Chapter 164 Do You Really Have a Heart?
Before Ruan Yi could think, she lunged forward and grabbed the scissors the man was about to stab at her neck.
The cold metal edge instantly embedded itself in my palm, the sharp edges scraping my skin painfully, and my soft palm was pressed deeply indented, leaving two long, dark red cuts.
The man's eyes widened suddenly, clearly not expecting the girl to block him with her hand. The moment he felt the resistance, he reacted quickly and let go.
The delusional thought that he could start all over again through death vanished instantly.
He grabbed Ruan Yi's hand like a madman, and when he saw the two scratches, the tears that had been welling up in his eyes fell without warning.
"Ruan Yi, are you stupid?! How could you catch it with your bare hands? Why didn't you throw a punch or kick me?!"
The man shouted off-key, tears streaming down his face, as he urgently and carefully blew on her reddened wound.
In her panic, she realized that she had said hurtful things, and wished she could tear her mouth apart on the spot.
"That's not what I meant, I'm sorry... I don't know why I always say such hurtful and stupid things, I don't know what I can do to get your forgiveness..."
His tears, mixed with his heavy breathing, fell onto Ruan Yi's hand, and he kept apologizing in a choked, sobbing voice.
Ruan Yi felt as if her heart was blocked. Watching the other person clumsily pour out their emotions without any skill, she didn't know whether to be angry or pity them.
In fact, he could have used his good physical attributes like Pei Lian, but Shen Xun couldn't think of such a method at all. He just wanted to get close to her as soon as they met.
It is precisely this kind of impulsive emotion that appears particularly foolish in the face of other perfectly portrayed "gentlemen".
The stinging pain in her palm was still burning in waves. Ruan Yi suddenly pulled her hand back and questioned him angrily.
"You're really seriously ill. Who told you that you can start over after you die? You'll only see the King of Hell after you die!"
Ruan Yi stared into his red eyes, her own eyes welling up with tears. "Have you thought about Aunt Jiang and Uncle Chen? Have you thought about all the people who care about you?"
"I'm just your fiancée, I'm not worth you doing this!"
The man seemed to be struck by her words, staring at her with wide eyes, looking incredulous.
"Just a fiancée? Why... why do you always manage to brush everything off so easily?!"
Shen Xun pressed closer, gripping her wrist tightly, his eyes brimming with tears.
"I'm not crazy! We've known each other since birth! Even if there have been arguments and misunderstandings... what about the relationship we've had for the past ten years or so?"
“You existed in my life for the first seventeen years! Every single day! Just because of one argument… Why could I be so easily replaced by someone else! Why?!”
As tears streamed down her face, the man stared at the two deep marks on her palms, his eyes filled with pain and anger.
"Ruan Yi, do you really have a heart? Do you?"
Her chest was pounding faster and faster. She didn't know what to say, and felt like she had a fishbone stuck in her throat.
“Chen Xun…we’ve all grown up.”
"We've been in a cold war for so long, and you were able to live a good life. Why is it like this now?"
Looking at the turbulent emotions in Shen Xun's eyes, her heart ached slightly. She had only wanted to resolve the problem, but she hadn't expected to push him to such an extreme situation.
The man's body suddenly began to tremble violently, as if he could no longer hold on.
"I was faking it all! I couldn't even imagine a future without you..."
"Actually, I can't live without you!"
Ruan Yi was so shocked that she froze on the spot, the other person's words echoing in her ears, her eyes welling up with tears, filled with disbelief and astonishment.
If you're still acting so perverted, how much more outrageous must you be acting!
The man could not guess Ruan Yi's thoughts. When he saw her tears, he immediately leaned down and gently kissed away the tears on her cheeks with trembling lips.
But his own tears fell on Ruan Yi's face, and the face he had just kissed was wet with new tears.
He kissed her again and again, from the girl's reddened eyes to her wet eyelashes, even the red marks on the tip of her nose from crying, leaving her eyelashes wet and sticking together.
"You're insane! You're a complete lunatic! You stupid dog, you dumb dog!"
She pushed him away, unable to bear it any longer, but he still stared intently at her glistening lips.
"I'm clumsy, and you're clumsy too... Let's be clumsy together, and clumsy in our marriage, okay?"
Before Ruan Yi could utter the words "I don't want to be stupid with you," the man's kiss landed on her again.
Just as she was about to open her mouth to retort, he firmly held her lips, forcing them apart and silencing her.
