Meeting You Was Fate

Chapter 750 I Won't Leave

"Doctor Ouyang, I didn't know you like to run in the morning." Eve took off her sunglasses and put it on the collar of her blouse. She looked at Doctor Ouyang with an indifferent expression on her face.

The doctor briefly looked at the sunglasses hanging on Eve's neckline. The pair was one of MK's most popular styles this autumn. It was actually one of Elizabeth's favorite brands.

"Running has become my habit. If I don't run for even a day, I'll feel really uncomfortable." Ouyang took off his headphones, turned off the music on his phone, and began to talk to Eve. Suddenly, he looked really focused.

"Do you also run during rainy days?"

"When it's raining, I run on the treadmill," Ouyang casually replied. Eve didn't know it, but he was suddenly recalling some unbearable parts of his past.

Back in college, Ouyang was a quite big-boned, so he was often laughed at by his classmates. Everyone called him names. Not a day went by that they didn't make fun of his appearance. He remembered it very clearly that Elizabeth liked men who had an eight pack abs. For some reason, it gave people a sense of security, so he tried his best to lose weight.

A vast majority of people would always say that they wanted to lose weight, but all they would usually do was talk and think about it. They didn't do anything about it. After all, the most difficult thing when trying to lose weight was to stay committed. For more than half a year, Ouyang exercised day after day. He also worked really hard to develop some muscles and most especially the eight pack abs because Elizabeth liked it in a man.

However, after Ouyang had plastic surgery, and he finally became conventionally attractive, Elizabeth was already with another man. He did not know about it until it was already too late. It was for this reason that it had been a long time since he knew something about love. Often times, when a person is

single, they had a lot of requirements for the one they were looking for. But when you meet that one person, all of those conditions would just vanish into thin air. This was what happened to the doctor once upon a time.

"Habits can sometimes be a terrible thing. Sometimes, people get so caught up in what they're used to that they became so stubborn. Even when everyone around them kept telling them they were wrong, and even in their hearts, they knew what's right, they'd still stay with what's comfortable. Because it's safe and whether we admit it or not, we're always looking for some stability in our lives." Putting her hands in her pockets, Eve thought for a while. A faint smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.

Ouyang sneered. However, it was not directed at Eve, but to himself. Because he knew that what she said was right.

When you got used to loving someone, it was really difficult to fall out of love and look at others. Even if you found someone else, you would always have this thought that it was not the same.

Eve knew that it was wrong to fall in love with Nathan, but she couldn't help herself. The world was so huge. There were billions of people, and yet she didn't want anyone else. Her stubbornness might hurt a lot of people, including her, but she didn't care about it anymore. The two things in life that would make her the happiest were to find a job that she loved and to find a man who she loved. In fact, it had come to the point that she didn't want to put up with living this way for the rest of her life. She, too, was getting tired of it all.

"What if you take one more step forward, and there is nothing but a cliff in front of you?" Ouyang smiled and looked up at Eve with his eyelids dropping a little.

"Then I'm going to take my rival in love, and together, we'll jump off the cliff. I'll be dead anyway so I won't get the love that I want. This way, she won't get that love either."

While listening to her, Ouyang's eyes widened in shock. He looked like he was a little scared. He didn't expect that Eve would have such dangerous thoughts. Looking at her, he firmly asked, "Is that necessary?"

"If I'm not mistaken, there must be someone in your heart, too, Doctor Ouyang."

Ouyang smiled without saying a word. In fact, his silence meant acquiescence.

"And that's it? Don't you want to have the woman you love?"

"Of course, I want to. But in the end, if she still doesn't love me, I think I'll eventually let her go. But this doesn't mean I'd be fine with losing her. It doesn't mean I'd lose all of my feelings for her as well," Ouyang said with a bittersweet smile. He sounded like a man who had actually experienced what he was talking about.

"People always say that a melon won't be sweet if you twist it by force before it could naturally ripen. But I don't think the reason why I want to twist it is to eat it, nor do I want to know whether it's sweet or not. As long as I can have it in my hands, I'll be happy," Eve said with a determined smile. A gust of wind blew up the corner of her dress, making her figure somewhat misty.

"Miss Su, you came to me in this very day not to unscrupulously talk about melons, am I right?" Ouyang looked at his watch. The sun was about to come out soon. It would become uncomfortably hot if he were to continue running. He actually used to run at night, so he didn't like to run under the sun.

Hearing the question, a smile quickly made its way onto Eve's lips. Shee looked at Ouyang with her beautiful eyes and said, "You're right, I didn't come here to talk about melons. My father indeed came to my apartment last night, probably because Nathan said something to him. He was very enraged because he knew what happened between us. But as far as I'm concerned, they don't know what we have done yet. We are in a really tense situation now. If you want to go abroad to take a vacation or go somewhere in the country to avoid arousing suspicion, I'll pay for all the expenses."

Ouyang sarcastically smiled on the inside and quietly said to himself, 'Eve is very generous.'

However, Ouyang didn't want to leave City A. Most people admire foreign countries. Some even made it their life-long goal to migrate. But he had been abroad for so many years and had a hard time adapting to any country that he had been in. It was better for him to stay in City A.

"I have something to deal with. I'm afraid I can't leave for the time being." Ouyang refused Eve's request with determination. He had made up his mind to stay because he recently found a reason to do so. Since Mandy was in the city and Elizabeth was her university tutor, he believed that Elizabeth would come to City A. If he left now, didn't it mean that he would never see his beloved again?

"But this is a crucial time. If you continue to stay here, it will have a great impact on my life."

"Miss Su, don't you think it's ridiculous for you to say that? I'm just living my life, how can it affect yours? If you don't want me to work for you anymore, it's fine. I won't study the bacteria anymore, but I like it here. Moreover, I don't have any reason to leave," Ouyang firmly said while he narrowed his eyes. He looked pretty serious.

"Nathan came to see you a few days ago, didn't he?" Eve's frown was so deep by this point. She had heard it from the bodyguards of the Ouyang Family, who happened to be her men as well.

When Serge came to see Ouyang, Eve was not alarmed. But she was disturbed by Shaun last night, and she suddenly felt that things were not going well.

"Yes, but he didn't find anything," Ouyang calmly said while staring at the sun, which looked to be rising from the river.

There was a very weak glow in the eastern sky. The sun was about to come out any minute.

Ouyang did not want to waste more time with Eve. His morning run was not over yet.

"He didn't find anything suspicious last time, but that doesn't mean he won't find anything next time. In any case, you must leave the city." The expression on Eve's pretty face looked rather tensed. Frustration could be seen on it as well. She did not expect that Ouyang would be so firm in turning down what she wanted from him.

"I've already told you that I have something to do here. I won't leave." Ouyang refused to budge at all. For him, it was not up for discussion. He was going to stay in City A, whether she liked it or not.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
