She—the hidden heiress of the Shen family, had long resided abroad with her aunt.
He—the sole heir of the Ning family, burdened with heavy responsibilities yet indulging in endless play, idle...
Shen Yueyan took out a complete divorce agreement and placed it in front of Ning Yifan again: "Sign it, I know that the other one must have been torn up by you."
He still chose to ignore the divorce agreement that appeared in front of him again.
He walked closer to her and looked at her, wiping the tears from his face. "So you have been using me and deceiving me from the beginning?"
He looked at her, his face full of grievance and pity, and she looked at him, with a hint of restraint and entanglement.
The two looked at each other face to face. They were so close that they could seem to hear each other's breathing and heartbeat.
His eyes had always been beautiful, clean and clear, bright and absent-minded, gleaming with confidence and arrogance, and filled with her. However, things were different now. His clear and bright eyes had become a little older, but the only thing that remained unchanged was the woman in his eyes.
Seeing eyes full of her own, Shen Yueyan almost fell into them again.
When she recovered, she stiffly turned her back to him, nodded without hesitation, and said coldly: "You are right, I have been using you and deceiving you all along."
Ning Yifan lowered his head and smiled bitterly.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure before him, he felt a faint pang in his heart. He couldn't help but step forward and ask again, "I just want to ask you, have you ever loved me? I don't dare to expect you to give up revenge for me. I just want to ask you, from the first time we met until now, in all these years, have you ever had a moment, even a fleeting moment, of giving up revenge because of me?"
A questioning voice came from behind, a hoarse voice with a hint of trembling, a grievance with a hint of begging. She didn't even need to look back, she could imagine how sad and desperate he must be at this moment, to ask such a question.
He used to be the high-spirited and sincere Mr. Ning, but now...
She had to be ruthless and completely stop him from thinking about her and sever all ties between them. This would be good for both of them.
She calmed down, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, clenched her fists, and tried to calm herself down. She replied with a firm tone, "I can tell you with certainty that it has never happened."
"I don't believe it!" Ning Yifan roared with a wry smile.
He walked forward, grabbed Shen Yueyan's shoulders tightly, and asked her to turn around to face him.
"I want you to look into my eyes and tell me that everything is fake, that you have never loved me! Say it, say it!!!" He shook her shoulders with red eyes.
Unexpectedly, the moment she faced him, tears actually flowed down in front of him.
He was at a loss for words for a moment, and the anger that had just appeared on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by caution.
"You're crying..."
He gently wiped the tears from her face with his hand. Seeing her tears, he softened unconsciously.
The tears she shed seemed like a good medicine for him who had been ill for a long time, like a warm hug for a child who lacked love, like evidence that she still loved him. This tear flowed into his heart, like a long drought finally ending in a downpour.
He slowly held her in his arms, kissed her hair passionately, and greedily inhaled the fragrance from her body.
"I knew you still loved me. You were willing to shed tears for me. That means everything you just said was insincere, right?"
At this moment, he was sure that she was still her and she still loved him.
But Shen Yueyan in his arms didn't think so. Although she loved him very much, they were destined not to be together. Instead of being entangled in pain for a lifetime, it is better to cut it off.
One of the two people must be cruel, so she is willing to be the cruel one.
She couldn't stay in this embrace for too long, otherwise she would be reluctant to let go.
She gritted her teeth and tried to hold back her tears, took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and then, in the midst of pain and struggle, she struggled with all her strength to push him away.
Shen Yueyan deliberately took two steps back and looked at him indifferently, as if she was watching a joke. There was no affection in her eyes and she was cold and indifferent, just like looking at an unrelated stranger.
This made Ning Yifan stunned. He couldn't believe that she would actually show him such a look. He could feel the indifference, disgust, and hatred in her eyes...
How could it be? She had just shed tears for him, how could it be...
The coldness in her eyes slowly seeped into his body, and finally fell on his burning heart...
She spoke slowly, "A single tear can deceive you. Mr. Ning, in order to prevent you from misunderstanding, I think it is necessary for me to reiterate this to you once again."
She slowly walked towards him again: "This time, I will look you in the eyes and tell you, please listen carefully"
She clenched her fists tightly. "Everything between Mr. Ning and I is fake. I have never loved you, Mr. Ning. From the first time we met, it was all premeditated, and you have always cooperated and acted according to my expectations..."
Ning Yifan's desperate eyes were seen by her, but she seemed not to care at all. She still looked at him seriously and continued to rub salt into his wounds: "From the moment my parents left, I have only one thing in my life, that is revenge and clearing their grievances.
How could I give up revenge because of you, the son of my enemy?
You and I are bound together by hatred. Where does love come from?"
Where does love come from when hatred arises...
These eight characters, word by word, hammered heavily into his heart. Where does love come from?
Yes, where does love come from? He also wants to know where his love comes from and how he can love her so much...
