Xu Ruo Wei was stunned by Shen Xi Zhou's words, but a smile still lingered on her face.
She knew better than anyone that even if Shen Xi Zhou refused to admit it, what was happening before them could not be simply dismissed as he wished. And his desire to drive her away, to have no connection with her, was simply impossible.
After all, no matter what happened in this life, she would never leave Shen Xi Zhou's side.
"Shen Xi Zhou, I know you want to drive me away, right?"
"But Shen Xi Zhou, I won't give you this chance."
"Shen Xi Zhou, I know you don't have me in your heart. Of course, no matter how much I do, you won't fall in love with me. I understand this better than anyone. I am clear about it."
"But I also know you want to shake me off and be with An Nuan, right?"
A cold, bloodthirsty smile spread across Xu Ruo Wei's face as she said, "But if I don't have a good time, then you won't have one either."
"Shen Xi Zhou, I know you must hate me immensely right now, perhaps even want to kill me? But Shen Xi Zhou, I can't bear to let you go. I'm thinking that as long as I can stay by your side, in time, you will surely see my worth."
"Xi Zhou, if you hate me, then just keep hating me."
"I believe that one day, you will know that I am the one who treats you best in the whole world."
Shen Xi Zhou's gaze fell on An Nuan. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he said nothing.
Because he didn't know what to say.
Even if he did, An Nuan wouldn't believe him.
In fact, she would probably find his words annoying.
"An Nuan, I'm sorry. I had no choice. I'm not asking for your forgiveness. I just wish you could understand that I was forced. If I were to explain anything else, you certainly wouldn't believe me."
"Then I won't explain anything."
"Since you already know, please shut up," An Nuan said coldly, a hint of impatience on her face.
She was truly feeling impatient.
"An Nuan, I..." Shen Xi Zhou looked at An Nuan, wanting to explain further, but he found that An Nuan's gaze was never on him.
Shen Xi Zhou knew that anything he said now would be useless.
Shen Xi Zhou looked at An Nuan and continued, "An Nuan, would you even look at me if I jumped from here? Would you believe that what I'm saying is true?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he was already standing in the most dangerous spot.
"Shen Xi Zhou, you lunatic, if you want to die, don't drag me down with you," An Nuan exclaimed, her face turning pale.
She was truly scared. She hadn't expected Shen Xi Zhou to become so insane.
Did he not even care about his own life anymore?
When facing Shen Xi Zhou, An Nuan's only thought was to stay far away from him the next time they met, to hide from him. He was simply too terrifying, making her skin crawl. He was truly capable of anything.
Seeing that Shen Xi Zhou still hadn't come down, An Nuan said coldly, "Shen Xi Zhou, if you truly don't want to live, if you really want to die, then please do it somewhere I can't see."
"An Nuan, you..." Shen Xi Zhou looked at the person before him with disbelief.
He hadn't expected An Nuan to be so utterly cold.
But then again, considering what he had done, it was only natural for An Nuan to react this way.
An Nuan was right; this was all his own doing.
And what right did he have to criticize An Nuan here?
No, he had no right anymore.
Seeing that Shen Xi Zhou had no intention of coming down, An Nuan said coldly, "Shen Xi Zhou, haven't you already caused me enough suffering? Do you want to ruin my reputation with your death?"
"Shen Xi Zhou, even now, you still haven't thought about letting me go, have you?"
"Will you only be happy if you destroy me?"
Shen Xi Zhou immediately came down. He didn't understand why things had turned out this way. He had only hoped that this would make An Nuan return to his side, that she would listen to his explanation.
He hadn't expected his actions to lead to this reaction from An Nuan.
An Nuan's anger made him feel that things were not going as he had intended, that they were changing.
"Shen Xi Zhou, please leave."
"If you don't want to live, go to your Shen Corporation, don't do it in front of me."
"Shen Xi Zhou, you've already ruined half my life. Do you still want to ruin my entire life with your death?"
Seeing that Shen Xi Zhou had come down, An Nuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
An Nuan actually didn't care what happened to Shen Xi Zhou.
However, this was Nan Gong Corporation. If something were to happen here, Nan Gong Jin would have to face public opinion. She didn't want Nan Gong Jin to have to deal with such matters again.
Because of her, he would have to face those troublesome issues again.
Shen Xi Zhou looked at An Nuan, almost pleadingly, and said bitterly, "An Nuan, in your eyes, am I such a despicable person?"
"Yes," An Nuan replied without a moment's hesitation, not even giving herself time to think.
This was enough to show how much An Nuan wanted to have nothing to do with him.
"Shen Xi Zhou, since you have Xu Ruo Wei, then treat her well."
Shen Xi Zhou quickly tried to explain, "No... it's not like that, things are..."
An Nuan shook her head, "I know you have your so-called difficulties, but even if you do, you don't need to tell me."
"Because, even if you didn't have any difficulties, I have no relationship with you. It's your freedom who you want to be with."
"Mr. Shen, I've made myself clear. I hope you'll take care of yourself."
"An Nuan, I..." Shen Xi Zhou looked at An Nuan, reaching out as if to say something, but in the end, he gave up. Because he knew better than anyone that he truly had no chance anymore. His current entanglement would only make her detest him more.
Shen Xi Zhou seemed to have realized something and turned to leave. Although he didn't want to, he had no choice but to leave in the face of reality.
He had no chance anymore.
An Nuan walked to Nan Gong Jin's side, took his arm, and with a happy smile on her face, said, "It's so good to have you by my side."
"Meeting you is the greatest fortune of my life."
An Nuan said this seriously, knowing that Shen Xi Zhou would hear it. But she felt that even if he did, what of it?
So what if he knew? He couldn't do anything about it.
Xu Ruo Wei stared intently at the scene unfolding before her, but things were not going as she had designed.
Even An Nuan was not affected.
She felt something warm land on her face. Her eyes widened, and she saw Nan Gong Jin, who was very close.
And Nan Gong Jin's kiss landed on her forehead.
"Nan Gong Jin."
"Nan Gong Jin, can you let me go for a moment?" An Nuan struggled incessantly, wanting Nan Gong Jin to loosen his grip because he was holding her too tightly, making it difficult for her to breathe at that moment.
