Living With a Temperamental Adonis: 99 Proclamations of Love

Therefore, when he saw her bend over so respectfully and obsequiously helped Mr. Smith with his shoes, he was feeling all sorts of annoyed inside his heart.

Therefore, when she greeted him so detachedly and professionally at Four Seasons, he was irked.

Therefore, when she came to his company to ask him for him, he couldn’t help himself from chasing after her right after he chased her away with snide comments and mocking words.

Therefore, when Mrs. Cheng came, he tried his best to play the role of the son-in-law. He thought he was only acting, but now he realized, he was sincerely concerned about Mrs. Cheng and wanted to be good to her because she was Cheng Qingchong’s mother.

Therefore, when she told him that she would sleep on the sofa, he was so angry and became even more incensed when she seemed to surrender to his savage desire.

Therefore, this was why he found himself thinking about her often after she left...

His emotional reaction belied how his heart really felt. Similarly, when he waved his arm to toss the ring into the river, it might have looked that way, but he was merely tossing a coin. However, it flew so fast that she couldn’t catch a good look.

But why would he do such a thing then? It was a question he had refused to face.

Qin Yinan slowly put down the crumpled paper and stood up to stagger to his desk. He squatted down to pick up the divorce certificate and the velvet box. He opened the box, and the ring that sat within caught the reflecting light and blinded his eyes.

Right then, as if cursed, the song that she was listening to on the sofa and the song he heard yesterday in his car drifted into his ears.

"I believe I still need to learn, to not close my eyes when I’m sad. Before the tears form, let them evaporate into mist..."

"When I think about you, there’s a despairing disappointment. That familiar shadow by the street makes my heart bleed..."

A despairing disappointment... Did she feel the same emotion and that was why she was listening to this song?

A despairing disappointment... Was that everything he had given to her?

Qin Yinan’s fingers that held the box started to tremble.

"When I think about you again, it’s the reason I cannot hide. I believe I can get over your love, but in the sleepless night, I’ve thought about you again..."

I believe I can get over your love but in the sleepless night, I’ve thought about you again.

He used all those lies that she had constructed around him to deny the truth of his heart. He thought this would help him stave away the guilt. But in so many sleepless nights, he had thought about her again... and again...

...

Seven days passed by soon enough.

The house Jin Ze had arranged for Cheng Qingchong was a high-end residential area in Shanghai. By standing next to the window, she could see out at the glittering Huangpu River.

The river looked incredibly beautiful at night, reflecting both the starlight and the city light.

The house came with an old homemaker who would prepare scrumptious meals for Cheng Qingchong every day. The old nanny also told her,should she want to leave the house to take a stroll, she could call for a driver.

Cheng Qingchong replied, "Thank you, but it won’t be necessary."

She wasn’t being polite—it was just that even if she didn’t venture out, there would be new clothes, bags, and jewellery that would be mailed to the house every day.

All of them came from expensive brands and were from the latest line, but none of them struck Cheng Qingchong’s fancy.

Cheng Qingchong did see a picture of Jin Ze’s ex-wife once; he had shown it to her when he approached her with the offer three years ago.
