I Had Enough! Let's Break Up - Chapter 1 I Don't Deserve You, Let's Break Up

During a night with clear skies and glowing stars, in Guangzhou’s Canton Tower, was an unexpectedly calm Lin ShouJie looking at the beautiful scenery outside of the window.

Across the dining table sat a girl with a pretty face.

Her name was Xu MengMeng, a 19 years old girl who was dressed in a refined, dignified way.

Just like today, she had a pale face with slight makeup, a pair of clear eyes, and a slim yet alluring figure. She was wearing a lace dress, of which had the color of a pink-white mix.

Beneath her skirt, she wore white leggings with a butterfly-shaped bow. Her small, delicate feet were tucked in light pink high heels.

Any boy would think, I wish I could become her boyfriend, when they see her.

Lin ShouJie, too, thought that at first.

But, of the second year of dating her, he no longer thought that way.

And as of now, they have been dating for five years.

Five years, five whole years; it was now finally over.

Thinking of this, Lin ShouJie’s usually calm heart couldn’t help but begin to race.

“ShouJie, ShouJie, I’ve just heard about some drama! Do you want to hear about it?”

Finally lifting her head after fiddling with her phone from the start of the date and not bothering to chat with him while eating, Xu MengMeng finally lifted her head up to ask that.
“Yeah, go ahead, I’m listening.” Lin ShouJie gave a light smile.

He used to never smile like this; it should be more relaxed and it should not be forced, a refined arc to every detail.

The culprit: Xu MengMeng. Since she thought that this type of smile was attractive, she gradually made his smile the way it is.

“My best friend Huang had a fight with her boyfriend again. Her boyfriend is so disgusting, doesn’t do much and just lays around, doesn’t know how to treat a girl right; she was literally on her period and he only knew to let her drink warm water.”

“Every time there is a holiday, he wouldn’t prepare a valuable present for her; there are no surprises in her life. I don’t even know why she liked him in the first place.”

As she said this, Xu MengMeng put on a disgusted face.

“Oh, so her…”

Lin ShouJie has an impression of this Huang person. She was a pretty good girl and fit with her boyfriend, as both were the generous type.

Even if there was a fight between them, they would soon forgive each other.

But one day, Huang was feeling a little down. She decided to talk with Xu MengMeng at midnight about romance.

And after that, her thought process was altered drastically. She had more fights with her boyfriend, wondering what about him even attracted her in the first place.

It shouldn’t have been like this; it was mainly because Xu MengMeng was bragging about her boyfriend, Lin ShouJie.

And in romance, comparing couples was a poison; even love as sturdy as gold was futile.

Hearing this, Lin ShouJie felt bad for her. However, he couldn’t do anything, as it was his plan that he had planned for over a year: it was also time to end this painful past.

So, even if others were hurt in the process, he wouldn’t stop.

Furthermore, this wasn’t his problem. He was only the key to the Pandora’s Box of Huang’s heart.

“Those two still haven’t broken up yet?”

Taking on Xu MengMeng’s glance, Lin ShouJie perfectly presented himself as a good listener.

Xu MengMeng shook her head and remarked, “Haa…I should have stopped her from s*x before marriage, but she wouldn’t listen. Now, she’s regretting it.”

S*x before marriage?

Thinking back, after dating for so long, all he and Xu MengMeng had was a kiss, the light-tap-of-the-lips type.

It wasn’t that Lin ShouJie wanted to do some further stuff, but…Why did it feel like every time they did something intimate… it felt like Xu MengMeng was patronizingly giving him a reward?

He didn’t understand.

He no longer needed to understand.

Xu MengMeng was just that type of person.

Speaking of it, she always took pride in her figure, always telling Lin ShouJie, Look at your girlfriend’s chest, it’s an f-cup! An f-cup at 18!

Though, when all’s said and done, she wouldn’t let him touch it.

“Oh yeah, you wouldn’t blame me for doing this to you right?”

Her voice disrupted his reminiscence.

Upon hearing this question, he thought it seemed to be a confirmation, yet it was filled with hidden word traps. He shone a flawless smile.

“Of course not. I’m in full support of your decision. Plus, I think Auntie thinks so too.”

As they had grown up together, their families have known each other for a long time.

“That’s great! ShouJie, I think that in this past year you have changed so much, you have become more understanding of me, I really only think that only you could understand me in this world, we would continue like this right?”

Continue like this?

Yeah, it was time to end.

Lin ShouJie gave the usual smile.

It was Xu MengMeng’s favorite smile, and she had him practiced in the mirror many times and took many pictures of it.

But Lin ShouJie felt it was his most twisted smile.

But today, he smiled very happily, very naturally, and very refreshed.

“How could it? MengMeng, you will meet better men in the future. I don’t deserve you, so…let’s break up.”

With that, time seemed to have frozen.

“Eh?”

Xu MengMeng’s eyes widened, her eyes clear as water was filled with confusion.

A second later, she seemed to have processed what he had said, and her face became uneasy, and her voice rushed: “Y-You’re messing with me…right?”

“I’m very serious, and thought deeply about it, so…if there is nothing else, I’ll be taking my leave.”

“Oh yeah, I already paid for the meal, I won’t go back tonight either, so you should head back early.”

“As for if you want to continue to live there, or pack up and go home, that’s up to you, since I wouldn’t be going back there ever, until you leave.”

“That’s it, goodbye.”

He had originally thought that it would have been more emotional or desperate from the bottom of his heart.

But what Lin ShouJie found out was that, except for the fact that his heart was beating a little faster, nothing else changed…

Habit…It really is a terrifying thing…

“Wait! Stop! Come back!” Phrases such as those would not come.

Because this was a high-level restaurant, and someone like Xu MengMeng, who paid a lot of attention to small details and cared about her reputation, wouldn’t do such a thing.

She would probably be yelling in her mind? Or wait and find a place with nobody and continuously call him? …Lin ShouJie couldn’t help but smile.

He didn’t turn his head back, he left very normally and simply.

At that moment, going past the hallway, looking out the scenery from the window, Lin ShouJie suddenly thought…

The place he had lived for so many years…It was so beautiful…And so bright…

He was, finally, free.
