All she wanted was to be able to watch him even if she could only do so at a distance away.
However, she was afraid that she would cause him more hurt and harm if she stayed with him.
There’s also Hanhan, who would be discovered…
Xia Changyue bit her lips and grabbed the blanket at her sides tightly.
The ambiance in the room became ominous immediately when she said that.
There was a hint of scary yet seductive feel in the air.
Yan Chengchi turned around with menace emanating from his well-built body.
He stared at Xia Changyue, who bowed her head in front of him, with a sinister gaze!
She wanted to leave him because he had beat up An Chenxu?
If she did love An Chenxu so much, why didn’t she stay with him for the past four years?
Was it because the Xia Family went bankrupt, and the An Family began to look down on her. Thus, she lost her prospects to marry into a wealthy family?
Yan Chengchi clenched his fists tightly.
His perfect face was gloomy, and he hissed, “Do you want to say that again?”
“…”
Xia Changyue’s body stiffened. She choked on her words the moment she met his black eyes.
She only managed to speak softly after hesitating for a few seconds.
“I only agree to move in because of the contract’s issue, but I cannot stay here forever. You will be getting married sooner or later, and all I want to know is when can I leave.”
If possible, she hoped to leave now.
However, she didn’t dare say it out loud since she was afraid that Yan Chengchi would be enraged. Thus, she could only hint from another point of view.
She wanted him to agree to let her go, but why did her heart ache once she said that?
The thought of another woman becoming his wife and taking over the most crucial position in his life made her heart felt heavy.
By then, he would have most likely forgotten all about her…
Xia Changyue had broken her lips, and she could taste the blood amidst the pain.
“Are you expecting me to marry you?”
Yan Chengchi’s eyes flickered, and he raised his eyebrows coldly.
He looked at Xia Changyue with an element of scrutiny.
She would not forget him for An Chenxu. She was leaving him because she was worried that he would get married.
Did she still care for him in her heart, or was this just another elaborate lie that she made up so she could leave him and live with An Chenxu forever?
“I am not…”
“It’s best that you don’t,” Yan Chengchi interrupted her coldly. He stepped forward, grabbed her chin, and forced her to look up.
He stared at her with a gaze as cold as an icicle and emphasized every single word.
“I would never marry a woman like you in this lifetime!”
“…”
Xia Changyue’s face turned pale immediately. Her lips shivered as she attempted to speak, but she didn’t say a single word eventually.
She looked at him as he pushed her aside and walked out of the room.
The tears that she had been holding back flowed out of her eyes instantly.
She had wanted to leave, but her heart was torn to shreds when she heard her say that he would never marry her.
Did he remember that he ever said he would never marry any other woman other than her in this lifetime…
Xia Changyue fell back onto the bed. Her tiny body was huddled up, and she hugged herself tightly.
She maintained this posture and stared at the ceiling until it was dawn.

The next day.
She went to the production unit early in the morning.
She held the uncompleted script in her arms and hovered at the threshold of the meeting room. She didn’t know how to explain it to the Director.
“Why are you still standing here, Scriptwriter Xia? The Director is expecting you.”
“I am going in now.”
Xia Changyue’s face turned white. She bit her lips, braced herself for the inevitable, and walked into the meeting room.
