Chapter 402: Chapter 402: She Will Not Be Let Off Easily_1
The moment the girl heard that, she felt hopeful and became even more excited. "I love you. I love you so much that I can do anything for you," she confessed.
"Anything? Is your love so deep, you’re willing to die for me?" the man asked.
"Of course." The girl’s eyes were full of admiration and infatuation. Her heart pounded whenever she looked at the devilishly charming and yet tender man before her, finding it impossible not to be attracted to him.
Third Young Master Jun flashed a devilish smile, gently let go of her chin, and pointed to a nearby pool. "Then jump into it and drown. That’ll prove your love for me!" he said.
The girl stared at him in disbelief. She never expected him to utter such a terrifying sentence, sending her from heaven straight down to hell.
"Third Young Master, you’re joking, right?"
"No."
"It’s winter, the water is very cold. I could freeze to death." She was shivering uncontrollably.
"Did you not just say you can die for me?" Third Young Master Jun sighed, "Turns out, your love was just empty words!"
The girl was genuinely terrified of his twisted mentality. She covered her face, screamed, and ran back towards the banquet.
Third Young Master Jun lowered his eyes, picked up his wine with a smirk. "Women’s love is always so superficial."
Ye Lu never expected to see him here, let alone witness such to his twisted behavior. A chill ran down her spine, but she turned around to leave quietly.
"Watching the drama without giving any comments and then just leaving, that’s not what a good audience does!"
His voice, cold as ice, came from behind.
Ye Lu’s breathing quickened, but she didn’t dare to stop her steps. She wanted to get back to the banquet as quickly as possible and avoid being alone with him.
Good audience or not, whenever she witnessed his wickedness, she was always the one to suffer.
She had barely taken a few panicked steps in her high heels, when a menacing shadow appeared before her, his aggressive aura making her heart pound. There was a strong smell of whiskey that was so overpowering it infiltrated her mouth and nose, making every breath she took feel like fire.
Ye Lu could only stop hastily, making her twist her foot with a sharp pain coursing up her ankle.
She gritted her teeth, lifted her head, and glared furiously at the domineering man blocking her path.
"Get out of my way, what are you trying to do by blocking me?"
He was so tall and robust that he completely blocked the light coming from the banquet room. It was like being surrounded by his darkness, causing her heart to beat wildly with fear.
"Seeing you scared like this, you’re quite pitiful. Where’s the courage you had when you rejected the marriage proposal?" Third Young Master Jun said condescendingly, sarcasm evident in his tone.
Ye Lu took a deep breath, grinding her teeth, "We have nothing to do with each other anymore, can’t you just let me go?"
She was going crazy. She thought she could escape this man forever after breaking things off that night. But, it seemed that she was being too naive.
He held a grudge and was not planning on letting her off easily.
"Ye Lu, do you actually think simply saying that we have nothing to do with each other changes anything? You publicly rejected me, causing me - the illustrious Third Young Master - to lose face in front of everyone. And you still want to happily move on with another man?"
Third Young Master Jun’s eyes were cold and ruthless. He outstretched his hand and viciously gripped her chin.
"Do you see me as someone generous? I don’t have a habit of letting people off easily. Whoever wrongs me, I will repay them tenfold until they’re destroyed."
Ye Lu felt sharp pains in her chin and chills throughout her body from his cruel words. Yet her anger only intensified.
She said angrily, "It was me who offended you, so don’t involve Gu Yan."
"Oh, how touching. You’d rather suffer all alone. That’s certainly noble love."
Third Young Master Jun sneered, his eyes full of rage and hatred intensifying.
