Chapter 897: Chapter 898: Again and Again
"What, cat got your tongue?" Shi Feng glared fiercely at Li Tingyan, his words hitting the most vulnerable spot in his heart with a harsh sting. "Did you see the bandage on the back of my head? Back then, when that woman was causing trouble, she picked up a chair to hit Nianyang, and it almost got her, but I stepped in to protect her, did you know that?"
The ice in Li Tingyanâs eyes quickly shattered, forming a red whirlpool that was about to swallow him up, and his voice was so broken it couldnât be pieced together.
"Is... is that so?"
"What else?" Shi Feng pushed Li Tingyan aside, pointing at his own head. "Because of this, I was conveniently supported by Nianyang. Iâve always had a photographer secretly take photos of every interaction between me and Nianyang. Thatâs how those pictures were taken, do you understand?"
Li Tingyanâs world suddenly collapsed with a bang. He thought he was already in pain, but it turned out there was even more pain.
He couldnât help but recall when he first found the photos, angrily questioning her, how did she respond?
[Strange, are you angry? Whatâs there to be mad about? I just did the same thing as you did. What right do you have to be angry?]
[You can hug and hold Yin Tang, why canât I? Itâs just a case of the upper beam not being straight so the lower beam is crooked.]
[If I told you that Shi Feng and I werenât together the way you think, but there were difficulties and reasons, just like you and Yin Tang, would you believe me?]
[See, you donât believe me at all, so why should I believe you?]
Li Tingyanâs eyes grew redder. This idiot.
She obviously suffered so much grievance, why didnât she tell the truth at the time?
Why did she have to say such insincere things?
Needless to say, it must have been because, at the time, she was hurt by him and Yin Tang and shut her heart off.
Li Tingyan, youâre such a bastard, you really are a bastard.
Shi Feng continued, "This girl, Chu Nianyang, looks smart, but sheâs actually a downright silly girl. At that time, she needed you so much, yet you werenât by her side. She didnât even blame you and kept making excuses for you!"
"She said you were busy, doing things for the country and the people. Sheâs so incredibly stupid.
She clearly knew that with your current status, Li Tingyan, you couldnât be that busy, not to the point of not even making a single call, but she still firmly believed in you. But what did you do?
When Nianyang needed you, you werenât there, nor did you ask about her. When she believed you were busy, understanding you, you were flirting with another woman!"
[I really needed you, you obviously werenât busy, you clearly had time, yet you didnât call me. How I wished for your concern, I was really heartbroken. I specially took a train to find you, and ended up unable to use the pass. I only had fifty cents on me, took half a ride on the bus, and finally walked for an hour. I was so tired, I so much wanted to see you, but when I arrived all I got was news of you being with another woman, all I saw was your guarded eyes when you saw me coming. You were actually wary of me, you had the scent of another womanâs perfume on you, and you told me not to overthink. How can I not overthink]
Li Tingyan stumbled several steps back, Nianyangâs aggrieved complaints playing over and over in his mind, suffocating him.
