Rich Young Mistress: Young Master Xie’s Dearest Beloved Wife
chapter-1320

Hearing Xirong Ziye’s words, Bai Yaoyao was truly shocked. Her clear eyes widened as she stared at him, thinking that he might have said it wrongly.

However, judging from Xirong Ziye’s expression, she could tell that he was not making this up.

She knew that Xirong Ziye used to be very hungry for power. He was ambitious, and in order to become the president, he had put in so much effort.

Although Xirong Ziye didn’t treat her well, she had to admit that he made a great president.

He possessed charisma and cared for his citizens, and all the policies and measures that he adopted were for their sake. That was why no matter how much she hated him, she couldn’t deny that he was capable.

If Xirong Ziye were to continue being their president, Country E could prosper. If he were to step down, it would definitely be a loss for the country.

While feeling shocked, Bai Yaoyao remained silent. She had never imagined that Xirong Ziye would say something like that.

Seeing Bai Yaoyao in disbelief, Xirong Ziye said resolutely, “Yaoyao, I meant what I said. Didn’t you want to go somewhere wonderful? I’ll quit being the president, then we’ll live together. I’ll go anywhere you want to. I’ll cook everything that you want to eat.”

Hearing those words, Bai Yaoyao felt rather moved deep down.

After remaining silent for a long time, she finally sighed. She replied slowly, “Xirong Ziye, it’s too late. It’s really too late.” It would have been great if he had treated her so well in the past. She would have been so moved and happy if she were to hear his words then.

However, she merely felt melancholic and emotional hearing those words now.

Upon hearing Bai Yaoyao’s answer, Xirong Ziye became frantic. He tightened his grip on Bai Yaoyao’s shoulders, gravely afraid that she’ll leave.

Xirong Ziye was scared that he wouldn’t be able to keep Bai Yaoyao by his side. “Yaoyao, it’s not too late. I’ll show you how I really feel. I know my words don’t mean much, but I’ll prove it to you through my actions.”

Hearing those words, Bai Yaoyao was anxious. “Xirong Ziye, I’ll only look down on you if you quit being the president.”

Bai Yaoyao knew how important Xirong Ziye was to Country E. If he were to abruptly quit his role, Country E would be thrown into a state of chaos. She couldn’t disregard the citizens’ lives for her own sake.

It was only after becoming a soldier that she understood that her job was to protect and defend the country. Having worked in the military for such a long time, this sense of responsibility had already been ingrained in her.

Naturally, she didn’t want Xirong Ziye to neglect the citizens by ditching his role.

Xirong Ziye finally heard that Bai Yaoyao cared about him, and the ache in his heart eased a little.

He chuckled, “Yaoyao, I’ll listen to everything that you say. I’ll continue being the president if you want me to.”

Looking at Xirong Ziye’s smile, Bai Yaoyao’s heart almost wavered. When she was young, his pure and bright smile was what had attracted her.

As a young man, he possessed a fresh image. Now, although he had already matured, his smile was still reminiscent of his younger days.

“Xirong Ziye, what I say doesn’t matter at all. We can merely be strangers. I have my own life to lead. Take care!”

Suddenly, her heart felt rather suffocated and dull. Thinking back on how he had treated her, she didn’t want to talk to him at all.

Those days filled with heartache had caused her sleepless nights, and even made her so desolate and suicidal.

As she recalled those painful memories, she began to push Xirong Ziye’s hands away. “Xirong Ziye, ever since you made up your mind, we shouldn’t have met again. I won’t ever forgive you too. I don’t despise you, it’s just that I don’t want to see you.”
