Song Wanwan, dressed in a white riding outfit, arrived at the stables.

Gu Tingzhou was squatting down, gently stroking a pure white pony. It was lying on the ground, looking lazy, but under Gu Tingzhou's touch, it became exceptionally obedient.

Gu Tingzhou looked up and saw Song Wanwan arrive. He said, "I've picked out a miniature horse for you. Do you like it?"

Song Wanwan scoffed. Did they think she was someone who couldn't ride a horse?

She said with a hint of sarcasm, "Aren't you Prince Charming? You're quite suitable."

Song Wanwan casually picked up a tall, brown thoroughbred horse and walked out of the stable.

I'm reminded of a saying: The person I like will definitely come to pick me up riding a white horse and stepping on auspicious clouds.

Song Wanwan never wanted a prince charming, because she could ride a horse; her father had taught her since she was little.

She led the brown horse to the meadow, gently stroking its mane. In the sunlight, her high ponytail gave her a dashing and spirited air.

She put her feet on the stirrups, pushed off hard, and straddled the horse.

Gu Tingzhou finally led out a pure black Akhal-Teke horse and said with a hint of surprise, "You can ride a horse?"

Song Wanwan said dismissively, "I know a lot more, you just don't know it."

Gu Tingzhou was taken aback and frowned, saying, "Do you have to talk to me like that? Are you out of your mind?"

Song Wanwan chuckled softly: "You're right, I only know how to talk to you in a sarcastic way."

Gu Tingzhou lowered his eyes slightly, his indifference tinged with a hint of anger, and asked coldly, "What exactly are you dissatisfied with?"

Song Wanwan sneered, "What I'm unhappy about is that you'll never know what I'm unhappy about."

Gu Tingzhou choked and frowned.

After Song Wanwan finished speaking, she kicked the horse's belly, took the reins, and started jogging slowly around the horse farm to warm up the horse.

Gu Tingzhou mounted the horse and started it running, following behind Song Wanwan.

When his horse and Song Wanwan's horse were side by side, he sat on the back of the horse with a straight and handsome back.

His eyes were deep, and his long eyelashes cast shadows beneath them. He said impatiently, "Song Wanwan, what exactly did I do? Tell me clearly."

Song Wanwan glared at him from the side, then continued riding her horse, ignoring him.

Gu Tingzhou was annoyed by her disregard. He pulled on the reins and quickly adjusted the horse's speed and position.

He seized the opportunity, stretched out his long legs, and with a powerful push, straddled Song Wanwan's back.

Song Wanwan was startled by Gu Tingzhou's sudden action and immediately tightened the reins. The horse was frightened and started circling in place.

Gu Tingzhou held her close, pressing them together tightly. He placed his hand on the back of Song Wanwan's hand, loosened the reins she had tightened, and soothed the horse.

Once the horse calmed down, Song Wanwan shouted, "What are you doing? Don't you know how dangerous this is?"

Gu Tingzhou said calmly, "That's why you should answer me properly when I'm talking to you, and this kind of thing won't happen."

Song Wanwan tightened the reins, stopping the horse on the spot, and said coldly, "Get down."

Gu Tingzhou said in a low voice, "Everyone else is watching. If I go down now, they'll definitely think we're arguing, and I don't want Mom to nag me."

Song Wanwan's expression turned cold, her disdain in her eyes was undisguised, and her brows carried a faint sarcasm. "Gu Tingzhou, is this really necessary? The cooling-off period ends next Friday. We'll get the divorce certificate sooner or later anyway, and they'll find out then too."

Gu Tingzhou looked down at her in his arms, his dark and deep gaze falling on her face. He kicked the horse's belly, and the horse slowly started to run again.

Song Wanwan felt that Gu Tingzhou was pressed against her back, and the warm body temperature of his body made her feel very annoyed, so she frowned.

Holding Song Wanwan in his arms, Gu Tingzhou could clearly smell her scent. He swallowed, his Adam's apple bobbing. "So how did you kiss me last night?"

Song Wanwan paused, her eyelashes fluttering, and replied calmly, "I was drunk and acting crazy, and you're going to take it seriously? You've never kissed a woman before, is that why you care so much?"

Gu Tingzhou's expression hardened. "Who took it seriously? I'm just unhappy that you kissed me without my permission."

Song Wanwan's beautiful features were tinged with a hint of coldness. "Gu Tingzhou, don't do anything unnecessary. We'll be getting our marriage certificate in a few days. Don't make me think you're reluctant to divorce me."

Gu Tingzhou chuckled softly, "Who's reluctant? I just..."

Before Gu Tingzhou could finish speaking, Song Wanwan interrupted him, saying, "You're just resentful right now. You're resentful that I've been so cold to you lately and even offered to divorce you, which has damaged your dignity as a man and made you feel like you've lost face. That's why you're holding a grudge."

"Think about it, do you really understand me? Do I know what I like and dislike? Do you know what I care about most?"

"I..." Gu Tingzhou's eyes widened, unable to answer.

Song Wanwan's eyes were cold as she said indifferently, "You see, you can't even answer that yourself, so do you think there's any point in continuing this marriage?"

Gu Tingzhou's pupils suddenly contracted. "Song Wanwan, I can..."

Song Wanwan stared blankly into the distance, her expression calm and undisturbed, and said calmly, "No need, Gu Tingzhou, you really don't need to. You don't need to feel guilty because I've done so much for you and want to try to understand me and make amends."

“Doing this only makes me feel like you're pitying me, which is really unnecessary. If you don't truly love me, then let me go. I promise I will never bother you again after the divorce.”

Gu Tingzhou was taken aback upon hearing this, his pupils contracted almost imperceptibly, and the next instant, his eyes suddenly darkened.

He wanted to refute it, but suddenly he didn't know what to say.

He doesn't understand his feelings for Song Wanwan. He just feels that she likes him wholeheartedly, is obedient and won't cause trouble. Since they're already married, it's not a bad thing to just make do like this.

But now Song Wanwan is like a rose with thorns, determined to break this balance and escape herself.

Is it really as she said, that she is just unwilling to accept it?

Song Wanwan stopped her horse, turned to Gu Tingzhou, and said, word by word, "Do you love me?"

Gu Tingzhou looked into her cold eyes, a look of detachment creeping into his brows. "..."

Song Wanwan's clear, cold eyes were like ice and snow as she said calmly, "Since you can't answer, then don't do anything else. Getting the divorce certificate from the Civil Affairs Bureau at nine o'clock on Friday morning will be the best relief."

Gu Tingzhou stood on the grass, watching Song Wanwan ride her horse further and further away, her words still echoing in his ears, and he couldn't refute a single one of them.

He doesn't understand Song Wanwan at all; he doesn't even know what she likes to eat, so how could he possibly like her?

He sneered inwardly. Just as Song Wanwan said, divorce was the best option. Even if they didn't divorce now, they would divorce someday. It wasn't that she couldn't stand it, but he himself wouldn't be able to stand it either.
