Chapter 384: Dark Lights River (VI)
Lu Zhinian's casual smile finally disappeared completely.
From the day he kept Song Nian by his side, Lu Zhinian knew that she was a very smart child.
She just kept escaping to ignore everything that was happening around her.
Even though she was forced into such a situation, she still chose to escape.
Lu Zhinian thought that if he was more ruthless, he should tear off her mask and let her face what happened.
But in the past, he just couldn't bear it, and many times when it really came to the moment of decision, he couldn't make any decisive decision.
But this time, Song Nian touched his bottom line.
"Do you feel wronged?" Lu Zhinian's voice was as cold as ice. He said, "Do you think that I am aggressive and trampled on your dignity and made you miserable?"
Song Nian didn't say anything, Lu Zhinian's words had already touched her soft spot.
She just cried, tears falling one by one, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Lu Zhinian hardened his heart and didn't wipe it for her.
He said: "Nian Nian, your dignity, your respectability, everything you have now, is given to you by me. If you leave the Lu family and lose my protection, you will be nothing."
"I know, Lu Zhinian! I know!" Song Nian's voice was hoarse, her tears fell even more violently, and her body was shaking uncontrollably, "I am nothing without you! I am the little bird you raise, I am the canary, I cannot live under the sky, I can only live in the greenhouse you created, I know it all!"
Lu Zhinian's Adam's apple rolled. He hadn't seen Song Nian cry like this for a long time.
Obviously, what she had just said was too sharp, and she found it difficult to digest it for a moment.
The emotions in Lu Zhinian's eyes were dark. He stared at Song Nian and his voice became colder and colder. "Yes, if you leave me, you will be nothing."
Song Nian nodded and smiled bitterly, "I won't think about leaving anymore. You can do whatever you want. Don't you just want to marry me? Then marry me. I will cooperate with you."
Lu Zhinian felt as if someone had punched him in the heart, neither light nor heavy, hitting the vital point.
He is no longer a young boy and will not ask over and over again whether you love me or not.
But he still couldn't help but admit that he really cared about Song Nian's feelings.
"Yes, I want to marry you. I have wanted to marry you for a long time." Lu Zhinian raised his hand, gently and slowly wiped away Song Nian's tears, and whispered, "Niannian, no man would not want to marry the woman he cares about. You are everything to me."
There was a deep sense of confusion in Song Nian's eyes as she looked at Lu Zhinian. At this moment, the old thorn pierced her flesh again.
The question that had been lingering in Song Nian for a long time was finally asked at this moment.
Her lips trembled, and she suddenly tightly grasped Lu Zhinian's shoulders, her tone breaking: "You care about me, that is, you want me to go to bed with you regardless of my wishes? Lu Zhinian, I already had someone I liked that year! Why didn't you fulfill my wish? "
The atmosphere was completely silent in an instant. Lu Zhinian's pupils were emotionless as he looked at Song Nian's face, which was full of questions.
"You want to know?"
Song Nian's nails dug into Lu Zhinian's clothes. Her eyes were red, but she still looked at him without blinking, "I don't need to know, I guessed it."
Lu Zhinian laughed in anger, "What did you guess?"
"Because you are dark and twisted! You are jealous of my happiness! That's why you ignored my feelings and kept me here!"
Song Nian pulled up the corners of her lips coldly, revealing a smile that didn't match her face. She said, "I'll never forget that when I was a kid I wanted to have a dog, but you threw my puppy into the well and drowned it. You said that since I've been adopted by the Lu family, from now on I can't live as I please!"
Lu Zhinian's expression was extremely calm. He even asked patiently, more and more calmly, "Then what? What is your conclusion?"
"Lu Zhinian, you must have been unhappy since you were a child, right? You can't bear to see people around you happy, so when you knew I fell in love with someone, you destroyed me. You kept me in the Lu family just to watch me suffer day after day for fun! You are a pervert! A lunatic!"
Lu Zhinian really didn't expect that Song Nian's curse words could be so dirty.
She completely exposed her claws, which were so sharp that the bones were visible.
Lu Zhinian held Song Nian's wrist and tightened his grip little by little.
He smiled calmly and said, "Song Nian, you remember everything I did to you so clearly, then you must also remember what I told you not to say anything that you can't bear. When you said these words, did you think about the consequences?"
Song Nian smiled complacently, "I thought about it, you don't want me to die, you are living half-dead like me."
Lu Zhinian's face turned completely pale.
He shook off Song Nian's hand and sneered: "Do you really think that Jiang Ci likes you? Do you think there is any difference between him and Bai Shuci! Song Nian, wake up! They approach you just to use you!"
Song Nian pushed Lu Zhinian away fiercely, "I don't allow you to say that about Jiang Ci! He's dead! He's dead Lu Zhinian, you really disgust me by slandering a dead person"
"You trust Bai Shuci so much, don't you think he's like Jiang Ci?" Lu Zhinian saw through Song Nian. He sneered and said slowly, "But he is not Jiang Ci. He is a complete liar. Fortunately, Jiang Ci is dead, otherwise maybe one day you would find out that he is also a liar!"
"That's enough, I don't want to hear it! Get out! Lu Zhinian, I hate you! You are the person I hate most in my life!" Song Nian's tears fell, she bit her lips tightly and choked, "Jiang Ci is the best person in the world! He is different from you!"
"What's the difference?" Lu Zhinian looked at Song Nian's aggrieved face. He was so angry that even the veins on his forehead trembled. He smiled, but his expression was cold. "We are both men. He is nobler than me? Song Nian, I never regret everything I did for you. It's you who don't understand your position. You want too much, but you don't deserve it."
Song Nian had another nightmare at night.
She stood in the empty hall of the Lu family, looking at the serious-looking middle-aged men sitting on the sofa in front of her, fear all over their young faces.
They were discussing her whereabouts as if she were a commodity.
Until the young man with black hair and white clothes came down from upstairs, he leaned against the fence, his eyes fell, with indifference and arrogance, and a noble air, as if he was not stained by a bit of dust, he said: "This little bean sprout will stay with me, you can go back."
Song Nian was stunned until the young Lu Zhinian stretched out his hand to her and said, "Come with me."
