However, this current situation was extremely ironic.

Su Wan rubbed her brows and quickly settled the rest.

On the anniversary of their wedding, the surprise that Jing Chen had prepared for Su Wan, as well as the anniversary gift that Su Wan had meticulously prepared for him, immediately shot up to the top of the trending topics. It occupied that position for the entire day and set off a hype to get married, reigniting the hope of many men and women who were afraid of marriage.

Requited love!!

These two words hung firmly on their heads. They were the first laymen to be in the first place on the sweetest couple’s list in many years. Neither of them was a celebrity.

This year, Su Wan was not interested in what they had prepared.

She lost all interest.

But she still forced herself to focus.

As if they were telepathic, Jing Chen kept a low profile this year. Firstly, his assistant sent her the gifts that he had prepared for her. It was always Jing Chen who sent them personally in the past years.

…

Su Wan hid her sorrow and hastily opened it. It was a bunch of keys.

Jing Chen glanced at her expression and said calmly, “This is a bungalow and a car. I’m giving it to you. At the very least, your future life will be assured.”

Su Wan glanced at it and put it aside. She nodded her head in thanks. “Thank you.”

They were polite and distant.

Feelings are indeed that amazing. In a short period of time, the distance between the two of them seemed to have widened.

“Be more enthusiastic. We’re still husband and wife.”

Jing Chen could not help but feel frustrated.

“Which couple gives each other the assurance for after divorce during their wedding anniversary? I’m not like you, I don’t put on a front in front of others.”

Acting was acting. She did not want to squeeze herself dry 24 / 7.

In the face of Su Wan’s blatant ridicule, Jing Chen didn’t care at all.

He looked at the scenery outside the window and swept past them one by one. Suddenly, he raised an unexpected conversation. “What’s the person you like, like?”

“Huh?”

Su Wan looked at him curiously and in confusion.

“Didn’t you say that you’ve liked him for eight years?”

Jing Chen continued to ask.

Su Wan pursed her lips and rubbed her temples. She smiled bitterly and said, “It’s been ten years since then. He’s a very, very good person. In my opinion, every aspect of him is good. But recently, I suddenly feel like he’s unfamiliar. He’s changed, but there’s nothing I can do about it.”

Jing Chen’s temples throbbed. “You are still in contact with him?”

“That’s right. We’ve been keeping in touch.” Su Wan suddenly became self-righteous as she looked straight at him with infatuation in her eyes.

Jing Chen was about to blurt out his accusations, but when he thought of the contract between them, he suddenly stopped himself. He could not shoot himself in the foot.

“That’s good. You can go look for him after the divorce. Your ex-husband will give you a dowry that’s worth a lot.”

Su Wan laughed self-deprecatingly. “His beloved girl is back. It’s his first love. They’re about to get married. It’s a pity that I don’t have the fortune to enjoy your dowry.”

As she spoke, she felt a sudden pain in her heart. Logically speaking, she should have gotten everything, but the reality was that she had nothing. She held onto the thing that she had been longing for for two years and finally realized that it wasn’t hers at all. It was a relationship that she couldn’t get even if she tried hard.

“That’s a shame.”

“It’s not a shame. I’m the one who loves him but can’t have him, not him. I don’t think it’s a shame.”

Su Wan stared at Jing Chen without blinking, making Jing Chen feel as if the person she was talking about was him.

“Don’t wait for someone without hope. It’s good to try to like someone else.”

“I think so too.”

Su Wan smiled lightly. She looked away from Jing Chen and looked out of the window.

Jing Chen looked at her thoughtfully. Was everything so coincidental?

The first love of the person she liked came back too?

Eight years…

When they first got married, they had only known each other for three years. No matter what, the man she liked could not be him.

…

Unsurprisingly, the trending topic of their two-year anniversary soared to the top.

However, it was different from the past. The reactions to the trending topic this time were mixed. Some were satisfied, while others were worried. They felt that the quality of the two-year anniversary was not comparable to the one-year anniversary, and many netizens were unable to accept it.

The most shocking thing was that Su Wan did not prepare a gift for Jing Chen and was criticized for it!