"You clearly don't want me to die, so why won't you marry me? Please, marry me..."
He could still mumble a complaint under his breath while biting into it.
Ruan Yi tried to push him away to argue, but each time she tried to push him away, she was interrupted by an even stronger kiss. She could only make soft whimpering sounds and gradually became completely weak.
He was the only one who could express their feelings; she was only meant to be kissed.
Their bodies pressed together grew hotter and hotter, the heat between their lips and teeth still rising, but the man suddenly stopped his force.
"If we keep kissing, it will..."
Shen Xun's thin, red lips gently brushed against hers, pausing for half a second before slowly releasing them.
Ruan Yi's eyelashes trembled before she opened her eyes, her gaze somewhat dazed, her brain not yet fully recovered from the lack of oxygen.
The next second, Shen Xun's Adam's apple bobbed, and he opened his mouth with a deliberately low and fierce tone.
"No... it will hurt your hand if you touch it."
Ruan Yi's cheeks instantly turned bright red. She snapped back to reality, "Who, who said they were going to do that!"
The words had barely left her mouth when her ears turned red. She hadn't even realized that she had been pulled into Chen Xun's arms.
Even through the thin fabric, you can clearly feel the scorching heat and the obvious prickling sensation.
One second they were arguing and fighting like their lives depended on it, and the next second they almost started to hate each other. It was truly terrifying.
The tense atmosphere still lingered between the two when a sudden burst of chaotic footsteps and shouts of obstruction erupted outside the door.
The door was pushed open.
The staff were still frantically reaching out to stop them, their faces pale as they shouted, "Sir, sir! You really can't go in."
Upon seeing the newcomer, Ruan Yi froze, instinctively leaping off Chen Xun's body.
She expected Gu Zhi to rush back after receiving the news, but she didn't expect him to arrive so quickly, even more timely than Lin Han, who had slept in the same bed with her the night before.
The moment Shen Xun looked up and saw Gu Zhi, the atmosphere around him suddenly became violent. He hated the man's framing and couldn't stand Ruan Yi's conditioned reflex of trying to distance herself from him.
Consumed by rage, he even considered stabbing Gu Zhi with the scissors instead of himself.
Gu Zhi didn't look at him, his gaze fixed on Ruan Yi.
Seeing the girl's eyes still flushed and her gaze not fully clear, clearly indicating that she had just experienced intimacy, his eyes instantly darkened.
His gaze then fell on her palm, where two glaring red marks made him clench his fists.
Finally, Gu Zhi's gaze fell on Shen Xun, his eyes slowly moving downwards...
It's hard not to notice something thriving in the other person's grotesque area; this clearly indicates what just happened.
The veins on the man's forehead throbbed violently. What enraged him most was that Shen Xun had actually injured her hand.
Gu Zhi didn't look at Chen Xun again, his gaze fixed on Ruan Yi, a smile playing on his lips, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.
He slowly opened his arms, his movements unhurried and gentle, even his voice carrying a soft, seductive quality.
"Sister, does your hand hurt? Come here, let me take a look, okay?"
As Gu Zhi expected, the girl paused almost imperceptibly, and without any thought, more like instinct, she lifted her foot. Even though her mind was still in a daze, her foot had already moved in his direction.
But as soon as she took half a step, his heavy, bony hand gripped her waist like an iron clamp, and with a little force, he pulled her back, her back slamming heavily against his strong chest.
Suppressing his jealousy, Shen Xun questioned, "You just go because he tells you to? Do you still consider him your brother?!"
Seeing that the girl's subconscious attempt to get closer to him was interrupted by Chen Xun, the tenderness in Gu Zhi's eyes instantly faded, leaving only cold displeasure, but it was quickly covered by a layer of innocence.
The man's voice softened a bit more, carrying just the right amount of grievance, as if he were accusing Chen Xun of obstruction.
"Am I no longer considered a younger brother?"
Shen Xun looked down at the reddened ear tips of the person in his arms, then looked up at Gu Zhi's pretentious appearance, and the fire in his heart burned even brighter.
"Still pretending, still pretending."
No wonder she was unwilling to get married... Having seen Gu Zhi's flirtatious and pretentious behavior in brothels so many times, how could Ruan Yi bear to marry him?
Then Gu Zhi continued to speak.
"If it's not my younger brother..."
"Then it could be something else, right?"
