In the silent, dark, and cold study, Qu Wan and Ling Yuqings voices stuck out like a sore thumb. They were filled with mockery and disdain. Their voices were like countless pins stabbing themselves into Ruan Zeyans heart.
It was not lethal, but the pain was unbearable...
On Hu Xin Island, she pleaded to talk it out, she said that she was forced. He didnt give her any chance to speak up for herself. He had merely crazily and violently ravaging her. He thought that she was just a money-grubber, and that she would do anything for money. He said that she was just worth being a bed-warmer, he said that she was disgusting...
The desire to explain herself had dimmed in her eyes then, not willing to spare him even another look.
She had said, Ruan Zeyan, if you believed in me, I wouldnt have to explain anything!
She had said, You dont trust me at all, and even now you say that you forgive me!
She had said, I have my own reasons for coming back to China, and there are many things I have to accomplish. Amongst all of it, Ruan Zeyan, youre not a part of any of it.
Six years ago, hed lost his closest buddy, gotten heavily injured, and his entire world view had collapsed after knowing that she had gotten engaged with another man. He was in a coma for one entire month, and when he woke up again, she had already left.
Rumors said that she had eloped with a boy toy with the Li familys dowry. What a ridiculous claim, and yet he believed it wholeheartedly. It wasnt until recently that he really realized that it was just a misunderstanding.
So what? She still had betrayed him, she still had gotten herself engaged to another man when he was fighting with his family to stay with her.
Those six years he hadnt had it easy. Hed thought of all women as his enemy because of her.
He had wanted to get her back countless times and torture her harshly. He wanted to ask her why she had done it?
In reality, he did do it, but he also pushed her far beyond his reach.
She didnt have a good time those few years either. She really did have her own predicaments...
Ruan Zeyan stared at the floor, the entire study was blanketed in a suffocating darkness.
Du Gang quietly left the room, he knew that his boss must be feeling horrible right then. After all, who could be sure about the things of the heart?
The hospital room was dark, Zhang Ke was nowhere to be found when she woke up. She wanted something to drink, and she propped herself up to sit upright. As she was about to reach out, a cup of water was brought before her.
That was when Ling Tianya realized with a start that there was someone in the room, and that someone was not Zhang Ke.
Even in the pitch black room, Ling Tianya could recognize Ruan Zeyans face. The gentle moonlight streamed in through the gaps, the mans shadow drew a silhouette on the wall by their side. His face was as gentle as the moons glow, so gentle that it bewildered Ling Tianya. It was as though theyd travelled back to six years ago.
Ruan Zeyan propped Ling Tianya up before pa.s.sing her the gla.s.s of water.
At the first touch of his cold hands, Ling Tianya woke from her daze. It wasnt six years ago.
What are you doing here?
He observed as Ling Tianyas expression started out dazed and relaxed, before morphing into a carefully controlled neutrality. He pinched his lips together, his heart burning with an indescribable pain, Ling Tianya, I know you have your reasons for coming back to China. Use me as you please, Im more than willing to be your blade.
Ling Tianya paused, before laughing bitingly, Ruan Zeyan, dont you think its too late to be saying all this?
No. Ruan Zeyan took out an invitation card, placing it before her, Two days from now, the Yuan Teng Corporation is holding our annual dinner. I will prove to you that its not too late.
Finis.h.i.+ng, Ruan Zeyans face switched back to the same detachment that he had always had. He left without taking a single look back.
Du Gang stood at the door, seeing Ruan Zeyans constipated looking face as he came out. He sighed. Ah, he didnt successfully pacify his girlfriend.
