The whole family died tragically? The eldest daughter is the most powerful in the capital after her

Zhou Qin was a little embarrassed. She twisted the silk handkerchief between her fingers and forced a smile, "What do you do when you have free time, cousin? Do you like reading or painting?"

"It depends." Song Zhennan's answer was still brief, without even much ups and downs.

Zhou Qin's smile froze. She lowered her head to look at her embroidered shoes, trying to keep the atmosphere from being too cold. "So... is there any place you want to go, cousin? Like a place with mountains and rivers, or a place of historical interest?"

"It doesn't matter." Song Zhennan's tone did not fluctuate at all, and he had no interest in these questions at all.

In the sea of ​​flowers, the sunlight shines on the petals, reflecting warm light.

Lin Ruoqiao and Zhang Mo walked slowly forward while chatting about light topics.

Not far away, Song Zhennan and Zhou Qin slowly approached and happened to see the two people.

He deliberately slowed down his pace and glanced at Zhang Mo coldly. His eyes were full of jealousy, but he wore a decent smile on his face: "Mr. Zhang, Miss Lin, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you two here."

Lin Ruoqiao was slightly stunned, looked up and saw Song Zhennan, her eyes turned cold.

She bowed politely: "Mr. Song."

Zhang Mo looked calm and nodded gently: "Mr. Song, what a coincidence, it seems that everyone likes this Li."

Song Zhennan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, but his eyes deliberately fell on Lin Ruoqiao, and he said meaningfully: "It's a coincidence, Miss Lin and Mr. Zhang seem to get along well. It seems that you two are about to get married, and I wish you all the best in advance."

Zhou Qin stood aside, lowered her head nervously and gently tugged at Song Zhennan's sleeve, saying in a weak voice: "Cousin, what you said is..."

"Nothing." Song Zhennan interrupted her and continued, "My cousin and I are getting married soon, and I hope Miss Lin and Mr. Zhang will come and attend."

Lin Ruoqiao's expression did not change when she heard this. She just nodded slightly and said, "Blessings to you two."

Zhang Mo smiled meaningfully and said calmly, "Since Mr. Song is so sincere, Ruoqiao and I will definitely not be absent."

The atmosphere was a little awkward. When Song Zhennan saw that Lin Ruoqiao and Zhang Mo had no reaction to his provocation, his expression became even uglier.

Zhang Mo said no more. After watching the two leave, he turned to Lin Ruoqiao and said softly, "Let's go back too. Don't let these boring people spoil our fun."

Lin Ruoqiao nodded and followed Zhang Mo away.

Just as Zhang Mo sent Lin Ruoqiao back to her room, Song Zhennan came over angrily. As soon as he entered the room, he asked coldly, "When are you going to tell me that you and Zhang Mo are going to get married?"

Lin Ruoqiao stood up, glanced at him indifferently, and said in a cold tone: "My affairs have nothing to do with you. I hope we will not interfere with each other in the future. It's best to be strangers."

Song Zhennan was stunned, and then he explained anxiously: "Don't be like this! Are you angry because I held Zhou Qin's hand just now? That was forced by my parents. I don't love her at all. I only love you! As long as you are willing to marry me, I will immediately break off my relationship with Zhou Qin!"

Lin Ruoqiao sneered, with disappointment in her eyes: "Did you make a mistake? I'm not angry, I just see through you completely."

Her voice was as cold as frost. "You have been so selfish from the beginning. You thought I would sacrifice everything for your words. Unfortunately, I am not the kind of person you think."

Chapter 380

Song Zhennan's eyes turned red with anxiety, and his tone was full of pleading: "Ruoqiao, I really love you! You can't just abandon me like this! Zhou Qin is just a cover, I can prove my heart to you..."

"That's enough!" Lin Ruoqiao interrupted him directly, her eyes full of coldness, "Song Zhennan, you keep saying you love me, but your love has always been only for yourself, and you have never thought about my feelings. Do you think I will marry someone who only cares about me?"

Song Zhennan's face turned pale, and his lips trembled: "Ruoqiao, I can change, I really can..."

Lin Ruoqiao stood in the middle of the room, her eyes like ice, her voice piercingly cold: "I have made it clear enough, there has never been any so-called emotion between you and me. Don't be so self-indulgent and think that I will waste any thoughts on you."

Her words were like a sharp knife piercing Song Zhennan's heart. His face turned pale and blue, his fingers clenched tightly, and his voice was low and dangerous: "How can you say that? Are the little things between us meaningless in your eyes?"

Lin Ruoqiao did not back down and looked him straight in the eyes: "You are just wishful thinking. I have never had any other thoughts about you, let alone anything. Please stay away from me in the future."

Song Zhennan was completely enraged by her words. He took a step forward, his eyes filled with reluctance and madness, and his tone was full of coercion: "Well, since you are so heartless, don't blame me for being rude! You are mine, and no one can take you away from me!"

As he spoke, he suddenly reached out to grab Lin Ruoqiao's wrist, using such force that Lin Ruoqiao's face turned pale instantly.

She struggled hard, her voice trembling and angry: "Song Zhennan! Let me go! Are you crazy?"

Song Zhennan's eyes became more and more paranoid. He forced her into a corner and said in a hoarse voice, "You must understand today that I will never let go! No matter where you want to go or who you want to be with, it's impossible!"

Fear welled up in Lin Ruoqiao's eyes, and she pushed him frantically, but Song Zhennan's strength was no match for her.

Just when she was in despair, the door was slammed open.

Zhang Mo rushed in breathlessly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, and punched Song Zhennan hard in the face, causing him to stagger back a few steps.

Zhang Mo immediately protected Lin Ruoqiao behind him and shouted coldly: "Song Zhennan, you are simply a beast!"

Song Zhennan covered his face, his eyes full of shock and anger, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth: "Zhang Mo, you dare to hit me!"

"What if I beat you?" Zhang Mo's voice was cold. "You are shameless for treating Ruoqiao like this! Not only will I beat you today, but I will also make you understand that if you dare to touch her again, I will make you pay for it!"

Lin Ruoqiao huddled in Zhang Mo's arms, clutching his clothes tightly with both hands, her whole body shaking.

Zhang Mo looked down at her and immediately softened his voice: "Don't be afraid, he won't dare to hurt you again with me here."

Lin Ruoqiao's tears immediately burst out, and she choked up and said, "Thank you... It's really terrible."

Zhang Mo raised his hand and patted her gently: "It's okay, I won't let anyone bully you again."

Song Zhennan looked at the intimacy between the two, his face full of disbelief and anger.

He pointed at Zhang Mo and said through gritted teeth: "You actually chose him? Don't you really care about me at all?"

Lin Ruoqiao slowly raised her head from Zhang Mo's arms and looked at Song Zhennan with cold eyes: "Care about you? You are just an episode in my life. I don't have to sacrifice my happiness for you. What happened today made me understand that you are not worth it at all."
