Chapter 380: Shattered in an Instant
Seizing the rare opportunity, Leng Le swiftly picked up the keys and unlocked the handcuffs from the boss. In that instant, the boss’s aura surged, his physical state was recovering, and his gaze turned extremely sharp.
However, the boss still needed some time to return to his peak. During this time, Leng Le rushed to recover too, but her body ached with every slight movement. She was secretly resentful; Gu Fan had hit her really hard.
The boss glanced at Leng Le, then said, "Why didn’t you tell the truth? Why didn’t you tell Gu Fan how much of what you felt for him was real? If he hadn’t found out, would you truly have married him?"
In response, Leng Le gave a nonchalant smile. "As he said, what’s the point? When he discovered my true face, that was the end of our feelings for each other. From then on, we’d each go our own way and live our own lives."
The boss asked another question, "So how do you feel now that this relationship has ended?"
"Feelings?" Leng Le closed her eyes and let herself feel, then stretched her waist. After a while, she smiled, "Before, I always worried that Gu Fan would find out and we would lose our relationship. Now that I’ve really lost it, it’s not as sad as I thought. I actually feel relaxed; I no longer have to worry if I will lose him every day. I can finally go back to being my true self."
"Let’s hope that’s the case," said the boss. His aura was visible. Despite her carefree expression, it was clear Leng Le was somewhat reluctant to let go. After all, she had also made sacrifices for the relationship and tried in every way to maintain it.
But Leng Le is Leng Le, after all. Having gone through so much, she wasn’t held back by her feelings anymore. Even if she felt reluctance, it would fade with time, and her heart would freeze over once more, bit by bit.
"What do we do now? Do we stop them from achieving eternal life?" Leng Le asked, appearing drained. She had just had a fight with Gu Fan and was in pain all over.
