“What you heard is the truth, though.” The man was not the least bit evasive. “Last night was Ji Yan’s birthday party and I did cheat on you and did betray you. Well, it’s not just with her; when you were not in the country for a period of time, I was bored, so I dated several women. Although a few of them were just one-night stands and it didn’t develop in the long run, it’s still considered cheating; I guess.”

“Gao Nan…”

When Xiao Xue saw how quick her boyfriend was to admit his infidelity, her heart sank even further.

‘How much do you really know about the man whom you’re loving?

‘He doesn’t care about your feelings, so how will he care about you?’

Her best friend’s words reverberated in her ears.

She hung her head low in a daze, her heart aching to the point of suffocation.

So this is what it feels like to be hurt…

So this is how heartache feels like!

Back in her college days, when the girls in her cla.s.s fell out of love, they would call their friends over to KTV to hang out and get drunk. As they held the microphone in their hands, they blasted love songs while shedding tears. At that time, she had looked upon them with chagrin as she felt that they were quite pretentious.

Now, it was her turn to get hurt and her heart was aching. This was when she realized that it was not pretentious at all.

It was a desperation bordering on apocalyptic.

“Why are you doing this to me?!” she asked with her heart wrenching in pain. “Didn’t you say that you love me and me alone, and that I’m the only one in your heart?”

“D’you mean that you believe such nonsense?” The man did not seem to care about her suffering and even gave her a nasty laugh. Ignoring her sadness and despondency, his lips flared into a harsh sn.i.g.g.e.r. “Xiao Xue, I’m with you only because I a.s.signed you as my marriage partner. It’s just too difficult to find someone whom my family is happy with, and as it happens, you’re regarded as satisfactory by both my parents, so when they gave the nod, I naturally did not object. Anyway, I don’t have any special requirements for my wife. After all, it makes no difference whichever woman I marry, actually.”

“Are you really this heartless?!” She stood up abruptly and bombarded him angrily. “Don’t you have a heart? Won’t you even show sadness or remorse?! Didn’t you care at all how I would feel finding out about your deeds?! I didn’t ask you to reciprocate my love or require you to be with me. Since you don’t love me, you could’ve just come clean to me. I, Xiao Xue, won’t stalk any man; if there’s no love between us, I won’t chase after you or need you by my side. Aren’t you just playing with my feelings by doing this?!”

“Am fooling around?” The man laughed wickedly and put down the wine gla.s.s all of a sudden. He walked up to her slowly and stared down at her in condescension. “Toying with you? Are you sure that the person playing with feelings is me and not you?!”

“You…” The woman was so upset that her lips trembled, staring straight at him with suspicion. “What do you mean by that again?

“Don’t tell me that you don’t understand my words literally? As my girlfriend and a woman, don’t you have any basic awareness at all? Are you trying to portray an image of a virtuous woman of chast.i.ty? Is it so offensive to go to bed with me?!”

“What?!”

She was dumbfounded by his so-called reason.

What kind of reason is this?!

This man was actually more shameless than she had imagined!

Is this his true self?!
