Jiang Tian looked like she'd seen a ghost: "But I don't like you. What's the point of saying all this? Just because I don't like you doesn't mean I can't stay with you. Even breathing under the same sky with someone I don't like would be uncomfortable. So please leave as soon as possible. I know you mean well, but... uh, I'll decline."
Qin Mochen hadn't had a good night's sleep in days, all in preparation for this escape.
Unexpectedly, his efforts went unnoticed by Jiang Tian, who rejected him with such a nonchalant tone.
Qin Mochen's eyes involuntarily reddened: "Jiang Tian, I know I've wronged you, but I don't want you to suffer. Let me take you away, okay?"
"Oh, are they putting on a Qiong Yao drama here?"
Just as the two were facing off, a voice carrying a hint of coldness rang out.
Qin Mochen froze. He instinctively stepped forward, wanting to grab Jiang Tian's wrist and shield her behind him.
Before he could even take that step, Meng Guansheng kicked him to the ground.
Meng Guansheng was called over by Jiang Tian to help an old man. When he turned around, he saw that Qin Mochen's men had surrounded Jiang Tian.
Among these people, Meng Guansheng was the most inconspicuous.
Apart from Xiao Chengyang, no one even knew his background.
Qin Mochen brought so many people with him, of course he wouldn't care about him.
In their eyes, he was just an ordinary bodyguard.
Qin Mochen felt a metallic taste in his chest. Before he could stand up, Xiao Chengyang, who had rushed over, stepped on his foot.
Xiao Chengyang finally found some free time and wanted to visit his beloved, but he unexpectedly witnessed a good show.
His features remained sharp yet handsome, and a smile spread across his lips, yet it gave off a chilling aura.
Xiao Chengyang stomped firmly on Qin Mochen's sternum, his tone somewhat roguish: "You think you can just sneak into my place since I'm not here? Have you even considered how I feel?"
Qin Mochen could sense how much force Xiao Chengyang was using.
He was furious to the extreme.
Qin Mochen coughed, then suddenly laughed: "Why should I consider you? Is Jiang Tian willing to be with you? Have you asked her?"
"Your whole family, for your own selfish reasons, forcibly tied her to the boat, and now you won't let me rescue her? Did you even ask her if she wanted to marry you?"
Xiao Chengyang's face turned completely dark.
He's been busy these past few days, and he'll call Jiang Tian whenever he has a spare moment, but there's one crucial question he hasn't asked.
Because he was afraid of hearing answers he didn't want to hear.
Is Jiang Tian willing to marry him or not?
Xiao Chengyang felt very apologetic for dragging her into their family's internal strife.
But the storm had already begun, and Xiao Chengyang had no choice but to go with the flow.
Now everyone assumes that Jiang Tian will be his wife, and the more this is the case, the more uneasy Xiao Chengyang becomes.
Will she agree?
Does she truly want to be his wife?
Their relationship didn't begin with romance; instead, it was filled with the absurdity of playing around with life.
But Xiao Chengyang had already taken it seriously.
Once he realized his own thoughts, he began to make plans, and Jiang Tian was the only one who could be his.
But what about her feelings? Xiao Chengyang was hesitant to confirm.
In love, he was nothing more than a pathetic coward.
Now that Qin Mochen had exposed his secret thoughts, Xiao Chengyang felt even more disgusted with him.
"What I do with her is none of your business."
Qin Mochen suddenly burst into arrogant laughter, which grew louder and louder: "Is it that you don't want me to care, or that you simply can't control her heart? You're nothing but a robber!"
Xiao Chengyang suddenly exerted force with his feet, his face turning terrifyingly cold.
Qin Mochen abruptly turned his head and asked Jiang Tian without regard for anything else, "Jiang Tian, who do you really like? Who do you really love? Are you sure you want to spend the rest of your life with Xiao Chengyang?"
