Chapter 442: Drawing a Clear Line
Pei Yansi laughed angrily, repeating the question, "What did you say? You hope we can get engaged as planned, and you’re so eager for me to have relations with another woman?"
"Mr. Pei, you are a smart man. I hope you can face reality. We are over. Please stop being so persistent. I hope you can marry Chen Lingmeng, so that everything between us can be completely severed. My fiancé won’t have any unnecessary worries then."
Shen Heyu said, lowering her head, in a faint voice. Pei Yansi still couldn’t believe what he had heard; he tugged at the corners of his mouth, his laugh growing colder.
After laughing absent-mindedly several times, Pei Yansi realized he couldn’t muster a single smile anymore. He took a quick stride right up to Shen Heyu and grabbed her shoulders with his hands.
"Shen Heyu, tell me you were just joking with me, right? This isn’t what you really think. Just yesterday when we survived a near-death experience and came back together, I heard you constantly calling my name."
"I might have been unconscious then, but I could still hear your voice. You even cried for me. I don’t believe that was fake. I still matter to you, I still have weight in your heart."
Pei Yansi’s voice even trembled; he repeatedly asked Shen Heyu to confirm this, the sound of her crying for him in his half-asleep, half-awake state yesterday wasn’t a dream.
"What will it take for you to come to your senses?" Shen Heyu forcefully shrugged off his hand from her shoulder.
Shen Heyu used a lot of strength to break free from Pei Yansi’s grasp; Pei Yansi was pushed back half a step by her. The excessive movement strained his abdominal wound, making his face turn pale, and cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
Seeing Pei Yansi wince in pain and raise his hand to press on his injured abdomen, Shen Heyu’s heart felt as if it had been fiercely kicked.
