“Don’t forget that the reason why I got married was because of my grandma! If something were to happen to grandma because I got married, then what’s the use of me getting married? We had better get divorced then!!”

An indescribable wave of emotions surged through Shi Guang’s heart, as though she had forgotten about what pain was like after the wounds healed into scabs.

To think that she would have been foolish enough to try on the ring today and even toy with the idea of starting everything afresh with him!

She was really an idiot! If Lu Yanchen had not left back then, she would have gone looking for him in less than a month for sure!

She would even plead with him to not break up.

That was probably the reason why she even had that lingering thought even after having separated for two years.

In this lifetime of hers, there was no cure for this poison that she had ingested known as Lu Yanchen!

Completely defeated and despondent, Shi Guang laughed at herself bitterly in her heart. She looked down at the ring on her hand. Even it seemed as though it was jeering at her naivety of wanting to start things afresh—what a dream!

Lu Yanchen’s face was steadily getting colder. “Marriage is not child’s play. Don’t talk about divorce on a whim!”

Shi Guang’s emotions were all over the place right now as she despised herself completely for even considering the thought of starting afresh. But of course, she really hated Lu Yanchen, and thus her words were filled with spite at that moment.

“How is it not child’s play? Isn’t the marriage between us just like a game of pretend play? Even if we’re married, so what? At this age right now, how many couples out there are getting divorced right after getting married, let alone us, a couple that should have never gotten married in the first place! Living under the same roof will bring us nothing but torments! Get divorced then!”

The flames of rage in Lu Yanchen’s heart seemed to have been fanned as they started blazing furiously. At the same time, his heart seemed like it was being tugged at by something such that his entire body was hurting all over!

He was so infuriated that he broke out into a wild laugh, one that contained way too much bitterness in it, “You can dream about that in this lifetime!”

Shi Guang glared at him with a livid expression. “THAT’S NOT FOR SURE. HAVEN’T YOU ASKED FOR A BREAK UP JUST LIKE THAT BACK THEN AS WELL?”

She had done it, screaming the deepest of all resentment in her heart.

She then turned around to leave, not wanting to say anything more, only wishing that she could get as far as possible from this man lest she lost every bit of sanity she had remaining.

But the moment she turned away, he grabbed at her wrist.

Shi Guang looked at him. Underneath the shadows of the lights, she could not make out his expression at all.

She struggled as he took a step forth and spun her around, pinning her against the wall as he snarled out, “Do you really think that I wouldn’t do anything to you?”

Shi Guang was not afraid to stare right at him as she sneered, “Oh, I wouldn’t dare. Back then, you broke up with me right after bedding me. So, if I let you bed me, I can get a divorce right away then?”

Lu Yanchen lowered his head, really wanting to chew her to death. “…”

If he wanted to get a woman’s body, it was actually really simple—he was a man with methods.

But… would she really belong to him if he got her physical body using methods?

What he had ever wanted was never her body, but her heart. He wanted to get married with her not as a marriage of convenience. And no, he did not want to be with her so that they could hate and torment one another—he was always waiting for her to accept him out of her own free will.

Eventually, he could not bring himself to chew at her, turning it into a kiss instead, planting it deeply on those restless lips of hers. It was exceptionally imposing and domineering, not allowing her to even pause as his tongue penetrated in easily…

She tried struggling. However, his body was pinned against her, crushing their bodies together, grinding in a smooth motion.

He used his hands to hold her head firm, ensuring that she was rooted there without any chance of escaping as he continued kissing her fiercely… There were all sorts of emotions contained within it as he traveled downwards, extending down to her chest…
