Lin Xiuyan took a deep breath and said, "That's right. Our marriage was originally a very hasty decision, a transaction."
"Now that you have other ideas, I naturally have no objection."
"But I still need to clarify things regarding Xu Qianting. I saved Xu Qianting based on our childhood friendship."
"It was my fault for misunderstanding you that day, and I sincerely apologize to you again."
She smiled as she said this: "I've always felt that when you do something wrong, an apology is never enough to make up for it."
"I can understand if you don't accept my apology."
After she finished speaking, she reached for the divorce papers. Ye Junfei's gaze darkened slightly, and he stopped her hand, asking, "Do you like Xu Qianting?"
Lin Xiuyan replied without hesitation, "He is my friend, so I should like him, but this liking has nothing to do with romantic feelings."
Ye Junfei's peach blossom eyes deepened slightly as he asked her, "And what about me? What am I to you? Do you have even the slightest bit of affection for me?"
Lin Xiuyan hesitated.
Her feelings towards him were actually somewhat complicated.
She disliked his domineering and unreasonable behavior when they first met in this life, just as she had felt fear and disgust in her past life.
However, during this time when the two spent every day together, she ultimately failed to keep her heart.
Telling her at this point that her feelings for him are meaningless, since he has already made his decision.
Not to mention, he is an extremely dangerous person, so it's best to distance yourself from him.
It would be a good choice for him to stop bothering her and never see her again.
She said calmly, "Does that matter? Our marriage was originally just a contract, and marrying you was not my original intention."
"If you are worried about your condition, you can rest assured. You saved Xu Qianting, so I owe you a great favor. I will continue to treat you."
"Take the prescription I gave you for another ten days. After ten days, come back to me to adjust the prescription. Take it for a while longer, and you should be almost fully recovered."
"Don't let my parents know about our divorce until your illness is completely cured, so as not to make things difficult for you."
"Once you recover, let's not see each other again."
After she finished speaking, she went to get the divorce papers again, but Ye Junfei stopped her once more.
She looked at him, his gaze extremely complex, and he sneered, "You still say you don't care about Xu Qianting."
Lin Xiuyan was exhausted, but she still had to explain to him: "I didn't say I didn't care about him. He's like family to me. In my heart, he's like an older brother."
“Your Highness, if you want a divorce, then we will get a divorce. Don’t involve him. This matter has nothing to do with him.”
Ye Junfei looked at her and said, "Answer my question first: Do you have even the slightest bit of affection for me?"
Lin Xiuyan pressed her temples, took a deep breath, and said decisively, "I don't like it."
Ye Junfei's eyes instantly turned red, startling her. This was a sign that he was about to go mad.
She quickly replied, "That was before. I didn't like you before, I even hated you."
"But now... I... whether I like you or not is no longer important, since we're already divorced!"
Ye Junfei stared intently at her with his peach blossom eyes: "No, this is very important to me."
"Tell me your true feelings about me. If you tell me even half a lie, I'll kill your whole family."
"Don't try to lie to me. I can tell whether you're telling the truth or not."
Hearing this, Lin Xiuyan felt utterly exhausted and could only say, "After spending so much time together these past few days, I think... I guess I might have some feelings for you..."
She glanced at him after saying this, and saw his exquisitely beautiful peach blossom eyes instantly light up. (www.cascoo.net)
He reached out and took her hand, asking, "What did you say? You like me?"
Ye Junfei was somewhat surprised; she actually liked him!
Separation was not his original intention; he simply felt that forcibly binding the two of them together would only make her hate him even more.
Rather than doing that, it would be better to set her free, so that the two of them don't torment each other.
But now she's telling him that she likes him!
This is absolutely fantastic news!
Since she likes him, he will never let her go no matter what!
Lin Xiuyan felt a little uncomfortable and said, "Even if I like you a little now, I think it's still very weak."
"I think this kind of feeling is probably just that when people spend a lot of time together, they will eventually develop some feelings for each other."
Ye Junfei's eyes flickered slightly, and he said softly, "I'll give you another choice. I'm going back to the Pingnan Prince's Mansion tomorrow. You'll come back with me."
Lin Xiuyan was about to say: We've already divorced, why would I go back with you?
Before she could finish speaking, Ye Junfei said with a hint of threat, "Think it over before you speak."
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
She was starting to wonder what he was up to.
Ye Junfei picked up the divorce papers and wrote a large "return" character on the paper underneath.
He unfolded the two pieces of paper, looked at Lin Xiuyan, and said, "Choose one of the two pieces of paper."
"If you are willing to come back with me, I will treat you like a precious treasure and will not let anyone bully you."
"If you still choose to divorce, I will kill your whole family."
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
This man is crazy!
This wasn't giving her a choice; it was clearly forcing her to go back with him.
Furthermore, he was the one who wanted a divorce, and he was also the one who forced her to stay with him!
She looked at him and said, "Ye Junfei, can't you be reasonable?"
Ye Junfei pointed to the two pieces of paper and said, "I'm trying to reason with you now, so choose one!"
Lin Xiuyan was already at her wit's end; there was simply no way to complain.
She planned to pick up the divorce papers, tear them into pieces, and throw them in his face!
But just as she reached out her hand, Ye Junfei stopped her.
She looked at him, and he said somewhat awkwardly, "Think about it again. Your parents are good people, and I don't want to kill them easily."
Lin Xiuyan was genuinely at a loss for words when she heard this.
She turned to look at him, and a hint of tenderness appeared in his peach blossom eyes: "It's rare that you have even a little bit of affection for me."
"I think if we nurture our relationship a bit more, your feelings for me will grow stronger."
"I think I'm good-looking and capable enough to be a good match for you. Please reconsider."
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
She had never considered divorce today; she just wanted to apologize to him.
He wanted a divorce, and she agreed. So what is he doing now?
She asked with a hint of helplessness, "Your Highness, do you still want a divorce now?"
Ye Junfei looked at her and said, "This isn't a question of whether I want it or not; I'm giving you the choice."
"Don't you always say I'm domineering and unreasonable? Today I'll give you a choice and talk to you rationally."
Lin Xiuyan: "...I don't believe you for a second!"
She was furious, grabbed his hand, and bit him hard.
