An Ruo remained silent for a while, took a deep breath, and looked up to face Tang Yuchen, "You said no matter what my choice is, you would respect it, right?"
Tang Yuchen’s lips were tightly pursed, his cold eyes seeming to penetrate her.
An Ruo looked away and asked him again, "Do your words really count?"
"Of course they count," the man’s lips curled into a mischievous smile, his tone frivolous, "Tell me, who have you chosen to be your man?"
A flicker of humiliation crossed An Ruo’s eyes. Yun Feiyang clenched his jaw and said coldly to him, "Tang Yuchen, please don’t speak to An Ruo that way!"
"I’m just telling the truth. How is that insulting?" Tang Yuchen shamelessly raised his eyebrows, "Besides, I was originally her man. When she chooses you, won’t you touch her, won’t you sleep with her?"
"You!" Yun Feiyang was furious.
An Ruo pushed him away, a flicker of disgust in her eyes.
She didn’t want to stay near this man for a second.
She needed to escape him, to breathe fresh air, to get away from this demon completely!
An Ruo gathered her courage and walked boldly over to Yun Feiyang, took his hand assertively, and looked firmly at Tang Yuchen, "I choose Yun Feiyang. I like him; I choose him!"
"An Ruo!" Yun Feiyang looked at her joyfully, his tone and eyes filled with ecstasy and disbelief. "Do you really... choose me?"
An Ruo smiled at him and nodded, "Yes, I choose you, Yun Feiyang. It’s true, I was once Tang Yuchen’s woman. Will you despise me for it?"
"No way!" He shook his head vigorously, his broad hand gripping hers tightly, giving her great confidence and strength.
"An Ruo, no matter what your past was, I like you and only want to be with you. I’m so glad you chose me, and I’m happy you like me too..." Yun Feiyang looked at her tenderly and passionately, his eyes brimming with deep love.
An Ruo couldn’t help but laugh, a laugh filled with happiness.
Meanwhile, Tang Yuchen’s expression darkened horribly, his pitch-black eyes brewing a terrifying tempest.
His fierce gaze was fixed on An Ruo, like an angry beast, almost as if he wanted to leap forward and tear her to pieces.
An Ruo, noticing his gaze, looked at him uneasily, gathering all her courage to meet his eyes bravely and asked him, "I have chosen Yun Feiyang. Tang Yuchen, will you respect my choice?"
Tang Yuchen stared at her without speaking. His lips pressed into a line, increasing An Ruo’s anxiety as she feared what Tang Yuchen might do.
"You said your words count, didn’t you?"
"An Ruo, I didn’t expect you to be so bold," he finally spoke, his voice very deep and chilling.
Feeling An Ruo’s tremble, Yun Feiyang stepped forward to shield her, confronting Tang Yuchen coldly.
"Mr. Tang, I officially declare to you that from today onwards, An Ruo is my girlfriend, and she will be my fiancée. I will marry her, so please keep your distance from her in the future!"
An Ruo, stunned, watched Yun Feiyang’s broad back, overwhelmed by shock.
She had not expected him to say these words. He actually said he would marry her...
Her heart felt joyous, blissful, and deeply moved.
But somehow, she always felt that happiness came too quickly and too easily, making it seem unreal and unsettling.
Tang Yuchen was silent for two seconds, then suddenly burst into loud laughter.
