She had no desire to be a third party in someone’s marriage.
What if I get a divorce?
Chu Lui was still staring at her. Besides Yixuan, this was the first time he felt like making small talk with a woman.
He was not put off by this woman. On the contrary, he was somewhat interested.
Oh, no!
Li Manni hastily shook her hands.
I have no intention of asking you to file a divorce. That would be too immoral.
She lowered her head and continued to shake her head. Then again, she felt an indescribable excitement and anticipation.
If he filed for a divorce, then she…
A huge hand landed abruptly on her shoulder. It caused her body to shudder for no reason.
You…
She looked up with confusion in her eyes while the man smiled with a nice curve on his lips.
She blinked her eyes continuously and was attracted to his black eyes. As if her soul was being sucked into them. She began to feel dizzy.
Both of them stared at each other as though nothing else existed here. Only the two of them. Alone, for a long time.
When she felt something tightened around her waist, Li Manni was still feeling dizzy. Once she regained herself, she realized that the man had led her onto the dance floor. She followed his steps, and both of them danced to their own rhythm.
She moved like a beautiful butterfly which had flown to the corner of his eye.
To her, he was like a ray of light which had seeped into her soul.
The music continued to play, and the lights grew dimmer. Everything was so dreamy. The two silhouettes spun around the dance floor. No one counted, and it was countless.
Finally, they vanished from everyone’s view. There were a lot of nice spots in this place that suited two people.
To talk about themselves, their emotions, and even to cheat on their partners.
Xia Ruoxin stared at the clock on the wall. It would be 12 midnight soon, in slightly more than ten minutes. Her birthday would be over soon. It would be another lonely birthday. She yawned, still waiting stubbornly. He said he would be back, and she believed him. He would be back.
She was slightly distressed as she walked to the window and put her face against the cold window glass. Under the dim street lamp, the surrounding looked even darker. What did the endless night have in store for her? She felt the sudden pricking pain in her heart, like needles piercing endlessly at her.
She rested her hands on her shoulders. Then, she proceeded to draw the curtains. It was already that late.
She walked over to the telephone as she hesitated whether she should dial the number that she had memorized by heart.
Sorry, the subscriber that you’re trying to reach is not in service.
She put the telephone down and turned around to glance at the birthday cake on the table. The candles would finish burning soon.
She walked over to the sofa and sat down. Then, she lowered herself to blow all the candles out. It was her twenty-second birthday. She was still alone.
Ah Lui…
Xia Ruoxin called his name. She had no idea why she felt like crying today as she sniffed. She didn’t know what she did wrong or what made him treat her with such indifference. Was it because of that incident? If only she had a chance to speak.
The door opened at this moment. She quickly dried her tears as Chu Lui entered. He glanced at her nonchalantly.
What were you doing, sitting here? Scaring people like a ghost?
There was no emotion on his face. He had used up every ounce of patience when she was concerned.
