"Do you want to know?" Tong Zhitong looked at An Nuan's calm expression, full of smugness.
An Nuan chose silence.
She was deliberately dragging things out now.
She didn't know if what Tong Zhitong said was true or not.
But she firmly believed that Ye Jinghuai would come to save her.
"I won't tell you either," Tong Zhitong said. "In this world, only the people closest to Ye Jinghuai, only the people Ye Jinghuai trusts the most, know who exactly Ye Jinghuai is, what exactly Ye Jinghuai is going to do. You don't have the right!"
"Even so," An Nuan looked at Tong Zhitong, "even if Ye Jinghuai has very important things to do right now and won't show up to save me, when he finds out that you killed me, he still won't let you off!"
"An Nuan, you think too highly of yourself!" Tong Zhitong ridiculed her extremely. "Ye Jinghuai won't kill me in his whole life. Because I once...had an abortion for him."
An Nuan's expression clearly changed.
She had always felt that no matter how much of a playboy Ye Jinghuai was, fooling around unrestrainedly in the flowery world like most debauched young masters, he would absolutely not go as far as toying with a woman to the point of getting her pregnant and forcing her to have an abortion...
She had always believed that Ye Jinghuai knew where to draw the line.
Hearing Tong Zhitong say this now, she still felt some inexplicable emotions in her heart.
"Jealous?" Seeing the change in An Nuan's emotions, Tong Zhitong smiled smugly.
"No," An Nuan looked straight at Tong Zhitong. "This can only show how little Ye Jinghuai cared for you! He didn't even care for you as much as the other women he fooled around with. After all, if a man has any conscience at all, he wouldn't hurt a woman's body. The fact that Ye Jinghuai didn't care enough to let you get pregnant and have an abortion for him...shows how little he valued you."
"An Nuan!" Tong Zhitong's expression turned cold.
Hearing An Nuan's ridicule, her face turned pale.
"You don't know what happened between us at all, how can you conclusively say that Ye Jinghuai didn't care about me!" Tong Zhitong yelled angrily.
An Nuan really didn't know.
The only reason she was doing this was to buy time.
She was very clear that the only reason Tong Zhitong didn't kill her on the spot in the car accident was because she wanted to torment her, to see her humiliation, to vent Tong Zhitong's own emotions. If she showed weakness now, Tong Zhitong would lose the sadistic pleasure of tormenting her and would immediately take her life.
At this moment, the only thing she could do was to try every means to provoke Tong Zhitong.
To make Tong Zhitong feel that killing her would be letting her off too easily!
"You're right, Ye Jinghuai really didn't care about me," Tong Zhitong suddenly admitted it too.
An Nuan couldn't help but feel a bit of shock.
She was genuinely worried about Tong Zhitong's abnormal reversal, afraid that she would suddenly take her life.
"To be precise, Ye Jinghuai doesn't care about anyone, including you! It's true that Ye Jinghuai can kill people, that he can kill anyone who blocks his path, but he won't kill for you," Tong Zhitong said very firmly.
An Nuan found it a little hard to grasp what she meant.
What did she mean, he would kill anyone?
Was Ye Jinghuai some kind of homicidal maniac?
"The only person Ye Jinghuai would go all out for, throw everything aside for, isn't me, isn't you either!" Tong Zhitong said, even laughing hysterically, "Isn't it heartbreaking, don't you feel the same as me, using up all your effort but still unable to get a single glance or smile from Ye Jinghuai, feeling that no matter how hard you try, you can never be the most important person in Ye Jinghuai's heart?!"
"What are you talking about?!" An Nuan frowned.
At this moment, she truly didn't understand Tong Zhitong's confused rambling.
She even felt that Tong Zhitong was talking to herself.
As if she was venting all those years of pent-up grievances.
And the people around simply couldn't understand it.
"It doesn't matter if you don't know what I'm talking about. I already told you, you don't have the right to know either. But before you die, I can spill some things to balance out your heart a little. That is, I may really die too, killed by Ye Jinghuai. But the reason for my death definitely won't be because of you." Tong Zhitong's face was cold and bleak.
It was as if she had seen the disastrous outcome of her own future.
An Nuan knitted her brows.
She stared hard at Tong Zhitong, staring at her sudden emotional outburst, feeling a little caught off guard.
An Nuan suddenly felt.
Was Tong Zhitong embracing the idea of taking her down with her in dealing with her?!
If that was really the case...
An Nuan couldn't help but feel a little frightened.
When someone isn't even afraid of death anymore, what else would they be afraid of?!
"An Nuan, you should actually thank me," Tong Zhitong stared hard at An Nuan, telling her word for word, "Thank me for letting you die by my hands, otherwise who knows which day you might suddenly die by Ye Jinghuai's hands, and that would probably be a hundred times more painful than now."
Why would she die by Ye Jinghuai's hands?
Just what kind of terrifying person was Ye Jinghuai's existence.
Just who was Ye Jinghuai?!
To make one feel such horror to the bone.
"Tong Zhitong, I don't know if you're currently stimulated to the point of mental confusion, or if you're truly conveying me some facts. Actually from the start I never cared what kind of relationship you and Ye Jinghuai had, or what kind of person Ye Jinghuai actually was. Frankly, the marriage between me and Ye Jinghuai was nothing but a formality, all the intimacy we displayed to outsiders was an act for show, in private we were merely business partners who came to a mutually beneficial agreement!" Seeing that Tong Zhitong no longer feared anything now, An Nuan decided to lay all her cards on the table, "Even just now when I threatened you by saying Ye Jinghuai would kill you for me, that was just to get you to let me go. In fact, I'm clearer than you that Ye Jinghuai won't do anything for me!"
Now that Tong Zhitong no longer feared anything,
Then strike at what she cared about the most!
What Tong Zhitong cared about the most was whether Ye Jinghuai had fallen in love with her!
What she couldn't accept the most was Ye Jinghuai falling in love with another woman.
She would rather Ye Jinghuai didn't love her, as long as he loved no one else!
Clearly.
Tong Zhitong's expression did change a little at that moment.
On that deathly pale face, there was suddenly a bit of colour.
It couldn't be said to be delighted.
It just made people feel that there were now some thoughts.
But this state only lasted a few seconds.
After a few seconds, she said indifferently, "I used to think that yours was a marriage of convenience too. From my understanding of Ye Jinghuai, it was impossible for him to fall in love with any woman. But Ye Jingxuan told me that Ye Jinghuai had liked you for a long time already."
She was very clear that Ye Jingxuan would not lie to her!
So even when Ye Jingxuan said this to her dismissively at the time.
From that moment, she started acknowledging that Ye Jinghuai's feelings for An Nuan were real, that Ye Jinghuai had truly fallen for An Nuan.
An Nuan denied in disbelief, "That's impossible."
