So she fell recklessly in love with him and married him, regardless of everything.
She believed that as long as she truly loved him, he would love her one day.
It was this naivety that destroyed her happiness and gave her endless pain. She was too naive. How many people in wealthy families are kind and have no guile?
Perhaps from the moment she married him, he saw through all her thoughts. He might have been laughing at her foolish thoughts all along.
The more Jian Yufei dissected herself, the more regret and shame she felt.
At the same time, she was also extremely sad.
If she hadn’t married Ruan Tianling, she wouldn’t be suffering as she was now, and she wouldn’t be going through an excruciating metamorphosis, growing so quickly.
Yes, she was just under twenty-two years old. How many girls of this age have experienced the vicissitudes of life and grown so rapidly as her?
Girls of this age should be living a simple, joyous and blooming age…
Yet, she was growing rapidly with her life. The faster she grew, the faster she would wither.
A tear dropped gently on a white piano key.
Ruan Tianling’s voice sounded behind her, deep and low, “Why did you stop?”
Jian Yufei raised her head, her eyes void of tears, her face calm.
She turned towards him, the man leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window, a cigarette between his fingers, with few scattered cigarette butts on the ground.
She moved her gaze away, looking into the darkened mountains in the distance.
“Can’t continue playing?” The man raised his eyebrows and casually dropped the cigarette to the ground. The faint fire from the cigarette flickered in the dim light.
“Yes, I can’t play anymore. Wasn’t it your goal to punish me? Now I’m tired, unable to play, aren’t you satisfied?”
Her indifferent tone sounded like a cold, aggressive response.
Ruan Tianling straightened up and said coldly, “What have I punished you for? You love playing the piano, and I let you play till you’re satisfied. I’ve been trying to make you happy, what’s there to be dissatisfied about?”
“I don’t want to play anymore. I have played enough. Isn’t that enough?” Jian Yufei retorted coldly, her tone filled with anger.
The man’s eyes narrowed slightly.
If she had said a few soft words of concession at this moment, he could have spared her.
But she was defiant, and he, even more so, a tyrant—prospering those who obeyed him, destroying those who defied him!
When she defied him, he sought even more to dominate her.
Ruan Tianling’s thin lips parted, speaking coldly, “No! Take a ten-minute break, then continue!”
She had been playing by his rule for so long, he couldn’t push her any further!
Jian Yufei’s repressed fury could no longer be contained. She swiftly rose and headed outside.
“Play it yourself if you want to, I don’t have the time to accompany you!”
“You stay right there!”
She did not stop, completely ignoring his imperious tone.
“Don’t you want to save that man’s restaurant?”
Jian Yufei suddenly took off her high heels and turned to confront him with the tip of the heel, “Do whatever you want! No matter what I do, you’re not satisfied. If you find me so displeasing, why don’t you sign the divorce agreement! Aren’t you extraordinary, fearing no one? If you’re so capable, sign the agreement! If you’re so capable, don’t care about any consequences and divorce me now!”
“Jian Yufei!” Ruan Tianling squinted his cold and intense eyes. His whole body taut, he took several strides towards her, gripping her chin like a vise.
