Chapter 2780 - 2773: Unforgivable

A remark that wasn’t particularly familiar once again deeply pierced Luo Tong’s heart.

Thinking about it now, it’s indeed laughable.

She had considered Ning Chenyang as, apart from her foster father, the closest person to her. No, an even closer person than her foster father. She had shared everything about herself with him.

Yet, in his mind, she was merely someone he wasn’t familiar with.

"Enough! I don’t want to discuss this matter with you anymore." Luo Tong said, feeling agitated, as she habitually reached into her bag for a cigarette.

She doesn’t remember when she learned to smoke.

But when feeling agitated, smoking a cigarette quickly helps her calm down.

Ning Chenyang, seeing her adeptly lighting a cigarette and smoking, couldn’t help but furrow his brows: "You’re smoking? That’s not something a girl should do."

"Then tell me what girls should do?" Luo Tong took a deep drag on her cigarette and blew it towards Ning Chenyang’s face.

The choking smell immediately entered Ning Chenyang’s nostrils, deepening his frown as he reached out to pull the cigarette from her fingers, tossed it to the ground, and stomped on it.

"Hey, what does this mean? Your behavior is extremely disrespectful, do you know that?" Luo Tong looked at the cigarette extinguished on the ground, growing furious.

"I dislike women smoking!" Ning Chenyang said as he looked at her, "It’s a very bad habit, you should quit it."

"Quit?" Luo Tong laughed coldly, "What right do you have to control me? What rights do you have? What is our relationship?"

"Friends." Ning Chenyang looked at her with furrowed brows, "As your friend, I don’t like to see you smoking. You’re ruining your health!"

"I do as I please, can you even control that?" Luo Tong raised her chin, "Let me tell you, from the moment you reported my foster father and ruined my life, I no longer recognized you as a friend. In my heart, there’s only hate towards you!"

"I’m sorry! Luo Tong, I didn’t want to hurt you. However, for the harm already caused to you, I feel deeply apologetic. How have you been these years... Did you..."

Before Ning Chenyang could finish, Luo Tong interrupted him: "Not well. My foster father’s uncle took me away! My brother and I were fostered there. At fifteen, I was demanded to marry the uncle’s stupid son! I disagreed, but they forced me! I resisted, and they abused my brother..."

At this point, Luo Tong’s eyes reddened, her voice choked up, unable to continue.

Ning Chenyang quietly gazed at her, until her emotions calmed down, and she continued: "Later, my brother was tortured into illness, and I had no choice but to agree. I married the fool, but they said if I didn’t sleep with the fool, they wouldn’t treat my brother’s illness... When I finally made up my mind, it was too late to save my brother! That night, I stabbed the fool, fled the house! After reporting to the police, my brother was already dead... I don’t want to talk about the later things with you. Ning Chenyang, all of this was caused by you! You lit the fuse, causing my life to deviate from its original path, and I hate you! I will never forgive you in this lifetime."

Ning Chenyang froze, never expecting Luo Tong’s subsequent experiences to be so rough.

"I’m sorry..."

"Saying sorry ten thousand times is useless." Luo Tong threw out a statement and turned to leave.

As she walked, she shed tears. Clearly, she had hurried over from afar just after seeing the news, eager to meet him, but hadn’t expected a few words to lead the conversation to an uncontrollable situation.
