<h4>Chapter 913: Return Shaoqian to Me</h4>


    This lovely woman looked nothing like her since she already looked like she was in her thirties.


    Lin Ziya gave her a small nod and did not deny the fact that she was Shaoqian’s ex-girlfriend. There was a small smile on her lovely face but her smile looked a little forced.


    “Why did youe looking for me? Do you want to get back with Jiahang?” He Xiyan said as she looked at Lin Ziya and there was a faint trace of annoyance in her voice.


    Women often had a sixth sense when it came to other women and so she knew what Lin Ziya wanted and she knew that this woman could definitely not forget about Jiahang. This was why she still remained at Ming City even though so many days had passed.


    Lin Ziya didn’t nod in reply this time but she took off the hat she was wearing to reveal a tidy head of curly hair.


    The smile was gone from her face when she next looked up at He Xiyan.


    “Chen Yan, I hope that you’d be able to return Shaoqian to me,” she said. She used the word ‘return’ because Shaoqian had always been hers. They were each other’s first loves and even pledged to live the rest of their lives together. Chen Yan was only a woman whom Shaoqian had purchased during the period that he had amnesia.


    He Xiyan smiled wryly and themplight captured the sh of surprise that crossed her face. She was surprised to hear this from Ziya and surprised that Ziya even asked her to return Shaoqian, as though she had snatched her boyfriend away.


    He Xiyan didn’t respond but she pursed her lips together into a bitter smile. This bitterness had already seeped into her heart as well.


    “Chen Yan, name your price. I’ll give you as much money as you want as long as you give up on Shaoqian,” Lin Ziya said agitatedly. She was a little flustered by Chen Yan’sck of response. All she wanted to know was how this woman felt.


    He Xiyan smiled ironically.


    “I don’tck money, Miss Lin,” she said calmly. She could earn her own keep and moreover, money was just a material good. What would she do with so much money anyway?


    Lin Ziya paused for a moment and there was a subtle change in her expression. She no longer looked as calm andposed as before but rather, she looked a little agitated and uneasy.


    “Chen Yan, Shaoqian doesn’t love you. The man who loved you was the fool who had lost his memories. That wasn’t Shaoqian and I’m sure you’re well aware of the fact,” Lin Ziya’s tone sharpened.


    She truly didn’t want to lose Shaoqian. She had loved him for more than a decade and had turned from a young girl to a 29-year-old woman. She had never loved anyone else other than Shaoqian.


    She cried for three days when the military announced that he was in on duty and she had never been able to heal from her grief until the day he came back to the Gu family.


    She had missed him every day since the day he died and would dream of him returning home alive. Never could she have imagined that he was truly well and alive but he had now given up on their rtionship to live with a girl who could notpare to her in any way.


    Lin Ziya suddenly started sobbing and her eyes were rimmed with tears.


    He Xiyan passed her a piece of tissue and she felt terribly upset as well as though her heart was being pricked by needles. She wasn’t upset because Lin Ziya had cried but rather, she knew that just as Lin Ziya said, Gu Shaoqian was not the man who had once loved her. The man who loved her was the foolish Jiahang from Mang Vige who only ever thought of her but this man would never return again.


    “Thank you...” Lin Ziya said as she epted the gesture of goodwill. She turned away and wiped the tears from her eyes.
