Chapter 852 - Won’t Force You Again (2/2)

Mu Sihan suddenly came forward and pulled Nan Zhi into his arms tightly.

“Did you forget you said that you would never leave me again!” He buried his face into her neck and took in the scent from her body. “I won’t agree to you leaving!”

Nan Zhi’s heart was throbbing in pain. She almost could not hold back the tears in her eyes.

Closing her eyes, she pulled away his hand on her waist.

She raised her head, meeting his deep dark eyes, her heart felt like a knife was twisted inside it. “Sihan, maybe we’re really not suitable for each other. We’re always encountering this and that when we’re together and on tenterhooks everyday. I don’t want to be a Princess, I feel very tired. Please let me go. If I stay, I’ll only be unhappy!”

Mu Sihan looked at her determined expression and his pupils constricted. “You can abandon me so easily, but what about Xiaojie? He’s your son, can you really bear to leave him?”

If it was before, Nan Zhi would definitely have taken Xiaojie with her.

But now, he was used to the royal life and was doing outstandingly well in the training camp. He had grown up, became sensible and would understand her in the future!

“Mu Sihan, you don’t have to say anything more. I believe you’ll take care of Xiaojie when I’m not around.”

Nan Zhi’s voice had just fallen when her face was held by his large and strong hands. He put his forehead against hers, his breath heavy and his eyes red.

He said nothing, lowered his head and pressed his lips against hers.

He invaded her mouth, sucking her tongue hard, like he was fighting for power against her in a hidden war. He was aggressive as if he wanted to eat her up.

Nan Zhi’s scalp turned numb and her breathing was chaotic, but her rationality was still there. She clenched her hands into fists, reminding herself that she could not sink into his kiss.

She could not be so selfish anymore.

Lifting her hands, she pushed him away.

Mu Sihan’s tall body retreated several steps by her push.

The strength in his body seemed to have been drained away. He fell to the chair, looking at the determined woman in a dazed manner.

He had his hand on his forehead, a bitter smile appearing on his thin lips. “I can’t make you stay, can I?”

Nan Zhi did not speak.

But in a moment like this, silence spoke more than a million words.

The bitter and mocking smile on his lips deepened.

He did not look at her anymore, only looking at a spot in the garden and said in a deep and hoa.r.s.e voice, “You have your difficulties and thoughts. I’m just keeping an empty sh.e.l.l if I force you to stay by my side.

“I’ve been pus.h.i.+ng you too much and you always felt that I didn’t respect you enough. Alright. This time, I will respect your decision.”

His eyes became redder, but there was no expression on his handsome face, just like a frozen lake with no ripples. “You have thought it through and no one will wait for anyone. I won’t wait for you again if you leave!”

Nan Zhi heard his words and her heart was numb with pain. How could she not know that after leaving her, he would find a better woman? The world would only continue to spin. It was her that chose to give it all up, so she would bear all the consequences!

Her teeth chattered and her lips trembled, it was only after a while that she replied. “I know. If you meet someone suitable, get together with her. Sihan, I hope you will be happy.”

A cold smirk appeared on Mu Sihan’s lips, the coldness that flashed past his eyes enough to make her s.h.i.+ver. “I don’t need you to worry about my happiness. Since you want to leave, get out now!”

With that, he stopped looking at her, as if he would tear her into shreds if he looked at her again!

Nan Zhi’s heart was filled with panic and confusion. She bit her lip hard, looked at him one last time and lifted her legs that were heavy as lead and left with heavy steps.
