Gu Yao looked at Shangguan Yu’s heartless face, tears streaming down her cheeks, too pained to utter a word.
Indeed, repeatedly demeaning herself was just self-torture.
Gu Yao clumsily wiped her tears, nodded her head, and hoarsely said, "Okay, I won’t bother you anymore."
After she spoke those words, she took a deep look at Shangguan Yu, then turned and walked away, eventually running out of the gate...
Shangguan Yu watched her hurriedly running figure, tears instantly welling up in his eyes.
Beneath his tear-clouded eyes, there was nothing but disarray, heartache, and helplessness.
He let go of Wen Xiao’ai’s hand and felt as if all his strength had been drained, barely managing to steady himself by holding onto the edge of the table.
Between them, it was finally over.
His heart was once again empty.
Yaoyao, forget the past and me, take good care of yourself, and live your own life.
"What’s wrong with you?" Wen Xiao’ai asked curiously.
Seeing Shangguan Yu did not respond, she moved in front of him.
Shangguan Yu turned his head away, flusteredly wiping his tears, then smiled at Wen Xiao’ai, "It’s nothing, what’s up?"
"You look really ugly when you cry and laugh at the same time." Wen Xiao’ai pointed at the tear marks on his face with her little finger.
"Who’s crying? You must have poor eyesight. Does Jun Moyan usually skimp on your food so much that you can’t even see well?"
"Hmph, petty, despicable, cheater, bad guy." ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ novel✶fire.net
How come these curse words sound so familiar?
Shangguan Yu remembered, weren’t these the words he used to curse Jun Moyan just a few minutes ago?
"You shouldn’t learn these swears."
"Why can you use them, but I can’t?"
"It is different; it’s not good for a girl to swear . You should act like a good baby so that more people will like you."
Wen Xiao’ai placed her hands on her hips, thinking Shangguan Yu was just spouting nonsense, "You just made that girl cry, and you dragged me into making her cry too, then talked nonsense about wanting to marry me. Calling you names is putting it lightly."
She knew what marrying meant; it was two people getting married and living together afterward.
Just like Elder Ye and Auntie Ye, and maybe later, they might even have a baby like Brother Ye Qi.
So she definitely didn’t want him to marry her, even though she knew he said it just to make that girl hear, she still disliked hearing anyone talk about marrying her.
It should be Jun Moyan who says that!
"You don’t understand the situation, and about me saying I liked you and wanted to marry you, that was all nonsense. Don’t mind it." Shangguan Yu said, his eyes downcast and his expression somber.
"Hmph, I don’t even want to understand your matters. Anyway, whatever it is, making a girl cry is not right, and even though it clearly upsets you as well, I really don’t get why you would intentionally say that."
Wen Xiao’ai pouted, indicating their world was too complicated while hers and Jun Moyan’s was simpler.
Jun Moyan likes her, and she likes Jun Moyan too. How nice is that?
"Who made whom cry?" a familiar voice sounded, and Wen Xiao’ai’s eyes lit up.
Turning her head, she saw Jun Moyan standing behind her.
"Jun Moyan." Wen Xiao’ai happily stepped forward and hugged Jun Moyan’s waist.
Jun Moyan raised his hand and patted her little head, "Have you eaten?"
Wen Xiao’ai tilted her face upward, looking somewhat unhappily at Jun Moyan, "Jun Moyan, let’s go home."
