"About what?" Mo Cheng Jun who was stopped did not insist on hugging her, but took the opportunity to pull her hand, and looked down at her eyes from top to bottom.
"We... Let's get divorced! "
Chen Zi Tong said with some difficulty, her eyes avoiding his, not daring to look him in the eye.
"What did you say?" Mo Cheng Jun was startled, as if he didn't hear what she had said clearly.
Ignoring the dull ache in her heart, she pretended to be heartless as she pulled her hand out from his. Looking at the calm water surface, her lips curled up into a cold arc.
"Chen Zi Tong!" Mo Cheng Jun hadn't called her by name for a long time, "Don't joke with me, this joke isn't funny at all."
"Mo Cheng Jun." Chen Zi Tong replied in a soft voice, it was unknown whether she was calling him or talking to herself.
"I knew you were joking, right?" Hearing her speak, Mo Cheng Jun seemed to heave a sigh of relief, he went forward again and embraced her from behind.
Without struggling anymore, Chen Zi Tong allowed Mo Cheng Jun to hug her. After a long while, she finally opened her mouth and said — —
"Mo Cheng Jun, I really want to thank you. I want to thank you for helping me buy a sanitary towel, for protecting me while I was in the ward without asking whether I was right or wrong, for allowing me to be willful, for shielding me from the elements during such a dangerous time, for taking such a step back for me, for bringing me here … But gratitude is not the same as love. I can't convince myself to pretend to love you, so. Divorce, and let each other go. "
Her disobedient words were extremely coherent.
That's true. How can it not be coherent? In the past, she had already practiced in her heart countless times, but today Feng Feng's appearance had made her hesitant heart firmer!
"Thank? "Love?" Mo Cheng Jun mulled over these two words in his mouth, and the hand around her waist loosened as well.
Chen Zi Tong took the opportunity to take two more steps forward. With her back facing him, a tear fell from her eyes, but it was quickly wiped away by her. She fiercely said to herself in her heart —
"Chen Zi Tong, didn't you want a divorce in the beginning? Isn't it better to be divorced now? Wasn't it freer to be alone? "No one will restrict my movements anymore. No one will care if they eat spicy food or not. How great it is …"
However, a strong voice retorted in his heart, "Actually, it's not good. You know it. Why do you have to deceive yourself?"
Looking at Chen Zi Tong who was a few steps away from him, Mo Cheng Jun seemed to have an illusion that he was so close to the heavens. It had been a long time since he had shown his ruthlessness in front of her, and he was so angry that he still maintained his rationality.
He quickly stepped forward and the two of them focused on the bow of the boat, causing the heavy body of the boat to sway.
"Not love? Chen Zi Tong, do you have a heart? " Walking in front of Chen Zi Tong, Mo Cheng Jun stood at the front of the bow of the ship. He grabbed onto her slender waist, and looked straight into her eyes, as if he wanted to find evidence that she was lying.
"Mo Cheng Jun, I really tried. I tried to force myself to love you, but I really couldn't." Lowering his eyes, Chen Zi Tong took out his lifetime worth of acting, and pretended to have a cold and indifferent expression on his face.
The familiar words made Chen Zi Tong slightly dazed, and she couldn't help but recall that time. If she had been a bit more resolute, would she not have suffered today?
Obviously... At that time, he hadn't hesitated at all when he said that he would get divorced. Why was his heart so sore now? It was as if a vinegar bottle had been turned over and his heart was soaked in acid, the pain almost numbing.
"Zi Tong, stop messing around alright? My name is Cheng Jun, you are called Zi Tong, shouldn't the Sovereign King's good Zi Tong stay by his side? " Mo Cheng Jun lowered his stance to its lowest point, and even started to come up with names in a hurry.
Wasn't the ancient emperor calling the empress Zi Tong? His name, Mo Cheng Jun, was a metaphor for him to become the invisible emperor of a modern empire, so they were … It was destined to be a pair!
"I can change my name!" With a heart that was extremely sore, Chen Zi Tong clenched his nails tightly in his palms.
The dignified Mohist Group, for the sake of her humbleness, had her heart broken down. If it wasn't for that lunatic, how could she be like this?
With boundless hatred born from his heart, Chen Zi Tong suddenly had the urge to perish together with Feng Chen.
"You made up your mind, didn't you?" Mo Cheng Jun suddenly stopped his long-winded speech, his black eyes releasing a blazing light, "Maybe, I shouldn't be so gentle!"
The headless words made Chen Zi Tong have an extremely bad premonition. The sense of danger was slowly approaching, and it gradually made her panic.
"You have to do it. "Ugh …" Before she even finished speaking, Mo Cheng Jun had already pounced on her like a hungry wolf pouncing on its prey.
Chen Zi Tong who was suddenly attacked shook her head and avoided his kiss, but could not avoid it. She could only whimper in protest.
