Chapter 497: Chapter 497 The Taste of Bone Corrosion

The man declared firmly, unyieldingly.

An Ruo's eyes widened as she trembled with anger.

"So you still want to imprison me, you'll never let me go, will you?!"

"I will compensate you, I'll be very good to you."

"Who cares about your compensation!"

Ignoring her fury, the man held her in his arms and promised solemnly, "If I ever treat you badly, let me be struck by lightning and die a terrible death."

Was he even listening to what she was saying?

Angrily, An Ruo struggled forcefully, but his strength was much greater than hers, and all her efforts were in vain.

"Tang Yuchen, don't go too far. I've already told you the truth, why won't you let me go!"

She thought that by revealing what had happened, he would be ashamed and wouldn't be able to face pestering her anymore.

But far from letting her go, he seemed even more determined to keep her from leaving.

Was his thinking not that of a human being?

If she had known this would happen, she wouldn't have bothered telling him.

The more An Ruo thought about it, the angrier she became, trembling with rage. Worried that she would upset herself sick, Tang Yuchen embraced her, gently stroking her back.

"Don't be angry. If you're upset, take it out on me, but don't make yourself sick."

An Ruo lifted her hands, her fists clenched tightly. She really wanted to hit him, but what good would that do?

"Tang Yuchen, I'm begging you, please let me go." Wouldn't it work even if she pleaded?

Sorrow flashed in the man's eyes as he forced a smile and said, "Baby, don't you remember you promised never to leave me?"

That was all forced by him!

An Ruo's gaze turned cold, and she gradually calmed down. "Fine, have it your way."

Her tone of utter disappointment was like a thorn, deeply piercing his heart, causing him to taste the sharp pain with every breath.

Nothing hurt more than the indifference of a loved one.

But he wasn't going to shrink back from this setback. He would work hard to make her fall in love with him again, to give her happiness.

He never believed in the nonsense that letting her go would bring her happiness.

Because nobody else in this world could love her like he did, he trusted no one but himself.

Only he could give her the greatest happiness, no one could compare to him.

As for the past hurts, he wished they had never happened. But since they had become reality, all he could do was try to make amends, to help her heal from the pain and recover her joy.

Besides, now he had nothing except for her. How could he bear to let her leave?

On the way back, An Ruo had fallen asleep against the back of the seat.

She slept so soundly that Tang Yuchen carried her upstairs without her noticing.

The man tucked her in, took her hand, and watched her silently, his eyes filled with tender affection.

Today, from her words, he sensed there were some issues.

Just because he didn't voice them in front of her didn't mean he wouldn't investigate.

There were too many enemies around him, and he didn't know where to start

He would have to wait until An Ruo woke up and get the full story from her before

he could find a clue.
