Chapter 721: Rift
“I’ve already given all my love to Xinxin.” Fang Shaohua closed his eyes in pain. “In this lifetime, I won’t love anyone aside from Xinxin.”
“But you married me!” She wanted to scream, but her voice sounded broken and weak.
“I already told you; it’s because I took your first time. I married you to take responsibility for you.”
Her heart was bleeding. She murmured softly. “I don’t want you to take responsibility. I want your love.”
“I previously took Xinxin’s first time when I was drunk.” Fang Shaohua’s heart was in pain. “I had wanted to take responsibility for her, but she married Bai Qinghao and doesn’t need me. Nonetheless, I let her down with my actions. I can’t let you down too. I can give you a marriage and promise you that you’ll be my only woman. The only thing I cannot promise is love.”
She had pursued him for nearly two years. She asked him with a sigh. “There isn’t the slightest possibility that you’ll fall for me?”
“Xinxin asked me to take good care of you. She hopes that you’ll be her sister-in-law.” Fang Shaohua was indifferent. “By marrying you, I can stop Xinxin from worrying. I can also take the responsibility I owe you. That is why you became my wife.”
“Enough!” Sun Jiamu raised her voice.
Fang Shaohua glanced at her angered expression in surprise. He had never known that she could get angry?
For the past two years, she tried to win his liking with every possible method and had never lost her temper at him.
Sun Jiamu felt like she was a beggar. She had been begging for scraps for him for so long.
She always waited for the day he would turn to look at her.
However, the truth was actually this painful.
Sun Jiamu stood up. She reached for the tissues on the table and wiped her tears away before heading for the door.
Fang Shaohua reached out to hold her elbow.
Just when she thought he would ask her to stay, he said, “The things that happened between Xinxin and I… don’t tell anyone about it.”
Sun Jiamu’s heart turned frigid cold. She said mockingly, “I can’t promise that I won’t tell anyone.”
A hint of anger flashed past his face. “Sun Jiamu, must you insist on ruining Xinxin’s happiness? She is already married. She won’t affect you in any way!”
She smiled as she slowly pushed his hand away from her arm. “Since she snatched away your heart, I’ll play the role of a bad woman.”
Since he valued Xinxin this much, she would anger him in this way.
This was because he only became angry with her for Xinxin. If it wasn’t for Xinxin, he wouldn’t even give her a single glance, wasn’t it?
“You!” A hint of viciousness flashed past Fang Shaohua’s dark gaze.
“What is it? Are you thinking of hitting me now?” Sun Jiamu lifted her chin.
Fang Shaohua took in her beautiful appearance. His voice was both indifferent and tired. “I don’t hit women.”
“Then, let go!” Her voice was as cold as ice.
Fang Shaohua wasn’t sure why, but a small part of him could not bear to do so. “Only if you promise not to hurt Xinxin.”
“Fine.” Sun Jiamu directly agreed. At the same time, she felt her heart being enveloped in misery.
Xinxin was her only and closest friend.
