Before he finished talking, I kicked him right between his legs and watched him cry on the floor in agony. It was only then that I felt a little satisfied.
I turned straight to my room and ignored them.
But Quan Jinnian followed me and stopped me from closing the door.
As I was still a little preoccupied, I got nervous the moment I saw him.
Before I could close the door by force, he had already come into the room and locked the door before looking at me with an ambiguous smile, “You are expecting Quan Shaoze’s child, but he’s marrying someone else, don’t you have anything to say?”
Quan Jinnian showed an abominable smile, and his words seemed to pierce right through my heart and made my eyes sting.
I tried my best to hold back my tears and forced myself to shake my head indifferently without saying anything.
I was afraid that I would cry the moment I spoke.
I didn’t want Quan Jinnian to laugh at me and I would never cry in front of him.
Lin Feng, bear with it, don’t let him laugh at you.
But I had underestimated Quan Jinnian’s deviance. Receiving no reply from me, he simply grabbed my chin and looked at me with ferocious eyes, his face grim, “Don’t you want to ask him!”
With that, his lips were suddenly curved into an inexplicable smile.
My scalp turned numb, and I felt a chill run down my spine.
But in just a moment, I seemed affected by his words and was overwhelmed by enormous sadness.
Of course I wanted to ask him, and I had a lot more things to tell him!
But I knew that I had no chance to ask him, because Quan Jinnian wouldn’t let me leave.
After a long while, I finally forced myself to dismiss the thought of begging Quan Jinnian. I shook my head and said in a trembling voice, “I don’t want to.”
After I finished talking, I closed my eyes in despair and waited for Quan Jinnian to fly into a rage.
But he merely chuckled and caressed my face softly before whispering in my ear in a bewitching voice, “It’s okay, then do you want to know why they are getting married?”
Instead of feeling relieved because of his tenderness, I got more frightened instead and wanted to run away, but he grabbed me by the waist and held me down at where I was.
“No, I don’t.” I suppressed the great temptation inside me this time and bit my tongue until it felt numb. It was only until I tasted the blood in my mouth that I gave an answer that was against my conscience.
Although I looked calm, only I knew that my hands on the side were trembling uncontrollably.
My heart was also hurting badly.
Lin Feng, you must be really pathetic right now.
Quan Jinnian didn’t give up and grabbed my neck again, his face twisted, “How could you not want to know! You obviously love him!”
His words finally put me on the verge of collapse. I couldn’t bear with it anymore and my eyes turned red. I pushed Quan Jinnian away in desperation, and the vase beside us reflected my sad and empty eyes.
I wanted to know! How could I not want to know!?
I questioned myself madly inside. I had missed him hopelessly for so long, how could I not want to ask him the reason!
But I still chose to swallow the pain and tears in the end. I turned away without saying anything, and I could feel the tears in my eyes as I turned around.
Seeing the way that I was, Quan Jinnian finally smiled with satisfaction.
He curled his lips and lifted my chin before saying with precision, “Because they are of equal social status, and that woman is younger and more beautiful than you!”
His beautiful and cruel voice hit right at my soul, making me cold all over.
Finally, I couldn’t put up with it anymore and pushed his hand away in desperation, “That’s enough!” I shouted.
Tears rolled down my cheeks right away.
In the end, I was still a pathetic fool.
