Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander novel Chapter 539

Chapter 539: Chapter 567: It’s Good to Talk It Out

Sun Chan’s expression was calm, revealing no thoughts.

Han Dong said, "Are you angry? Or do you want to break ties with me?"

Sun Chan calmly smiled and said, "Why would I be angry? I’ve discussed this with Gu Junming before. I already guessed it was you who did it. I’m too thankful to you, but since you won’t admit it, I can’t properly thank you."

Han Dong breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "I once thought you might not like it, after all, that was your sister..."

"That was someone who hurt me. You’re my forever friend. I won’t take Fang Guanghui’s words to heart either. You don’t need to avoid me because of what he said."

"I’m not avoiding you because of that. Sun Chan, I don’t just want to be your friend." Han Dong seriously said to her, "I want to be your family, your soulmate, and a person who can protect you for life. Although these are not things I can do, I still want to do them." His complex feelings for Sun Chan suddenly didn’t want to be hidden anymore; when that scoundrel cursed him earlier, he wanted to leave Sun Chan, stay far away.

He didn’t want to tell Sun Chan or let her understand his feelings, as he was already unable to suppress his inner restlessness and unease.

Liking someone wholeheartedly, without letting her find out, without asking for anything, without starting, without ending—such emotions are too difficult and exhausting.

Sun Chan was stunned, not expecting Han Dong to say this.

Han Dong suddenly turned and scratched his head, "I didn’t want to tell you; it was you who kept pressing me, so I said it. If you care about this, we can stop seeing each other!"

Sun Chan smiled and said, "Do you think I’m that pretentious? You and Gu Junming have known each other for so many years. It’s a pity that because of me, you two can’t meet. I’m happy to be good friends with you, which is nice, and you’re also my boss. Not speaking up wouldn’t be good. I still want to earn money. I really love money; I won’t let the God of Wealth disappear from my life."

Han Dong laughed, "Are you only keeping in touch with me to make money? Then I’ll be sad."

Sun Chan laughed, "Of course not. I truly care about you as a friend. You’re really good to me, very considerate, and I’m truly grateful. I’m not sure how to say it; I genuinely hope you’re happy and that you find someone you truly like and live a good life. Do you think I’m being insincere?"

Han Dong looked at Sun Chan for a while and then smiled, "I understand what you mean. Unfortunately, I still have to leave. Don’t misunderstand; it’s not because of you. I won’t be developing locally for long. I already have a cooperative agreement with Wu Dafu. I’ll go to the provincial city to do business, leaving the market here to Wu Dafu. My ambitions are far-reaching, X City can’t hold me. First the provincial city, then the main city, and finally, I’ll have chain stores all over the country."

"When?"

"Next year, maybe. The exact time isn’t set yet, but I don’t want to stay here anymore."

Sun Chan looked at Han Dong with surprise. She knew Han Dong would leave eventually, but she didn’t expect him to leave so soon. Besides offering blessings, she probably couldn’t do much else. There was a faint feeling of melancholy. But people will separate sooner or later; she should be used to it.

Sun Chan hesitated for a moment but still said, "Han Dong, I’ve understood your feelings for me over the years; thank you. By nature, I’m not someone with high ambitions, but because of meeting you, I’ve been able to develop, thank you." Without Han Dong, she might still be someone thrilled with earning a bit of money, working a dead-end job, handling household affairs as an average woman.

But he gave Sun Chan the chance to develop her strengths; her designed clothes wouldn’t have won awards or sold out of town.
