Chapter 1443: 1443

Ye Youyou had just been sold out by her most-trusted sister . The emotions in her heart were complicated . She knew that Ye Qianqian’s actions were for her own good .

Honestly speaking, Li Jinnan was indeed a good man . Regardless of whether it was his status, background, character, or looks, they were all faultless . It was precisely because of that she was hesitant to go further .

The gap between the both of them was far too wide . In the first place, there was still a huge problem standing between them . Her marriage .

“Let’s go . ” Li Jinnan’s voice was low and slow . He had a seductive charisma that couldn’t be described .

Ye Youyou took a long breath and ambled along slowly with Li Jinnan . The two of them were quiet the whole way . Soon, they were by the Kingstown River .

The night wind was cool . The lights around them reflected on the surface of the water . It was a beautiful sight . Just like the man beside her, it was out of her reach .

“GM Li,” Ye Youyou gazed ahead at river, her eyes never leaving the twinkling reflections . “I…”

“Calling me GM Li is too formal . ” Li Jinnan held a cigarette between his fingers as he tapped the ashes off . “I don’t like it . Change your form of address . ”

Ye Youyou was silent . She looked at the glow of the cigarette between his fingers and replied, “I don’t think we are well-suited for each other . ”

Li Jinnan chuckled . His eyes, chilly like the night wind, swept across her from head to toe . “I think we suit each other perfectly . ”

“We think…” Ye Youyou paused to consider her words before continuing . “I think the gap between us is too great . ”

Li Jinnan didn’t say a word . He took a step to his side and closed the distance between them .

Ye Youyou had nothing to say to that . She instinctively moved away to her side . She suddenly felt him holding her waist in place .

In that instant, the man beside her turned his head over . His dark and fathomless eyes gazed deeply into hers . His lips lifted, but it wasn’t exactly a smile either . He said, “You don’t have to worry about whether the gap between us is big . Leave Shen Luo’an to me . The two of you are in a marriage for show anyway . It’s only a matter of time before you get divorced . ”

Li Jinnan tightened his arm around Ye Youyou’s waist and drew her even closer to him .

Ye Youyou could keenly sense the warmth from the man radiating out, and she could smell the scent of cigarettes . She frowned and tried to struggle out of his hold .

Li Jinnan’s hand stayed in place unyieldingly . He said, “If you continue moving, you won’t be going home tonight . ”

Ye Youyou was stunned . Her face immediately blushed . She ground out between her clenched teeth, “You thug!”

Li Jinnan didn’t look at her . He kept his eyes on the cigarette in his hand as he said, “Haven’t you heard that women love bad boys? I don’t mind being a thug as long as it’s to your liking . ”

“It’s not!” Ye Youyou immediately objected .

“It doesn’t matter,” Li Jinnan had expected that reaction . He took a puff of his cigarette . “You’ll like it sooner or later . ”

Ye Youyou inflated her cheeks before asking, “How is what you’re doing meaningful at all?”

“Some people are addicted to alcohol . Some are addicted to tobacco, and some are addicted to drugs . Do you know why?” Li Jinnan looked at her out the corner of his eye .

His eyes were dark like the night sky and held her captive .

Ye Youyou was distracted for a moment before replying, “Because they fell into addiction . ”

Li Jinnan’s bottom eyelids turned up a little . He looked down subtly and gazed at the river surface . “Yeah, because they fell into addiction and didn’t want to resist it . So, they indulged in it . ”

Ye Youyou understood what Li Jinnan meant in that instant .

Because they didn’t want to resist the addiction, they indulged in it . What a beautiful statement . It was something only someone like him would say .

Ye Youyou pursed her lips . She felt a strange stirring in her heart . In an instant, her heartbeat sped up to a dizzying pace .
