C5 Fifth Chapter

Shen Xun sat down on the sofa and looked at me, the light in his eyes flickering.

I picked up the juice and casually said, "Aren't you afraid that Luo Yuxian will be unhappy if you let me stay here? Besides, do you think I don't know what kind of person you are? Rather than guarding you, I would rather spend my own money to go to the hotel. The money for coming back to the hotel is yours. After all, you're the one who caused me to have a home that I can't go back to."

Shen Xun pinched the space between his brows and said somewhat helplessly," Qih Cai, can we talk nicely? Don't be so eccentric, alright? "

"You say I am eccentric? Just now in the restaurant, in the underground garage, who was the one mocking me? There is no longer any harmony between us. You provoked me first, so don't blame me for being impolite!"

My refusal to show weakness gave Shen Xun a headache. Shen Xun asked, "Alright, let's not talk about this for now. Tell me. Where have you been these few years? How did you learn to drive? Don't you know it was dangerous to drive like that just now?"

Shen Xun stared at me, not wanting to let go of every change in my face.

But I didn't give him the chance. I got up and left for the garden in front of the French window.

Shen Xun followed me closely. When he saw me sit down, he immediately sat down as well.

"Are you running away from me?"

"No, I just don't want to see you. Now I understand one thing. It's better if you don't get what you want, right?"

Shen Xun's face turned red. He gritted his teeth and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? You should know that even if we get divorced... I still care about you. You suddenly want to get engaged to Huo Huan so early in the morning. Do you know what kind of person he is? You married yourself so easily, even if you want to take revenge on me. You can't let yourself get involved in this!"

"I think I know better than you what kind of person Huo Huan is. We met overseas, and he was very simple. He also loves people very much. Being with him is much happier than being with you! It is indeed a great decision to divorce you! "

" Cai! What do you mean?! You clearly know that I wasn't... "

" Enough, Shen Xun. I don't want to hear your explanation. What happened is something that you will never be able to stop, and it is also irreversible. You already have a new choice, so you should pay a certain price for it! "

"So, the reason you came back this time is to take revenge on me. Right?"

I looked at the disbelief and grief in Shen Xun's eyes. For some reason, my heart softened.

I turned my head and tried my best to remain calm. Why would I be soft-hearted to a man who had once ruthlessly abandoned me? Wasn't it because of my soft-heartedness that Luo Yuxian was able to succeed?

I calmed my emotions and allowed my weakness to be suppressed by my heart step by step. Only then did I regain my reason.

"You are wrong, Shen Xun. I didn't come back this time to take revenge on you. In my heart, you are no longer that important. The current me is no longer the same as I was in the past. I can let go of my past, let go of my hatred, and let go of you."
