In the darkness, Gu Yuan stood before her.
Her heart trembled uncontrollably, and her palms began to sweat. For some reason, she was now filled with fear of him, afraid that he would take her back and force her to do things she didn't want to do.
"Come back with me." Gu Yuan said calmly, his tone devoid of any emotion.
"I won't go back with you," Fu Hange refused without even thinking.
Gu Yuan stepped forward, getting closer to her. "Where can you go if you don't come back with me?"
"It's none of your business."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yuan grabbed her hand and pulled her back without a trace of tenderness.
Fu Hange immediately squatted down, increasing the resistance, and shouted, "Let me go!"
Gu Yuan didn't say anything, but continued to pull her forward with a cold face.
Fu Hange staggered a few steps and lost her balance, but by the time she recovered, she had already taken a few steps forward.
Seeing that things couldn't go on like this, she immediately yelled, "I'm tired of you, I don't want to go back to that place with you. If you have any conscience at all, let me go!"
Gu Yuan abruptly stopped, holding her hand, and stood motionless. Time seemed to stand still, and he made no further move.
"What did you say?" he asked uncertainly.
Fu Hange straightened up, straightened her sleeves, and said breathlessly, "I don't want to be completely controlled by you, so for our own good, let's stop here."
Actually, she was also in pain when she said those words. When the person you love is standing in front of you, you can't get close and you have to say things that hurt both of you. Isn't that a kind of cruelty?
Fu Hange's tears fell uncontrollably at this moment, large drops, warm and heartbreaking.
Gu Yuan turned around and looked at her directly, but he couldn't say a word when he saw the woman in front of him.
How can I avoid hurting you? And how can I express my love in a way that makes you feel loved?
Gu Yuan slowly exhaled, then said seemingly casually, "Would you like to come back with me first?"
This was the first time he had spoken in a pleading tone, and only this woman could make him abandon his pride.
Fu Hange looked up, staring blankly at Gu Yuan, tears still streaming down her face.
Her voice choked with emotion as she asked, "Why should I go back with you?"
"Because you're still my wife."
"But we've been defunct for a long time!"
The hurtful words were like sharp weapons piercing Gu Yuan's heart; that place he loved so deeply was already bleeding and blurred beyond repair.
Yes, Fu Hange is right. How can they be considered husband and wife now? In fact, they have long existed in name only.
Even though we're sleeping in the same bed, our hearts have already drifted far away, not knowing where they've gone.
Gu Yuan wanted to explain, he opened his mouth, but swallowed the words back down.
In the end, he only said, "Come home with me first."
For some reason, Fu Hange laughed out loud, her laughter sarcastic and sharp. "Go home? Where is my home? Do I even have a home anymore?"
Gu Yuan's voice was hoarse and trembling with emotion as he said, "You still have me..."
Fu Hange was slightly taken aback. If he had said this to her before, she would have been so happy, but not now.
Her tone suddenly turned harsh, "Isn't what happened between you and Bai Xin obvious enough? Why are you keeping me here now? What exactly do you mean by this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yuan went up and hugged her, his breath coming in short gasps. He didn't want to say another word, because saying more would be pointless. He only wished that time would not take away the only two of them they had left.
We just want to be like this, completely belonging to each other.
