"After the storm had passed, why didn’t you contact me? Also, when did you come back, and why did I only see you yesterday?"
Facing her sharp questions, Tang Yuchen pressed his thin lips tightly, not knowing how to respond.
His silence made her a bit uneasy.
"What’s wrong? Has something happened?"
The man said in a deep voice, "An Ruo, Ke Ren isn’t dead."
An Ruo was stunned, then her eyes widened in shock.
Many questions flashed through her mind quickly.
Why wasn’t Lan Keren dead?
Why was he telling her this, did he want to continue being with her?
And back then, they had become husband and wife, were they still now?
An Ruo’s mind was exceptionally calm, but her hands and feet were ice cold.
"...And then? Why are you telling me this?" she murmured.
Tang Yuchen didn’t dare to look into her eyes. He rose and walked to the balcony, placing his hands on the railing and gripping it tightly.
"Ke Ren has connections with the royal family of Country A. After I went to Country A, I met her. She helped me establish TLA, and she came back with me this time..."
Every single word he said felt like a heavy stone, pressing down hard on her chest, making it difficult for her to breathe.
She wasn’t a fool, there was a deeper meaning behind his words.
"Are you trying to say that you stayed with her to get her help?"
Tang Yuchen gripped the railing even tighter, his voice low, "The marriage we registered in Country A all those years ago is still valid, we are still husband and wife now."
An Ruo felt as if something exploded in her mind, causing her head to spin and her blood to run backward.
She quickly steadied herself with the help of the table, managing to control her shaking body.
Luckily, she was facing away from him; otherwise, her appearance right now would certainly look ridiculous.
"Tang Yuchen, what exactly do you mean?" After a while, she asked through clenched teeth.
"You told me that Lan Keren was dead, why is she still alive?"
Why do you say you love me over and over, but in the end, still choose to be with someone else?
An Ruo had too many questions to ask, yet she couldn’t, knowing more would only make her heart ache more painfully.
Tang Yuchen didn’t turn around, and she couldn’t see his expression at the moment.
"Ke Ren was dead, but her body was well preserved, and someone revived her. An Ruo, in order to defeat Tang Yushen, I had to have her help."
So it was for this reason...
Can men always be so unscrupulous for their goals?
An Ruo suddenly felt that the pain of the past two years was ironic; she had cried every day for him, but what about him?
He was living well in Country A, together with Lan Keren.
His love for her, was it completely frail?
