The two did not converse at all during the entire journey back.

The temperature between them had dropped to lower than zero.

Mu Sihan held onto the steering wheel with one hand and a cigar in his other hand. His handsome face was completely tense while his eyebrows were furrowed deeply. He kept exhaling long breaths of smoke, as if only nicotine could relieve the stuffiness he felt inside his chest.

He did not look at Nan Zhi again. He also did not have the face to look at her after doing such a brutal and animalistic thing to her.

She was right. He was a devil and pervert.

He was not worthy of getting her affection.

It was normal for her to despise and hate him!

Nan Zhi hugged her chest with both her hands tightly. She leaned against the car window as she stared blankly out of the window with completely reddened eyes.

She was so empty and confused that it seemed like someone had sucked away her soul.

Pain and bitterness arose in her chest. She suddenly felt like her life was a complete mess.

She felt an overwhelming sense of helplessness and a sadness she couldn’t dispel.

Meeting Mu Sihan, was she lucky or unlucky?

He was probably the greatest calamity in her life!

He kept smoking and the strong scent of nicotine floated into her nose occasionally. It was a familiar, yet unfamiliar smell that made her chest feel like a sponge had been stuffed inside. Just a hard squeeze would be enough to make salty tears flow from her eyes.

She did not hear from him personally about what type of feelings he had for her.

However, she was very conscious that it was not as simple as mere attraction.

Why wouldn’t he let her go?

…

The car arrived at the entrance of the district. Yi Fan was already waiting there.

Mu Sihan parked the car, though he did not unlock the doors. Nan Zhi could not push the door open.

Yi Fan passed Mu Sihan the item that he wanted through the window that was wound down.

Immediately after, the window was wound up again.

Nan Zhi’s long eyelashes trembled. Her voice was hoarse and tight. “What else do you want to do?”

Mu Sihan opened the medicine bottle and swallowed several pulls. He opened his mouth after his emotions had stabilized. His voice was hoarse as he said in a detached manner, “I developed bipolar disorder after my adoptive father’s accident. Since then, my condition would act up whenever someone mentioned that accident if I didn’t take my medication. I have a psychological illness that is much more serious than you think…”

Nan Zhi buried her petite face into her arms. She did not look at him, but she could feel his deep and dark gaze looking at her.

She bit her lips tightly. She did not think that he would take the initiative and mention his illness.

Many sick people were not willing to be frank about their condition to others, especially people who were as arrogant as him. It left him raw and exposed, opening himself up for her to condemn him for life.

“You asked if I wanted to take revenge on you for what happened that year…” Pursing his lips into a thin line, his eyes darkened, sharp and piercing. “That car accident was just an accident. Although I hated your uncle for drink-driving, and your maternal grandfather for suppressing the Mu family back then, many years have passed. I don’t want to use those feelings to take revenge on you.”

Nan Zhi lifted her head slowly and looked at him. His facial features were blurry amongst the smoke and it was hard to see his expression. However, she could faintly feel the loneliness he felt.

He lifted his head to look at her after a few seconds.

Both pairs of eyes met.

He pursed his thin lips tightly again as only coldness remained in his dark orbs. “However, I never thought about falling in love with you. It was unexpected and not part of any plan. I forced you to stay by my side for one year, only because I felt like you suited my taste.”

He took out the contract that Yi Fan had brought over in front of her. It seemed like he had used all of his energy to say the words that followed.

“Nan Zhi, I won’t force you anymore in the future. Congratulations. You’ve won. You’re free.”

It might have been fated from the start that the two of them should not have met with their completely different paths in life.

Although they were not in love, this contract had brought their fates together.

Without the contract, she was now free and he no longer had the excuse to forcefully have her and bind their lives together.

Yes, she had won. She finally regained her freedom.
