Chapter 577
Ye Junqing has dug his own grave, and is now unable to climb out of the hole he’s made for himself. He has only himself to blame. “Let me tell you a story,” he stated.
“I don’t want to hear it.”
Regardless of her refusal, Ye Junqing began narrating, a deep seriousness in his voice as he discussed past events: “What if I said to you, I am a time traveler. I got emotional and suddenly returned from my 29-year-old self to my 23-year-old self, living my life over again, would you believe me?”
Ye Xingguang bit her lip, remaining silent.
Ye Junqing continued: “In my first life, you did not get into C University because you missed the final exam during the college entrance examination, so you could only attend a third-tier college. By chance, my fleet passed by the entrance to your college, and I recognized you. I wanted to court you, but you did not like me. I tried all the known methods to win a girl’s heart, to no avail. I had no choice, I took you home forcefully and kept you there. I was a little assertive, I even had my driver take you to and from school each day. I tried to keep you in my world forcefully, but this did not capture your heart, instead, it pushed you further away from me…”
Ye Xingguang interrupted: “How is that possible? If I did not like you, how could I have allowed you to keep me forcefully? I would have been able to kick your bodyguards away with one foot. Do you think I would let you have your way with me? Don’t you think through your stories first? Do you think I, someone who can easily beat up the Xia’s Family bodyguards, would let you do as you please with me?”
Ye Junqing’s handsome eyebrows furrowed: “Can you please listen quietly to the story?”
“So, despite your false character portrayal, I am not allowed to rebut?” Ye Xingguang huffed.
Ye Junqing pulled her tighter into his arms: “In any case, I did keep you against your will for seven years. But while I had your body, your heart was not confined. It mattered not what I did to please you, your heart remained cold. We often fought and it always ended in mutual defeat, both physically and emotionally drained. Only by letting each other go could we find relief. Hence, I chose to let you go, to disappear from your life, to forget you in order to save us both. Otherwise, I fear you, who is dewelling under my coercion, might end up in depression and die. In the end, Li Yu took you away from me. Supposedly, you two even got married later. That is the story of the heartless little rascals I speak of.”
Ye Xingguang rolled her eyes and pushed him away forcefully: “Your story is full of holes! In seven years! If I didn’t like you, you wouldn’t be able to keep me for seven months, let alone seven years! Even if I agreed, my parents would never consent. Think of another story, something logical and infallible, at least one that doesn’t seem so fake when I listen!”
Really, did he think she was stupid? He can’t even make her an interesting story!
And as for her getting married to Li Yu, she had no feelings for him outside of friendship. How could they possibly marry?!noveldrama
This man refused to tell her who her first love was and unnecessarily portrayed her as a bad woman. It’s outrageous!
If she really disliked him, if their relationship resulted in mutual defeat, she would have regretted starting anything with him and avoided him from the beginning. Could she really not resist him for seven years, having to wait until he decided to let go on his own? He really underestimated her!
Ye Xingguang was not trying to send Ye Junqing away in earnest, but hearing the lies from his mouth, she grew angry and lifted her leg to kick him: “Get out, or I’ll call my parents. I’m calling them…. aaah…”
