Chapter 431 - 431 432 Meeting (4)_1
?Chapter 431: Chapter 432: Meeting (4)_1 Chapter 431: Chapter 432: Meeting (4)_1 But truly, she really didn’t want to go back to those days!
“I don’t know, but these days, some women are truly becoming more and more shameless, willing to do anything to become famous.”
“This type of person, even if they become popular, I would still despise them from the bottom of my heart. S-selling their bodies for attention, it’s disgusting.”
“Haohao, you’re so good, you definitely wouldn’t do anything scandalous like that.”
In Jing Haohao’s mind, those hurtful rumors instantly surfaced. If indeed it was revealed by Liang Chen the next day that she was in the photo, then she…
Jing Haohao clenched her lower lip, feeling a layer of despair rising from her heart.
She bit down especially hard, until the metallic taste of blood filled her mouth. Yet she didn’t much feel like releasing her jaws.
…
Jing Haohao spent the night dreaming, dreaming of fragments of her memories. Her parents took her to the amusement park, she secretly climbed the fruit tree in their yard, she met Shen Liangnian, she waited at the intersection of the small town for Shen Liangnian to return…
All her dreams revolved around that small town. In her dreams, in her mind, she kept reminding herself never to dream about Jiangshan City.
In the end, Jing Haohao woke up crying upon finding out that her parents had been swept away by a flood.
At that time, she found her parents among the bloated corpses soaked in water. Their hands were tightly clasped together, inseparable. She reached out her tiny hand to grip theirs, but they didn’t grip her tiny hand in return.
When she was young, she didn’t hesitate to complain about her parents. But that was the first time in her life that she blamed her parents so forcefully. How could they simply hold hands and leave together, leaving her behind? What should she do if someone bullies her? What should she do then?
Now, someone really was bullying her…but she had no haven to rely on.
Jing Haohao stared blankly with red, swollen eyes. When she looked at the slightly lightening sky outside the window, she could feel a boundless sadness tumbling in the softest part of her heart.
In her dreams, there was only her. When she woke up, it was still only her. And the only one to face things was her.
Jing Haohao swallowed down her spit with a pale face, reached for her phone, and realised it was four o’clock in the morning.
That man must be sleeping soundly, right?
He treated her so cruelly…she was now plagued by nightmares and couldn’t sleep, yet how could he peacefully sleep, readying to ruin her reputation by eight o’clock the next morning?
Upon thinking of this, Jing Haohao threw off the blanket, got out of bed, ran to the wardrobe, and fumbled on the bottom shelf for the mobile phone that Liang Chen had once bought for her. Clenching her teeth, she turned it on.
A series of text messages flooded into the phone, most from Shen Liangnian, and one from Liang Chen.
It was from about ten days ago.
It was a simple message: “Haohao, where are you?”
Just by looking at this line of text, Jing Haohao could imagine Liang Chen’s frosty face and his gloomy expression.
She pursed her lips and opened his message.
Ultimately, she couldn’t resist his coercion. Deep down, she knew her love had been ruined by Shen Liangnian, and she definitely wouldn’t allow Liang Chen to destroy her life and future.
But, when she truly caved into Liang Chen, she found that her inner sense of dignity and obstinacy were desperately resisting.
