If you love each other, why can't you be together? His life was short and bitter. To be able to spend his life with his beloved, how blissful would that be!
Besides, my parents have both died, and I don't have a family member by my side. If I don't have Lin Yufan, what difference does it make if I live or die? At first, I decided to sacrifice myself for his mother, but I didn't think that his mother and Gu Yifei would silently kill my mother.
Why should I help my enemies? Why leave my dearest one for my enemies?
Thus, I came here recklessly.
Since I'm here, I won't let go so easily. If I can still breathe, I will fight until the end.
Even though all the gazes of blame were directed at me, and I couldn't make out the meaning behind Lin Yufan's eyes, I couldn't back down. Once I retreated, my fate with Lin Yufan would be over.
I tightly grabbed onto Lin Yufan's arm. Earlier, it was him who was holding onto my hand, but now, with my other free arm, I grabbed onto his arm. I widened my eyes and made one last insistence, "Lin Yufan, I know you love me. "Now, I only need a single word from you to fulfill your wish."
I looked at Lin Yufan. As I said this, tears slowly seeped out of my eyes, but I did my best to suppress them.
I deliberately smiled in a relaxed manner, but Lin Yufan should have been able to see how many tears there were in my smile and how much pain my heart was in. "I'm just asking you, do you want me or her? Answer me, if you say choose her, I'll leave now. "
Gu Yifei was trembling with anxiety, wishing that she could grab onto one of Lin Yufan's arms.
I know that if Lin Yufan chose me, then I really "caused a ruckus" and produced the result I wanted. If I chose her, then it would be just like what I thought before; I would become a "clown" for life in Lin Yufan's heart.
But it didn't matter.
I saw that Lin Yufan had let go of my hand, and Gu Yifei's taut face revealed an imperceptible smile.
When Lin Yufan's mother saw this, the nervousness on her face eased up by quite a bit, but my heart was like an ice cube that fell straight into the abyss.
"Alright, Yufan, let's go." As Lin Yufan's mother said this, she reached out and grabbed his arm. At the same time, she used her eyes to signal the security guards to drag me away.
The security guard came toward me again.
Just when I felt the whole world buzz, I saw Lin Yufan release Gu Yifei's hand.
My ears were buzzing. I couldn't tell if it was my ears ringing or if there was a plane flying in the sky, or if it was some other sound, but I still heard Lin Yufan's words. "I'm sorry, I'll go with her."
I saw Gu Yifei hold his head in one hand, and if it weren't for the security guard beside him helping her up, he would have fallen to the ground, "Lin Yufan, what did you say? Are you joking?! "
"Yufan, don't be fooled by this fox spirit. She's here to cause trouble!" Lin Yufan's mother also shouted from the side.
"Yufan, she came to lie to you. She didn't have anything, so she came to your side for your money. You are such a rational person, why are you so confused when you see her? Yufan, she is really doing this for money! " Gu Yifei cried on the side, unable to hold back her tears.
Gu Yifei was such a domineering person. Looking at Lin Yufan, she suddenly opened her mouth and burst into tears.
Standing beside Lin Yufan, I couldn't help but tear up.
"Yufan, you can't do this. The relatives and friends of both sides know that you're getting married. The reporters have also started reporting on this matter. You can't be so irrational!" Lin Yufan's mother looked at him and advised him anxiously.
Lin Yufan's eyes were slightly red. Looking at his mother, he deeply bowed and said, "Sorry mother, I also want to be rational … But love is so irrational, I'm sorry! "
After Lin Yufan finished speaking, he grabbed my hand and strode out of the door.
"Yufan —" Lin Yufan's mother was still shouting behind him.
"Lin Yufan —"
"Ah …"
All kinds of screams and sobbing were left behind us. At that time, I felt like I was in a dream as Lin Yufan pulled me by the hand and I strode onto the elevator. I held my breath, not daring to speak.
Lin Yufan didn't say anything, he just stuffed me into the passenger seat. It was as simple and crude as stuffing rotten cotton into a trash can. He then sat in the driver's seat and started the engine.
I opened my mouth, but was unable to say a single word. I could only blankly stare at the carved, unswerving, and resolute side of Lin Yufan's face.
Lin Yufan also did not speak. His eyes stared straight ahead, as if he was holding his breath and driving.
His cell phone rang.
Lin Yuefan picked up the phone. His voice was unusually calm, "Mom, I've never been clearer than now. I love her! If I were to marry Gu Yifei for the sake of face and responsibility, then I would be truly irresponsible. In the future, I wouldn't be the only one who would be hurt. "Mom, I'm your son. I hope you can help me."
Lin Yufan slowly hung up.
I sat beside him and stared at him. It was as if we had just come out of a cannon fire. It was as if we had just experienced a hail of bullets. That kind of feeling was as though we had experienced a life and death battle.
"I... Love you. " Looking at Lin Yufan, I said in a daze.
Lin Yufan did not turn his head or speak, maintaining his resolute expression as he drove.
The car slowly drove out of the city. In an empty area, Lin Yufan stopped the car.
He got out of the car first, then opened my door and pulled me out.
I didn't know what he was going to do, so I followed him. Lin Yufan walked in front with big strides, and I followed him with difficulty, almost jogging. He didn't take a flat road, but a dirt road in the woods.
Perhaps it was because of the recent rain, but the path was uneven and my feet were sprained, but Lin Yufan stopped for a moment, frowned, and continued to lead me forward as if he was punishing me.
I struggled to keep up with him.
It didn't matter. As long as Lin Yufan was around, it didn't matter even if the sky collapsed or the ground collapsed.
I gritted my teeth and continued to follow him, enduring the pain. When Lin Yufan saw my expression, he finally stopped and panted heavily.
Leaning under a poplar tree, he took out his cigarette, lit it up, and took a deep drag from it.
"You want to scold me …" "Just curse, I know, I …" I looked at Lin Yufan and stammered.
At this moment, I felt happy no matter how much Lin Yufan punished me, because from the moment he let go of Gu Yifei's hand and pulled me into the car, my world had already bloomed with flowers and filled the mountains with flowers.
As long as she could be with him, she would be happy.
Even if he were to beat me up, I wouldn't feel pain from it, much less if he were to scold me right now.
Although my feet still hurt, but the happiness in my heart made me feel that it was nothing.
"Eight o'clock, you really are a devil! Do you know about demons?! " "You know how much effort I put in to convince myself that I agreed to my mother's request to marry Gu Yifei, and how determined I am to forget about you, forget about a woman who violated my bottom line and lied to me —!"
