair, which had fallen over her shoulders, and spoke as if whispering yet also as if sharing a story…

“Maybe… I’m just not suited to be someone’s lover, nor do I understand him as much as I thought I did…”

Her smile now carried a hint of bitterness. Yu Han couldn’t even meet Elaine’s gaze. Both had experienced so much. She had felt numb and lost at times. She believed that fate wouldn’t easily take away someone who had come into her life. Yet she had still almost missed him.

“You just haven’t tried to truly step into his life. The reason Yufan didn’t want to tell you was definitely because he didn’t want to burden you with too many emotions. As long as you can stay by his side, that should be enough for him!”

Although Elaine couldn’t fully grasp Yu Han’s thoughts, she vaguely understood what Yu Han was thinking. So she could only smile and shake her head. How could feelings be clearly explained in just a few words?

“Fortunately, I still have more time to understand him, right?”

Her eyes now carried a determined gleam. Yu Han smiled, a complex emotion hidden in her smile. Her feelings for him were becoming even more intense.

Looking at each other and smiling, these two equally remarkable women both had only one person in their hearts. No woman would refuse a complete love, but once they had made their choice, some things could not be avoided.

Of course, Xiao Yufan was completely unaware of what was happening. Immersed in the tenderness of the moment, he was gradually releasing all the pent-up emotions inside him…
