He didn't even look at me. I almost thought he was dead.
"Ruo Ruo, what happened to you?" I pretended to be concerned about him and didn't mention seeing him today.
Cheng Ruojun nodded and accepted the towel that I passed to him, then said, "There's a feast tomorrow night."
Cheng Ruojun turned his head and looked at me without saying a word.
"Seems like he hasn't." The smile on my face widened. "What do you want me to do?" I asked.
Cheng Ruojun just stared at me. In the past, his gaze would make me afraid, but now, I am not, and I even found him like this was a little funny, just like a stray dog that has been abandoned by its owner.
"Ruo Lin?" I called his name and sat down on the edge of the tub, running my fingertips along his cheek, which was burning, and I knew it was because he'd just gotten out of the hot water, not because of me.
Cheng Ruojun stared at me, his gaze gradually becoming ambiguous, but I was not in the mood right now.
"Our time is up." I know that a wife like me gives you too much pressure from the start. You should have married a better person, and if you had married the right woman, I think you would be very happy now.
If it was in the past, Cheng Ruojun would definitely refute me, and immediately reject my idea. But he did not move, and only looked at me with a weak gaze.
"Ruo Ruo, I've decided to leave you." It was just as Xia Ze said. Right now is the best time for me to leave Cheng Ruojun.
I waited for Cheng Ruojun's answer, in truth, his answer wasn't important to me, since I didn't plan to listen to it anyway.
It was as if he did not hear a word I said, but in the next second, he suddenly reached out his hand and grabbed my neck. I thought he would hug me, but he did not.
I was pressed into the bath by him, the water soaking my face, the water pouring into my nose and mouth, caught off guard, I couldn't breathe, my eyes, my nose, my throat were burning, and I felt like I was going to die.
Cheng Ruojun kept pressing down on my head, his hand gradually tightening, as if he was going to strangle me to death.
I didn't struggle, I just silently waited for him to strangle me. I knew he was unwilling, or even if he strangled me to death, I wasn't afraid.
Finally, Cheng Ruojun seemed to be out of breath, he fished me out of the water, I woke up from the water, my entire body was in a daze, I was not sure how much water I had drank, my tears couldn't help but flow, my nose was sore.
Cheng Ruojun asked me to look at him, and I stared at his face. At the beginning, his face was very blurry, but it gradually became clear.
He pursed his lips. The weakness and confusion were gone, his eyes were back to savagery, but it was funny to me that he was like this.
"I said you were not to leave me. You would never leave me. I am the only one alive. You are my wife, unless I am dead."
He said this very firmly and firmly in my ears, but I found it very funny. If it was before what happened today, I would have thought it was because he was reluctant to part with it, because he was a psychopath. However, after abandoning me today, he only made me feel that he was bluffing.
Furthermore, he treated me so roughly. I had thought that he would be able to endure for a long time.
I just stared at Cheng Ruojun without saying a word.
Cheng Ruojun also looked at me, he seemed to be dissatisfied with my expression, he once again pushed me into the water, I couldn't hear anything, and I couldn't see anything, but this kind of feeling didn't make me feel displeased.
After Cheng Ruojun had done this three times, I was tormented to the point where my entire body had no strength left, and I felt like I was going to die soon. I collapsed onto the ground, and he finally decided to let me go.
"Don't try to leave me." Cheng Ruojun told me in a low voice that the threat in his tone made me shudder.
He went out and left me alone in the bathroom.
I stared at his back as he left and couldn't help but laugh. I silently said in my heart, 'I insist. Do you think that I will still listen to you until today?'
I won't.
Since you won't let me appear at the banquet, then I will give you a magnificent appearance.
I thought of the reporters who had crowded outside the door today. They had some uses, too. Didn't they want to interview me? Didn't you want to see my sorry state? Wasn't it just to dig up some dirty news?
I'll satisfy all of you.
I put my hands on the ground and tried to get up. I tried once and fell back to the ground.
I'm not going to let you do it, never again.
I took a break and came out of the bathroom. It was three o'clock in the morning, and there was already a bit of light in the sky outside.
Cheng Ruojun lied on the bed. He looked like he had already fallen asleep, and the posture he adopted was still that of curling up his entire body. He hugged himself, as if it was because of the cold.
I glanced at him before climbing onto the other side of the bed. I stared at the ceiling, which had exquisite patterns on it. Even with the moonlight, I couldn't see it clearly.
I'll dress up for the party tomorrow, so I have to make sure I get enough sleep to make myself perfect.
I closed my eyes, and I stopped thinking about all this nonsense, but right at that moment, Cheng Ruojun, who was beside me, suddenly moved, he turned around and hugged me tightly into his embrace. His hands held onto me tightly, and I did not feel any malicious intent, I knew that he was worried that I would leave him, that he needed me.
It's just that I don't have any good feelings for this almost suffocating love. I just want to get rid of him as soon as possible.
"Don't leave me." I heard Cheng Ruojun say that his voice was very low, as if he was talking to himself, but I knew that he wasn't. Otherwise, he wouldn't have made such a gesture.
I was silent.
