Chapter 2544: Have you ever been romantically interested in me?

Feeling desperate, she blurted out, "But I've never forgotten about you!"

The man merely responded with a smile. "That's different."

"How is it so?!" she pressed.

"Because I've forgotten about you."

His reply shocked her to silence, and her heart ached so badly that she was on the verge of suffocation.

Even though nothing could be more heartbreaking than to hear that from their beloved one, what he said next dealt her a bigger blow. "You have long stopped mattering to me ever since she appeared."

A deafening silence ensued thereafter.

As Rong Xuan wrung her hands in great distress, she bolstered her courage to ask, "Can I ask you something?"

"Hm?"

She carefully posed her question. "Have you ever been romantically interested in me?"

He quietly said, "What we felt for each other when we were young doesn't mean anything."

"Why not?!"

Does that mean he did like me?
