Lin Jiaoyun didn't understand why Zhou Cheng was laughing so strangely.
Shouldn't he be hugging himself and shouting with joy?
He laughed, but it didn't seem like he was happy; it sounded more like he was mocking him.
Lin Jiaoyun couldn't understand the meaning behind the smile, but she still tilted her head back and nodded with a haughty and condescending attitude in response to Zhou Cheng's words.
However--
Zhou Cheng laughed even louder, his laughter filled with mockery and utter satisfaction: "You finally gave up, finally chose me, the one with the best family background, from among all those young masters as backup options, and then came over here, high and mighty, and said you agreed!"
"Hahaha... Lin Jiaoyun, Lin Jiaoyun, do you really think I'll stand here forever waiting for you to turn around?"
"Watch closely!"
"I, Zhou Cheng, am engaged to Cheng Xianyi today! As for you, I don't even want you! Get lost!"
With this sentence.
Zhou Cheng unfolded the jade pendant in his hand and placed it in front of Lin Jiaoyun.
He's come clean!
He no longer wants Lin Jiaoyun and has chosen Cheng Xianyi, who is deeply in love with him!
Then... Lin Jiaoyun broke down.
At first, she didn't quite grasp the meaning of Zhou Cheng's words. But once she did, and saw the shape of the jade pendant clearly, her blood froze, and her body began to tremble...
She was not afraid when she heard that Zhou Cheng had gone to the Cheng residence with a phoenix crown.
She wasn't afraid when she learned that Zhou Cheng had taken Cheng Xianyi to the flower market.
Even when Zhou Cheng pointed his finger at her and scolded her for not loving him, she was still not afraid.
Finally, even when she kissed Cheng Xianyi at Yanchunlou that day and made her jealous, she was only a little scared, but still confident.
But at this very moment...
She was scared.
My head exploded with a loud bang, as if some suppressed emotion had suddenly burst forth, completely shattering the confidence and arrogance I had accumulated over the past few days.
Lin Jiaoyun opened her mouth, only to find that her throat felt like it was being choked. It took her a while to finally utter a sound: "You, you, you and Cheng Xianyi are already... already engaged? Wasn't this just a ploy to lure me here and deceive me?"
"You weren't just kidding me!!!"
Zhou Cheng rolled his eyes and chuckled, "Lie to you? What's so great about you that I can fool you? Do you think you're so beautiful and charming that you're worthy of being the Crown Princess? Marrying me is just charity?"
"Take a look in the mirror at your flat face!"
"Xianyi is more beautiful than you, more talented than you, and has a better family background than you. She surpasses you in every way. Why would I give her up and choose you? Before? Before, I was just playing around. I really thought I couldn't live without you!"
Hearing these satisfying words, Madam Zhou smiled and said, "Miss Lin, I know you can't accept it right now, but Cheng'er is indeed engaged to Xianyi, and I am very satisfied with Xianyi as my well-educated and reasonable daughter-in-law."
"As for you? Stop living in the past."
Don't live in the past...
Living in the past...
past.......
These words echoed in Lin Jiaoyun's ears. She didn't understand. She couldn't understand how everything had changed in just a few days. How could she be living in the past?
Why should I?!
Why was he so good to her before, but when he saw her eyes redden, he worried and cared for her as if he were dying himself?
Why are you laughing so heartily when you see her looking so miserable?
Lin Jiaoyun covered her ears and screamed, "Ah!!! No, it can't be! I won't accept it!! I won't allow you to marry Cheng Xianyi!"
"This is the engagement token, isn't it? Smash it! Smash it! I'm the wife you should marry! Zhou Cheng, what's wrong with you these past few days? Did that bitch Cheng Xianyi give you some kind of spell? You never treated me like this before!"
"Waaaaah..."
Looking at the glaring jade pendant in front of her, Lin Jiaoyun could no longer hold back.
With a ferocious expression, she rushed forward, trying to snatch the jade pendant from Zhou Cheng's hand and smash it.
She thought that as long as she destroyed this thing that witnessed their relationship, she could destroy their relationship and win Zhou Cheng back.
