"divorce?!"
Chu Lingjue struggled to squeeze out these two words from his thin lips. Each word was cold and heart-wrenching, as if he was crying blood.
"Don't even think about it!"
As if under a restraining spell, Gu Xiwan froze in place. Her lips, which had already been covered in tears, trembled a few times before she was able to make a sound.
"Ha! I don't even think about it... Is it because Mr. Chu has a high position and is used to being complimented by others? He is so overbearing that he can't tell right from wrong?
It was you who cheated first, it was you who violated the sacred oath you said at the wedding ceremony to always be faithful to your wife, so what? You can't help but have a romantic couple with your first love for one night. I've made it possible for you to be a real couple openly and honestly. Isn't it just what you want? You should thank me! "
Gu Xiwan's voice was so cold, and Chu Lingjue's heart seemed to be torn apart as if a handful of sea salt had been sprinkled on it. Waves of heart-piercing pain hit him hysterically throughout his body.
Chu Lingjue touched his heart with his right hand and said,
"I don't care what you say, in short, I won't divorce!"
"oh?"
Gu Xiwan sneered, her teary eyes filled with determination,
"I don't care what you say. This marriage is divorced. I'm going to find a lawyer now."
After saying that, he started walking again.
"Gu Xiwan, stop!"
Chu Lingjue, who had long legs and long steps, chased after Gu Xiwan with one stride. His right hand tightly grasped Gu Xiwan's wrist. This man who never showed his emotions easily, at this moment, his voice was indescribably sad and sad. melancholy,
"You were already pregnant when you married me. You insisted on keeping this child. I didn't force you. I didn't even ask who the father of the child you were carrying was. I didn't care how many men you had slept with before. What about you? I just slept with a woman once due to negligence, and you insisted on divorcing me with such fuss...
Ah! What am I breaking my sacred wedding vows?
Why do you want to fulfill me?
It’s obvious that my position in your heart is not important!
Gu Xiwan, although you are reluctant to be my wife, the person you care about most has always been Ling Xiao. Have you been looking for an opportunity to leave me and embrace Ling Xiao? Congratulations, you finally found the opportunity this time! "
As if she had suddenly fallen into an ice cave, Gu Xiwan felt as if her whole body was freezing.
Chu Lingjue held her wrist so tightly that his fingers dug deeply into her skin. There was no feeling on her wrist, only waves of knife-like pain in her heart from time to time.
At the same time, Gu Xiwan couldn't understand Chu Lingjue.
No!
To be precise, the aloof and indifferent Chu Lingjue always seemed to be living in a layer of ice. Chu Lingjue was used to not revealing his true emotions to others. Gu Xiwan had never understood him.
Gu Xiwan originally thought that as time went by, she would gradually get into Chu Lingjue's heart and gradually understand him.
However, at this moment, Gu Xiwan found that she didn't understand him even more.
Chu Lingjue!
Isn’t he very traditional at heart?
He actually felt that he slept with a woman and it was not worth her "fuss".
Isn't the person he cares most about Sheng Xinyi?
He and Sheng Xinyi had skin-to-skin contact. Besides, it was Sheng Xinyi's first time. Shouldn't he be responsible for Sheng Xinyi?
He actually said that he just slept with a woman once because of his carelessness.
To him, was Sheng Xinyi just a woman he accidentally slept with? !
"I……"
Gu Xiwan calmed down for a while before finding her voice.
"I'm not that old-fashioned. If you just lost control and had skin-to-skin contact with a woman, I would never be like that. The point is, the person you had skin-to-skin contact with is Sheng Xinyi."
Gu Xiwan, who had just managed to stop her tears, had tears running down her face again when she said this. She silently took a breath and tried her best not to choke.
"You once again made me deeply realize how important Sheng Xinyi is in your heart, and I will always be your foil...
Chu Lingjue, I'm really tired. I don't want to be a foil to accompany you and Sheng Xinyi in this jealous love game. Please let me go. I beg you. "
Feeling Gu Xiwan's hands trembling, the anger in Chu Lingjue's eyes subsided slightly, and his voice became much gentler.
"You are my wife. From the moment I decided to grow old with you, you have occupied an irreplaceable position in my heart. You have never been a foil."
"Yeah?"
Gu Xiwan looked back at Chu Lingjue, her tearful eyes full of sarcasm,
"But, Chu Lingjue, we have been married for so long, and I have never heard you say I love you once. A woman is not a foil to a husband who does not love her but is always thinking about his first love. What?"
Only then did Chu Lingjue realize that Gu Xiwan's face was full of tears.
Seeing Gu Xiwan's face full of tears, Chu Lingjue's heart suddenly felt like it was being grabbed. The emotions that had enveloped his heart before were so rich and strong. At this moment, all those emotions became nothing to him. It didn't matter, all he felt was the pain for Gu Xiwan...
He couldn't help but let go of Gu Xiwan's wrist and wanted to hold her face gently as before.
At this time, Gu Xiwan, who had regained her freedom, turned around indifferently and walked away quickly.
Looking at Gu Xiwan's lonely but stubborn figure, the pain in Chu Lingjue's eyes became more and more unbearable.
He suddenly made up his mind, opened his white teeth and thin lips and said,
"Gu Xiwan, I love you!"
Gu Xiwan seemed to be petrified beside the hibiscus tree in the yard.
I love you……
Gu Xiwan couldn't tell when she secretly made a promise to Chu Lingjue. She only knew that since a long time ago, she had dreamed of Chu Lingjue saying to her day and night, "I love you..."
A few seconds ago, Gu Xiwan was full of loss and sadness.
At this moment, she only felt that her whole body was enveloped in happiness and sweetness. The sky was obviously as gloomy as night, but she felt that there was thousands of rays of light shining on her, making every scenery she saw extremely bright.
In the blink of an eye, Chu Lingjue had arrived in front of Gu Xiwan.
The first time Chu Lingjue saw Gu Xiwan in the bridal chamber, he was distracted by the fragrance of Gu Xiwan.
Later, the deeper his contact with Gu Xiwan, the more he couldn't stop lusting after Gu Xiwan... Later, when Chu Lingjue saw Gu Xiwan and Chu Lingxiao together, he was so heartbroken that he thought he had a terminal illness... …
Gradually, Chu Lingjue realized that the reason why he couldn't stop lusting after Gu Xiwan was because he fell in love with Gu Xiwan at first sight... and the heartache that made him mistakenly believe that he was terminally ill was because of jealousy!
Chu Lingjue had long understood that he was deeply in love with Gu Xiwan and loved her to the point where he couldn't help himself.
It's just that Gu Xiwan doesn't love him!
What's even more outrageous is that Gu Xiwan personally told him that every time Gu Xiwan entangled with him passionately, she treated him as a "tool".
Therefore, the noble Chu Lingjue never gave up his dignity and said "I love you" to Gu Xiwan.
However, at this moment, Lihua Daiyu, who saw Gu Xiwan crying, was determined to leave him. Even the dignity that Chu Lingjue valued most was no longer important to him.
He gently pinched Gu Xiwan's chin, slowly raised her pretty face, stared at her with burning eyes, and said softly,
"I love you, so stop making trouble and don't mention divorce again, okay?"
