Chapter 4762 Never Too Late to Love (169)

"Jing Yang, remember what you're saying. I'll pay you back what I owe you, but you have to pay me back what you owe me."
Jing Yang was also stunned. He did not expect Mu Yueyao to be standing outside the door, much less, overhear their conversation. For a moment, he went into a daze.
Mu Yueyao, who was now standing before him, looked extremely haggard and frail. To everyone, she had always been like a beautiful and noble princess. Now, bare-faced, she could not hide her sickly haggardness.
He did not know that she had not eaten for two whole days. Her eyes were bloodshot, as if she had cried. For a moment, his heart ached.
Mu Yichen held his forehead helplessly. He had intended to come alone and did not want her to be there. However, she insisted on following him. He had no choice but to have her wait outside the door. He hadn't expected Jing Yang to say such ruthless words.
Jing Yang silently glared at Mu Yueyao. Mu Yueyao didn't say anything and just stared back at him, but there was an indescribable disappointment in her eyes.
She had expected to hear many cruel words from Jing Yang, but she did not expect him to be so eager to draw a line between them. She thought about how the girl beside him had held his arm so intimately last night. She guessed they must have been together all night? What exactly happened between the two of them?! Mu Yueyao didn't dare to think about it.
"Let our relationship end here! Other than what's outstanding, we don't owe each other anything!" As Mu Yueyao spoke, she suddenly raised her hand and took off a ring on her ring finger. She pretended to be nonchalant and threw it on the ground.
It was a rose gold ring that Jing Yang had bought at a store. It wasn't very expensive.
When they were young, she often stuck close to Jing Yang. The two of them could be considered childhood sweethearts. Whether it was the Mu family or Jing Yang's mother, they were certain that the two would get married when they grew up.
At that time, the two little guys were too close. Other than Mu Yichen and Yun Tianyou, only Jing Yang could tolerate her tantrums.
One Christmas when they were in junior high school, Jing Yang had bought a rose-gold ring with the money he earned from his part-time job. With that ring, he made a vow with her.
He said to her, "Yueyao, this is my engagement ring to you. When I grow up, I'll marry you and make you Mrs. Jing, okay?"
At that time, there was no such thing as puppy love for the two naive teenagers. However, both of them had too many fantasies about their future.
Mu Yueyao had been doted on since she was young. She was the youngest daughter of the Mu family and also the only daughter. She was the princess. Jing Yang, on the other hand, did not come from a wealthy family background like hers, but the Mu family took special care of him.
Jing Yang's mother didn't remarry. It wasn't easy for her to raise Jing Yang alone. Initially, she had planned to take the child back to the countryside. The cost of living in the capital city was too high. However, how could Mu Yueyao bear to let Jing Yang leave just like that?
Hence, Yun Shishi proposed to bear his living expenses and tuition fees. Only then did Jing Yang and his mother officially established their lives in the capital.
However, their happiness was completely shattered by an accident. After that accident, other than love, Jing Yang also hated Mu Yueyao.
In the first place, this accident should not have happened! For the first time in his life, he hated her willfulness!
