Chapter 138 (3)

The thought that she had dragged Lu Sicheng down was like a needle pricking her heart. Tong Yao felt like she was hurt all over…… She unexpectedly quivered. Lu Sicheng, while lightly holding her hand, seemed to have noticed it. He raised his eyebrows to take a look at Tong Yao. He thought it was because he had somehow hurt her and mumbled in a low voice: “Hang in there, I’ll be done soon. It’s alright to cry, but wait till I finish.”


“......”


Tong Yao couldn’t take it anymore.josei


It would have been better if he scolded her for being too nosy or she got a good beating for always causing trouble. It would’ve been alright if she was taught a good lesson then everything could be back to normal. Even if it meant that she had to sit out for a few games to clear her head, it would have been fine with her…… But why hadn't he said anything from the beginning to the end?


He would let people question him, let the fans attack him, and let his streams have bullet comments filled with reckless ridicule…… He would let her stand right behind him but still ignored her. Even if she harshly questioned him out of irritation, he would still be like “alright, alright, whatever you say.”-- --


She was a living person, not air.


All these random thoughts went through Tong Yao’s head and she couldn’t think straight anymore. She stared at the man who was quietly wrapping the bandage on her injured finger. Her mind began to be dominated by uneasiness and chilliness from her overly active imagination….. The same coldness she had experienced the night before, as if she had fallen into the bottom of the ocean, came back again.


Tong Yao suddenly asked: “Cheng Ge, are we going to break up?”


Just as she had finished asking, she saw Lu Sicheng abruptly stop in the middle of winding the bandage.


Tong Yao was baffled and it took her three seconds to realize what she had just said-- --Her expression changed immediately and she quickly looked up. Her eyes were quite unprepared to meet Lu Sicheng’s bottomless dark brown pupils.


Lu Sicheng simply fixed his eyes on her.


Tong Yao uneasily moved her body slightly.


Lu Sicheng let go of her hand.


Tong Yao’s heart skipped a bit.


“You want to break up with me?”


Lu Sicheng’s voice was deep and husky, but it didn’t seem to have much emotion in it-- --


However, his voice made Tong Yao tremble a little…… She lowered her head without knowing what to do, but simply couldn’t face his eyes anymore-- --She was fearful that just one glance at him would make all of her previous speculations come true. She was fearful that once her eyes met with his, he would curve up his lips and use his usual indifferent tone of voice to say “Sure.”......


Tong Yao lowered her head deep down.


She had decided not to look up for the rest of her life.


She secretly made up her mind. After a long silence, she heard Lu Sicheng’s steady and calm voice above her head: “Just because I haven’t done enough and made you cry, you want to break up with me?”


“......”


Uhm?


Tong Yao looked up in confusion, moved her lips and sniffled-- --Her eyes, which she had worked hard to cover her uneasiness, were now redder than a rabbit. Her insecurity and agitation were completely written on her face without any disguise.


Tong Yao finally looked into those dark brown eyes which she had just a second ago made up her mind not to. What surprised her was that in those eyes, she didn’t see anything like she had expected……


Indifference?


“I won’t allow it.”


“......”


“Don’t you even think about it.”
