Chapter 1642: Chapter 1642: Answer Me!
Since then, she went from being an envied young lady to a laughingstock.
Everyone kept quiet to her face out of respect for the Adolf family’s influence, but behind her back, they joked about it mercilessly.
Unable to bear the gossip, she flew to Berlin and caused trouble for Diwu Zexuan.
As long as he was unhappy, she was happy!
“If even you can defeat me, doesn’t that make me seem useless? My woman is naturally protected by me. You don’t need to know anything; just behave and stay by my side.”
Diwu Zexuan patted her head like she was a little puppy.
After a moment, he added, “As for me making you angry, are you sure it isn’t you making me angry, hmm?”
“…”
Rui Hui was stumped by his question.
After hesitating for a moment, she grabbed onto the issue that had been troubling her, “Since you like me, why did you call off the engagement before? You have no idea how many people laughed at me because of this.”
Rui Hui lowered her head silently.
She wasn’t a vain woman, but trying so hard to be her best only to become a joke because of a broken engagement was something she could never forget.
Because of this, knowing Diwu Zexuan was skilled in medicine, she frantically studied it, eager to trample him underfoot and show everyone that giving her up was his loss.
However, the ideal was glorious, but reality was cruel.
Diwu Zexuan was completely a genius, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t surpass him and was overshadowed by him everywhere.
Both her intelligence and emotional intelligence were outmatched entirely, leaving her feeling utterly hopeless.
Whenever Rui Hui thought of this, she wilted like a frost-bitten eggplant.
“Back then we didn’t even know each other, can you guarantee that if I was slower to break off the engagement, you wouldn’t have done it first?” Diwu Zexuan placed his large hand on her head, staring at her intently.
Rui Hui’s eyes darted guiltily, avoiding his gaze.
“Anyway, it’s because of you that people laughed at me, and now we’re together, what does that count as?”
“You don’t like me?” Diwu Zexuan pressed down harder on her head, forcing her to look at him directly.
His gaze bore a warning.
Rui Hui blinked her innocent eyes, biting her lip in distress.
Like? Or not like?
She seemed to have never seriously considered this question.
When she first left America, she did feel strange, but she had no idea what was going on with her.
It wasn’t until last night when Diwu Zexuan suddenly appeared in front of her.
At that moment, she was frightened, so frightened that she overlooked the joy in her heart.
Thinking back now, the emptiness she felt must have been missing him.
But she hated him so much, how could she want him?
“Answer me!” Diwu Zexuan gripped her chin, forcing her to look up.
The confidence in his eyes vanished completely due to her long silence.
In its place was a trace of panic.
He seemed to have forgotten how slow she was with emotions, maybe she never even thought about liking him.
And what he wanted was more than just her liking him.
If her answer was no, what would he do?
Force her to stay by his side whether she liked it or not?
When did Diwu Zexuan ever need to resort to such despicable methods to keep someone…?
“I don’t know.” Rui Hui bit her lip, looking somewhat bewildered.
“…”
His foresight proven right, Diwu Zexuan’s feelings were complicated.
