Living With a Temperamental Adonis: 99 Proclamations of Love Chapter 982 Leave Before I Return 2

Cheng Qingchong shivered in the dust. After a while, she slowly turned to look at the road. Qin Yinan’s car had already disappeared. She stared at the space his car had vacated, spacing out for a long time. Then she gripped her bag tightly before rushing toward the other end of the road. She stood beside the rails to stare down at the gently gurgling river underneath it. The surface of the river was calm; the ripple caused by the ring had already disappeared a long time ago.

To kick me out of his house so soon after the divorce is settled, he probably hates me very much.

To ask me to move everything that I own out of his house, he probably hates me very much.

Of course, she had envisioned how it would be when her lies were exposed, but she really didn’t expect a scenario like this. She had always felt guilty toward him. However, she didn’t expect that he had already seen through her ploy when she was wrought with guilt but had chosen not to expose her.

Instead, he had laid a giant trap for her, slowly leading her to fall into it willingly with his show of gentleness and kindness.

Finally, unable to holding it any longer, a single tear fell out of Cheng Qingchong’s eye. It slid down her cheek slowly before landing on her lips. It tasted as bitter as her heart.

Those sweet memories, they were merely a lie.

Then again, she approached him initially on the pretext of a lie, so she couldn’t find it within her to blame him. She deserved such an ending…

Yet, that awareness didn’t help soften the blow or lighten the sadness in her heart. The sadness from the fact that she had fallen for his trick and given him her heart, not knowing he merely wanted to trample on it.

During that period when he was good to her, her every blush, her every increased heartrate, they must have provided plenty of sadistic amusement to him, right?

Also, last night, when he asked her whether she liked him or not, his heart must have been filled with derision upon noticing how flustered she was.

No wonder, when she returned the same question to him, he answered, ‘What do you think?’

Even though she had completely fallen into his trap, he refused to tell her a lie and say that he liked her.

She had fallen for him and given him her heart, but he didn’t want her anymore, so what should she do now?

Staring at the river, Chen Qingchong’s face was veiled with sadness, confusion, and loss.

Cheng Qingchong stood by the river like a dummy for a long time before she turned to hail a cab. She didn’t hurry to return to his place but when to the mall. She searched through all the jewelry store before she located a ring similar to the one that Qin Yinan had gifted her.

She didn’t make the purchase but did glance at the price tag. Then, she left for ‘home’.

The place looked familiar and strange at the same time.

Cheng Qingchong stood at the door and scanned every inch of the living room before walking into her bedroom. She located all the gifts that Qin Yinan had given her throughout their marriage and searched for their individual price tag on the internet. She then placed them neatly on the bed before moving onto packing her luggage.

The sun had almost set when Cheng Qingchong finished packing. She cleared away all the items that she didn’t need and dropped them in the downstairs trashcan. Then, she sat on the bed that she had slept in for the past year, staring at the setting sun out the window. She used her phone to transfer an amount of money into the card that Qin Yinan had given her when they first got married.
