Chapter 863 I Have Only Ever Loved One Woman
“But I’m just an unreasonable person. If you make her unhappy, I’ll naturally make sure you’re unhappy too. Li Ru’an, even if you have a million grievances in your heart, you must do as I say. Otherwise, I won’t let you leave this villa.” The man’s gentle tone was nonetheless tinged with a violence that couldn’t be ignored.
She was clear about what kind of person he was; right now, to him, she was just a servant. Angering him meant he would show no mercy.
An Ruo clenched her fists, lowered her gaze, and asked calmly, “Why, if you don’t like her, why are you protecting her?”
This was not his style; it was impossible for him to intervene because of this trivial conflict between women.
Tang Yuchen suddenly fell silent, leaving An Ruo even more puzzled.
“Could it be… you actually like her?” she asked, trembling, “Do you have… feelings for her?”
The man shot her a fierce look, stopping her words.
His thin lips almost pressed into a line, and the contours of his resolute jaw became even more pronounced.
An Ruo’s heart slowly sank into despair.
She remembered what Han Xiaofen had said: “Meeting him was destiny… I resemble the Young Master’s mother in appearance… So heaven allowed me to meet the Young Master, wanting me to take the place of the Young Master’s mother, to be by their side… I love him very, very much… I am the person most suited to be with him in this world!”
Had he really developed feelings for her?
Was this truly destiny?
Then what about her, why did she continue to live?
An Ruo’s face turned pale, feeling her body go cold, so cold that her teeth chattered.
“Don’t randomly guess my intentions!” Tang Yuchen suddenly shouted, interrupting her thoughts and bringing her back to awareness.
He abruptly stood up, his hands on the table, leaning forward to meet her gaze closely.
“There’s only one woman I love in this lifetime! I will always only love her. Listen carefully, if you dare say I like that servant again, be careful I’ll be rude to you!”
An Ruo widened her eyes in shock, listening as he continued, “Do you know why I stood up for her?”
He rummaged in the drawer and fiercely held a photo frame up in front of her.
“Look carefully at the person inside; she is the woman I love the most!”
That was… a photo of her from before…
An Ruo dumbly stared at the photo of herself, her eyes trembling intensely.
She was the woman he loved the most, he said he only loved her in this lifetime…
“Did you see her face clearly? I will never let anyone who upsets that face go!”
“You…” An Ruo was astonished, “So just because she resembles the woman you love, you stood up for her?”
Tang Yuchen sneered coldly, “What else would you expect?”
“You don’t like her?”
The man instantly got angry, “I think I’ve made myself clear, try saying it wrong again and see what happens!”
Recognizing the sign, An Ruo shut her mouth, not daring to ask if he liked Han Xiaofen.
However, his reasoning was too baffling. Rather than protecting Han Xiaofen, it was more like he was protecting her face.
Just because Han Xiaofen resembled her, he…
“Young Master, seeing her face every day, haven’t you ever been moved?” She forgot herself and dared to touch his bottom line again.
Tang Yuchen’s face instantly turned ashen, his cold gaze fixed on her, scaring her into swallowing nervously.
He pinched her chin, a playful smirk curling his lips.
