Sweet CEO's First Love

What if the most important words you wanted to hear were finally said to you? Will You Marry Me? But what if those words were exactly what made you break? Zhēng Yù has been in love with Ēn Chén for eight years and friends for twenty, but it takes Ēn Chén breaking his heart and humiliating him to realize that sometimes it's best to let go. All his life he loved someone he could never have, and it takes living life every day without him to see he can live without having his heart. But just when he finally feels like he can be happy again and his life is adding up, he never thought that Ēn Chén would show up. Especially not on their tenth anniversary of that horrible day, and certainly not asking to start over. He never knew how much the happiest words in the world could make someone hurt. And Zhēng Yù wasn't sure he could ever say yes to Will you marry me, ever again.

Chapter 9: Let's start over

Ēn Chén's heart raced as he followed Zhēng Yù into the stairwell. The surprise of seeing him after all these years was overwhelming. A wave of happiness washed over him, but it was accompanied by a pang of apprehension. He could see the shock in Zhēng Yù's eyes, and Ēn Chén was keenly aware that their last meeting had been far from pleasant.

"Zhēng Yù," he called softly, using the old nickname he hadn't uttered in years. It slipped out naturally, a habit that hadn't faded despite the time apart. He saw Zhēng Yù visibly flinch as if the name held a weight he wasn't ready to bear.

"Ēn Chén, don't," Zhēng Yù protested, his voice strained. He made a move to leave, but Ēn Chén stepped closer, his expression soft and pleading.
