The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1420 - 1419: A Forced Melon Never Tastes Sweet

"Perhaps, maybe that's what it should mean."Tang Rao sighed, considering himself a nobody, neither outstanding in looks nor ability, wondering what Zhang Kexin saw in him.

"There are already enough women around me. Maybe you said you wouldn't compete with them for affection, adding you wouldn't make much difference, but I have my considerations. I can't bring in another woman to share my love, nor can I let you suffer like them. Most importantly, a forced love won't be sweet."

Tang Rao has never spoken so much at once; if he did, it was only because he truly felt bothered by Zhang Kexin's persistence.

Zhang Kexin traveled from afar to find Tang Rao, showing she genuinely cared for him. Tang Rao hoped Zhang Kexin would accept the reality of them not being together willingly.

"I know, I understand everything you said."

Zhang Kexin almost finished the entire jug of wine from Tang Rao.

"I've known for a while that you don't love me. I came here just to find peace of mind, to hear your rejection countless times from your mouth. I think it's time to say I've given up, Tang Rao, thank you for showing me what it feels like to like someone."

The words of love were so long, making Zhang Kexin feel like they could last a lifetime. Yet so short, that once spoken, it meant they'd never be together again.

She doesn't hate Tang Rao; she only regrets knowing him later than others, that's all.

"Since you're upset, I'll head home first. You should rest here for a couple of days before leaving; the scenery is beautiful, suitable for healing."

Healing the wounds of the heart and soul.

Zhang Kexin tried to smile at Tang Rao, but she didn't know her smile looked worse than crying.

"Alright, take it slow on your way back."

Tang Rao showed no intention of keeping Zhang Kexin, and her heart sank as she walked straight out without looking back.

Once outside the inn, she couldn't help but cry.

She struggled to break free from An Sheng, to understand what it feels like to love, and after confessing to Tang Rao, acknowledging the emotions in her heart, repeated failures left Zhang Kexin dispirited.

Why return to the Zhang Family, only to think about going outside that gloomy residence to see Tang Rao? She'd think of Tang Rao, destined to become her nightmare.

"Oh, I wondered which family's girl couldn't find her way back and was crying here, turns out it's you."

A man with a bamboo pole had been following Zhang Kexin for a while. He appeared only when she reached a deserted area.

"Let me guess what's wrong with you? If I'm right, the man you like didn't accept you, right? Tsk tsk, personally delivered to the inn and still not accepted, shows how unwelcome you are."

An Sheng's words nauseated Zhang Kexin, puzzled as to how An Sheng knew she was here.

"An Sheng, what do you want now?"

Zhang Kexin bristled like a prickly hedgehog, fully wary of An Sheng since his sly intentions emerged. Facing him, her disgust surged.

"I don't want anything much, after all, I've pursued you for so long. Suddenly appearing beside you, you can understand it as I'm seeking you, or something else. No matter the interpretation, the result won't change, which is I want to sleep with you."

An Sheng's vulgar words entered Zhang Kexin's ears, making her feel even more revolted by his shamelessness. How dare he think? Want to sleep with Zhang Kexin? He should consider his worth.

Zhang Kexin backed away repeatedly, finding a spot farther from An Sheng, staying on guard: "An Sheng, keep your mouth clean. Don't think I don't know about your family's dirty deeds towards ours. I was blind before, arduously seeking someone to save your life. My eyes have opened, I won't believe your words again, and I don't want to be entangled with someone like you."

Zhang Kexin tried to calm her heart; only with reason could she think of ways to stay away from An Sheng.

"Really? Only now you see my true colors?"

An Sheng walked a few steps toward Zhang Kexin, significantly shortening the distance between them, observing her tear-streaked beauty, realizing he liked Zhang Kexin even more.

"Even if you've seen my true colors, you haven't seen other parts of me yet. If you do, maybe you'll suddenly like me, who knows. Why not give us a chance to completely get to know each other, really get to know each other, then think about whether we're suitable or not, how about that?"

The lewd laughter echoed, and An Sheng's intentions were clear. If he got any closer, Zhang Kexin was ready to scream.

What kind of chance to get to know each other deeply, Zhang Kexin wasn't naive; she knew that wasn't a good suggestion.

"You scoundrel, shameless, An Sheng, I'm telling you, if you dare touch a hair on Zhang Kexin's head, my entire Zhang Family won't spare you. So what if the An Family is powerful? The Zhang Family isn't easy to deal with either. My grandpa will avenge me for sure."

Her grandpa cares about Zhang Kexin and wouldn't bear for her to suffer such grievances outside.

"No problem, though the Zhang Family is strong, not as formidable as the An Family. Before finding you, I've thought about it, isn't the Zhang Family looking to avenge on the An Family? Since we'll clash sooner or later, why not let me have you first, then make a move, at least it fulfills me, wouldn't you agree?"

An Sheng's intentions were clear, Zhang Kexin felt even encountering a beast was better than facing a scoundrel like An Sheng, a guy with such filth always in his mouth.

"An Sheng, shut up, keep your mouth closed!"

With exquisite features on a delicate face, Zhang Kexin's expressions turned sour with An Sheng's verbal attack, her face slightly twisted.

"Little beauty, you used to cling to your Brother An Sheng, how come now you're turning your back on me?"

An Sheng stepped on the lingering snow, crunching underfoot, closing the distance between himself and Zhang Kexin.

"An Sheng, don't come closer; I won't let you have your way. If you approach again, I'll commit suicide!"

Zhang Kexin spoke resolutely to An Sheng.

Once she committed suicide, the soul jade plate would shatter, Zhang Yunfei would immediately know something happened to Zhang Kexin, given Zhang Yunfei's skills, he'd arrive at the scene before An Sheng could escape.

Zhang Kexin's thought was quite clever, though execution seemed difficult.

"Hmm, every word you said reminds me, I must treat you well later, can't let you die, rest assured I won't be that foolish."
