She stared at him for a while. She loves him, she really does, but... "I'm sorry, Ning-ge. I just want to let you know my feelings for you for the last time... because this is where I will end it."
Xia Meilin held his hand and put it away. "Even if I love you, I still love my family more. I will not run away with you. I will not divorce my husband because of my feelings for you."
Feng Ning felt the heavens falling on his shoulders when he heard her words. "W-What are you saying? Didn't you say that you love me? You're lying right now. Stop lying to me, Meilin!"
Even if her eyes were blurry, she wiped her own tears away and looked at him straight in his eyes. "Am I?"
Her nose never twitched and because of this, Feng Ning was able to tell that she was really saying the truth.
"I love you... but I want to end this feeling because it's wrong... It is wrong to love another man when I already have a man waiting for me at home. I am admitting my feelings for you since I want to let you know that I have loved you once. I am letting this feeling go now. I am married, Ning-ge. I know that it will be hard for us to stop our feelings for each other but let's do this. My family is more important than you. I love them more than you, so I can't be with you."
Xia Meilin already decided this last night. She knows that she already started opening up to Lu Yifeng, if not, why would she allow him to kiss her? She knows that Lu Yifeng has feelings for her and by allowing him to kiss her, she was giving him hope. Xia Meilin already told Lu Yifeng the other night that, she will not close her heart to him. She will give him a chance... but if Feng Ning was here, how can she give him a chance? She needs to give her feelings some closure.
The man she married to is to Lu Yifeng. She wants Little Melon to have one happy family and because of her son, she was willing to give him this. Xia Meilin was willing to make his dream come true. She will do anything for her son... that's why she has given Lu Yifeng a chance.
Her words were always straight to the point whenever she tries to explain things. She still knows how to differentiate the right from wrong. Because of this, her words were always like a sword for others. "I hope that you will respect my decision. It's better if... we don't meet each other. I don't want my husband to misunderstand. Since I am now a married woman, I can only grow feelings for my husband."
