Raising her head, she cried and laughed mockingly at the same time.

What was this? Were the Gods making a cruel joke of her?

An unknown man took her virginity and forced her to submit to him repeatedly. After sullying her body, she bore witness to Ji Jingfeng’s unfaithfulness.

Was this a consolation or punishment?

It was too ironic.

“Anan.”

Ji Jingfeng came chasing, halting outside the fountain, restraining himself before continuing to go towards Ji Anning.

“Don’t come over…” when Ji Anning turned to see Ji Jingfeng, she retreated, “Leave me alone to calm down. Don’t come over.”

It was the first time she genuinely felt that fate was being unfair to her.

As Jingfeng once saved her with utter disregard for his life, she was determined to spend a lifetime with him, but he was unexpectedly unappreciative.

He had only kept up the appearance of being with her because it was a matter of life-and-death to him.

Judging from how intimate he was with Bai Guo, they must have been together for a while.

Since he grew up with Bai Guo as childhood friends, they would be deemed childhood sweethearts if they were together.

As for her, she was medication from start to finish for the Jis. A superstitious cure that the fortune teller said could save Ji Jingfeng.

In reality, she knew everything full well in her heart and that Ji Jingfeng probably saved her heroically because of this.

But she suddenly resented the way the Gods treated and insulted her.

Right after she got blindfolded and raped, she bumped into the fiancée, whom she grew up with, having an affair with another woman.

Yet she was utterly unconfident as she was neither in the position nor had the authority to blame him or even have the cheek to be angry.

Was this not punishment?

As Ji Anning retreated to the center of the fountain, with her back against the man-made rockery, she had nowhere to run. Bending over, she placed her head between her knees and broke down crying.

This time that proud youth’s sarcasm and disdain no longer had any effect.

All she wanted was to cry. To cry uninhibitedly, and let out all the tears she fought to repress all these years.

As they say, it will be fine… after you let all your tears out.

“Anan…” Ji Jingfeng steadily halted.

Looking at Ji Anning, he called her gently with a tone and appearance of guilt and remorse.

Raising her face, with tears and water blending on Ji Anning’s face, her vision got blurred. All she saw was Ji Jingfeng’s long slender body standing before her. But she could not see his face, and it was as though she never once discerned it.

She wept as she said, “Go now, Jingfeng. Can you give me some space to think? I don’t want to see you now.”

Not only had she no wish to see him, but she also did not want to see anyone at all.

At that, Ji Jingfeng’s hands fell to his side. As he squeezed his fists tightly, his footsteps came to a stop. Given Ji Anning’s attitude, he was afraid to go forward.

He was worried that if she kept running, she would go straight home in this state.

In the end, his mother might forgive him because she doted on him, but it was unlikely that his grandfather would dismiss it easily, and it would implicate Bai Guo.

As Ji Jingfeng contemplated, he bent over slightly in an attempt to bring himself closer to Ji Anning, “You’re going to get sick if you stay like this.”

Ji Anning lowered her head, ignoring him as she tucked her chin down and sobbed.

Detecting that she was receptive, Ji Jingfeng attempted to reach out and pull her, “Let’s find a place for you to get changed. Can you let me explain?”

But before his hand touched her arm, Ji Anning abruptly reached out and shoved his hand aside, “I honestly don’t need your explanation. You really don’t owe me an explanation.”
