Chapter 710: In the End, She Became a Joke
Ji Xiangling looked pale as she gazed at Song Yansheng.
In all these years of knowing him, this was the first time she saw Song Yansheng so indifferent towards her.
But thinking carefully, had he ever been passionate towards her?
It seemed not.
He was always so aloof. She would speak to him, say a lot, and he would only respond with a couple of indifferent words.
He rarely smiled at her, only occasionally, when she became quiet, would he give her a faint smile.
At those times, she thought maybe he liked her, just that he had gone through so much, his heart had grown cold and he no longer knew how to express love.
But now she finally realized, it wasn’t that he didn’t know how to express love, he was just too clear on how to express not loving.
He really didn’t have any romantic feelings for her, he truly didn’t like her.
She gave a cold laugh and said, "Since everyone has a bottom line and you hold yours so dearly, why did you marry Shi Nuan then? She’s your nephew’s fiancée, eight years younger than you, you’re from completely different worlds..."
"Then who is from the same world as me? You?" Song Yansheng lowered his gaze, swirling the wine in his glass.
The crimson liquid swayed in the glass, but his expression remained calm.
He said, "Xiangling, we once got along as pleasant friends, that period is a decent memory for me. I don’t want you to destroy all of it with your own hands, you understand what I mean..."
Ji Xiangling’s eyes narrowed, her heart trembled momentarily.
She looked at him, and he, his expression very calm, tilted his head back and took a sip of red wine.
His attractive Adam’s apple moved, then he gracefully placed the glass down, his eyes looking at her.
His eyes were dark and profound, unfathomable, reflecting the dazzling light of the indoor chandeliers.
Making it such that one didn’t dare to meet his eyes.
Xiangling bit her lip, her eyes tingled a bit, she took a breath, "A Yu, you know my personality, the more you don’t want me to do something, sometimes, the more I’ll do it..."
"Then you will pay a heavy price for that!"
It was an unreserved threat.
With no sentiment left.
Ji Xiangling bit her lip, her gaze stubborn yet sorrowful, "A Yu, I accompanied you abroad for seven years..."
"So what?"
"Even if you don’t want to have a relationship with me, you can’t treat me like this..."
"Then how should I treat you?" Song Yansheng crossed his hands, fingers resting under his chin, looking at her.
He said, "Xiangling, you shouldn’t have returned to the country because honestly, I don’t want to see you!"
Ji Xiangling was stunned, then she smiled with her lips curled, "You are even more ruthless than I imagined... many times over!"
"If you continue to ignore what I said to you that day, I can be even more ruthless..."
What did he say that day?
Ji Xiangling recalled.
She remembered.
That day Song Yansheng said—
[Shi Nuan is now my wife, the woman I intend to spend my life with!
And I cherish this marriage very much, I don’t want anyone else to disturb my marriage...
Remember, I said anyone!]
Yes, that day, he already spoke the threatening words.
So now being so ruthless was understandable.
Because, this was Song Yansheng, the one with the cold heart, even cold-blooded Song Yansheng.
The so-called past affections, he wouldn’t spare a thought for, at least not for her.
What was she to him? Seven years accompanying him abroad, six years striving just to prove herself...
Thirteen years of validation in total, she ultimately turned into a joke.
A joke, just that.
