[GB] Boss Ruan, your husband doesn't want you anymore.

After Chen Jue had completely left, Huo Jingmo pointed to the door and said, "You can get out of here too."

Ruan Qian'an didn't even flinch: "No."

"Why should I leave?"

Huo Jingmo grabbed Ruan Qian'an's wrist, intending to throw her away.

Ruan Qian'an didn't resist much and was pulled up by Huo Jingmo.

When they reached the door, Huo Jingmo could no longer pull Ruan Qian'an away.

Huo Jingmo released Ruan Qian'an somewhat discouraged: "Get out of here yourself!"

Ruan Qian'an raised her hand and groped around in front of her, but in the opposite direction.

He said to Huo Jingmo, "I'm leaving."

But it was getting further and further away from the door.

Huo Jingmo: "Stop pretending and get out of here."

"Ruan Qian'an, is this really meaningful?"

"Don't make me hate you even more."

Ruan Qian'an leaned her head against the wall and said, "Then you'll hate me even more."

Huo Jingmo was so angry that he took a few steps forward and grabbed Ruan Qian'an by the collar.

He said emotionally, "Do you know how much effort I put into controlling myself?!"

"If it weren't for Xiangxiang, you would have skinned me alive and drunk my blood."

"Why do you keep doing this to me! What did I do to make you hate me so much!" Huo Jingmo almost shouted.

Unfazed by Huo Jingmo's beating despite being grabbed by the collar, Ruan Qian'an smiled and said, "But..."

"What does this have to do with you wearing the clothes that woman bought?"

Huo Jingmo released Ruan Qian'an's hand, took a few steps back, and showed an incredulous expression: "What are you talking about? What are you talking about? Can't you just answer my question directly?"

Ruan Qian'an: "I've made myself perfectly clear, I just love you too much."

Huo Jingmo: "Don't you understand? We're finished a long time ago. It's not out of kindness that I'm letting you live."

Ruan Qian'an: "I don't understand. I know you love me. No matter how much you hurt me, I won't fight back or get angry, but you can't find someone else!"

"We can't ask anyone else!"

The veins on Huo Jingmo's forehead bulged, as if he had reached his limit of endurance: "Enough."

He used his elbow to brace against Ruan Qian'an's chin, pinning her to the bed, and Huo Jingmo tightened his grip even more.

Ruan Qian'an's face flushed red, but she didn't move at all. Just as Ruan Qian'an was having more and more difficulty breathing, Huo Jingmo suddenly released her.

Huo Jingmo stared intently at Ruan Qian'an with bloodshot eyes, his hatred reaching its peak.

He glanced at Xiangxiang's room and said in a hoarse voice, "You better live well."

Ruan Qian'an coughed a few times as she was released from her clutches, saying, "You still can't bear to part with me."

Huo Jingmo: "I don't want to argue with you here. Get out of here!"

Ruan Qian'an covered Huo Jingmo's mouth: "Don't make noise, you don't want to wake Xiangxiang up, do you?"

Ruan Qian'an said dismissively, "Why don't you just let me stay here? It's for Xiangxiang's own good, don't you think?"

Ruan Qian'an covered Huo Jingmo's mouth, led him to the sofa, and pounced on it.

His body slammed against the sofa, causing Huo Jingmo to groan. The intense feeling of suffocation felt familiar to him.

Ruan Qian'an smiled and said, "Why do you look so surprised?"

Ruan Qian'an hissed and released her hand from Huo Jingmo's mouth: "Why do you like biting people so much?"

Huo Jingmo: "Can't you see? How do you know what expression I have?"

Ruan Qian'an: "I guessed it, but your expression right now must not be very good."

Huo Jingmo pushed Ruan Qian'an away from him.

Huo Jingmo sat up, still shaken by the memory of being pinned down by Ruan Qian'an. That familiar feeling...

He said, "You..."

"You were that person in Dark City?"

Ruan Qian'an slid off Huo Jingmo and onto the sofa: "Hmm, is it too slow to realize this now?"

Huo Jingmo sighed. It was Ruan Qian'an. Was that why she survived jumping from that spot? He wasn't so surprised.

But Huo Jingmo said, "How come you didn't die from the fall?"

Ruan Qian'an chuckled and said, "Worried about me."

Huo Jingmo pushed Ruan Qian'an's face away and sneered.

Ruan Qian'an continued, "How could I possibly die from falling into the sea?"

Huo Jingmo remained silent, which made him realize once again just how terrifying Ruan Qian'an was.

He stood up, not wanting to share a roof with this person, and said, "Then you can stay here with Xiangxiang."

Ruan Qian'an grabbed Huo Jingmo's wrist and asked, "Where are you going? It's not safe outside."

Huo Jingmo shook off Ruan Qian'an's hand: "Anywhere is safer than being by your side."

Ruan Qian'an grasped Huo Jingmo's hand in return and said, "It's safest to have you by my side."

Huo Jingmo scoffed and forcefully shook off Ruan Qian'an's hand. Ruan Qian'an's nails scratched red marks on Huo Jingmo's skin: "Ruan Qian'an, have you forgotten what you did to me?"

"You really have a bad memory."

Ruan Qian'an awkwardly withdrew her hand, unable to refute it for a moment.

Huo Jingmo: "I think I've made myself very clear. It's impossible for me to get along peacefully with you in the same room."

The door slammed shut.

Ruan Qian'an lowered her raised hand and rubbed her forehead: "This is a bit difficult."

"Cough...cough cough cough."

Ruan Qian'an covered her mouth, vomiting blood. Looking at her phone, she realized time was running out; should she delete that memory of him...?

Huo Jingmo regretted it after closing the door. He realized he hadn't changed his clothes, but luckily he had brought his phone.

But he couldn't go back now, so he put on the hat that came with the outfit and wrapped himself up tightly.

He found a bar nearby and went in without thinking, feeling extremely frustrated.

They ordered a few bottles of wine and settled down in the booth, drinking one glass after another.

Not only could he not get revenge, but he also had absolutely no way to deal with her.

The more you get to know her, the more you realize that she is like an insurmountable mountain.

His only bargaining chip was that she still loved him. Huo Jingmo clenched his hands, thinking of using this chip...?

A swaying woman, twisting her waist and hips, walked to Huo Jingmo's side, threw herself into his arms, placed her hands on Huo Jingmo's chest and drew circles, and said, "Handsome guy, all alone?"

Huo Jingmo was about to push her away when the woman simply left his side. She bent over, revealing a large expanse of her chest, and tapped Huo Jingmo's chest with her finger, saying, "Remember to look for me."

Before turning to leave, she blew Huo Jingmo a kiss.

Huo Jingmo frowned and picked up a business card from where the woman had just pointed.

After seeing the contents clearly, his pupils suddenly contracted.

He quickly wrote down the number, picked up the lighter on the table, lit it, and threw it into the ashtray.

The firelight flickered in Huo Jingmo's eyes until it went out.
