Rich Young Mistress: Young Master Xie’s Dearest Beloved Wife
chapter-1223

Xirong Ziye answered all the questions from the reporters seriously, and in the same tone, he also asked for forgiveness.

He knew that Bai Yaoyao might see this when she watched TV, and that was what he hoped for. If she was willing to forgive him, would she come back?

Even if there was only a glimpse of hope, he would still have to try.

Xirong Ziye did not discuss with the other major political officials before deciding to hold the press conference this time. He did not care about the kind of effect that would be caused by the press conference either.

In his eyes, he had pursued such a high position, and his ambition had supported him thus far. He only understood what mattered the most in the end.

Hence, he hoped that everything was still not too late.

“Mr. President, we never knew you were such a devoted person.”

“I don’t deserve your praise!”

Xirong Ziye was not exasperated at all when faced with the questions from the reporters. Even if the questions were hard-pressed, he would still answer them patiently.

As time went by, even if people wanted to deliberately make things hard for him, they felt a little bad to do so. After all, he was their noble and admirable Mr. President. If he could admit his mistakes openly and seriously try to win back the person he loves, everyone admired him at this moment, no matter what he did to hurt that lady in the past.

Especially with the sadness in Xirong Ziye’s eyes, it did not look like he was faking it either.

Some people felt that that lady should not forgive Xirong Ziye. Some felt that the President was worth forgiving since he personally owned up to his mistakes and sought forgiveness.

The reporters split into two camps and started arguing with each other.

Xirong Ziye smiled bitterly at the scene before him. “Thank you, everyone. I opened this press conference because I want the person I love to be able to see this. Even if she doesn’t want to forgive me, at least she can still see this. I will wait for her.”

“Mr. President, what about the relationship between you and Miss Xiamu?”

“We were once arranged to get married. However, I realized afterwards that I had someone else in my heart. I don’t want to hurt another innocent party…”

…

Bai Yaoyao was sitting in front of the TV, watching it out of boredom. However, this scene suddenly played out on the international news channel.

She thought that she had seen it wrongly. When she looked carefully, she confirmed that it was Xirong Ziye.

Her hand that was holding on to the remote trembled. She wanted to change the channel at first, but she could not look away and continued watching.

She heard every word he spoke, hearing him asking for forgiveness and saying that she was the person he loved.

Bai Yaoyao’s heart shuddered as she heard that. Many memories of the past came to her mind. Her nose twitched as tears started streaming down her eyes.

Bai Yaoyao immediately wiped away the tears in her eyes with the back of her hand and continued watching.

Why? Why did she have to see this just when she was about to forget him?

She thought that Xirong Ziye was living happily, but he was talking about his pain and wrongs on live TV.

Could words of forgiveness and love really erase everything?

To Bai Yaoyao, it would not.

However, since they had been together once, it was not possible for her to remain unmoved after hearing all these.

Eventually, Bai Yaoyao hardened her heart and turned off the TV. She did not want to know more about Xirong Ziye’s matters. They should lead their own lives now.

She did not want to remember all the pain in her past.

Bai Yaoyao sat on the sofa and tried her best to calm herself down.

When Duan Yanhao came back, he saw Bai Yaoyao sitting on the sofa, not saying anything at all. He walked over a little worriedly and leaned down to look at her expression.

Tucking her hair gently behind her ear, he asked, “What’s wrong? I only went out for a short while. Are you angry with me?”
