She knew that Shen Xizhou was waiting for her to beg him pitifully, to grovel before him.
But in the end, she did not fulfill Shen Xizhou's wish.
"Mr. Shen, I understand."
"Thank you for telling me these things."
An Nuan said calmly, without any hint of hysteria.
Shen Xizhou's eyes were filled with surprise. How could this be? How could she be so calm? This was not what he had expected.
Since An Nuan now relied on Nangong Jin, she must care a great deal about Nangong Jin.
She should want to know everything about Nangong Jin's past.
"Don't you want to know who Nangong Jin's fiancée is?"
"Didn't Mr. Shen just say? She was Nangong Jin's former fiancée. That means she has no relationship with Nangong Jin now. Why should I know?"
"What good would knowing this bring me?"
"There's no benefit to you at all," Shen Xizhou said, somewhat puzzled.
He couldn't understand An Nuan at all. How could she be so calm upon hearing such news?
However, after a moment's thought, it made sense. She was a person who had jumped into the sea and survived. How could she be agitated by such a matter?
"His fiancée is dead," Shen Xizhou said coldly.
An Nuan's body stiffened. Nangong Jin's fiancée was dead.
She remembered that in the Nangong family, there was a room that was always locked, and no one ever entered.
It was a taboo in the Nangong family, something no one dared to touch.
So, he was also a man who loved deeply.
His fiancée looked very much like her.
Hearing Shen Xizhou say this, she actually felt a desire to see what kind of girl she was.
But that person was gone.
In that case, she and Nangong Jin were truly both pitiable people.
Shen Xizhou looked at An Nuan.
An Nuan turned, looked at Shen Xizhou calmly, and said coldly, "Mr. Shen, are you done?"
"..." Shen Xizhou hesitated.
"If there's nothing else, then I'll leave now."
As An Nuan was about to leave, she turned back to look at Shen Xizhou, a faint smile on her face, and said, "Mr. Shen, thank you for telling me this good news."
"I didn't know this before. From now on, I will use the rest of my life to be good to Nangong Jin."
"You say I look like Nangong Jin's fiancée, then let me be the one to protect him."
"Let me warm him with myself."
"The world is already too bitter,"
An Nuan said calmly.
Shen Xizhou's gaze fell on An Nuan. He couldn't believe that such words would come from An Nuan's mouth.
Looking at An Nuan before him.
Shen Xizhou was somewhat dazed.
He remembered that the An Nuan of the past had told him that in the future, she would belong only to him, Shen Xizhou.
From then on, her heart would only hold Shen Xizhou, and no one else.
She said: No matter what happens in the future, she would not change her mind.
She also said: If there were any rifts between them, she would risk her life to quell the rift and mend the crack.
She had also said: Even if there were misunderstandings between them, she would use her life and blood to ease their relationship.
Shen Xizhou roared furiously, "An Nuan, you are a liar. Have you forgotten what you said before?"
"You said your heart would always belong only to me."
"You said you wouldn't leave me even if it cost you your life."
"You said, Xizhou, we would be together forever."
"You said, even if we had to die, we would die by my hand."
"You also said that if you ever changed your mind, you begged me to personally execute you."
Listening to Shen Xizhou say these words, An Nuan actually started to laugh.
And she laughed eerily.
It was truly a grand joke that such words could still come from Shen Xizhou's mouth.
"Mr. Shen, do you think it's laughable that you're saying these words again?" An Nuan said sarcastically.
Thinking about the past, how happy it was, made the present so laughable.
She had become a joke.
An Nuan, as if going mad, lunged forward, grabbed Shen Xizhou's collar with her already injured fingers, and gritted her teeth, "Shen Xizhou, anyone can say these words, but you are not worthy."
"You caused everything. What right do you have to bring this up?"
"Love you?"
"Love you with my life?"
An Nuan's face was full of tears, her eyes bloodshot. "Back then, you drove me into the sea step by step. At that moment, I died."
"The An Nuan of today is no longer the An Nuan of before."
"The An Nuan who loved you deeply before is long dead, completely dead."
An Nuan, with all her might, shouted, "Shen Xizhou, do you know? That naive An Nuan, the An Nuan who loved you, is long dead, completely dead."
"That person is no longer in this world."
Listening to An Nuan's words, Shen Xizhou became extremely agitated. He directly pushed An Nuan away.
An Nuan fell into a corner.
But she didn't feel any pain.
She muttered, "Shen Xizhou, I don't owe you anything anymore."
"I've repaid you with my life. I don't owe you anything, nothing at all."
She kept repeating, falling into a state of madness.
At this moment, Shen Xizhou grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up. He let go of An Nuan, tugged at her hair, dragged her to the bathroom, turned on the shower, and doused her with cold water.
Then he threw her aside like a rag.
He exuded a terrifying aura and said coldly, "An Nuan, since you're dead, don't come back."
"If you didn't die completely before, then I'll help you."
Saying this, his hand fell on her neck and tightened forcefully.
An Nuan did not struggle. She only felt that her breathing was difficult, and her hands flailed aimlessly.
Watching An Nuan's flailing hands slowly fall, Shen Xizhou panicked at that moment.
He released his hand, placed his hands on her shoulders, and tried to wake her up.
The thought of An Nuan leaving his sight just like this made Shen Xizhou incredibly flustered and terrified to the extreme.
An Nuan's lips curved into a mocking smile. She found Shen Xizhou's actions extremely laughable.
He actually stopped.
However, she felt that her life was still short.
At this moment, she saw a familiar blurry figure.
She heard a familiar voice in her ear.
It was Nangong Jin, his voice.
Every time she encountered trouble, in moments of crisis, it was Nangong Jin who stepped forward to save her.
He was like her savior.
