Chapter 1038: A Joke (9) Translator: Paperplane Editor: Caron_

“…So Wanwan, give me another chance and let us start again, please?”

Han Zhifan’s final question made Cheng Weiwan blink softly and snap back to reality.

In the face of Han Zhifan’s look of anticipation, she didn’t say anything. Instead, she turned around and walked over to the sofa nearby.

Han Zhifan furrowed his eyes slightly as a hint of confusion flashed across his face.

Soon enough, he saw Cheng Weiwan picking up her bag from the sofa, pulling out a white bottle of pills, taking out a few, and putting them into her mouth.

He knew those were antidepressants.

Why did she suddenly take her medicine when I’m speaking to her?

“Wanwan?” cried Han Zhifan, who couldn’t help but ask.

When Cheng Weiwan heard his voice, she turned her head and looked over at him.

She looked at him for a while then gently blinked and mumbled something.

Despite her very quiet voice, Han Zhifan could still clearly hear what she said.

She said, “So I wasn’t hallucinating…

It was like a knife had viciously stabbed Han Zhifan’s heart. The pain made Han Zhifan’s body sway for a moment.

I said so much to her just now, but she actually thought it was a hallucination caused by her illness… To have that kind of reaction, just how much did she not believe what I said?

Han Zhifan couldn’t help but turn his head away and softly reply, “Wanwan, I’m sorry.”

Sorry… The dullest, most powerless word in the word.

But at that very moment, Han Zhifan really didn’t know what he could say aside from this word.

Cheng Weiwan didn’t speak.

It seemed like she was staring at Han Zhifan, and it also looked like she was staring at an empty spot with a slightly dazed look in her eyes.

In her mind, she thought about everything Han Zhifan said from start to end.

He said he loved her and he was sincere. He said he wanted to start over with her again and that he wanted her to give him one more chance – just one. He even said he would treat her really well from now on… He even said “Sorry” to her.

Sorry… When he abandoned her two years ago, she thought about how he normally treated her really well when they were together, so how could he say he didn’t want her just like that? Was he messing with her? Would he apologize to her the next day? Even if he really wanted to apologize, she definitely wouldn’t forgive him… Even though that’s what she thought, her past self would let bygones be bygones if he apologized and got back together with her. She would’ve pretended that nothing happened and be with him again.

But she waited day after day, yet he didn’t come to see her. In the end, he was even cold and merciless to her in her dreams.

Later on, she couldn’t wait any longer. She finally stopped waiting and gave up a long, long time ago. He was apologizing to her now, but she… she no longer believed him.

Yeah. She didn’t dare… She really lost all confidence and didn’t dare to believe him.

Who could say what the truth was? Maybe he was just using a new method to torture her all over again.

So she couldn’t believe what he said ever again; she would treat it as though nothing happened. As long as she didn’t look forward to anything in this world, she wouldn’t get upset.

He didn’t say anything else, nor did she hear anything.

I should get out of bed, eat breakfast, and check on Hanhan…
