It hurt.
His cold voice was like a sharp sword, piercing into her heart ruthlessly.
He was really ruthless!
He said before that he only treated Xue’er as family, but once he found her, he could not tolerate her existence and was throwing her to the gutter in the pouring rain.
This man really knew how to hurt someone.
Lifting up their hopes to the heavens before bringing them smas.h.i.+ng down to the depths of h.e.l.l.
He treated her so well before because he had not found Xue’er and put his hopes in her. Like she was warned, now she knew. She was merely a shadow of Xue’er!
What a fool she was.
Little by little, she had slowly but surely been conquered by his domineering and powerful att.i.tude.
He must be laughing at her now!
“A-Ah Han, it’s raining so heavily. Don’t leave a girl alone at night,” the woman behind said in a weak voice.
The man furrowed his eyebrows and his expression was indifferent and cold. He looked at Nan Zhi coldly and then at the woman sitting at the back. Nan Zhi did not miss the tenderness that flashed past his eyes.
What further proof did she need?
Everything she had come to believe was a pretense!
She smirked in a self-deprecating manner and her blood ran cold. Not wanting to stay in the car any longer, she sniffed and pushed open the door without a word.
The heavy rain mixed with the wind hit her in the face like a cold slap in the face.
It forced her to wake up.
But compared to her body, her heart was even colder.
Before she closed the door, she heard the conversation between the woman and the man.
“Ah Han, she’s your friend, how can you treat her like this?”
“Only you can sit in my car.”
Before the door was completely closed, Nan Zhi met with the man’s deep and cold eyes, and she saw the blatant mockery in his eyes, as if challenging her.
Seconds later, the car sped away just when she was able to steady herself.
The rainwater that splashed out quickly drenched her with no remorse.
Nan Zhi watched the car going away. Soon, even the headlights could not be seen and disappeared from her sight.
She was a fool.
She would never have imagined that he could be so heartless.
They had an intimate relations.h.i.+p and whenever they have an intimate moment or when he came forward to help when she encountered difficulties, she would always have the illusion that he would be there for her. Always.
Perhaps she had come to depend on him too much. At times, even though he was overbearing and arrogant, she truly felt that he really doted on her.
She was a fool and she had stupidly let herself be swayed by him.
But his actions tonight woke her up completely.
As she stood alone in the heavy rain, the rainwater dripping down from her head soaked through her clothes, down to the depths of her soul. All she could feel was an ice cold liquid on her face, but she did not know if it was pouring rain, or her broken tears.
It was already ten p.m, and the storm gave no sign of stopping.
She stood alone by the roadside and was like a lost child who did not know where to go.
Even his Xue’er knew that it might be dangerous to leave a girl behind at night, but he had abandoned her again.
Just like that night on the deserted island.
If it was not for Xiao Yi, she might have died there.
Nan Zhi’s heart felt like it was soaked in salt water, it was bitter and sore.
Her heart was in a mess, her ears were buzzing and her heart tightened and there was a stabbing pain to her heart. Her emotions were uncontrollable.
Biting her lips hard, she closed her eyes and opened them again, leaving behind only coldness.
She did not hail a taxi, but instead, slowly walked forward along the endless road.
The rainwater splashed on her face and body, but she seemed unable to feel the cold. She was like a ghost who had lost her soul, walking aimlessly.
The only thing she could feel was an empty numbness.
Even when she was framed by Nan Yao’s family four years ago, she did not feel anywhere near what she felt at this moment.
She was not a person who had not experienced hards.h.i.+p, no matter how terrible she felt, she believed she would get over it.
Just think of my baby Xiaojie…
She should never have done that DNA test.
