Chapter 17 I'm Like a Clown (1/2)



I used to think that no one in the world loved me anymore.

But Song Qingrong told her she loved me.

So she made a self-righteous choice, causing me to meet Gu Nianci, making me hate her without my knowledge, and even making me take her virginity.

Just because she loves me.

Now Gu Nianci is telling me that Lin Qingxue has also fallen in love with me.

For a moment, I felt an inexplicable sense of depression. I couldn't understand why their so-called love had to be built on betrayal of me.

Betray me, deceive me, and then tell me they love me?

I gave a wry smile, looking at the sky gradually darkening and the sunset slowly disappearing in the distance. For a moment, I felt that this world was so magical, so unreal, and so unfathomable to me.

I feel like a clown...

No, I am a clown. From the moment I came into this world, I have been a complete and utter clown!

"There's one more thing I forgot to tell you."

Gu Nianci's voice came from behind me.

I didn't go to see her.

Even though what she said to me made me feel some sympathy for her, it was only a little. I still found her disgusting, and I loathe her for being the kind of person who would do anything for profit.

I also despise her for being the kind of person who taints love for personal gain.

If she still loves Xu Yan, I will still think highly of her, and I might even change my mind after feeling sorry for her. Consider it the last gift I give her before our divorce.

But now...

"What is it?" I asked in a cold voice.

“Song Qingrong found me before I came here.”

Song Qingrong?

Upon hearing that name, my body trembled involuntarily. When I parted ways with Song Qingrong at the hotel, I had already made up my mind that I would never have anything to do with Song Qingrong again in this lifetime, and no matter what she did, I would only have one attitude.

Push her away, let her hate me, and then disappear from my world.

Since we parted ways, Song Qingrong has indeed not reappeared. Apart from that text message I didn't reply to, we haven't had any communication. It's as if she understood what I meant and didn't show up again.

But now, Gu Nianci has brought up her name again.

If it were anyone else who mentioned Song Qingrong, I wouldn't have much of a reaction or feeling, but it was Gu Nianci who brought up Song Qingrong again.

She and Song Qingrong had already collaborated once before...

A new guess popped into my head: Had Song Qingrong done something again?

This idea immediately made me feel uneasy.

Even if Song Qingrong betrayed and deceived me because she loved me, I don't want to have a similar experience again, because that feeling is unpleasant.

I turned to look at Gu Nianci, and without even realizing it, my voice was actually trembling a little.

"And then? What are you trying to say?" I asked.

Gu Nianci seemed oblivious to my change in mood and said calmly, "Song Qingrong begged me to let you go. She said she would do anything as long as I let you go."

At this point, Gu Nianci looked at me again, her face now displaying an emotion I couldn't decipher—a complex mix of feelings, as if she wanted to understand what kind of person I was.

After a while, she continued, "To be honest, I don't quite understand you anymore."

“You are not as useless as you appear on the surface; you are capable and have ideas.”

"Why have you pretended to be unambitious for the past few years?"

"Maybe it's just being cheap." I chuckled self-deprecatingly.

Is it cheap?
