Beware the Appearing Cute Wife!

As soon as Tong Xi heard this, she instantly flared up.

"Gu Zhengming, can’t you understand human language? I’ve made it very clear to you that there’s nothing between us, so please don’t pester me anymore, and stop lingering around my house. You’re causing trouble for my family. Please leave immediately, don’t make me call the police!"

On the other side, Gu Zhengming heard Tong Xi’s resolute voice, and his eyes turned bleak.

On the night of the Lantern Festival, he really... didn’t know where to go.

The world outside was bustling, but he stayed in that mansion and felt... utterly lonely, without even a person to talk to.

Gu Zhengming stood at the door of the Tong Family, his deep eyes quietly gazing at the big gate.

At this moment, there were two big red lanterns hanging on the Tong Family’s gate, the light inside their soft gauze covers was so gentle yet warm, while the faintly swaying street lights cast unclear shadows on his face.

Gu Zhengming’s face was marked with gloom and desolation.

He recalled the past, during winter break, she would stay for a few extra days, even until after the Lantern Festival... just to keep him from feeling so lonely.

Back then, the two of them would make small lanterns together, and although they were quite ugly when finished, he was... so happy during that process.

How long has it been... since he felt that kind of happiness?

Clearly, he already possessed everything he wanted.

But his heart felt empty.

As if someone had carved out a huge hole, bloody and impossible to fill...

"Tong Xi, is it that, only if I die, you’ll be willing to... forgive me?"

Such a desolate tone, such a humble voice, made Tong Xi’s head buzz, feeling a bit overwhelmed.

What is he talking about?

"Gu Zhengming, how old are you? You’re still playing such childish games? I’m telling you, there’s nothing between us, I don’t hate you, and there’s nothing to forgive. Just leave! And please don’t harass me anymore in the future!"

After Tong Xi’s words fell, she heard a bang at the door, as if something had hit it.

Tong Xi’s heart skipped a beat.

Could it be... Gu Zhengming!

What is this person trying to do?

When will it end?

Tong Xi quickly walked to the door, pulled open the latch, only to see a silhouette forlornly fall to the ground.

It really was... Gu Zhengming.

But in this freezing weather, he was only wearing a shirt... What kind of stunt is this?

Is this person crazy?

"Gu Zhengming, you’ve really had enough!"

Gu Zhengming looked at Tong Xi before him and smiled sadly.

"Hmm, you finally came out to see me!"

But she only came out... under such a threat.

Tong Xi squinted her eyes, "Gu Zhengming, I thought I made things clear enough with you. Is it meaningful for you to keep pestering me like this? Do you know what ’spilt water cannot be gathered up’ means? Once water is spilled, it can never be reclaimed. Do you know what ’a good horse doesn’t turn back to feed on old pasture’ means? It’s because it’s hard to swallow! So, stop pestering me. Go away! I don’t want to see you anymore in the future!"

At this moment, Gu Zhengming suddenly laughed and pulled something out of his pocket.

"Do you remember... what this is?"

When Gu Zhengming spread that thing out on his palm, Tong Xi’s eyelids jumped fiercely.

It turned out to be... a knife.

Swiss Army Knife!

Very familiar!

That was a birthday gift she gave him... years ago!
