Chapter 1601: Chapter 1601: None of Your Business
But no matter how well he pretended, his heart was trembling! In shock! In pain! In sorrow!
Hearing her relentless and emotionless words, she didn’t explicitly say it, but he clearly understood that every word she uttered was directed at him, coldly informing him that she rejected their engagement.
And those words saying they wouldn’t marry for ten years were an utter break, clearly expressing that she would never marry him!
She was so resolute, casually severing their future.
At that moment, a heart-piercing pain struck his heart, shattering it into shards soaked in blood.
The pain was unbearable, like hellfire burning in his chest, consuming his soul.
Even amidst such agony, he still didn’t understand what he had done wrong, to earn such hatred from her, as though sentenced to the lowest depths of hell, never to rise again.
Ji Lingkong unconsciously clenched the wine glass in his hand, a glint of determination alongside the grief in his eyes.
...
After Jun Yiyi rushed upstairs, she started packing clothes, only casually packing a few items and some essentials for the journey.
Tonight’s decision, she reminded herself not to regret, while just a moment ago she had wielded the knife to sever all future possibilities with Brother Ling Kong, leaving her with no path for regret.
But why, at this moment, does her heart still feel so unbearable, suffocating her, she hasn’t done anything wrong, how could she tolerate someone controlling her life.
Having made her decision, she shall not turn back and will absolutely never look back.
Yet she also didn’t want to stay here, she just wanted to quickly escape from this place.
So, she decided to leave without a word, to travel somewhere else for a while and then return.
Taking the suitcase, she quietly left through the back hall, while her father, mother, and brother were all accompanying the guests, unaware of her departure, and she didn’t want to tell them.
Through the side door of the back hall, she walked out towards the garden, preparing to head to the garage and drive away.
"Where are you going, Yiyi." A familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind, quietly drifting in the night, gentle like moonlight, so gentle that it startled her.
She stiffly turned around, seeing Ling Kong standing not far behind her, his tall figure casting a blurry silhouette in the dim garden lights.
The light was too dim to discern his expression, only the long shadow on the ground exuded a deep solitary sadness.
"It’s late, little girl you’re not safe alone, let me take you." He nonchalantly smiled and walked over, picking up her luggage and heading towards the garage.
Jun Yiyi’s eyes widened to the utmost, shocked as she looked at him, what was he doing, she had just spoken so mercilessly, he’s so smart, he should understand the meaning behind her words.
Why, does he now look as if nothing had happened.
Still so gentle to her, doting and showing concern for her.
His attitude pained her, causing a sudden surge of intense anger.
"What are you doing, I don’t need you to take care of me." She grabbed her suitcase fiercely, her chest heaving with anger as she questioned furiously, "Didn’t you hear clearly what I said just now, or are you pretending you don’t understand?"
Ling Kong froze, his deep eyes filled with intense pain unseen in the dreamy night, like the endless fog of an autumn night, permeating the wounds in his heart.
How could he not hear clearly, every word she said was like a sharp blade, each stab piercing his heart.
But he still decided to act as if nothing had happened, he knew all too well her capriciousness, she was just a willful child, who once stubborn, was capable of saying anything cruel.
