"I can't stand it," Han Chen said coldly.
Zhou Mo was dazed for a moment, not understanding Han Chen's logic. "What are you so upset about? My junior fellow student doesn't call me 'senior sister'?"
Han Chen frowned, his face tense, "I can't stand him liking you."
Zhou Mo was terrified. "What nonsense are you talking about? How could my junior brother like me?"
"Go ask him yourself whether I am talking nonsense or not," Han Chen was unwilling to say more.
Zhou Mo found it ridiculous. Glancing at Han Chen, he teased, "Is it because you still like me that you think all the opposite sex around me are interested in me? Haha, Han Chen, you weren't like this before. After not seeing you for a few years, you've even learned to be jealous."
Han Chen tightened his grip on the steering wheel, the car suddenly accelerated, and Zhou Mo was thrown back onto the seat by inertia.
She stared at Han Chen's profile angrily, "You still say Liu Kai likes me, it's obvious that you still have feelings for me and are jealous. Don't deny it."
Han Chen's face looked extremely ugly, his thin lips were pursed into a line, and he said nothing.
"Why don't you speak? Did I get it right?" Zhou Mo looked at him provocatively.
However, Han Chen remained silent.
Zhou Mo looked puzzled. "Are you upset and angry because I exposed you? If you still like me, you can admit it openly..."
The front of the car suddenly turned and merged into another lane. Zhou Mo was thrown against the car door and was slightly bumped.
Before Zhou Mo could react, Han Chen pulled over.
Han Chen turned around and unbuckled his seatbelt. Zhou Mo looked at him hesitantly, "What are you doing?"
Han Chen leaned forward, and Zhou Mo retreated defensively. Han Chen grabbed her arm and pulled her towards him.
"We were on the highway just now, so it was inconvenient to argue." Han Chen tugged at Zhou Mo's arm, and Zhou Mo moved closer to Han Chen. "Now we can talk it out."
Zhou Mo was a little trembling. Han Chen was very close to her. She could even feel his breath on her face. Trying to remain calm, she asked, "What do you want to clarify?"
"Don't you think I still like you?" Han Chen sneered, "If you want to know the answer, you can come and prove it yourself."
Zhou Mo blushed instantly. Of course she knew what Han Chen meant.
Because she used a kiss to prove that she was attracted to Han Chen.
"Pervert!" Zhou Mo pushed Han Chen away randomly.
Han Chen sneered, "Since you can't prove it, don't say such baseless words as 'I like you' anymore."
Zhou Mo bit his lip, "Then why do you dislike my junior brother?"
Han Chen added, "It's not that I can't stand him, it's that I can't stand him liking you."
Zhou Mo was furious: "Not the same thing?"
Han Chen's eyes swept across Zhou Mo's face and looked straight ahead. "Our marriage certificate is legal. Regardless of the reason for obtaining the certificate, this relationship is protected by law. Even if there is no love, there should be a minimum spirit of contract."
Zhou Mo became angry at the mention of the "spirit of contract." "Yes, I agree, but you can't use this excuse to delay my life and make me permanently lose my 'freedom to choose a spouse,' right?"
"So you want a divorce and want to regain the 'freedom to choose your spouse'?" Han Chen said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Zhou Mo just wanted everything to return to its original track.
Han Chen's dark eyes dimmed slightly. "Who will be the next one? Your junior brother?"
Zhou Mo was stunned for a moment, "What are you talking about!"
Han Chen was getting more and more outrageous. She couldn't understand Han Chen's train of thought at all.
Han Chen sneered, "What else? Why are you in such a hurry to get a divorce?"
Zhou Mo exploded, "My divorce has nothing to do with my junior brother! You have no right to control who my next partner will be!"
"Yes, I don't care," Han Chen said in a cold tone, "but don't forget, we haven't divorced yet. Whatever you have in mind, put it away."
This was the first time Zhou Mo heard Han Chen speak threateningly in such a tone.
Having known each other for more than ten years, Zhou Mo had always treated him as an acquaintance. She had never imagined that at this moment he would have such a terrifying aura that kept strangers away, as if in the next second, if Zhou Mo dared to take a wrong step, she would be finished.
Zhou Mo felt wronged, very wronged, inexplicably wronged.
How did it come to this, being so firmly controlled by Han Chen?
Could it be that she will have to spend her whole life in this meaningless marriage with Han Chen?
"Han Chen," Zhou Mo lowered his head, "Since we have no feelings for each other, why don't we give each other a way out?"
Han Chen just thought it was ridiculous. "I spent so much effort to return to Dongjiang from the imperial capital, and you want me to let you go?"
Zhou Mo's heart sank. As expected, Han Chen came to Dongjiang either because he was afraid of "internal competition" or because he came for her.
"Zhou Mo, after so many relationships, have you ever been dumped?" Han Chen suddenly asked.
Zhou Mo didn't want to answer.
"No, right?" Han Chen asked back.
Zhou Mo turned his head away and didn't look at him. "I don't want to talk about the past."
Han Chen chuckled, "Do you not want to mention it or are you feeling guilty?"
"Why should I feel guilty?" Zhou Mo frowned.
"You've only ever played around with the world, never once thinking about properly managing a relationship. You entered carelessly, ended carelessly, and couldn't even come up with a decent reason for breaking up. From the beginning to the end, you were so high and mighty, leaving at any moment without a second thought. Ask yourself, have you ever truly invested in me?"
Zhou Mo was stunned. She was surprised that Han Chen rarely spoke at such length, and was also shocked that Han Chen accused her so bluntly.
"Do you know why I am still brooding over the past?" Han Chen asked.
"Why?" Zhou Mo also wanted to know, "Because it's my first love?"
"Yes, but not entirely." Han Chen's emotions were no longer as excited as before. He was very calm at the moment, but also a little sad and forbearing. "After breaking up with you, I found that I couldn't fall in love with anyone, and I didn't want to start any relationship. Because my sincerity was trampled on, you made me lose all hope in so-called love. You said that not getting a divorce would deprive you of your 'freedom to choose a spouse', but don't you think the same of me? I won't fall in love with anyone anyway, so I might as well drag you to hell with me. At least I can still feel relieved."
Zhou Mo then realized that this was Han Chen's true thought, and that she had hurt him so deeply.
She always knew that she was sorry for Han Chen, but she never thought that Han Chen would be so hurt.
In the past, Han Chen had always been indifferent, and Zhou Mo thought that he was just like herself, just experiencing the budding of youth and hormones.
She never thought that Han Chen would take that immature relationship so seriously, so seriously that he would never be able to fall in love with anyone else since then.
Zhou Mo suddenly remembered the day he broke up with Han Chen ten years ago.
It was a weekend.
She thought in her room for half an hour, writing and drawing on the draft paper, reviewing her troops and generals, and secretly picked the roses planted by Liu Xiangru and counted the petals.
No matter how you calculate it, the result is "breakup".
Even God thinks so, so Zhou Mo can only accept his fate.
She was disappointed about the decision to break up, but not to the point of being heartbroken. She thought that she was only seventeen years old and there was still a long time in the future. There was plenty of time and possibility to meet someone she liked more.
Han Chen was just a passer-by in her life.
Besides, Han Chen was destined to leave Dongjiang.
