Rong Weiwei did not detect anything amiss in his words, her mind filled with the rumors she had seen online, and she asked directly, âI saw the news about you online, saying you went into the police station last night. Itâs not true, is it?â
She still harbored a glimmer of hope, imagining that things werenât that bad.
Shi Mufengâs response plunged her into hell, âItâs true.â
Rong Weiweiâs fingertips clenched the phone, struggling to keep herself from crying out, âWhy?â
Wasnât she enough for him?
As a popular rising actress, she had both beauty and a great figure, and myriad male fans adored her. And yet, her own official boyfriend had gone out to play around?
Wouldnât anyone find that laughable?
Was she even worth less than a call girl who might only cost a few thousand yuan?
Feeling deeply humiliated, Rong Weiwei bit her lip, her voice trembling, âMufeng, why? You werenât like this before, when did you start changing? Is it because I did something wrong that you turned out this way?â
Shi Mufengâs chest was already heavy with various issues, and Rong Weiweiâs accusatory questioning made him even more irritable, âI drank too much last night, Iâm sorry, Wei.â
His apology felt light and insubstantial to Rong Weiwei, like a needle piercing her heart.
âI donât want your apology, I want to know where we went wrong. Why would you go to a nightclub late at night? I remember you never used to do that. Even for such occasions, you would take me with you.â
Shi Mufeng took a deep breath, his temples throbbing from her nagging. He pinched the bridge of his nose, hailed a cab by the roadside, got in, then said impatiently, âWei, Iâm really tired now, can we talk about this after Iâve rested a bit?â
âI want to talk about it now. I want to know what happened last night. As your girlfriend, I only found out when you made the news. Do you understand how I feel? Do you know how hurt I felt when I was told that you were called out for seeking fun in a nightclub⦠â
In Shi Mufengâs mind, last night was a setup, and he still believed that he was arrested because Li Shengxiao had set a trap for him in advance.
When Rong Weiwei brought up last nightâs incident again, it was tantamount to rubbing salt into his wounds. He cut her off, âEverything youâre saying, I know, but Wei, Iâm really tired right now. As for last night, I donât have anything to explain to you, I drank too much, and if you want an explanation, all I can do is say Iâm sorry. If you canât accept that, Iâm willing to take whatever punishment you think I deserve, including if you choose to break up.â
Rong Weiweiâs voice stopped abruptly, âYou⦠what are you saying?â
Shi Mufeng propped his head with one hand, looking completely disheveled, his eyes shadowed by dark circles that made him seem more sinister than before, âIâm saying I accept whatever punishment you have for me, even if you want to break up with me over this, I have no complaints.â
Rong Weiwei took a deep breath, her beautiful face first showed disbelief and then turned to anger, âMufeng, do you still remember the promise you made to me, that you would always treat me well, protect me for life? I believed your words and, ignoring my sisterâs feelings, mustered the courage to be with you. And now youâre telling me you want to break up?â
What kind of joke was he playing on her!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
