“You go. I don’t want to see you again,” Su Wen insisted, attempting to push Zhou Hengyang away. However, he resisted, pulling her into a tight embrace, his strength unnerving. Despite Su Wen’s struggles, she remained trapped against him.
“I’m not leaving,” Zhou Hengyang asserted, holding onto Su Wen firmly. “I told you, I will never let go.”
“Zhou Hengyang, you…” Su Wen’s patience crumbled, her eyes reddening with a sense of injustice. Even her calm demeanour couldn’t contain the surge of emotions.
“Don’t cry, ” he commanded sharply.
“I’m not crying,” she retorted defiantly. “Let go of me, I told you to let go!” “Are you scolding me?”
“There’s no way we could be together,” Su Wen burst out in frustration. “We’re getting a divorce. If you’re capable, you don’t have to come to the Su family and suffer this grievance.”
The room’s atmosphere getting intense, making it difficult to breathe.
“What did you say?” Zhou Hengyang released his grip, taking a step back. “Say again?
Su Wen, caught off guard by the sudden loss of warmth, struggled to compose herself. Zhou Hengyang’s cold demeanour intensified her discomfort.
“I said you don’t have to marry into my family,” she repeated, teeth gritted.
“So…” Zhou Hengyang’s face darkened. His lips curled in a mocking arc. “Are you going to chase me away again? The second time.”
“That’s right!” Su Wen, stung by his coldness, turned away to hide her emotions.
“Haha!” Zhou Hengyang retreated, his demeanour shifting to one of decadence and coldness. “What do I mean to you, Su Wen? A servant who comes and goes?”
Su Wen remained silent, unable to answer.
“So, no matter how hard I work, I’m just an unpresentable husband to you? Whenever you need me you call me out. When you don’t need me anymore, you chase me away.”
“I…” Su Wen struggled to respond. She wanted to explain for herself, but she knew it wouldn’t change anything. The burden of her original self’s dark history lingered.
Because she now understood that she could never entrust her original character with those tasks. Even if she tried hard to change everyone’s impression of her, to improve her interpersonal relationships, and to take on responsibilities, it’s still useless.
He couldn’t forget the dark history of her original character being attracted to Zhao Jiangang.
These are all things she had to bear after transmigrating into this body.
Su Wen has never thought of shirking her responsibility! She admitted it.
He left.
Su Wen dejected, slumped to the ground. Zhou Hengyang was gone. She hugged her knees, silently shedding tears. The passionate night had turned into this heart-wrenching moment.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to have his child, indeed she hadn’t considered it before. She never thought about having a child, and she never considered using contraception. The unexpected turn of events left her questioning how things had come to this. Su Wen buried her face, unable to determine whose fault it was..
